Almost Forever
Crystal thought she buried that part of her life. The memories. The friendship. The love she never really got over. But some people don't stay in the past... no matter how hard you try to leave them there. When old bonds resurface and unresolved feelings come rushing back, Crystal is forced to face everything she ran from - the history, the heartbreak, and the one connection that always felt like home. Because some loves don't end. They linger. They wait. And sometimes forever doesn't disappear... It just becomes almost.
Right On Time
sometimes love doesn't come when you expect it - it comes right on time.
MERCHANDISE || ZATIMA
In a city that never slows down, love doesn't come easy-it comes with a price. Crystal thought moving to New York would be her fresh start. With nothing but her father's inheritance, raw talent, and a dream of becoming a designer, she's determined to build a life that's hers. No distractions. No detours. Just success. But New York has a way of rewriting plans. Devale is the life of every party-the man everyone knows, the one everyone watches. In Brooklyn, they call him *The Party King*. Nights blur into mornings, women come and go, and commitment? That's never been his style. He's built his name off the nightlife... and he has no intention of slowing down. Until Crystal. She's different-focused, unbothered, and completely unimpressed by his reputation. What starts as curiosity quickly turns into something neither of them expected. But when two worlds collide-one chasing dreams, the other running from reality-something is bound to break. Because Crystal isn't built for his chaos... and Devale isn't ready for her kind of love. In a city full of lights, temptation, and secrets, they'll have to decide- is this just another moment... or something worth risking everything for?
Taylor's branching out/ 9-1-1
Zachary and Fatima want to branch out beyond Atlanta because Zachary feels stagnant after 10 years in Atlanta's firehouse and wanted a change of scenery so a conversation needed to be had. Let's see how the Taylor's navigate this new scenery. How do you think the Taylor's are going to manage getting a family of 12 to the West Coast with ease? I wanted to create a story that combines two of my favorite shows and it sounded great in my head so hopefully I do this justice since this is my first fanfiction
