Beyond The Years (KTH FF)

Summary

"She was light. He was the storm she didn't see coming." Bound by time, torn by circumstance. She's young, full of life, and hopelessly in love with the one man she's not supposed to want-her father's best friend. He's older, closed-off, and battling a war between what's right and what he craves most: her. What begins as lingering glances and stolen moments quickly spirals into something deeper-something forbidden. He pushes her away, not because he doesn't feel it, but because he feels it too much. But love doesn't listen to reason. And when fate separates them, it takes years, heartbreak, and growth to bring them back to each other. Now older, wiser, and even more drawn to each other, they get one final chance to make things right. This is a story of forbidden love, aching separation, and soul-deep connection. Of a sunshine girl who fell first... And a grumpy man who fell so much harder.

Phase one

Prologue!

“I didn’t even know his name.

But the moment I saw him… I knew.

Something about him—his eyes, the way he moved, the silence around him—felt like every story I ever wanted to be in.

He wasn’t just handsome… he was art. A slow-burn song I’d never heard, but already loved.

And when someone whispered he was my uncle—my heart stuttered.

Not by blood. Not really.

But enough to make this feeling dangerous. Enough to make me want it more.

What do you do when the man you fall for at first sight… is you dad's best friend.

You hide it. You smile. You pretend. But deep down… you start writing his name across your dreams.

Even though ,after knowing that he is Older. Off-limits. Untouchable.

I didn't care. It had already decided .

I didn't fall slowly.

“I told myself it was wrong.

That she was too young, that she deserved someone her age—someone simple.

So I pushed her away.

But the truth? I saw her. From the beginning.

Not as a kid. Never as a kid.

She was bold, beautiful, and far too dangerous for the walls I built around myself.

And when she confessed, I panicked. I played the mature card. Told her to move on.

But then I saw him… that guy with the easy smile and the way she laughed around him.

And suddenly, I wasn’t calm. I wasn’t wise. I was just… jealous.

Because she was mine. Not officially. Not yet. But my heart had already claimed her before my pride could catch up.

So when she looked at me again—hope still flickering in those eyes—I didn’t stop myself this time.

I said yes.

Not because I was ready.

But because 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝."
