"You're atheist," I remind him. "You don't believe in god." "I believe in you," He murmurs, letting the cigarette hang from his lips. "I believe in whatever you believe." He says, letting the confession roll off his tongue as if it were that simple. As if god, the devil, heaven, hell-as if none of it really had meaning to him. "That's not how it works," I mutter as we walk down a few more alleyways-the city of Manhattan coated in a light blanket of snow. Henry Vitiello had never had anything to pray for, that is, until he met me-the only thing that had ever opened his mind up to the possibility of religion "Isn't it?" He argues, taking the cigarette by his middle and pointer finger before blowing the smoke out. "I'II dip my hands in holy water if it means I could touch you." "You'd probably burn." 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐇𝐄𝐍𝐑𝐘 𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐎, the reaper. He's a prick. An asshole. A pretentious son of a bitch. He's not perfect. He's not even decent. But he's hers.

Ellie: Okay counting my blessings here, cough with a pinch of salt cough. I got into my dream college but my father hates me for it. I am finally confident enough to wear what I want without letting others affect my choices, but people still ridicule me for it. I am slowly letting go of what happened at high school, but even a small whisper triggers me - so that one might not be a blessing. Yet - and the best one is I think I might have found my soulmate, BUT a platinum blond, reckless street racer who wears leather jacket even in the Boston heat, tries to actively sabotage it. Guess you can't have it all. Logan: There is not a parallel universe in which I wouldn't be grateful for my grandma and the shit she has to put up with; I'd go to ends of the world for her, and I do what I have to do, to make sure she never faces the person who single handedly ruined all of our lives, ever again. And as fun as it sounds, being the moody guy who breaks everything and is a living terror for everyone except his family, inwardly I am trying with force of all the Gods above to not be whipped by a girl who wears tennis skirts and glittery clips. The aesthetic doesn't really match with my leather jacket. But what else am I supposed to do when she's trying so hard to fill the delusion in her head and fall for the rich clown of the class, except tell her that she can do better. Is this what is called a saviour complex? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Updates on Saturday! The sequel of the story 'Amore' is 'All I See' which is already published, complete but unedited on my profile. Can be read as stand-alone.

The bitter, acidic, tart fruit flavor overpowering the sweet cake. Lorenzo's light eyes darken with fierce, anger as he watches me swallow the wine then finally parting the glass away from my mouth. The cup almost shattering in his hold before letting it go onto the wooden table. His thumb grazed my lips, staining red with the leftover wine.

He speaks low so only we can hear, "Try that again Isabella and I'll have you wishing I poison you." Started 3/5/21
