Stranger Stories

Shivansh Randhawa lives only for his work - cold, arrogant, and emotionally unreachable. Shattered by a past he refuses to face, he trusts no one, especially women, and hides his pain behind indifference, pretending he feels nothing at all. Prarthna Malhotra is a cheerful sunshine girl who finds happiness in the smallest acts of kindness. Though she has never received the love she truly deserved, she still holds onto hope that one day, someone she loves will love her back just as deeply as she do. Shivansh- "You are the reason, I hated him till his last breath" "Never ever try to interfere in my life, we are just two strangers!! " Prarthna- "No-no..it can't be true... you are lying, right?" "Don't say this...we are a family.... I am you----" Will they ever belong to each other?

𝗦𝗵𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘆𝗮 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮 has always been the girl who blends into the background. A shy, soft-spoken 19-year-old from a modest family, she has spent her life believing that love-grand, passionate, all-consuming love-is meant for someone else. Not her. On the other hand, 𝗔𝘃𝘆𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗵 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗿𝗮 is a man who stands out in every room. A charming, confident 24-year-old pilot born into privilege, he's spent his life soaring through the skies, seeking excitement in every adventure. But beneath the easy smiles and playful flirtations, he's searching for something real, something that anchors him. When a single swipe on a dating app throws them into each other's orbit, neither expects the connection to be anything more than a fleeting spark. Yet, as their late-night conversations turn into something deeper, as stolen glances grow into unspoken confessions, they begin to unravel each other's hearts in ways they never saw coming. But love isn't just about butterflies-it's about weathering the storm. As doubts and differences arise, will Shivanya see her own worth, and can Avyansh prove his feelings are real?

The world knows Charles Leclerc as a Formula 1 driver. No one knows he's a father. When Elena Rossi, a recent graduate, meets him , a Monaco supermarket, she doesn't recognize the man - only the exhausted parent behind the wheel of a shopping cart and a crying baby strapped to his chest. What begins as a temporary solution turns into a season-long journey across the Formula 1 calendar. Elena becomes the keeper of a secret, the steady presence in a life defined by speed and pressure. Between racetracks and hotel rooms, media days and midnight feedings, everything becomes complicated - especially when feelings grow where none were supposed to exist.

They grew up together. Fell in love like it was inevitable. And lost each other in a way neither of them saw coming... Now, years later, they're back in the same place...same city, same memories, same everything. Except this time, they're strangers. And some memories...never really leave, no matter how hard you try to forget them. ❝𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘰𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘨𝘰.

💍 Strangers by Vows She didn't know his name until it was printed on her wedding card. He didn't see her face until she walked toward him in bridal red. Arohi Malhotra, the shy daughter of a lawyer and a doctor, had always kept her world small - a safe distance from curious eyes, guarding a past that no one was allowed to touch. Harshvardhan Singh Rathore, CEO of a global luxury empire, was known for his cold precision, ruthless deals, and a gaze that could make even the boldest people falter. To his family, he was protective and loyal. To the world, he was untouchable. When their families tie them together in a marriage neither asked for, they meet for the first time on their wedding night - two strangers bound by vows, yet worlds apart in every way. But in a relationship built on silence and secrets, how long before the distance between them begins to burn... or break them?

In a world where gods play favorites and monsters hunt in shadows, love might be the deadliest curse of all. Max, son of Ares, has lived his whole life under Hera's cruel blessing-a curse that destroys anyone who gets too close. He's the best fighter at Camp Half-Blood, feared for his temper and his blade. Then Charles arrives-a golden boy with a past he won't talk about, and anger he knows how to use. The gods whisper that Charles is the second half of the key to ending a threat older than Olympus itself. Thrown together on a quest across ancient ruins, and monster-infested roads, Max and Charles will face curses, trials, and the darkest corners of their own trauma. The deeper they go, the more the line between hate and something far more dangerous begins to blur. But with a god's legacy at stake and a curse that punishes every bond Max makes, falling for each other might not just be forbidden-it might be fatal. Percy Jackson AU

Myrth Reathen isn't full of secrets. She isn't broken, and she doesn't need to be fixed. She just wants to be free. Free from her hometown, free from the shackles of a broken family. Then comes Billy Hargrove. Straight from California, crashing off the west coast like a tidal wave. All curly hair and bedroom eyes. Dangerous, teasing, untethered. As restless at heart as the churning madness of a stormy sea. And Myrth has always loved the sea.

