So This Is Love by ellabella201

(Sequel to Our Fake Relationship) Love was never meant to be simple. It was messy, unpredictable, and, at times, utterly heartbreaking. But despite the pain, despite the uncertainty, it was always worth it. Every argument, every moment of doubt, every tear shed-it all became insignificant in the presence of the one person who felt like home. Jared and Ashely had been through it all. What started as a *fake* relationship had unraveled into something real, something raw. After endless denial, unspoken feelings, and battles against their own emotions, they finally admitted the truth-they were in love. And for a while, it seemed like they had found their happy ending. But love never stayed still. It didn't settle just because they wanted it to. Then, *he* arrived. Unexpected. Uninvited. And suddenly, everything that once felt certain became clouded with doubt. He brought a shift, a pull she didn't understand-an unfamiliar feeling that both thrilled and terrified her. It was something she had never experienced before, something she never thought she *could* feel. And with that, the questions began. *What is this? What does it mean?* And worst of all-*had she truly been sure of her heart all along?* So, this was love. A chaotic, gut-wrenching, soul-shaking journey that forced her to face the most impossible choice of all. Yeah. That sounded about right. (Sequel to Our Fake Relationship)
