Never Mine To Love Never Easy.
Ethan’s POVI’d never liked awkward silences. But the one sitting between me, River, and Noah right now felt like it had teeth. Like it could bite through whatever was left between us.I stared at my coffee. It was getting cold. I hadn’t even taken a sip.River was across from me, hoodie sleeves shoved halfway up his arms, hands wrapped around his cup like it was the only thing anchoring him to the moment. He hadn’t said much. Just a few quiet words, barely above a whisper. And even that felt like pulling teeth.Noah sat beside him, quiet too. But I could see the way his eyes never left River. Like he was watching every breath, every blink, like he was trying to hold River together with just his presence. It made me feel... something. I didn’t know what. Maybe guilt. Maybe regret. Maybe just lost.I didn’t mean to hurt River.I didn’t know I had hurt him until he stopped coming home.I took a breath, set my cup down, and leaned forward. "I didn’t want to bring this up here. But I’v
Never Mine To Love Who to trust.
River’s POVI didn’t know why Ethan had called me.His voice had been clipped on the phone. Not angry, not cold, just serious. “Can you meet me? At the café. It’s important.”No explanation. No details or anything that hinted why he wanted to see me. Just that.I almost didn’t go. I thought maybe he wanted to talk about rent. Or complain about something Karden broke. Maybe I forgot to lock the back door again, or the sink started leaking. It didn’t feel urgent. Just… I don't know how to put it and after everything, I didn’t feel ready to deal with anyone, especially not Ethan and whatever was going on between him and my cousin.But when I walked in and saw Noah sitting there, everything inside me stuttered.My heart did this thing, jumped too fast, then landed wrong. Like I had tripped, but only on the inside. I stood at the entrance for a second longer than I should have, trying to pretend I wasn’t surprised, trying to breathe like a normal person.Noah didn’t say anything when our
Never Mine To Love Something Faraway
Noah’s POVThe day had started like most others. I woke up to the sound of birds outside my window, their calls soft but persistent, as if trying to remind me that time was moving even when I didn’t feel like it was. Sunlight spilled across the floor in slow golden stripes, cutting through the dust I hadn’t bothered to wipe away.I lay in bed longer than I should have, staring at the ceiling. My thoughts circled the same thing they always did lately, River.I missed him.It wasn’t the romantic kind of missing. Not the dramatic kind. It was quieter. Like an ache that settles under your ribs and makes its home there. I kept wondering if he was okay, if he was sleeping, if he was still staying at his aunt’s. I hadn’t heard much from him. Not since that night everything started to feel heavier.After a while, I got up. I didn’t have plans for the day, but the mess in my apartment was starting to feel like a reflection of my head. So I cleaned.Wiped the counters. Dusted the shelves. Folde
Never Mine To Love Way out Of Love.
River's POVThe message sat on my screen like it was begging me for a reply. "Hey. Can we talk?" Just that, nothing more. But it was enough to make my thoughts run wild.I didn’t move. Didn’t even realize that I was actually holding my breath. My hands rested on the kitchen table, fingers still trembling from the moment before. The envelope sat next to them, open and quiet like it hadn’t just open everything I’d tried to bury.He lied to you. It never stopped. just that and all the doubts I ever had all came rushing back into my head.I closed my eyes and let my head fall forward. My forehead touched the edge of the table, the cool surface grounding me for a second. Just a second. Because everything else inside me felt like it was about to break loose. My chest hurt. Not the sharp kind of hurt, but the slow kind, the ache that just finds their way into your bones when you’ve been carrying too much for too long.The air smelled like cinnamon and old wood like always. Aunt Lydia’s hous
Never Mine To Love The Timing Of Everything.
River’s POV.Aunt Lydia had gone to work early, but she’d left a note on the kitchen counter like she always did. Her handwriting was round and neat, the kind that made everything feel warm.Morning, sweetheart. There’s soup in the fridge. Text me if you need anything. Love you.I didn’t text her.I just stood there, holding the note in my hand for a little longer than I needed to, like maybe if I stared at it long enough, it would say something else. Something more. Something that would make my chest hurt a little less.But it didn’t.I folded it carefully and placed it back where it was, next to the sugar jar with the chipped lid. Then I filled the kettle and waited for the water to boil. The quiet was heavy. Not peaceful. Just still. I felt like even the walls were holding their breath.I made tea the way Aunt Lydia taught me—black, no sugar, just a little milk. I wasn’t really craving it, but I needed to do something with my hands.Once it was ready, I took the mug and sat by the
Never Mine To Love Time-stamp.
Daniel’s POVThe courier office smelled like printer ink and dust.I stepped inside slowly, holding the envelope tight in one hand. The place was small, with white walls that needed a new coat of paint and posters taped crookedly to the windows. There was a counter in the middle with a plastic screen in front of it, and behind that stood a guy in his twenties with headphones around his neck and gum in his mouth. His name tag said “Nate.”He didn’t look up right away.Just kept clicking on something behind the screen.I stood there for a second, unsure of what to say. The envelope in my hand felt heavier than it should’ve. I hadn’t let go of it all day. I didn’t trust it out of my sight.Finally, I cleared my throat. “Hey.”The guy who I later found out his name was Nate glanced up. “Yeah?”I took a step forward. “I’m trying to find out who sent something to my house.”His eyebrows lifted. “What kind of something?”“An envelope,” I said. I held it up. “Came this morning. No return name
