Meet Katherine Kardiff. 

Naïve, quiet, and sweet. Heart full of unfulfilled dreams. Stronger by the minute. 

Not much gets better for her. 

•

Enter Ethan Rymes. 

Realist, loud, and sarcastic. Luck seems to find him. Losing motivation. 

Everything is always fine for him. Not great, but fine. 

•

Now imagine they meet. Imagine the two opposites touch fingers while going to the unlock the same locker. Imagine the thrill of Ethan's adventures and the warmth of Katherine's short stories. 

Just imagine.


    " 'Have you ever listened to the rain, Ethan?' I question softly, staring into his eyes and praying that he feels the connection too. 'Have you ever taken the time to admire the fallen leaves?'

     He shakes his head in amusement and laughs softly. God is that laugh beautiful. 'Not this again, Katherine.' I know I should be focusing on his obvious annoyance with my interest in nature, but instead I'm focusing on how my name rolls off of his lips. How he pronounces it with three syllables instead of two. 

     Instead of getting caught up in his obvious good looks, I smile. And his lips part. And his eyes zero in on my face, as if I'm a target. And he smiles. And for the moment, we're both breathless."All Rights Reserved

His Nightingale by WYLD_ROSE

Book 1 of the Jackson Series! Ella finally gets an opportunity to escape the clutches of her cruel tormentor before fate leads her to Ryder Jackson. Broken and bruised, she soon finds comfort in Ryder who is equally as hesitant to wear his heart on his sleeve. Both have pasts that they just want to forget and souls that need healing. Will they be able to move on together or will history catch up to them? *** I smile shyly and move closer to his face as my eyes sneak a peek at his lips. Meeting his gaze that has darkened with desire I curl my fingers around his collar and pull him closer. "Now, are you going to kiss me?" "Yes." He nods before leaning in until his lips are a breath away. I pull back which makes him groan in frustration. "Promise to never let me go?" It happens in a blur. His lips descend on mine in a hungry yet passionate kiss filled with longing. I whimper softly when his teeth bite down on my bottom lip and coax me to give in. And, I do. His tongue meets mine as we explore each other, tasting and savoring. I tangle my fingers in his hair and tug slightly which makes him kiss me feverishly. It's like he almost doesn't want this moment to end no matter how much air is becoming a matter of priority. I pull away first, dazed still. He follows and his lips trail over the heated skin of my neck, kissing across my jawline, teasing the corner of my lips before nibbling on my earlobe. I'm a mess as I crave more of his addictive touch. I feel like I'm flying. "I promise to never let you go, Ella."

Book 2: The Hell Mouth. by TheGrimReaper777

My eyes snapped open as I fully remembered it. Remembered what he had done to me. He kissed me. I brought my hand up to my lips and gently touched them. I realized a smile had over come my face. I wish I had kissed back. Why did he kiss me in the first place? I had never talked to him about that and now I was getting more and more curious. I had felt fire works. No. More than that... I felt passion, wonder, confusion, love, life, light, a beautiful feeling that I never have felt before. Not even with Ryder. Should I ask him? Did he feel the same thing? Does he feel that way? But he's dating Catherine. Does he like me? Did he like me? Does he only see me as a friend now? Had I missed my chance? Was I being an idiot for thinking such things? Was that image supposed to be a sign that I'm supposed to be with him? Or was it the world trying to break me again?

The Diary Of A Young Lover(Girl) by dreamerrry_butterfly

"I like him. So what?" Liking someone isn't a big deal until it's your very first time!!! That very first puppy-crush where you legit experience each an every lyric of Katherine Li's masterpieces... He was a teacher and I was student. Everything would have been picture-perfect if my life were a K-drama but I haven't done any great deeds to receive this blessing. Our eyes always met, trying to convey the unspoken conversation between us. I don't know why, but even after I'd moved on, my eyes still searched for him. Just like you could feel anyone's gaze on you, I always felt his gaze on me. A silent, discreet gaze which never willed to speak or know anything. But who knew, what hid behind those mysterious eyes? At worst, probably a unspeakable amount of hate and disgust towards me. At best, a small, teeny-tiny little corner of affection, which is close to impossible. Everything was very imperfect, but given the conditions of reality, it was a purely platonic, perfect first crush-story!

Gray's a cocky jerk who seems to get a misguided kick out of making my blood boil. And did I mention the guy's got a chip on his tattooed shoulder even bigger than his inflated ego? Unfortunately, I just found out that I accidentally hired him to work on the BIGGEST campaign of my career!💀 But when Gray's prismatic eyes fill with heartfelt apologies, I don't know how to feel. It's messing with my mind, my career, my new friendships, and worst of all, it's hurting what's left of my ruined heart.

I had to admit, he was cute. His eyes sparkled nervously and his lips were a lovely shade of natural red.

