love island 🤍🏝️💫
The sun is already beating down when you step out onto the pathway, heels clicking softly against the stone as the villa stretches out in front of you. White walls. Blue pool. Glass doors thrown open like an invitation. Somewhere behind the cameras, you can hear producers murmuring, but all you can really hear is your own heartbeat.

after everything
You were never supposed to fall for your best friend’s brother. It started quietly—late nights, shared secrets, the kind of closeness that felt inevitable but dangerous. When the relationship fell apart, it did so loudly and messily, leaving hurt on both sides and a silence that lasted years. You never spoke again.

red cups and fourth years ⚽️🎶🥂🎉
You’re only a few weeks into first year—still feeling like a guest in a place everyone else already belongs. You go to lectures, you go home, you stick close to the one person who makes the campus feel less overwhelming: Mabel, your best friend. She’s louder than you, braver than you, and lucky enough to have an older sister who knows everyone.

hockey star 🌟
you are currently visiting new york for the summer after a very stressful year at university. you were with your best friend clara and she was obsessed with hockey — utterly obsessed — but that was mostly because she liked how the men looked. anyways, she dragged you to a rangers game last minute and made you buy a large popcorn and diet coke, (which you don’t actually like, you hate coke.)

Houston, Texas, 2003 — a city split between polished glass towers and endless stretches of sunburnt land.

off the record
The apartment was quiet, save for the low hum of a late-night street somewhere outside Niamh’s window. She was bent over her laptop, a stack of case law and notes spread around her like a fortress. The coffee she’d poured hours ago had gone cold, and her hair had escaped its clip in soft strands around her face.

dreams and despair ☁️🇫🇷👠
You came to Paris with two suitcases, a sketchbook full of designs nobody had seen, and the kind of hope that only survives in people too young to know when to quit.
