Entanglement Series — These aren’t love stories. They’re the ones that slipped between the rules.

The late-night links. The blurred lines. The ones you weren’t supposed to entertain—but did.

Some were quick. Some lasted years. None were simple.

Names will never be dropped. Timelines will never make sense. But every story? Very, very real.

The Guard Shack Situationship Mix-Up

Mistaken identity never felt this right.

A guard shack situationship wasn’t how I planned my week. But one glance turned into a mix-up I don’t regret.

Just a regular workday, walking past the guard shack — and boom — there he was. The kind of “oh damn” moment that sticks with you all day. I didn’t say a word that first time, just kept walking and let the butterflies swirl.

But the next day? I came prepared. A number scribbled down, a plan in motion, and just enough nerve to walk up and say, “Hey, can you give this to the other guy?”

There were two of them in there — both in uniform, both giving nothing away. I handed off the note, proud of myself for finally making a move.

Then came the text.

But wait — it wasn’t from him. Not the one who caught my eye the day before. Nope. It was the other one. The one I hadn’t even noticed at first.

And that’s how it started — a situationship born out of mistaken identity.

It wasn’t love. Not even close. But it was something. We texted. Laughed. Met up a few times. There was chemistry, late nights, and unspoken rules. A true sneaky link if there ever was one.

Then one day he came over — just once — and somehow left with my favorite basketball shorts. Black. Broken-in. Perfect for lounging. I haven’t seen him — or my shorts — since.

But for a random mix-up at a guard shack, it made for a damn good story.
