Hazel lives quietly — coding, painting, and existing in the soft calm she’s always known. She’s the kind of girl who carries peace in her pockets, speaks gently, and listens like it’s an art form. Everyone at ChromeArts International School adores her quiet gravity — but no one truly knows her.

Then there’s Eva— tall, loud, magnetic. The girl who lights up every hallway, who everyone wants to be near. The face of school events, effortlessly confident and beloved. She’s noise and sunshine, brightness and movement — everything Hazel avoids.

They shouldn’t fit.
But somehow, they start to.

When Eva starts taking a strange, subtle interest in Hazel, she calls it curiosity — just fascination, nothing more. After all, Eva’s straight. And Hazel? Probably uninterested in anyone at all. But quiet has a way of echoing, and soon Eva finds herself seeking Hazel’s presence like air — confused, protective, flustered, and unable to look away.

Hazel doesn’t chase. Eva never had to.
Until now.

From shared coding sessions and quiet piano rooms to unexpected jealousy, awkward realizations, and unspoken tenderness — their story unfolds slowly, like light filtering through rain. Two opposites — a black cat and a golden retriever — learning to soften, grow, and love in the ways only they could for each other.

Because Hazel only lets the world in when it’s Eva.
And Eva only quiets down when it’s Hazel.

In the face of adversity, the girl embraced her true beauty, including the captivating shade of her piercing navy blue eyes. She refused to let the taunts and bullying diminish her self-worth. Instead, she took solace in the shimmering depths of her gaze, a reminder of her uniqueness and strength. With each defiant stare, she silently challenged her tormentors, letting them know that their cruelty could not pierce the shield of her unyielding spirit. And as she faced the world with her head held high, her eyes sparkled like ocean, a reflection of the radiant beauty that resided within her. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ So-jung's heart pounded as she answered the distant, chilling voice. "Hello? Is someone there?" The Mysterious soft voice cames out like a whisper"Shhh, don't be scared, So-jung. I've been watching you for quite some time now." She struggles but asked, "Who... who are you? Why have you been watching me?" A chuckle escaped. "Ah, names are just nothing, my dear. But what matters is that I know everything about you, So-jung. Your deepest fears, your darkest secrets... everything." So-jung's fear intensified. "This isn't funny. Are you some sort of stalker?" The Mysterious Figure's mocking tone penetrated the room. "Stalker? No, my dear. I'm much more than that. I'm the shadow in your nightmares, the whisper in your ear when you're alone." "H-how do you know these things? This can't be possible!" The figure chuckled once again . "Oh, So-jung, you underestimate the power of observation. I've seen you when you thought no one was watching. Your are so awesome!." She sighs "Please, leave me alone! I don't want this. I don't want you in my life." The Mysterious voice turned cold."Oh, but So-jung, you always wanted to be noticed, didn't you? Well, now you have my attention. Aren't you grateful?.....My dear" STARTED: 01/23/24 WRITTEN ENDED: 02/10/2024 ENDED: 03/30/2024 2024@ncdcherry

Meet Kitty Proud, a wallflower who prefers to blend into her background. Ever since her mom died, she had receded into a shell, emotionally blocking herself from everyone. Meet Wesley Bane, who doesn't seem to understand 'walls'. He is cocky, arrogant and finds great pleasure in getting on Kitty's nerves. But sometimes when someone has walls as thick as Kitty's there needs to be a conceited jerk to shake her world and make her live again. - "I like a bit of danger," Wes whispered, his grey eyes shining. "Yeah?" I said in a flat tone. "Then you have nothing to do with me." "It's the quiet girls that are the kinky ones," he winked. I blanched, but tried to keep my cool, "And it's guys like you who're man-whores." He opened his mouth to say something but I quickly cut him off, "Well, if you don't mind, could you kindly remove your hand?" I looked pointedly at his hand. His eyes had a certain glint to them as he winked at me before he squeezed his hand. The cap sprang off, hitting my face as coffee spilled over my hands. I shrieked as the hot coffee scalded my hand, effectively causing me to drop the cup. I was glad to see that I dropped it on Wes' shoes though, causing it to satisfyingly splatter onto his jeans. "What the hell?" he shrieked, jumping back. "Don't 'what the hell' me!" I shouted at him. "What is your problem, Bane?!" "Well, you see, there's coffee on my shoes now," he frowned. "They were expensive too, you know." I huffed in irritation, fuming, "If only money could buy decency."

