    Because first love is never perfect, only unforgettable. She was chaos in sneakers, clumsy, loud, and heartbreakingly honest. He was silence in uniform-disciplined, distant, and always watching from the shadows. She turned every drama into poetry. He made stillness feel like home. In a world of morning assemblies, surprise tests, and lunchbox secrets, Trisha and Mahin found a love that wasn't planned... just felt. ●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○ She turned to him and whispered. "And... do you see me?" He didn't hesitate, his voice was quiet, calm. "I do. Every piece. The way you fight, the way you smile, the way your laughter makes chaos feel like home... I've noticed all of it. I've always noticed you. And I... I'm not going anywhere. You're mine in ways even words can't touch." Trisha's eyes glistened. Her hands trembled slightly. "Even... if I'm a mess?" He smiled softly as he looked at her and said. "Especially then. You, all of you, are what I've been waiting for. Every piece. Every flaw. Every heartbeat. That's where I belong." ●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○ This isn't just a story. It's your old classroom. Your first crush. Your teenage heart-rewound. Come, relive the madness, the innocence, and the magic of growing up.

    [Wattys 2022 Winner!] Vanessa Brooks, an anxious and cynical seventeen year-old, discovers she can travel to the summer of 1953 through the run-down community pool in her rural Michigan town and risks her future as she falls for a boy who lives in the past. ****** On the last day of junior year, Vanessa Brooks joins her friends for a traditional jump into the city pool to celebrate the beginning of summer and the last year they plan to spend in Palmer, Michigan; a dead-end riverside town with an eerily abandoned historic main street and decaying Victorian mansions. But when she resurfaces her classmates have been replaced by girls in retro swimsuits and bathing caps and guys in thigh-baring briefs with cigarettes tucked behind their ears. When Pete Harrison, an unfamiliar face who seems somewhat familiar with hers, offers a dizzy and confused Vanessa a towel and a ride home, she discovers her house and family missing. She has somehow slipped into 1953, the year her grandparents graduated high school. Using the pool and vivid imaginings of her grandfather's memories, Vanessa continues to escape to 1953- and to Pete, who, despite his unaffected kindness and optimism, has a mysterious bad reputation around town. But as she dives deeper into the summer her grandparents fell in love, she finds herself unable to return to the present without venturing even further into the past to correct a mistake that threatens her family and future. *Content Warning: this story contains scenes of near drowning and other perils on the sea, swearing, smoking and alcohol use* This story is complete at ~90,000 words.

    Hello everyone! Welcome to the journey of Abi and Ashu. A slow-burn romance story about growing up, the innocence of school love, the struggles of long-distance, and the harsh realities of balancing ambition with a relationship. Before you dive in, here's a little about what you're about to read: 1. Based on a True Story This story is heavily inspired by actual events from my life. Much of the narrative is drawn directly from my personal journals. Because of this, the writing style is journalistic and slice-of-life; it may feel repetitive at times, but that's because real life doesn't always follow a perfect movie script. While the core emotions and events are true, some fictional elements have been added to stitch the narrative together smoothly. Also the present day portions are completely fictional. Some chapters will also feature simple illustrations to bring certain moments to life. 2. The POV System The main story is told entirely from Ashu's point of view. You'll also notice some decimal chapters (like Chapter 5.5). These chapters are written from Abi's POV by my real-life girlfriend. These chapters retell moments from her perspective or include scenes Ashu never witnessed. 3. Language The story is set in a Tamil cultural context. Tamil dialogues are used to maintain the authenticity of emotions, and English translations are provided either immediately or through context. 4. A Small Disclaimer This is my first time writing a story. I'm not a professional author-I'm learning as I go. I've used AI tools to help with grammar and structure, but the heart, emotions, and experiences are entirely my own. Please forgive any rookie mistakes along the way. I hope you enjoy living through our memories. Happy Reading!

