𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧, 𝐈 𝐌𝐞𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮 by Aurorawrrites

"You know," Sage murmurs against my neck, his voice a little bashful, "my sister says hugs are the fastest way to make someone feel better." I let out a huff of breath and open my mouth to respond. But before I can reply, he adds softly. "You're one of the most amazing people I know. And no one, absolutely no one, should ever make you feel otherwise." I let my eyes close for a second, letting that settle in a place I didn't even realise had been empty. "Okay," I say quietly, pulling back just enough to see his face and then sinking deeper into his warmth, my hands curling into his jacket, clutching like I'm afraid he'll vanish if I let go. ────── ✦ She wasn't looking for love, just a little peace. He was not planning to fall, but when he met her, he realised, some falls don't hurt-they heal. ✦ ────── If you are a reader like me, someone who loves comfort books, pure love stories, and heathy relationships that feel real and safe then maybe this book is just perfect for you 🍂

Somebody Like You by LethalDreamer01

Step one: graduate. Step two: accidentally sleep with your best friend. Step three: get trapped working summer camp together because your other best friend has no sense of boundaries. Now Enya and Maddie are sharing a cabin, pretending nothing happened, and doing a terrible job at it. It's hot. It's messy. It's gay. * * * The summer before college was supposed to be chill; sunburns, iced lattes, maybe a mild existential crisis. But when Skylar signs everyone up to be counselors at a middle school camp, Enya and Maddie find themselves trapped in a mosquito-infested nightmare... together. One small problem: They may or may not have ACCIDENTALLY hooked up after graduation. And Maddie is convinced Enya planned the whole thing. Between canoe races gone wrong, s'mores that end in arguments, and bunkhouse confessions they swore would never happen again, both girls are about to learn that feelings aren't something you can logic your way out of-or yell your way past. Because sometimes the person who drives you craziest... is the one who feels like home.

Something blossoming by DivineCinn

(UNEDITED) Him: And she had me then, tangled in her integrate web, I wanted to find out more about her, everything about her. Thaw the iced glaze over her eyes, melt to cold walls around her with my touch, my attention. Her: I could see the sunshine though the water like an oil painting. Breathtaking. I reached my arm up, as if to touch it, only to meet more water. I frowned. Staying there till my lungs burned, how easy would it be. To just stay here, at the bottom of this creek. Staring at the oil painted sun until my body finally gave up trying to find air. I would just drift away with the water. No one here. No one was around. How peaceful. How fitting to end my violent story with the soft ripples of this creek. -------------------------- Mature themes Both broken. Both with dark pasts. Can they overcome the demons together?