On the court, they compete for victory. Under the lights, they compete for control.

When an unserious lawyer meets an unserious teacher, sparks fly as the vicinity is plunged into darkness. It's a simple grocery run. What could go wrong?

Some stories are about falling in love. This one is about finding home. Six strangers. One penthouse. A city that feels too big. Between university lectures, midnight snacks, failed cooking experiments, endless laughter, and the quiet moments no one sees coming, they slowly discover that family isn't always the one you're born into. Sometimes, it's the people who happen to share your address.

He heard her name long before he ever saw her. Every corridor seemed to whisper the same name. Amaya. Everyone knew who she was. Except Kerry. The more he searched for answers, the more mysterious she became. A quiet girl who was rarely seen, yet somehow impossible to ignore. Every answer only led to another question, and every small glimpse pulled him one step closer to a story he never knew he was walking into. She never knew who he was. She never noticed him. To her, Kerry was just another stranger passing through the same school. But life has a strange way of bringing two strangers together. Not through a confession. Not through love at first sight. But through words written on paper... Letters that carried hope, comfort, laughter, and the feelings they could never say aloud. Without ever realizing it, two strangers began changing each other's lives-one letter at a time. Never Confess is a slow-burn romance about missed moments, quiet hearts, unspoken feelings, and the extraordinary bond that can grow between two people who were once complete strangers. Because sometimes... the most beautiful love stories begin long before two hearts ever meet.

HELLO! Thanks for reading! This is a byler story right at the end of season 4! I am pretty proud of it so far, but I'm not an awesome writer. Sorry the chapters are a little short but sweet! So please be a little kind! I ALSO MADE A PLAYLIST IF YOU WANT TO LISTEN WHILE READING IT IS SUCH A GOOD AMBIANCE. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/52lpoMqoDeljS5K7DCrRZi?si=k_mfLa_5Swailg71hwy0eQ&utm_source=copy-link&pi=ES1l7plLQO6rW I'm tryin here, but we shall see how it does. Hope you love it!! (I also posted on AO3 so GO SHARE OUT 🫪🥹😼)

You never notice the faces in a crowd. Until one face starts appearing everywhere. In a city as crowded and alive as Seoul, even one familiar face shouldn't be possible. The first time I saw her at a glance, she's forgettable. The second she was recognizable. After the third, I begin searching for her without meaning to. When a late-night message uncovers a pattern of unexplained disappearances, every passing glance begins to feel intentional. The question is no longer why she's there. It's whether she ever let us out of her sight.

You know when you see someone in the street and your gazes lock and one of you smiles and you end up temporarily in love with that person? You know the feeling of having a crush on someone even though you know nothing about them, you can't stop thinking about them the whole day? This is what this story is about. This is what happens to Jo.

A small Rajasthani arranged marriage story, revolving around the two strangers and their families.....

Dua nyawa dalam dua raga yang tak sengaja dipertemukan oleh dunia, di depan bangunan megah yang melambangkan kesetiaan cinta.

Original Summary: a text sent to the wrong number. a conversation between two strangers. their lives changed forever, even if they don't know who's on the other side of the screen. will they ever find out? --- This is a reuploaded version of @ihaveajuicebox's Area Codes using web captures from Google Cache, Bing Cache, a lovely reading from @wattpadreader5685 on YT for some of the chapters google didn't cache (example, one!), and various other methods. Also, the last 11 or 12 chapters came from the original author herself, either via DM Or when the original was made public again in Spring 2024. I know there is and forever will be controversy surrounding Dream and related creators; however, this fic is fucking hilarious, so I am taking the time to make it available again. I will be uploading this in chunks because it takes so long to reformat everything. Please thank me, my fingers hurt. (I will also be officially archiving this on AO3 so it can be saved on the wayback machine)
