Can you recommend some short summer stories?

One 'After Summer' short story could be about a young girl who has to say goodbye to her friends at the end of a summer vacation. She reflects on all the fun times they had, like swimming in the lake and having picnics. It shows her growth and how she is learning to deal with change.

Sure. 'The Adventure of the Summer Picnic' is a great one. It's about a group of friends who go on a picnic in the woods during summer and encounter some mysterious and fun events. Another one is 'Summer Love'. It tells the story of two young people who fall in love during the summer holidays and how they face various challenges.

Unfortunately, without detailed knowledge of the Goodreads Summer 2018 short stories, I can't give a proper recommendation. However, it's likely that there were some short stories with strong emotional cores, whether it was about friendship, loss, or hope. These types of stories often resonate with readers.

Sure. One funny summer story is about a family's beach trip. The kids built a huge sandcastle, and just as they were about to put the flag on top, a seagull landed right on it and knocked it all down. They were so shocked at first but then ended up laughing hysterically.

There was a boy who always had long hair. But one summer, he went for a short military - style haircut. He did it mainly because he wanted a change. His short haircut was not only cooler in the summer heat but also gave him a more confident look. He found that it was much easier to take care of, and he started getting more attention from his peers. They thought he looked really cool and more mature with his new short haircut.

Well, there was this one summer day when a little boy decided to build a huge sandcastle at the beach. He worked so hard on it all morning. But then a big dog ran through it, completely destroying it. Instead of crying, the boy just started building a new one, saying he was making a dog - proof castle this time.

Sure. There's a story where a family of squirrels tries to find the biggest acorn in the forest during summer. The little squirrels learn about teamwork and perseverance as they search high and low. Another one is about a little bunny who befriends a wise old owl during summer evenings. The owl tells the bunny stories about the stars and the moon.

Yes. For instance, there might be a story where a young artist in summer is waiting for the perfect moment to start a new painting. The delay gives rise to fictional thoughts in their mind about what the painting could be. It could be inspired by the summer landscapes around them, but the delay makes the fictional ideas multiply.

One great 'a summer of magic fanfiction' story could be about a young wizard who discovers a hidden magical realm during that summer. He meets unique magical creatures and has to solve a mystery to save the realm.

Well, I'm not that familiar with '5 seconds of summer chubby fanfiction' specifically. However, you could join some 5 Seconds of Summer fan groups on social media platforms. Fans in those groups might share or recommend some great fanfiction works that fall into this category. They are usually very passionate about the band and would be glad to help you out.
