THE THINGS WE CALL LOVE

Book One of The Things We Call Love Trilogy
by rynmoon

She never planned to fall for a woman.

Especially not for her.

It started with friendship-the kind that felt harmless. The teasing, the stolen glances, the late-night conversations, the little things that somehow became important. They were comfortable. They were close. And for a while, she convinced herself that was all it was.

Until friendship started feeling like something more.

But some feelings arrive at the wrong time, and some people are already living lives where there is no space for you.

She knows she shouldn't hope.
She knows she shouldn't read too much into every smile, every touch, every "girl" whispered between them.

But how do you stop loving someone when they never asked you to?

As their friendship blurs the line between platonic and romantic, she is forced to confront a question she has been avoiding all along:

What do you call a love that was never meant to be yours?

Because sometimes, love doesn't come with a relationship.
Sometimes it comes as a friendship you can't let go of.
Sometimes it looks like waiting.
Sometimes it looks like choosing someone who can never choose you back.

And sometimes, the hardest thing about loving someone...

is accepting that your feelings can be real without your relationship ever becoming real.

The Things We Call Love is a story about first sapphic love, blurred boundaries, unrequited feelings, friendship, emotional attachment, and the painful realization that not every person you love is meant to stay.

Because before she learns how to choose the right kind of love-

she first has to learn what love isn't.
