Crescendo || Schrucy Fanfic AGED UP!
!! FINISHED !! Still reviewing each chapter for correction before publishing them. Schroeder always believed that music was his one true love-until Lucy van Pelt crashed into his life, loud, stubborn, and impossible to ignore. She was his greatest distraction, his biggest frustration, and the only person who ever made him feel something beyond the notes on his piano. Years later, he has everything he ever dreamed of: sold-out concerts, worldwide recognition, and the chance to play alongside legends. But no amount of success can drown out the echoes of what he left behind. When a chance reunion forces him to face Lucy once more, old wounds reopen, and unspoken words hang between them like an unresolved chord. She's different now-bolder, more distant, and utterly indifferent to the boy who once consumed her world. As their paths intertwine in ways neither of them expected, Schroeder is forced to confront the truth he spent years running from: was his dream worth losing her? And if the music never stopped between them, is it too late to play one final song?Complete
