"You know you have got a kissable lips and necks" I sent the message nervously waiting for a reply with excitement. A minute a has passed and I'm regretting it. Maybe I shouldn't have said that at least not now that we are talking again. But a smile made to my lips when I saw his reply. "Oh really?" It was a simple response yet I couldn't help myself from smiling like a teenager. He has always been reserved except for a few instances but I simply love it. I didn't want to make him wait for too long so I typed a response immediately. "Have I ever lied to you?" Seeing the purple heart reaction from his side I couldn't help just smile more and calm down my racing heart. ✿♡♡✿ Two hearts torn apart due to differences but what happens when destiny brings them together in life.

Leaving Laurabelle Falls by carterwho

Let me tell you about how those two months wreaked havoc on my mind and soul. Let me tell you about broken promises and parallel universes. Let me tell you about how coming back from the scariest place I'd ever been was somehow harder than going there in the first place. Let me tell you about Laurabelle Falls. ~~~ When Laura is struck by a drunk driver, she finds herself in a world where she's facing off against incredible evil. She has a cosmic connection to a Goddess of creation, has been living a double life this entire time, and she even has a soulmate. Follow her adventures as she fights for Laurabelle Falls, facing off against the Deerman and enduring trials and tribulation in order to restore life to the world outside of everything she has ever known. Oh, and her parents are actually the stars of the hit sitcom Bethany Lawless. How cool is that? Updates Friday and Sunday.
