When We Were Us

First love doesn't always fade. Sometimes, it waits...
In high school, Elena Carter never imagined she'd fall for someone like Ethan-the quiet boy who walked like the world was too loud. She was admired, confident, from a modest home... and he was just the tall guy in the corner.
But something unspoken bloomed between them.
Until one day, he left. No warning. No goodbye.
Six years later, Elena's thriving, starting a new chapter at a prestigious company. Everything feels fresh-except him. Because he's there. Ethan. Different. Stronger. Handsome. Distant.
As they collide in this new world, the past resurfaces in glances, silences, and the ache of all that was left unsaid.
And while Elena tries to protect her heart, Ethan carries a truth he can't reveal... not yet.
Their story unfolds through seven stages of love: Attraction. Attachment. Love. Trust. Worship. Obsession. Transformation.

Some love stories end.
Theirs is just getting rewritten.
