Intro They say love finds you when you least expect it. On a regular Tuesday, in the middle of a shop, or between pages of a book you weren’t supposed to read. For you, it arrived on a rainy evening when the world felt like it was falling apart, and the last thing she needed was a stranger with a wonky smile and a secret in his eyes. But sometimes, the heart recognizes a truth the mind isn’t ready for. This is more than falling in love. It’s about holding on when everything tries to pull you apart, about second chances, and the kind of love that makes you feel fuzzy inside. The first time you saw him, it just began to rain. Not the kind of dramatic storm that usually signaled something important—just a soft drizzle. You were standing outside the bookstore on Maple Lane, thumbing through a secondhand novel, when he stepped into view like a scene she'd forgotten she was waiting for. His jacket was too thin for the weather, his hair damp with rain, and he looked lost in thought. Their eyes met only for a moment, but it was enough. Something in that glance—the curiosity, the familiarity of a stranger. It settled deep into her chest.You didn’t know his name. Not yet. But some stories don’t begin with introductions. They begin with a feeling. You watched as he ducked into the café across the street, shaking the water from his sleeves. Something about the way he moved—unhurried, almost as if he had all the time in the world—stirred a new feeling in her. It wasn’t love, not in that quick glance. But it was something. A spark. An invitation. A mystery. Austin– 24, a quiet soul with a past he doesn’t speak of and eyes that seem to carry every story he’s never told. An artist by heart but stuck in a life that demands practicality. He is searching for something real—something he almost stopped believing existed. Love. You- Anything gender, race and ethnicity and anything else you can think of! But you are smart, supportive and always have a joke to lighten the mood!
