"Died in her sleep" is supposed to be a comforting phrase. Its suppose to ease the pain of loss. "She's in a better place." What place could be better than with those who love her? "Her suffering has ended." Even that one isn't comforting when you know that your suffering has just begun. Everything you didn't ask comes to mind and everything you shouldn't have said. Every fight seems meaningless, Every happy moment seems lost. Now that she is gone you have a whole lifetime to ponder what you should have done differently. Should have been more grateful, more loving, more truthful. Now its too late.

Almost Perfect~
Living with no change in a city where no one seemed to leave or stay. She wanted a little change but got a whole lot more. It's really Loving someone who doesn't love you back that hurts. Perhaps it isn't the fact that they don't love you, but the fact that you loved them so much it hurt and they had no idea you even existed. Its not until they notice you that the hurt goes away and everything becomes perfect. But nothing can be perfect, in Robert Frost's words, "So dawn goes down to day, Nothing gold can stay" This is my first fanfic and is short with a terrible ending. Maybe one day I'll get around to adding more or something.Complete
Almond
"Some people teach you how to speak again. Others make you wish you'd stayed silent." _____ Almond A quiet love. A buried past. A story that will leave you aching. She doesn't talk much-not about the things that matter. Not about the names she still can't say aloud. Not about the night that changed everything. She just wants to breathe without breaking. To disappear into the background and not be noticed. But He notices her. Gentle where others push, patient where others pry-he doesn't ask her to open up. He just stays. And sometimes, that's louder than words. But love is never simple. And even the softest hearts have storms waiting inside them. "A soft love story wrapped in ache, healing, and unspoken words. Walk with me through the quiet chaos of two broken hearts trying to find their way. You won't regret it." -----
Almost, Always 🍁🥀
"Almost, Always" 🍁🌹 Some people enter your life like whispers...soft, sudden, and gone before you can hold on. She didn't expect to see him again. Not after years, not like this. Not when she had finally learned how to forget the boy who never truly left her mind. But fate isn't loud..it's quiet, casual... cruel. In a classroom filled with noise, their glances screamed stories. A slow-burn connection, unsaid words, and almosts that could've been everything. This is not a fairytale. This is a memory rewritten..with the ending she deserved.
THE BOOK OF FORGOTTEN DELIBERATELY
"Some truths don't set you free. They set you on fire." They told me not to open that book. They warned me with stories-old, crusty ones-about madness, about secrets best left untouched. They said the library's far wing was cursed. That the books in that section didn't whisper wisdom-they screamed. But curiosity has a strange way of settling into your bones, especially when you've lived your entire life inside walls built from someone else's truths. My name? It doesn't matter-not yet. This story isn't about names. It's about what was forgotten deliberately. And how I found it. I wasn't born a rebel. I didn't want to challenge kingdoms or rewrite history. I just wanted to understand who I was, why I felt out of place, and what those strange dreams meant. The ones with burning skies and voices calling me by a name no one else knew. This isn't a tale of heroes and villains. It's messier than that. It's about a girl who found a truth so big, it didn't fit into her world. And maybe-just maybe-it won't fit into yours either. But I'll tell it anyway. Because stories like this-whispers like these-were never meant to stay silent. Disclaimer This is a work of fiction.

All of The Girls
She knew he'd been in love before. Not just once, not just in passing. Real, deep, messy love. And maybe that should've been her sign to keep her distance. To not let herself feel too much. But instead, it made her pause. Because the way he talked about them-the girls before her- it wasn't bitter. It wasn't dramatic. It was quiet. Thoughtful. Almost gentle. He remembered birthdays, late-night calls, stupid little details no one else would hold on to. He loved them well. Or at least, he tried. And that's what messed her up. Because it made her want to fall even harder. And at the same time, it made her want to run. She wasn't afraid of his past. She was afraid that someone like him-someone who had already given so much-might not have anything left for her. Or worse, that he would love her the same way. And she'd fall for it, just like they did. And end up as another name he says gently, years, from now.
Good Karma
"A Tale As Old As Time.... A Whole New World.... We Must Simply Have Corage And Be Kind 🧞♂️🌹🤴 ______ She was the rich girl with a kind heart. I was the poor boy who had yet to obtain his inheritance, but we fell in love. Then, I faced an ultimatum: my heart or her life. I chose the latter, but that was five years ago. Today, I stand as the most powerful man in the country, both in the light and the dark. Some call me a beast; others call me a man of strength. The woman I love and lost is now married to one of the most successful men in the country, but he doesn't possess her heart. She is not his wife; she is his trophy. The desire and affection we share remain unbreakable, even after all this time. Her stepmother is wicked. Her twin sister has an ugly heart. The woman who murdered my parents is a manipulative snake. Contending with my demons and bringing her into my darkness is a dangerous game, but I am confident in my power. I trust that karma will be in our favor, that it will be good. My name is Malakai Alvarez and I shall share this world with her.
