    Summary

    There's nothing special about him, Manjiro figures. He has dark, messy hair and the bluest eyes that threatened to spill tears as he glared. He's small, scrawny, staring up at kids bigger than him. Yet, despite the scrapes on his arms, he clenched his tiny hands and stood his ground.

    He's nothing special. But Manjiro couldn't stop staring.

    Or

    Takemichi and Mikey meet as children, become best friends, fall in love and grow up together.

    Summary

    Steve’s hand squeezes as he nods, a stray chestnut lock bouncing on his forehead. “Yeah! It’s like your book!” He points to himself, and then Eddie. “I’m Frog and you’re Toad.”

    Eddie wipes his nose on his shirt, scrunching his brow. “Who says you’re Frog?”

    “Me,” Steve answers with a giggle. Eddie crosses his arms over his chest, which is significantly lighter than a few minutes ago.

    “What if I wanna be Frog?” He challenges.

    Steve sticks out his tongue, and Eddie pounces.

    Their cheeks shine with drying tears as they wrestle like dogs, the afternoon rain gradually slowing to a light sprinkle. Re-emerging sunlight catches on their teeth as they laugh and smile, the dark clouds of sorrow long forgotten. The boys eventually end up splayed out across the wooden floor, Steve the proclaimed victor.

    “Friends forever?” Steve asks later, pinkie held in between them.

    Eddie grins, locking their pinkies tightly.

    “Forever and always.”

    Summary

    –¿Creés en serio que tenes que cuidarme todo el tiempo como si fuera una criatura? –protesta Roberto, y Fito siente que ya no puede más. Siente como una rabia extrema se apodera de él y por fin le grita a Roberto. No puede seguir mintiendo.

    –¡¿Creés en serio que yo escogería enamorarme de un boludo como vos?! –exclama Fito sin pensar. La expresión de enojo se borra de su cara, la cual se torna pálida como la nieve. Hay un silencio sofocador y absoluto, ninguno se atreve a romperlo por unos segundos.

    Summary

    “You’ll call me every day.”

    “Every day,” Nico promises.

    “And you’ll spam me with photos of whatever you’re doing, and pictures of the crowds at your shows, and whichever places you’re visiting.”

    “You’ll get sick of me.”

    “I could never,” Will says, wiping away the tear that was about to fall. “I love you.”

    “I know,” Nico whispers back, his hands reaching up around Will’s neck, standing up on his tip-toes to pull Will into another rib-crushing hug.

    Summary

    “If you loved me, you wouldn’t have left me after I moved. You wouldn’t have went out to be close with Kaeya and leave me in the dust. If you loved me, I wouldn’t have to hear that you were using me all along because you’re so insecure about yourself.”

    “I’m not insecure with myself. I’m insecure to confront you. You’ve changed, Kuni.”

    “I’ve changed because you changed.”

    “I wanted you to love me back.”

    “I did. But not anymore.” His words shot me deep into the heart. It hit the deepest crevices of my functioning organs. All I had ever wanted was to know if he’s still willing to glue our homework together like he wished we could.

    Summary

    “It’s love. I only feel love for you.”

    “No. Stop talking nonsense. It isn’t love.”

    “You don’t think I love you? I never stopped dreaming about our future since we were kids. One where we would travel to warmer places and collect flowers, then drink eat chocolate until our bodies can’t handle it anymore! Then we would adopt a guinea pig and bake together. You could pursue in badminton and I’ll watch all of your tournaments—”

    “I’m don’t want to pursue in badminton anymore. You don’t remember sixth grade?”

    And I saw the puzzled expression on her face. How her eyebrows wrinkled inwards and a thinking frown went across her lips. Seeing her like that, I immediately knew: “See? You don’t love me as much as you claim.”

It's been years since they've seen each other, and plenty has changed, and not just in appearance. What should've been a simple trip to further his career journey turned into a life full of secrets and confusion, and left Kaveh wondering about whether Alhaitham really was who he initially thought or not.

    Years after the last message Aerith received from her boyfriends, Cloud and Zack, she's given up on seeing them again even as she longs for it. The days bleed together. No matter how much she asks the Planet, searches for them in the Lifestream, they have not returned to her. And she has no way of getting out of Midgar to find them without help, and the Turks are always watching.

    Summary

    Castiel never expected to meet Dean Winchester. By all accounts, they never should have met. Castiel was a catholic boy growing up in an upper-middle-class neighborhood. Dean was just a poor kid trying to navigate the life given to him. Castiel never expected to meet Dean Winchester. By all accounts, they should never have crossed paths. They didn't have any mutual friends, nor did they attend the same schools. They didn't even share the same hobbies or regularly visit the same places.

    Despite all of this, fate had other plans for them.

    Summary

    Morgan and Alex have been inseparable since age 8.

    Everybody and their grandma knows those two gremlins of childs can’t go a week without talking. They walk together, eat together, play together and— if Morgan’s parents weren’t so rigid— they would have sleepovers every night.

    But oops. Now they’re 12 and they just got their powers. Oops again, they’re starting to develop feelings. Oops X3 new school and oh… Alex has a secret identity now.

    New powers, new school, new feelings and new secrets. That’s the perfect recipe for a wholesome disaster. Let’s see how those two idiots navigate through the shenanigans waiting for them.

    “I bet they will end up together. U know, the Stewart and Sterling kids” one old lady smiled, watching as said kids happily chase after each other.

    “They definitely will” agreed her sister “such sweethearts”
