You Remind Me Of Someone I Used To Know
Lorelei hasn't spoken to Atlas since the summer before high school-the summer everything fell apart without either of them saying why. Now, halfway through sophomore year, she finds him back at the creek where they used to play as kids. It's awkward. Unexpected. Quiet in a way that feels like it used to be something louder. They try to move on. But when a school project forces them together, the past doesn't stay buried for long. Not the memories, not the silences, and definitely not the things they left unsaid. Some stories don't begin with falling in love. Some begin with what happens after everything breaks-and what might still be left to salvageComplete
Falling Between Deadlines
In the bustling halls of Riverside University, two students couldn't be more different. Ava Reyes, a journalism major known for her soft heart and sharp words, believes in truth, empathy, and good coffee. Liam Cruz, a perfectionist business major, believes in results, logic, and winning especially when it comes to the annual campus writing competition. They've clashed since freshman year her messy notes against his color-coded spreadsheets, her warmth against his cool detachment. When fate (and a meddling professor) pairs them for the university's biggest creative project, sparks fly and not the friendly kind. But deadlines have a way of forcing people together. Between late-night coffee runs, heated arguments, and unexpected laughter, Ava and Liam begin to realize: maybe love doesn't start with butterflies. Maybe it starts with irritation, shared coffee cups, and the quiet realization that you've stopped trying to win.

🔞 18+ only - contains heartbreak, obsession, and slow-burn intimacy. -------------------- "How could I ever trust someone again when the world had already let me down?" I whispered to myself, standing at the edge of the city, my bag packed with everything I had left. My heart ached for a future that seemed uncertain, one where love felt impossible. But that was before I met him. Before Nathan Anderson, the boy who would challenge everything I thought I knew about myself." -------------- Pia has always kept her heart guarded, shaped by the scars of her past. Forced to leave behind a small town and a life full of struggles, she's now in a world where everything feels foreign-luxury, expectations, and the constant pressure to succeed. At 17, she's determined to prove that she can make it on her own, even if it means keeping everyone at arm's length. Nathan is everything Pia isn't popular, confident, and effortlessly charming. At 17, he's the star of his school, his future already planned out by a life of privilege. Yet there's something about Pia that intrigues him, something that makes him want to know her beyond the walls she's built around herself. The more he observes her, the more he feels drawn to a side of her he can't quite understand. As their paths cross, emotions stir, and what started as a simple connection becomes a tangled web of uncertainty. Can Pia open up to someone who seems to have everything, or will her past keep her from embracing the future? And for Nathan, can he break through her defenses, or will his own fears stand in the way?

FOCUS [BXB]
Like a bolt of lightning, this stupid boy appeared in my life. First day of summer break between first and second grade, he just appeared- standing on my porch like he was born there. Straight brown hair, wide dark eyes and a fresh sunburn across his cheeks. He was already talking before I even opened the door. I don't know how it happened but it's been ten years. And he's still here. Talking, whether or not I'm listening. Laughing, even if no one else is. He's still too quick- racing around the world like he's scared he's going to miss it. He's gotten taller...much taller. His hair is a little longer, a little wavier, but under the light it still looks the same golden brown it did when we were nine. And now, finally, he was a high school graduate. We both were. Like a bolt of lightning he appeared and like the sun he refused to disappear. _____________________________________________ I fell asleep with my chin pointed at him, the outline of his face being the last thing I saw. How was I supposed to do this? It had always been difficult, hiding this secret, keeping him close. But now, my focus was starting to slip. I couldn't see anything but his lips, his hands, his smile. I couldn't hear anything but my name in his mouth, his jagged breaths and that loud laugh. How am I supposed to be okay with this? How am I supposed to focus on anything other than him? #1- slowburn- 11.10.25🥇 #1- friends to lovers- 11.01.25🥇 #1- fluffandsmut- 11.02.25🥇 #1- college- 11.06.25🥇 #1- best friends- 11.12.25🥇 #1- teammates- 12.04.25 🥇 #1- college roommates- 12.30.25🥇 #1- mental health- 01.02.2026 🥇 #1- gay love- 01.02.2026 🥇 #2- roommates- 12.18.25🥈 #3- bxblove- 11.30.25🥉 #4- boyxboy- 11.01.25 #4- lgbt- 11.15.25 #14- boyxboyromance- 12.15.25 #22- basketball- 12.15.25Complete
Extra Credit
"Why do you always avoid my questions?" "I'm not, it's just that there's nothing to say. Who would ever want to date someone they can't even talk to? It's not rocket science. My eyes are weird, and people get tired of me eventually. There's your one-page essay. Now please don't snow me to death .-." "What? All that you just said is a lie. And I should snow you to death for even saying that! I would definitely date you."
