We weren't just High School sweethearts. We were supposed to be forever. I never thought I would have to imagine a life without him. It was him or nothing. We were supposed to get married, have kids in a cute little house. I never thought this would happen to me.

One day he was there. The next he wasn't.

The love of her life disappeared overnight without a trace six years ago. No one ever figured out what happened. She's spent her time trying to figure out if there's a life to live without him. 

She finally found a place to be happy. At least as happy as she can be. She has the perfect, caring boyfriend. An amazing job. Great friends. A reinvented world created for her to exist without him. Things have worked out okay for her, against all odds.

Then one day, everything changes. 

The world she learned to navigate without him, merges back into one with him. 

She's standing between gaining back the part of her she thought was lost forever and losing everything she's built up while he was gone. 

What will she do when it comes down to it? 
Can she have a happy ending, and with who?

In a World of Strangers: A Michael Jackson Love Story by WendyDarling58
12 parts Ongoing Mature
"I know you're lying" Michael said between sobs. I was about to object when he continued, "Don't! I know you're keeping something from me. I've been trying to figure it out, but I just can't get to a plausible conclusion. Nothing makes sense, Charlie." My heart was beating so fast. His words hit me like a truck. I'd hoped it would never come to this, but I knew the only acceptable thing to do was to tell him the truth. "Okay" I said "but you need to hear what I say without interrupting me and please, please, keep an open mind." *** All of time and space was at her fingertips. She had seen places nobody could ever dream of in a lifetime, and yet, there was one destination, one person she was desperate to see before she went back to her time. A dream of a lifetime was about to come true, but Charlie would soon find new meaning to the saying "be careful what you wish for".

A question came to me during a reset. A question that has started bleeding through my veins. A question I whisper over and over in my sleep. A question you think I am asking passively. But it stitches into me, coiling around my being. A question I keep asking because it doesn't make sense. All that is left of the world is a city. She is the only person left. She doesn't know what happened, where the people went, why there is no life. You are there. But who are you? What is she? What is she supposed to do when the world resets, and more and more of the city is demolished. She's running out of time. *Completed*

Choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved... including her. It's why I left the small town where I grew up and vowed never to return.

A broken man deemed unfit, even by the Navy SEALs he'd dedicated the past decade to serve. What was supposed to be a quick trip to sell my parent's property turned into this twisted journey that forced me to confront my demons. And then there she was. My first love, and deepest regret. The woman who still owns every piece of my blackened heart. When she asked for my time, I couldn't refuse. Now I can't walk away. Not after hearing of the danger her husband, a missing FBI agent, has brought to her doorstep. After everything, I owe her my help. It's why I offer to protect her and her two little girls from the danger circling them. It's a vow I never should have made, given the trail of bodies I've left in my wake. Like the harbinger of death, I'm the last man either of us should trust.
