Five x reader (one shots/imagines)
Five x reader oneshots/imagines I hope you guys enjoy my stories and I want you to know that unless I state clearly that it is a request, all stories are in fact my own. REQUESTS ARE ACCEPTED Sample of chapter : 'Pride and Joy' I smiled gently and leaned down to kiss her again. Just as passionately, I don't have to worry about anyone coming in this time. I dragged my tongue along her lip, and almost cried out when she opened her mouth, allowing my access. My tongue entered her mouth and entwined with her own. I was a bit hesitant, we'd never done this before. I'd never done this before. At all. With (y/n), she gasped slightly, her arms pulling me closer. After a few minutes, I pulled away, still on top of her, both of us breathing hard. I smiled and gave her a few more pecks on the lips. I leaned back and gave her an Eskimo kiss, right then, her eyes fluttered open and my heart stopped. Pure. Beautiful. Innocent. Mine. Her eyes were pools of the finest gold, a dull glow shone from them. I love when this happens. I just want to stare at her til the end of the world. Nobody else can look at these eyes. Nobody can cause these eyes to look like this gorgeous colour. "Mine. You know dad was right. You are the pride and joy of this academy. You're my pride and joy and I would not give you up for anything." __________________________ I really hope you guys liked this short extract, if you did, feel free to read other chapters of mine.

Barry's life
Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued

Touch: Awakening
The first touch burns. The second will change her life. In the future, humans will never see each other face to face. Technology will facilitate all interactions, from emails to spoken conversations to a hike up a tree-lined mountain. They'll rely on machines to provide them with their basic needs and favorite indulgences, and they'll never know another person's touch. This is the world Alexis is born into. A grad student slated to become impregnated in a few months' time, Lexi's been struggling with her wild and reckless thoughts. Why aren't they allowed to question the Government's decisions? What if her friend, Parker, is right, and the pill regimen they're on deadens their sense of touch? And why does her heart stop and her chest squeeze whenever she's around Drew? Drew's a dangerous man. He asks the questions she's afraid to voice and makes her think. Makes her wonder. Makes her yearn. He promises to help her find the answers, the two of them fumbling toward something they don't understand. The first touch is painful, the second one less so. Each one awakens feelings Lexi has no words for, until she craves Drew like an addict needing a fix. As they discover what the Government has kept from them all their lives, they fight to find a way to have it all - even as it threatens to destroy them forever. **** Later chapters contain situations intended for a mature audience. Consider yourself warned :)Complete
