"Every now and then the stars align,
Boy and girl meet by the great design..."
- Lucky Ones, Lana Del Rey
You are the peace I seek in my sadness;
You are the stars in all my senses.
BROOKLYN is all about parties and getting wasted, she considers this the only way to get the grief out of her system. But she's secretly in love with the sky and everything living on the canvas of nature, she used to write endless little poems about it. But now, hiding her heart away is the only thing she thinks she does best.
DERL the loner, the freak, the weirdo, the shy kid with dark hair and big blue eyes-only has eyes for the sky and stars. People always say he's a mystery but that's not quite true. Excellent music taste is one undeniable charm about this "mysterious" boy, along with his dope talent of painting the immortals of life on mortal canvases.
When sparks between the unlikely pair drag them out of their comfort zones, it's left to them to decide which weighs more in the spectacular relationship: finding each other within themselves or finding themselves within each other?

Loving The Enigma ✔
"You're mine, Layla." "What-t?" she whispered, still trying to catch up to the whirlwind of emotions crashing through her. "Mine," he repeated, his voice firm and fierce. "Not Liam's. Not anyone else's. Mine. Only mine." ~~ Crestwood High Trilogy #1 ● LAYLA HARPER I'm all about good vibes, great art, and even better company. I'm always on the lookout for new adventures and experiences to fuel my art. But then I saw him - the mysterious guy in school who seems to exist in a world of his own. He's silent, cold, and distant, like a ghost haunting the halls. What secrets is he hiding behind those piercing eyes? I'm drawn to the mystery of him, and I find myself wondering what it would take to crack the code of his icy exterior. ● DANIEL GARCIA I'm a ghost in the halls, a shadow in the crowd. People see me, but they don't really look. I'm a master of hiding in plain sight, of being invisible despite being right in front of them. My walls are up, my guard is down... or is it the other way around? Either way, I'm not letting anyone in. Not after what happened. But then she showed up, Layla Harper is like a ray of light in a world that's gone dark. And I'm not sure if I'm drawn to her or repelled by her. Either way, I'm stuck on her, like a puzzle piece that won't fit. ~ What happens when sparks fly between sunshine & darkness? ~Complete

When The Stars Forgot Us
Some love stories are written in the stars, destined, timeless, unbreakable. Devi used to believe theirs was one of them. That no matter how far life took them, no matter how many years passed, they would always find their way back to each other. But the stars had other plans. Reyan was her first love, the kind that makes you believe in forever. But forever doesn't always last. Somewhere along the way, reality tore them apart, leaving behind nothing but unanswered questions and a love that never truly faded. Now, years later, fate has thrown them back into each other's lives. The boy who once walked away is standing right in front of her, saying words she had once begged to hear. But time has changed them both-too much, maybe. Because love is never the problem. It's the timing, the circumstances, the scars left behind. And the question remains: Can two people who were meant to be find their way back when the stars that once guided them have long forgotten their names? --- A story by Devyani

Part 1: His Silence, My Storm - Loving in Shadows
They never spoke. They never touched. Yet something between them burned-slowly, silently-like a prayer that heaven refused to hear. This isn't a love story carved in sweet endings. It's a wound disguised as a heartbeat- a storm that lived, raged, and died quietly inside one girl's chest. She watched him when the world wasn't watching. She memorized the way he breathed, the way he existed like poetry that was never meant for her- while she stayed hidden in the quiet corners of his life. She felt everything. He remained untouched. He was distant, untouchable- a star she was never meant to hold. Yet to her, he was the gravity that held her together... and the force that tore her apart. This isn't a story about being seen. It's about loving someone so fiercely, so sacredly in silence, that even absence began to feel like a presence. Because some stories are too raw to be told, too holy to be spoken aloud- they exist only in stolen glances, in the quiet ache of never being enough. ~~~ His Silence, My Storm: Loving in Shadows A haunting tale of unspoken love, quiet obsession, and a girl who shattered beautifully for a boy who never knew she was breaking.Complete
