happiness love maine ocean short story

Beautiful cover made by @egotastic
Adam wants to think he's happy. With his fiance. With his busy city life. With his fake friends and job he couldn't care less about. But a visit to Maine opens his eyes when he meets Rory and is shown a way of life much more suited to him. One that he might actually be able to enjoy, but he has to give something up in order to truly be happy.

If only it was an Illusion! by Aafrynn

"you're no one to me", his words echoed in my ears but what was it all when he kissed me; merely an illusion? It felt so real and lively. "...and just so you know, you're not allowed to leave this job until or before 6 months", he flung the contract papers in the air. I had signed the papers, the terms and conditions clearly meant that I was supposed to work for his company and had no right to leave it until his consent. "Leave my cabin for now", he ordered as he turned behind. ********** Amanda Waters is your typical College student who happens to face a lot of financial difficulties and as a result, is made to earn a living. She's blunt, She's sensitive but she is also accompanied by two of her best friends in this story: Gina Sullivan and Francis Rutherfold. The enterprise which she works in is different, very different. In fact, the 'CEO' is not just another Happy go lucky male lead of the company. Aaron Reynolds- Rude, Arrogant, Harsh, and Stubborn. He's what they call an eccedentesiast. They say that a person who defines negative adjectives has a lot more inside them, the darkness in that person may overrule all the Positiveness. Well, with Aaron, it's hard to say. But...What if Amanda already had a face-off with 'The CEO' before working in his firm? What if she had already drawn a thick line of hate? What if egos of the same level collide? What then? True Love? More like an illusion! An illusion that poses a life threat. An illusion with the ability to make you believe in non-existent things such as; fairies, demons, fate, and even destiny! Ironic is it not? What we as humans happen to rely on.

Always And Forever Till Infinity by IvyDIA

We are moving and I didn't knew about it until now.... "You all are coming with us too. Sophie got enrolled in Architecture and Designing college of Los Angeles and Liam will finish his school there." She lays out her plan and no one thought what I would do if I leave everything behind here and I am not included here again. "Ok so everything is already planned. Sophie got enrolled in the college already, dad has set his business and I get to know this now." I laugh humorlessly pushing away my plate . "what about me mom? Dad?" I look at them for an answer. "What about my life here? My career? My plans about life here? You didn't thought to tell me before taking decision on my behalf?" "I never had a courage to ask before but, why do you both hate me so much? What have I done to always get your hatred?" I ask as the tears threaten my eyes but I won't allow them to leave my eyes. Ivy has craved for love and attention her entire life and Tyler comes into her life and sweeps her off her feet. He fills her life with all the happiness and love she deserves. She is a shy, innocent and a nerd. He is the most handsome boy of the college whom everyone knows. She likes to read books and doesn't like to be noticed. He is a photographer and loves adventure. They are polar opposites but fate brings them together. Most of the people she had close to her heart left her and Tyler is the only one she has left. Will he stay? How will she deal with the losses she has faced? ------------------------------------------- #1 - bakery (28/07/2022) Started on- September 25 , 2020

After All This Time (Steddie) by banished_artcat

Bless you hellichk.tumblr.com for this absolutely lovely cover I want to print and frame it and keep it forever. I DO NOT take any credit for their art. Steve(21) Hasn't had a chance to leave this awful place. He has stayed around for the kids, wanting nothing more to be there for each one's graduation. Confused. Lonely. Depression has really started to hit in the last couple of years after all of the tragic losses to the upsidedown. Nearly losing everything and everyone he's cared for and loved. Most everyone has gotten their chance to escape, Nancy and Jonathan moved to California after graduation. Robin's off at college. Until he realizes maybe he's not so alone here, sparking a true friendship with the most unlikely person, Eddie Munson. Eddie(22) hasn't been able to get out of this town either after swearing he would get the hell out of here many years ago. The kids are all graduating this year, which will most likely end up giving the two now men, no reason to stick around anymore. But what will happen to the two friends when Steve realizes the feelings he's thought for so long to just be a platonic friendship have always been a little more? I do not own rights to the ST characters or themes but I do own rights to my own storyline. I will be using pictures from artists that I find as the art for each chapter. I don't think I could draw enough to cover a whole book so pls don't credit me for those either. Thx. 🙏 ~🖤K

