***** "Just remember that right now, someone is getting their heart broken, someone is falling in love, and somewhere a black hole is probably sucking up an entire planet...they can do that right? Suck up entire planets? Anyway, my point is, somewhere in this infinite universe something beyond us is happening." "I think I know that person who's falling in love right now," he paused leaning in close. "I love you." "Thanks." Fuck, well that probably wasn't the most romantic thing to respond with at the moment. ***** Orion lives his life in fast forward. He's just waiting for the next four years of his life to pass by so he can get on with what he's really supposed to be doing with his life. The meaningful part, the part that truly defines a person. Then he meets Parker, and his world stops. When Parker left for college she finally felt ready. Ready to have fun, ready to see the world, and ready for the next step of her future. As if the simple black and white painting she called her life was ready to be filled with the brightest colors. Then she meets Orion, and that painting turns into a sculpture. And this is only one story in this infinite universe. "But there is so much beyond us, there are an infinite number of possibilities, why should we go through with this one?" "I mean I guess we don't have to, but couldn't that be kinda nice?" "Parker cant see a foot past her current situation" "Orion tramples over anything in front of him, like a cat. Can only see whats like 10 inches ahead, but in this case its 10 years". I wonder if this'll shape up to be a Shakespearian tragedy or comedy.

Beth thinks a casual encounter with a stranger at a party is a one-time thing, but he seems to have other plans. She is a brilliant young mathematics professor, and he turns out to be one of her students. Sleeping with him is against her college's rules, and may have a grave professional cost, but Beth is attracted enough to Ethan that she simply doesn't care. She breaks the rules, and sees him again, and begins to realize that she has become too lost in her work and forgotten how wonderful such moments can be. No-one is getting hurt, she thinks, and no harm is being done, so she sees no reason not to have her fun. Unfortunately, Beth is also in a long-term, long-distance, very off and on relationship that suddenly turns out to be on again. Robert is moving to be near her, to live with her, and although she doesn't want to give up sex with Ethan, she owes Robert something too. She can’t simply tell Robert they are done. She decides to be selfish and keep everything secret. Because she wants to put herself first, and because what Robert doesn't know won't hurt him, and because by keeping secrets she may, in the end, hurt everyone less. But mostly because she still wants Ethan, and doesn't seem to be able to make herself stop. One Plus Two Minus One is a novel of lust and desire, of the sensuality and confusion of meeting someone new, of the chaos and harm that secrets can cause, of avoiding choices, and making choices, and of foolishly hoping things will work out for the best. ====== I think Wattpad's R18 filters struck again. This has ten chapters, but the early ones all have padlocks and are marked private. So yeah, hopefully you can see them. And also, just to point this out again, that it's being blocked also means it's rude too, so don't look unless you're sure.
