"He is the one. The one that every girl searches for. He is the one for me, and he is mine now. He is what life offered me as a small light, a light of pure hope. He was that one light that I had to hold on to through all the things that were going to happen to me..." *** The most beautiful form of love is when two can depend on each other with their lives, cherish each other's delicacy, feel the emotions within a single touch, and most of all: feel free. The dark life Blossom hides behind closed doors is soon to be explored by Romeo, and the two shall learn how to share, how to help, how to let in. Thus will be written a story in which two young people experience what love actually feels like. This is the spinoff of 'Interest'.

(The book isn't as serious and sad as the description makes it sound like, but will contain some dark scenes.)

These are one shots of the storm and silence series written by the talented Rob Their. I do not claim any of the characters, these one shot are solely based of the amazing watty award winning series.
