Glaring at the wood on the doors

All I wanted was him. His eyes were like starlight, everything about him made me so uncomfortable but that didn't change the fact that he was the one I wanted. I should have known better at the time. Maybe that feeling of danger should have made me run a different way but I didn't, I ran towards him even when he pushed me away. Now I'm here, looking at the window wondering how life would have been if I didn't let him. I should have seen the crazy. But like the dark makes shadows flee, I'll hold on to the little light he left me with. And in every room, I'll stare into the shadows in hopes of seeing him again.

Trespassing (Daryl Dixon x OC) by x_medicine_x

I leaned my forehead against the cool wood. I closed my eyes while tears slipped past my closed lids, hoping and praying everything was just a dream. Oh this was just the beginning.

The Catharsis (Volume II) by -MissAmericanPie-

❝The family that lived next door was so weird. Daniel liked to look out his window at night and watch their tall grass and wild brambles sway in the night wind, broken windows dark all the time, except the occasional flare of a cigarette from the second floor bedroom. And, sometimes, the streetlights reflecting off a pair of blue eyes in the livingroom window, still and blinking like a trapped animal.❞ Cover by @-Jewels-

forgiveness (can you imagine?) by belizafryler

There was one single sign that the house was alive with presence. A single light against the darkness of the neighborhood's dimming sunset. If she didn't know better, Kara Danvers would have said the house was empty. Unfortunately, she did know better- the house wasn't empty at all; rather there was a single, imposing figure in the window. A single shadow that left Kara's heart beating at twice its normal speed. Granted, Kara could have used her... shall we say, super, vision to see more clearly, but she didn't think that was fair. She knew it wasn't fair. She'd lost all rights to peer into the window, to gaze at the beauty of the house ... of the person inside of it.

Asher was always fascinated with the curly hair girl living in the house across his. Slumped on the chairs with the cup of coffee, he often found her sitting in her balcony alone. She had an uncanny ability to draw his attention towards her and fill him with curiosity. But these high rise buildings were hidding screams which only the skies could hear. One day, when a secret is revealed, up in the clouds, a crime is committed in that house, he has to decide, whether he wants to stay silent and hide the truth or speak up and maybe destroy a life.
