The Lineup
27 matches
Apr 196 minNathaniel - What I can Control.
He built his life on control—routine, discipline, never slipping. But one name, one memory, and one returning rival are enough to crack everything he’s holding together.
Apr 196 minFreya — What I Carry With Me
She carries her grief like routine—quiet, practised, almost invisible. But one message, one memory, and one name are enough to shake everything she’s holding together.
Apr 196 minFreya - The Weight of the Season.
She’s chasing the next win, the next season, the next version of herself. But one name, one memory, and one almost-relationship threaten to pull her off balance again.
Apr 195 minKaiden - The One Who Keeps Moving
He’s running from everything that broke him—straight into the one place that might matter. But the moment he steps back into Nathaniel’s world… nothing feels simple anymore.
Apr 195 minFreya - What I Don't Say Outloud.
She laughs with her friends, surrounded by warmth, chaos, and a safe love. But the moment the noise fades, everything she’s been avoiding—Nathaniel, her past, and her own fear—comes crashing back in.
Apr 195 minNathaniel - What I Still Want
She still feels like home. He just doesn’t know if he’s allowed back in.
Apr 196 minKaiden - A Place I Never Really Left.
He comes back to Eldermoor expecting a reset—familiar streets, familiar faces, a place that might finally feel like home. But the moment he steps onto the field, nothing feels simple anymore. Old rivalries spark back to life, and Nathaniel’s world isn’t as easy to step into as it once was.
Apr 195 minFreya - A Touch I Still Remember.

Apr 206 minNathaniel - A Touch I'd Been Starving for.
A week without her shouldn’t feel like withdrawal. But routine can’t quite everything. Not when one turn of the wheel leads him straight back to her.
Apr 205 minFreya - Healing Is Not A Straight Line.
He left while I pretended to be asleep. Not because I didn’t want him there… but because I didn’t know how to face him after everything we almost said— and everything we still didn’t.
Apr 205 minKaiden - The Moment I Finally Saw Her.
I didn’t come for the match. Not really. But somewhere between the noise, the chaos, and the way the game bent around her… I forgot why I was there in the first place.
Apr 235 minFreya - The First Spark I didn't Expect.
Two weeks of keeping it together. Bakery. Training. Studying. Routine, structure, control. And still… something underneath refuses to stay quiet.
Apr 247 minNathaniel - Close Enough To Feel Everything.
Across the table, across the room— He notices. The space between us. The way we still reach for each other without thinking. And for the first time… Someone else is watching it happen.
Apr 285 minFreya — Almost Something.
It was supposed to be just another training. Set up drills. Guide the kids. Stick to routine. But somewhere between the laughter, the banter… and the way he looked at me, It stopped feeling simple.
Apr 285 minFreya - Where Love Get's Edited.
“He was always… charming. Unsettled.” They say his name like it explains everything. Like, I don’t know him better than they ever could.
Apr 285 minKaiden - A Seat At Their Table.
We laugh as if nothing changed. Like we’re still those boys in the photos, reckless, loud, unstoppable. But some things don’t sit the same anymore.
