[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. (Still working on the description, I don't know what I'm doing.)

Quinn Taylor has made a career out of looking calm. On the ice, she's America's favorite kind of pressure-proof-bright smile, steady answers, the skater everyone wants to root for. Off the ice, she's an only child with a perfectionist's brain and a habit of carrying too much alone. The cameras love her. The country expects her. And the one place she can't afford to fall apart is the one place she's dreamed of since she was little. The Olympics. Macklin Celebrini has always made things feel lighter. He was the new kid at a Northern California rink at twelve-Canadian, polite, a little lost-until Quinn decided he was hers to keep. He became her best friend in the cold air and early mornings, the person who could make her laugh mid-breakdown and never ask her to perform for him. Then life did what life does: seasons changed, schedules got brutal, distance widened, and the kind of friendship that felt unbreakable turned into occasional texts and quiet missing. Now they're both back where the world is loudest. At the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics, Quinn is chasing the skate of her life for Team USA. Mack is carrying his own weight for Team Canada hockey. When reporters find out they grew up together, the story writes itself-childhood friends reunited, smiles caught on camera, a thousand strangers deciding what they are to each other. The only problem is... the strangers aren't entirely wrong. Between past chapters at a small California rink and present days in the Olympic Village, Quinn and Mack have to figure out what they really meant to each other then-and what they're allowed to be now, with medals on the line and the whole world watching. Because it's one thing to love someone quietly from a distance. It's another to have them show up in your life again and make everything feel possible.
