Billionaire’s Substitute Mistress
She looked down at our joined hands for a while, then looked back at me, the tears rolling down her cheeks now.
"I know I sound stupid. Like, you said, we are just friends, I do not know why I keep wishing for something impossible. I was never this emotional, and even if I was, I was so good at hiding it. Until, well. I want to make this crush go away, I do not know how but I plan to make it die off the way it came—suddenly. I have been alone in this world for a while now, and maybe it's why, when you started to show me a bit of attention, I fell for it at once, because I miss what it's like to be adored. I miss my parents, Aiden, can you bring them back to me, please?"

From The 28th Century
Soheila whispered to herself.
(Do I have a crush on him? Well, my friend said that a crush is entirely different from what they call love. And one time, my friend told me that she had a crush on a man because of his looks.)
"So, I might have fallen in love with his looks. However, that does not mean that I trust him 100%. He's way too dangerous and powerful. I'm too weak against him if one day he gets angry with me."
(If I see him again, I won't let him take advantage of me. Hmph!)

Damaged
The girl leans into her as the guy Jonny stares down at Loyalty from the stage, and starts to sing out the lyrics to David Archuleta’s song ‘Crush’.
My internal rage grows as he reaches this one verse, “why do I keep running from the truth? All I ever think about is you. You’ve got me hypnotized, so mesmerized, and I just got to know”! Yeah, I have to know too, buddy, because if she is returning those feelings I’m going to have to murder your ass! “Do you ever think, when you’re all alone, all that we could be, where this thing could go? Am I crazy or falling in love? Is it real or just another crush? Do you catch your breath when I look at you, are you holding back like the way you do”? Yea

The Crush Decided To Quit
“Your parents won’t agree to your divorce. As long as I don’t agree to it, you can only stay beside me!”
My wrist hurt because of his grip. I wanted to break free, but he only tightened his hold.
A wave of helplessness washed over me when I saw the crazed look in Charles’s eyes.
It was as if he loved me but hated me at the same time. That was why he was doing all the ridiculous things.
But was him finding a replacement during the three years I was away an act of loving me?

The Suit Series
I spun around, "Am I crazy or fal-ling in love, or is it really just another crush?"
Dropping the mop, I grabbed Adam's hand and ignored his questioning laughs. "Do you catch your breath, when I look at you? Are you holding back, like the way I do?" I playfully danced with him, twirling around and putting my arms around his sweaty neck, "'Cause I try I try to walk away; but I know this crush ain't going a-aaawa-aaaa-aay, going awaaa-aaa-aaa-aa-aay!"
I rested my forehead at his and grinned cheekily. "Damn, I missed that song!"

Secret Crush
"I'm sorry I didn't even see this, but I'll do anything to help. Just know I'm here for you.”
Quickly, Chloe added. "Oh, my goodness. Of course, you didn't ruin the mood. And you have nothing to be sorry for.” She said. "Plus, it's not your fault that's happening with them, just know that and that no relationship is there that does not hit the rocky road at some point.”
Even though Chloe had never been in love before, she knew these things and it was why she had already braced herself. She was surely not going to let things like that weigh her down or anything like it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Crushes are like the first sip of a really good coffee—exciting, a little overwhelming, but not always lasting. Moving from that fluttery 'before crush' phase to true love takes time and genuine connection. For me, it started with shifting focus from idealized fantasies to real conversations. Instead of just daydreaming about shared glances, I made an effort to learn their quirks, fears, and dreams over late-night texts or messy shared meals.
True love isn’t about perfection; it’s about choosing someone over and over, even when the glitter fades. I stumbled into it by accident—when a crush’s bad joke made me laugh harder than any romantic gesture, or when they held my hand during a panic attack without hesitation. It’s the mundane moments that sneak up on you, like realizing you’d rather argue about laundry folding than be with anyone else.