    TO BUILD A HOME When photographer Jaine Gayle falls for the brilliant, untouchable Lev Atticus Soren, their small-town summer romance becomes the kind of love that quietly rearranges a life. But just as forever begins to feel within reach, Lev leaves-without explanation-and heartbreak is all Jaine has left to hold onto. Six years later, Lev returns as a formidable lawyer-ruthless in court, distant in person, and guarded in ways that make him almost unrecognizable... until he meets a little girl with his eyes. Ellie Eiden Soren. His daughter. Bound by truth, guilt, and a wildfire attraction that never truly died, Jaine and Lev are pushed into a marriage neither of them is ready for-yet both desperately need. As old wounds reopen and buried emotions claw back to the surface, they're forced to confront the past that broke them and the love that still refuses to let go. Now, standing between resentment and longing, they must decide: can something once shattered still be rebuilt... or will the same fire that brought them together burn everything down? A story of second chances, undeniable chemistry, and a love that refuses to stay buried. *** Author's note: Hi! This story was born from my craving for something soft, cliché, and comforting-so I wrote it myself. It's simple, emotional, and made to feel like a warm, familiar romance you can return to when you need it. This is basically a Beta testing for the story, what you're reading is a live draft, that I would love to share with you. By voting and actively engaging, I can craft better polishing for the final re-launching. Hence, this story will be taken down once the book is finished. And It will be re-published on fixed schedules after the polishing. Thank you so much for giving it a chance. And for sharing this journey with me.💗 Please excuse any small errors while polishing is ongoing. P.S. The cover changes with each arc!

    A friends-to-lovers, slow-burn gay romance between two boys who meet at a provincial setting in 1980s Philippines. This story is not written, nor is it outlined, with ChatGPT or other AI tools. NO TO AI, except maybe SOME reference images. Jump to Chapter 5 if you want to immediately experience the first meeting of these two boys. But be warned: you'll miss out important bits about Mikha's story. Please share your thoughts with me! Feedback and constructive criticism are much appreciated. Note: This is the first draft of the story. SOME characters and scenes could change in future drafts. It may also be inconsistent. I'll arrange them neatly in future drafts.

    Welcome back to 2005 Australia. Again. In the space of one week, fifty-five-year-old Damian Dove has managed to let a serial killer walk free, get caught with a sex worker, anger the media, and get himself fired from his law firm. But a new client walks through the door and offers Damian something unusual. One wish. And the chance to change his life forever. Damian Dove doesn't deserve a second chance, but alas, he got one. The next morning, Damian wakes up in his childhood bedroom. It's 2005, he's fifteen years old. His phone is a Nokia brick. His hair is aggressively gelled. And MSN Messenger is the place to be. Armed with forty years of hindsight and a lifetime of mistakes, Damian assumes this is his chance to fix everything. To make better choices. To become a better person. To find out if anyone cared about him. But as he tries to control old friendships, finds out not many people like him, relives parts of the past and experiences childhood again, Damian realises that the serial killer he managed to let walk free was at school with him this whole time. And he might have a chance to rewrite the past. Watching from the edges of it all is Hale. The strange client who granted the wish in the first place. To be fair, Damian Dove has spent most of his life-giving people very good reasons not to love him. But before Damian's story is finished, he will be forced to confront the question that has followed him across two lifetimes: Can the past be changed, and ultimately, Who Loved Damian Dove?

    Drawing upon the works and interviews of James Baldwin, Audre Lorde, June Jordan, Roger Reeves, Morgan Parker, Safia Elhillo, Aria Aber, and Solmaz Sharif, among others, DISLOCATIONS seeks to investigate and disrupt the dominant narratives of exile and displacement (which often excludes Black Americans) and what Roger Reeves refers to as our "American complicity," referring to our simultaneous roles as victim and victimizer, and the fact that we benefit from the exploits of empire, whether we directly support our government, or consider ourselves "proud Americans," or not. © Z.

    Some stories don't begin with love. They begin with a shift... a new city, unfamiliar faces, and moments that don't feel important...until one day, they become everything. When Naina moves to Allahabad, she isn't looking for anything. Not love. Not change. Just a little time... before life quietly decides her future. But between shared tiffins, unfinished homework, random arguments, and evenings that smell like chai and old songs she finds something she never planned. A friendship that feels like home. A silence that says more than words. And a boy who doesn't speak much... but somehow understands everything. Raghav. He follows rules. She breaks them. He stays quiet. She speaks without filters. He never looks for her... yet somehow always finds her. What starts as nothing... slowly becomes something neither of them knows how to name. And just when it begins to feel real. life moves again. Cities change. People change. Time doesn't wait. But some feelings? They stay... exactly where they were left. A story of dosti, khamoshi, and pehla pyaar set in the soft, slow rhythm of the 90s. "Kuch kahaaniyaan likhi nahi jaati... bas jee li jaati hain."
