    I fell for a boy with the kindest blue eyes, and a charming dimple. He made me feel loved, and cared for, and most importantly he made me feel safe in his presence. He came right in the middle of a tornadoe and managed to turn it into blue skies. He changed my perspective and gave me hope and strength." I looked at him, and he was smiling, and his eyes were a little glossy. He took my hand and kissed it, a small tear caught in the corner of his beautiful eyes. "I thought, hey, maybe life isn't so bad after all. Maybe I can finally allow myself to love and be loved, and to live life normally. When we went to your party, you told me to wait for you. But then your perverted cousin made me feel super uncomfortable, so I went looking for you, just to be able to feel at peace again. And that's when I saw it." My heart beats skyrocketed, because this was the moment everything changed forever. "Saw what?" Asked Axel. I took a deep breath, and continued.

    Sweetheart, where are you? [✔]
    Sweetheart, where are you? [✔]
    The first time my eyes fall on you, I knew that I was in love but as the time passes, I knew you were in love too with me or maybe that's what I can see. You kept refusing that you don't love me but whenever I look into those beautiful hazel eyes of yours, all I can see was love but then.. why would you be refusing all the time that you don't love me? Maybe because I am so dumb in love but I ain't complaining, if it means being in love with you. I am ready to be dumb, my sweetheart.

  • Ocean Eyes
    Ocean Eyes
    Rachel Dawn Evans, a high school girl who has a big crush on the boy with ocean eyes. To her, he seemed like a nice guy and would like to get to know him better. They began talking and after a year, things don't seem to be going their way. Perhaps their story wasn't meant to have a happy ending. Perhaps, this is a story of growth, the process of maturity. A story of acceptance. Remember, you can adore those ocean eyes all you want. But be careful, don't drown in them. Tw; mentions of abuse, self-harm and attempt at suicide. Proceed with caution. Note: I wrote this story 4/5 years ago. Decided to pick it up and edited it a bit recently. Nonetheless, the writing style is still pretty much how i wrote 4/5 years ago back when i just started. The writing isn't polished. I didn't really change much of the writing because I wanted to see how much I've improved (not that much to be honest) and also to preserve my old writings. Also, the story is in first person pov. ALSO REMINDER this is a really cringy story i once wrote for fun and as a gift for my friend. If you're here for giggles then have fun. Cover credit goes to my bestie; Edryan_ on wattpad. Go check her out ^_^

  • After Curfew
    After Curfew
    Willow's always been known as the good girl with the wealthy parents who could do no wrong. Little do they know that this seemingly perfect girl has some less than perfect secrets; and the fact that she's been sneaking out past curfew every night since the beginning of summer isn't the worst one. Distancing herself from the people at school has become lonely, but everything changes when a group of bad boys that she meets after curfew one night transfer to her school and begin to take an interest in her; one even more than the rest. But will they be able to protect her when events from her past re-surface and begin to get her into more trouble than she ever wanted? ********************** We were a circuit, electricity flowing through us at every connection, every light touch igniting a heat that was exhilarating but dangerous. Like we could catch fire and burn to the ground at any second. "Did you take your own advice? Did you ever forgive yourself?" I whispered, my words evaporating in the heat around us. He moved towards me, trapping me against the car door as his lips traced over my jaw, down to my neck. "This," he whispered, his thumb tracing the waistband of my jeans, making my breathing falter. "Allowing myself to feel this happiness, to feel you...this is me forgiving myself." He kissed me, calming the raging storm in me and igniting a new one. I wasn't sure which would cause more destruction, but I knew only one had pretty blue eyes and a effortless smile that could convince me it was all worth it. It probably was.

At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it.

    Happy Hour (A Romantic Comedy)
    ~~~~~ One thing that most definitely hasn't changed is the power of those bright hazel eyes to reduce me to a puddle of mush. And I can't help but think of the last time I was looking into them, right after he kissed me and walked away 15 years ago. Suddenly, all I can think about is how much I want him to kiss me again, and this makes me absolutely furious with myself. ~~~~~~ Em spent her last two years of high school fantasising about Chris. He seemed to hate her, though... except for that one time he kissed her out of nowhere and then disappeared out of her life. 15 years later, Chris is back. And it turns out that, even now they're both in their thirties, she still hasn't quite recovered from her teenage crush. Thrown together unexpectedly, she's either going to have to get over him... or *under* him. But does he feel the same???
