Mike is perfectly content with his calm, quiet life-until Jackson, his chaotic childhood rival, crashes back into it like an unwanted sequel. *********** Mike has always hated Jackson. Ever since elementary school, not a single day went by without Jackson breathing down his neck-interrupting and annoying the shit out of him. Needless to say, Mike was over the moon when he heard Jackson was transferring, and he wished to never see him again. Unexpectedly they meet again in high school. What started as old rivalry, petty pranks and a bet soon turned into something neither of them expected- and for a moment everything felt magical. Until circumstances force them apart. But life has a unique way of rewriting stories. And love leads them back to pick up where they left off!

When Max's parents go on vacation, he decides to spend the week with his best friend, Lilly, who also happens to be the sister of his long-time straight crush. Spending seven days with Lilly, Jake and his girlfriend during the summer break before college starts can't be that bad, right? 'Imagine falling in love with a straight guy. Well, that's exactly what I did. It's a story as old as time, and I'm trying my best to get over him, but the fact that his sister is my best friend doesn't help, along with his suspiciously odd girlfriend that keeps popping up at inconvenient times. We really are failing at crushing 101 - falling for someone you can never have.' CONTENT WARNING: My characters enjoy cursing (thanks, Jake), and this story delves into darker topics such as mental health, issues faced by minority groups, includes violence and more.

"Not happy to see me, Ishan?" Shubman chuckled and Ishan wished he could punch him in the stomach. "Seeing your face is the last thing I want in my life." Ishan spat glaring at the boy with fire in his eyes. He sees an expression flicker over the other's face, which is quickly covered by a smirk. "Now that's rude sweetie." Shubman chuckles bitterly and Ishan wants nothing more than to punch his stupid face into the ground but somehow, he can't. "Don't call me that." Ishan almost shouts, his chest heaving up and down from all the anger. They both stare at each other, none of them backing down. . . . . . . Two people who used to be best friends, can't seem to stand in the same room now. What changed? Is it just hate? Or is it love? Read and find out

When Evan Hale's long-hidden relationship with the boy who once saved him begins to rot under secrecy, the arrival of someone who sees him clearly forces Evan to confront a devastating truth: sometimes the love that raised you is the love you have to leave. *** Evan Hale has always known two things: homes can break, and people can leave long before they walk away. Landon Pierce was supposed to be the exception. His neighbor. His best friend. His first love. The boy who once pulled Evan out of the wreckage of his childhood and became the only place he ever felt safe. But high school changes things. Landon is louder now-brighter, adored, claimed by the varsity world that wants all of him... except the part that belongs to Evan. What was once easy becomes hidden. What felt unbreakable begins to fracture. Then Aiden Reyes shows up-quiet, observant, impossible to ignore. He doesn't demand anything from Evan. He just notices. And for the first time, Evan feels seen without having to disappear. As jealousy hardens into lies and the past tightens its grip, Evan is forced to confront a truth he's been avoiding: The boy who once saved him may be the one hurting him most. And the boy he never expected might be the first to choose him freely. But how do you walk away from the person who taught you what love was in the first place?

Introduction. Some people don't cry for help. They just... stop asking. Eraya was one of them. She existed in corners, in the last bench of a lecture hall, in the shadow of her own hoodie, in silences that felt too heavy for someone her age. No one questioned it. No one looked twice. Except Zivah. Zivah, who carried light like it belonged to her. Zivah, who laughed too easily, loved too deeply, and never realized that the softest hearts are the ones that break the hardest. She wasn't searching for a love story. She already had a life full of warmth, of people, of everything Eraya wasn't. But something about that silence, something about the way Eraya flinched at nothing, felt wrong. And Zivah couldn't look away. Because sometimes, love doesn't begin with attraction. Sometimes it begins with noticing what everyone else ignores. What she didn't know was this, some silences are not chosen. Some homes are not safe. And some girls are not waiting to be loved... they are waiting to be saved. And when the moment came, when the world decided Eraya was nothing more than a burden to be traded away, Zivah made a choice. Not a loud one. Not a heroic one. Just a quiet, trembling decision that changed everything. "If no one wants her... I do." This is not a story of perfect love. It is a story of staying. Of unlearning fear. Of holding someone so gently... they forget what it felt like to be hurt. Because sometimes, the softest rescues are the ones that save you the most.