Thomas, I Love You by xpaaulettex

14+ COMPLETED!! romantic short story "Loni, please." His voice is so gentle and so longing, I weaken. Swallowing, I finally dare meet his gaze. My fear of disappointment vanishes. "Please say something." "You made me feel special and loved one minute and the next I don't even know if you're alive." "I..I just really needed time and space to figure out you and me and us. " He gently strokes my arm and feel myself weakening by every touch. Right now, I want him more than ever. "Have you gotten it all figured out?" I ask him breathlessly. "Not all of it, but I couldn't stand another second away from you." "Good answer." I lean in and our lips touch. I've missed this, I've missed him. The past weeks have been so confusing for me. Thomas suddenly stopped calling and texting me. He wouldn't answer my calls and texts. I felt used and stupid. Like maybe Steven was right. What was I thinking? I was never really good enough for him. But right now, I know Thomas means what he said. "You wanna get out of here?"Thomas whispers breathlessly, our foreheads leaning on each other. There's something sexy in his voice, something edgy. "Yes, please." (In the editing process :D)h

Riley and Devin by RoseAndBone

"How many romance books do you read?" Devin asks me. I shrug. "I like them," I say. I keep browsing, running my fingers along the spines. "So, you like romance then?" he asks me. I nod. "What's your favorite part of a love story?" "I like the very first kiss, but I like the second one even more," I say. I bite my lip and look at him. Oh. My. God. What the hell am I doing? Am I flirting? I think that I'm actually flirting. With Devin. Devin, my best friend. I have officially lost my mind. I should probably stop. But I can't seem to. "Will you grab me that one?" I ask. I point above my head, my back's pressed against the bookcase. He locks his gaze on mine and reaches over me to grab the book I asked for. "Thanks." I don't move and neither does he. Riley and Devin have been best friends forever-since Kindergarten. It's Senior year of high school, now. And it's always been simple, Riley's got his back, he's got hers.

Will she risk everything for love?

A Past Written in The Stars by SammyTides

Olivia and Ethan's story didn't begin with fireworks. It wasn't a whirlwind romance or an earth-shattering moment of fate. Instead, it started with something simple-two souls crossing paths at just the right time. They met years ago in a way neither of them had planned. It was during a travel retreat, a small group of adventurous strangers brought together for an experience that promised to be both unforgettable and fleeting. A week of exploring a foreign city, learning new cultures, sharing laughter over candlelit dinners, and stealing moments in between. Back then, Olivia had been drawn to Ethan's effortless charm-the way he could talk to anyone, the way his laughter filled a room, the way he always seemed to be looking for the next adventure. And Ethan? He admired Olivia's quiet confidence, her love for creativity, and the way she saw beauty in the smallest things. For seven days, they wandered through bustling streets and hidden alleyways, beneath the glow of city lights and along tranquil coastlines. There had been something unspoken between them, something simmering beneath the surface, but life had a cruel sense of timing. As quickly as the week had begun, it ended. No promises were made. No goodbyes were dramatic. They simply parted, believing that if fate had other plans, it would find a way. But fate, as it seemed, had other ideas. Months turned into years. The real world took over-jobs, responsibilities, the distractions of everyday life. They lost touch, caught up in their own separate journeys. And yet, here they were. On a remote island, thousands of miles away from where their story had begun. The moment Olivia saw him, it was as if time folded in on itself. Every unsaid word, every missed opportunity, every "what if" that had ever lingered between them-it all led to this. This moment. A second chance, written in the tides.

Excerpt : "What's ya name sweetheart?" One of the oldest looking men in group asks, looking me up and down undressing me with his eyes. "Its Ella and I'm not your sweetheart." I say glaring at him. "Oh feisty ain't cha?" He questions like a prick stepping closer again. "Take one more step and I'll kick you where the sun doesn't shine." I threaten, holding my ground. He throws his head back laughing and then says, "As if, you're a tiny little thing." While taking another step, close enough for me to get him. He throws his head back laughing again, which gives me an opportunity to kick him, so I do. I use all the strength and force in my leg and I get him right in his junk.

I bend over to his face and slyly say, "I gave you a fair warning sweetheart." I finish by blowing him a kiss. "

Broken Pieces by SMC_547

"I love you" she says and kisses my jaw tenderly. "I love you too baby" I reply stroking her still damp hair. We were sat in a dirty McDonald's car park. We could be sat in a fucking pile of trash and I wouldn't care. Because I would be with her. As long as I'm with her, nothing else matters. -------------------------------------------------------- After all he had known was anger and hatred she was like a breath of fresh air to him. With just one look into her mesmerizing chocolate eyes and one listen to her angelic voice he knew he was ruined. He despised this feeling. He felt helpless. No matter how much he tried to stay away he was drawn to her and he knew he was playing a very dangerous game. Leaving the pain of her past behind her she starts a fresh in a new town with her older brother. Meeting the towns bad boy was not on her agenda but every time she saw him she was intrigued. He was rude and had a terrible attitude, but his eyes didn't show anything but pain which is something she knew all too well. They are complete opposites but have one thing in common. They are both broken, maybe just maybe they could be the cure to each others pain. ⚠️ this story contains mentions of abuse and alcohol so if you are not comfortable with this please do not read my story.
