[Eren x OC] [College AU] [Mature Themes]
Blake moves to Stohess to start over.
College. Independence. A life far from her hometown, far from the chaos of her parents, far from the version of herself she has been afraid to confront.
She has spent years learning to survive: good grades, quiet corners, practiced smiles, staying out of trouble, and avoiding becoming like the people who raised her. Always exhausted, always careful, she has learned to carry herself like a shield.
Now in her senior year, she should be focused on one last stretch: surviving and earning her degree. But survival becomes complicated when someone finally notices her, and the walls she has built around herself start to crumble.
He does not just notice her. He sees who she really is, not the persona she has perfected at her job.
College quickly becomes more than classes, paychecks, and staying safe. It is temptation, chaos, and the thrill of finally living and having fun. It is making the dumb, reckless memories she has always longed for.
And messy. Full of push and pull, walls and sparks, heartbreak and laughter. But in the chaos, there is healing-learning to face the past, to trust, and to finally let someone in.
Sometimes the right person noticing you can turn everything upside down. Sometimes that mess is exactly what you need.