"Guys, I got another note," I say as I sit down at lunch. Vanessa and Xander were here but Hazel was missing. "Where's Hazel?" I question, eyeing her empty seat. "Out with Adam today, it's Friday," Xander says whilst I munch on my sandwich. "Did you say you got another note?" He asks and I hold my finger up and try to swallow my food as quickly I can so I can speak again. "Yeah, this one says, 'You look so beautiful in blue, I wish I could say this in person,' I really want to know who's playing this prank," I say and my eyes fall to the only prankster in Waterstone Academy, Sebastein. "I don't think it is Sebastien, he loves attention and this doesn't scream attention," Vanessa says as my eyes land on him. But my eyes move from Sebastien quickly to the hottest man in Waterstone, Vincent. He has been bugging me for a week, trying to talk to me and he even asked me to come to Logan's party on the weekend. My eyes must have been drilling holes into his face because he turns in my directions. I quickly turn back to Xander and Vanessa who were talking about their Art projects. "Okay, so if not Sebastien then who?" I voice my thoughts out loud. "Maybe you have a secret admirer," Xander says in all seriousness and I burst out laughing. My laugh attracts some attention because 1) it was loud, 2) I snorted. "Yeah right," I say once I sober up. *** A secret admirer. Everyone wishes they had one but not Amara. Her secret admirer has been torturing her ex-bullies and even though that's what she wanted before, now all she wants is for it to stop. She doesn't want anyone getting hurt because of her, she knows how that feels and she doesn't wish that on anyone. A hot boy and a secret admirer, Amara needs to figure out who her secret admirer before someone gets seriously hurt or even worse, killed.

Kris Emerson is counting down the days-two months left of high school, and she's barely keeping it together. She's a storm wrapped in silence, a girl known for skipping class, snapping back, and shutting down. Teachers have given up. Her aunt has one foot out the door. The world expects nothing from her-and she's learned to expect even less in return. Then comes Miss Swan. The new English teacher. Mysterious. Elegant. Out of place. She speaks with a quiet intensity that disarms the room, and for reasons Kris can't explain, she doesn't look away from her like everyone else does. Instead, she lingers. Watches. Listens. At first, Kris doesn't trust her. But slowly, something shifts. The tension in her chest loosens when Miss Swan is near. Their conversations stretch past the bell. Glances last longer than they should. What starts as curiosity becomes something deeper-something charged. And Kris begins to feel it. The way Miss Swan sees her. Not like a student. Not like a burden. But like something fragile, and dangerous, and worth holding onto. Behind Miss Swan's composed smile, though, is a shadow she can't quite hide. There's something in her past-something dark. Something that follows her like a whisper through the halls. A taunting past she's buried deep, but not deep enough. Kris doesn't know what it is, only that it's there. And that it's tied to the flicker of pain behind Miss Swan's eyes. As their connection intensifies, the lines begin to blur. Miss Swan grows distant, then too close. Careful, then too vulnerable. Kris knows something is wrong. She feels the weight of it every time Miss Swan looks at her like she's the only person in the world-and the last person she should ever be near. Because whatever is haunting Miss Swan... it's creeping closer. And whatever she feels for Kris-it's forbidden. Unspoken. But it's there. And now, Kris is tangled in it-unable to pull back, unwilling to let go.

Lara has always lived in the shadows, convinced she isn't enough. The world feels overwhelmingly loud, too vivid, and far too big for someone like her. She hides from attention, avoids risks, and sees herself through a lens of self-doubt, her flaws magnified and her worth invisible. Life in the background feels safer, even if it means missing out on connection and joy. When a group project pairs her with Nathan, her confident and charismatic classmate, Lara's carefully guarded world begins to shift. Nathan exudes ease and charm, surrounded by friends whose laughter and effortless connection make her feel even more out of place. Yet, his quiet kindness and surprising attentiveness draw her in, challenging her belief that she doesn't belong. For the first time, Lara begins to wonder if maybe, just maybe, she's not as invisible as she thought. As she spends more time with Nathan and his friends, Lara slowly starts to open up. Their warmth chips away at her defenses, but it also forces her to confront her fears. She struggles with feelings of inadequacy and questions whether she's truly deserving of the attention and affection she's receiving. Her growing feelings for Nathan only intensify this internal conflict-can someone like him really see her as worthy, and more importantly, can she see herself that way? Encouraged by her steadfast best friend Bea and Nathan's quiet support, Lara begins the painful but necessary journey toward self-acceptance. It's a battle fought not against others but within herself. She starts to realize that her worth isn't defined by perfection or others' opinions but by embracing who she truly is. Lara's story is one of identity, courage, and breaking free from self-imposed limitations. It's about stepping out of the shadows and discovering that the hardest battles often lead to the brightest transformations. Will she claim her place in the world or retreat to the safety of the background?

A Dress, A Glance and Him

43 parts Complete Mature

Some silences speak louder than love confessions. Lune didn't wear dresses. Endri didn't ask questions. Until one morning changed both. Set in the quiet corridors and shadowed classrooms of a university , when Lune shows up in a black dress she wouldn't normally wear, and Endri crosses the street just to walk beside her, something shifts. What starts as casual teasing and coffee turns into something heavier-silent glances across classrooms, prose that sounds too personal, bruises that don't have stories, and a past that doesn't want to stay buried. It's about the unspoken things. The mornings that mean more than they should. The friend you never meant to fall into. And the distance you keep... just to feel safe. A soft, emotional slow-burn about friendship that might be something more-if only someone were brave enough to say it.
