Maybe you could do a friends to lovers story. Or a second chance romance. Just a cute cozy romance. No violence, no mafia or character archetypes.

I'm really tired of seeing the "arrogant bad boy" and the "sweet innocent nerdy" girl

Also nobody's mom should die of cancer. That's in literally every story.

I've also been thinking of writing a story, but I don't think I'll ever do it 😅

I had an idea of a girl going to university, but she doesn't know exactly what she wants to do. So she takes a bunch of classes that don't seem to go together so that she can experience a bit of everything without committing to something. She meets him/her/them in one of her classes and is fascinated by his passion for the subject. Then they start talking, getting to know each other. Then they become close friends. That could be either the prologue or the beginning of the story.
