Fics like Look Up

You come to Harvard in the summer heat with a blue dress, a grief you don’t talk about, and a future you’re building with your bare hands. Then you crash—literally—into Rafael Barba: brilliant, older, infuriatingly charming, and far too good at seeing straight through you. One spilled iced coffee turns into late-night study sessions, razor-sharp banter, and a friendship so intimate it starts to feel like fate… until it starts to feel like waiting. Years later, you’ve built a life that looks solid from the outside: career, stability, motherhood, a partner who’s good on paper—but something in you is restless, aching for more than survival. When a career opportunity pulls you to New York, you arrive with your son, your ambition, and a promise to yourself that you won’t shrink your life for anyone again. Except the past has a habit of showing up right when you think you’ve buried it.