Angelic || Adam x Lute by p1nk_l1ghts

This story takes place before Adam died, the canon plot will not be the main point of this story. This is mostly focusing on the bond between Adam and Lute. So basically just a normal Adam x Lute Fancfic. Contains vile language, traumatic scenarios, maybe smut, and other stuff typical shown in Hazbin Hotel but you'll already know that if you watched the show! Please excuse any typos or grammar mistakes, English is not my first language. The fanart that I use as a Cover does not belong to me. In general all the characters in this story do not belong to me but to Vivziepop. __________________________ミ★ #1 - guitarspear (15. September. 2024) #1 - #adamxlute (08.

WE SHOULD STOP NOW by EmilLock

After fleeing from her scumbag ex and quitting college over three years ago Joanie Collins has now rebuilt her life running a little bakery back in her hometown. Happy to be alone rather than being hurt again, Joanie has built up high ice walls to protect her fragile heart and has sworn off all men. That is until troubled playboy millionaire Caleb Maverick returns home after being abroad for two years and they're forced to work together. Can Caleb melt this Ice queens heart and find peace for himself? ----------- "And what about me? Was it just a crush you had on me?" he says in a raspy hushed voice that makes me take a big gulp. I lean forward so I'm now closer also to Caleb and look him straight in the eyes. If we're going to be honest... then let's do this. "Your Caleb Maverick, everyone had a crush on you. The fact you were so oblivious to all the attention you got just added to your boyish charm. The girls at our school wanted one night with Ethan but they all wanted to settle down and marry you." I say honestly and Caleb actually looks surprised. He sits back in his chair looking genuinely puzzled, "That's not...that's not how I remember high school." He mutters before his eyes fix back onto me. "I remember being second best to Ethan for everything. Sports, grades, girls, Mia...you." he grits. ---------------------- The Sequel to 'More than just Neighbours'. I'd recommend reading that book first for these characters backstory x

Waves of Fate by HariJayanth

Emma Clarke, a dedicated architect from New York City, is assigned to Harbor Creek, a sleepy beach town, to construct an environmentally friendly hotel. Unfortunately her whole life up until now has been centered around her career, which in turn has left her with no time for love or self examination. Harbor Creek is supposed to be just another project, but it soon proves to be much more. In Harbor Creek, Emma meets Nate Harper, a former travel photographer who now runs his family's bed-and-breakfast after a personal tragedy. Nate is happy with his small, peaceful life in the small town and does not want anything to do with the hotel project that emma has been working on. Nate sees the project as an intrusion on the quaintness and tranquility of Harbor Creek, and he isn't afraid to voice those sentiments. Although they are complete opposites, emma is attracted to nate's relaxed, and easy going attitude. His presence and the tranquility of the town begin to chip away at the fast-paced, career-driven persona she's built over the years. The longer she is in harbor creek, the more her priorities change.

Both face their own emotional battles-Emma, deciding if love and personal happiness are worth sacrificing her career for, and Nate, wrestling with the idea of moving on from his past. Their blossoming relationship is put to the test with these individual hardships, the hotel looming over head, and the emotional barriers they've both constructed. While dealing with their fears, Harbor Creek serves as the setting for a love story involving healing, self-discovery, and the strength of moving on. Will emma gamble her career for thru happiness? Is Nate going to be able to look into the future with Emma and find it in his heart to let go of the past?

Things To Say Before I Go by storyteller2196

Jess Haynes has it all (or so she thinks). She's got a boyfriend of four years, a house in Lower Manhattan that she really loves, a stable job that may not be the most interesting in the world, but it pays the bills, and she's living and breathing. But when things slowly start to fall apart in her "perfect" world, Jess realizes she was never really happy to begin with. Nate King is a completely different story. He lives in a pretty basic apartment with his best friend, Mark. He tried tons of jobs out of college, but nothing stuck. Now, he spends every day going to the gym, eating and watching television, same shit, different day. And he's tired of it. He wants something new in his life, something exciting. When Nate finally gets a job on the tenth floor of a legal company, a simple glance out the window could lead to the very the both of them are looking for.
