“do you ever think about anything besides your characters?” “no.” “even when you’re out?” “especially when i’m out. if i die, who will finish their story.”

“you can’t keep writing through the pain,” she says. i smile weakly, hands covered in metaphor and caffeine. “i don’t write through the pain. i am the pain.”

Well, shit.

This was a secret project for a while since I had a honour of making this for Polish Dragon Age Village so they could make contest rewards out of it :D

Room 208 - Prologue

Adrian My rooming situation was supposed to be the same as always. Chase and me. Silly jokes, shared snacks, no drama.

Instead? I got Noah Hart. All he does is read, study, and keep his distance. He looks at me like my existence is a problem.

He folds his clothes with military precision. Wears the uniform perfectly — like he's never had a messy day in his life. Glares at me every time I leave something on the floor.

And okay — yeah — I might make fun of him. A lot. Because he amuses me.

Because he blushes. Because it makes the silence in that room feel a little less suffocating.

He gets flustered if I walk out of the shower shirtless. Which is hilarious. Because it's not like I do it on purpose.

But it's not like I care what he thinks. And I definitely don't think about how good he looks when he's pissed off.

He's not my type. I don't even like boys.

Noah I was promised structure. Tranquility. A focused academic environment.

What I got was Adrian Torres. All cocky grins, perfect abs, and constant teasing.

He's a problem. He's a flirt. A menace. And, worst of all, ridiculously hot.

The kind of guy I've tried not to think about since I was ten.

And now he's everywhere. Across the room. Lying on his bed. In my space. In my head.

He flirts like it's a game. Like it means nothing.

But sometimes I catch him staring. And for a second, I think — maybe I'm not imagining it.

Then he smirks. Says something stupid. And I remember: He doesn't even know.

So I stay quiet. Try to ignore him. And pray this semester ends before I do something stupid.

NOAH: Sharing a room with Adrian Torres was not part of my academic excellence plan. He's loud. He's always shirtless. And he seems to enjoy

Room 208 Read the first arc (chapters 1–8)

If you like enemies-to-lovers, messy feelings, and pretty boys who would rather die than talk about their emotions… welcome to Room 208. I just posted the first arc of my YA queer romance on Wattpad. It’s about Adrian (the golden boy with a flirty smile) and Noah (the anxious scholarship kid who can’t decide if Adrian is bullying or flirting with him). They’re roommates. It’s tense. It’s slow burn. Read the prologue below — and read the whole first arc now on Wattpad.
