Young hearts

I watched him as he stood there, leaning on the bridge's railing and eating ice cream. The breeze wasn't disturbing his hair today because he had parked it all backwards, he looked cute, I smiled drawing in some breath, satisfied with how today was going. "What?" I heard him ask taking me off my thoughts. "Huh?" "You were smiling." "Oh. I was...." "Can I kiss you?" He asked looking at my lips. "Here?" I asked now, my heart beating hard against my chest, our first kiss could happen now. "Yeah?" He nodded, I could see his Adam's apple go up and down as he swallowed, I bit my lips, nervously. I smiled approvingly, almost getting up from the bench where I sat. "No sit." He said coming closer to sit next to me. The bench was quite small so we were so close to each other. He leaned in and I could smell him more the closer he got to my face. His lips were now inches away from mine and the moment they touched I closed my eyes, I didn't know why but I did. He didn't put his tongue in my mouth, it was as simple as it could get, just a warm kiss and I as glad he didn't. When he lips left mine, I opened my eyes licking my lips. He was smiling, I hadn't yet told him how much I loved his smile. "You lied." I told him. "About what?" He stopped smiling. "You said you were a bad kisser."

The Writer’s Paradox

Max Carter, a struggling writer with untapped potential, discovers an ancient pen and notebook buried in the forgotten corners of his university library. To his surprise, the notebook activates a LitRPG interface called the Nexus System, revealing a startling truth: countless fictional worlds have begun to collapse. Villains have won in stories where they shouldn’t have, characters are straying from their arcs, and plotlines are unraveling, creating dangerous rifts that connect these broken stories to one another. The Nexus System assigns Max the role of "Keeper," sending him into these corrupted narratives to repair the damage. Each time he enters a story, the system assigns him a role—Main Character, Side Character, or Random NPC—forcing him to navigate each world from different perspectives. Max must restore the proper endings, ensuring the protagonist wins and the story regains stability before the rift consumes it entirely. But the villains, unaware of their fictional nature, are thriving in their rewritten worlds, making Max’s mission more dangerous with every step. The breakdown of one story threatens the stability of others, as rifts open pathways between worlds, allowing elements from one narrative to bleed into another. Max must carefully balance his interference, as disrupting the story too much risks deepening the rift and pulling entire worlds into chaos. With each story he repairs, Max grows closer to uncovering the truth about the Nexus, the ancient pen and notebook, and why he was chosen. But as the stakes rise and the lines between reality and fiction blur, Max must decide whether to follow the system’s rules—or rewrite his own ending.

Writer in another world

Ethan Kendrick, a writer in his early thirties, has spent years building a complex fantasy world for his novel, filled with magical kingdoms, fierce monsters, and brave heroes. However, despite his dedication, he struggles to finish the story, as the characters seem to take on lives of their own, resisting his attempts to bring the tale to its conclusion. One night, exhausted and frustrated, Ethan falls asleep at his desk only to wake up in the very world he has created. His surroundings—a magical forest beneath a strange, colorful sky—are eerily familiar, but nothing can prepare him for the shocking reality: he is now part of the world of his novel. Ethan discovers that, unlike the other inhabitants of this world, he has no special ability or power. He is powerless in a land where everyone is born with random supernatural abilities. Faced with deadly monsters and unfamiliar dangers, he is forced to rely on his wits and limited resources to survive. A mysterious system offers him the chance to earn points and design his own abilities, but the cost of power is steep, and time is running out. As Ethan navigates this new reality, he encounters the very heroes he once created—Kieran the warrior, Liana the sorceress, Alex the thief, and Helen the knight—each more alive than he remembers. Though joining them could provide safety, it also brings its own risks. With no other choice, Ethan decides to follow them, unsure of what awaits in this treacherous world. In this gripping tale of survival, self-discovery, and transformation, Ethan must learn to adapt to a world where the rules are constantly changing, and the line between creator and creation begins to blur. Can he find a way to survive and complete the story he's struggled to finish, or will he be lost in the world of his own making?
