Five Years has passed.
Five Years and yet the memories are still fresh and haunting.
And I fucking hate it.
I have been employed and successful in my new venture now,
But in every achievement, there's this unfathomable emptiness.
It's like living a life with your past keeps flashing those momentous moments,
Having caught him having sex with the person he admits he least like,
His hell of a father who sees himself a god of his own fate,
His life full of untold mysteries and lies,
His undying love for his deceased sister that I held a close resemblance to,
And our vague romance that has no closure and full of questions.
And after five years, he's back?
The moment I saw him enter that room,
I am literally swallowed by my emotions,
That so called fluttering of butterflies inside your stomach
That sting of hatred that I held from that night he run away when I ran after him,
The admiration of his recherche physique
The intimacy I keep on killing but just can't.
And he stood there in front of me.
Eyes full of longing and emotions.
Maybe this time,
Will our love be real?

Breaking Walls | completed | #darklove
ashlayes♡ Tank you for the amazing beautiful cover. I truely appreciate it "But I love you" She told him, but he couldnt realise how much she did by the way she said it, by the way her face stayed emotionless infront of him, her eyes dull. She couldn't read him either. His face was a mirror of her own, they both we're reflections on the past. Before the world dulled their shine. It took everything of her to keep the lump out of her throat as she stared at him, everything to keep away the feelings, the memories and emotions. They both taught themselves a long time ago not to live, not to feel and to chase every emotion away by fear and hate. Sad part was it was 5 years later , 5 years of they both being a walking corpse of life, of being alive but not truely living, they both wouldve qualified for a grim reeper or death angel. And now? Wel now after being dead for 5 years their paths has crossed again and why was the question they both seeked.Complete
Fixing Celia
They say betrayal never comes from your enemies. I used to think that was just something people said to feel better about their broken hearts. Until mine shattered too. The night it happened, everything changed. I lost my best friend. I lost my boyfriend. But worst of all... I lost myself. It's funny how a single moment can split your life into before and after. Before, I was the girl who believed in love, in loyalty, in forever. After, I was the girl standing in the ruins of what used to be her world, gasping for air, screaming into the silence, wondering why. Why me? Why now? Why them? So, I ran. Packed what was left of me and left the pieces behind-what else could I do? I moved cities. Moved in with my cousin. I told myself I needed a break, a fresh start. I told myself I wasn't looking for anyone. I was here to rebuild, quietly, carefully. Just me and the pain that still lived under my skin. But then... I saw him. At the club. Dark suit. Brooding eyes. Hands in his pockets like the world bowed at his feet. He didn't just walk in; he owned the room. The kind of man who didn't need to speak to be heard. I didn't know his name. I didn't know his story. But I felt his eyes on me like a touch that burned. He was power. He was danger. He was everything I told myself to avoid. But as fate would have it, the man who never chased anyone... noticed the broken girl who stopped believing in love. And maybe-just maybe-he'd be the one to help me believe again. This is the story of how I broke... And how he found every shattered piece.

"You told me to stay away! To never let you see me again, and I did. All these 5 years I have stayed as far away from you. Because. Like you said, I'm a bitch, a cheater, a gold digger, a whore!" I shouted at him. Remembering all the things he said to me 5 years ago. I laughed darkly my face had a smirk and not the good kind. I slowly walked up to him and now we're inches apart from wach other. I looked into his eyes and he looked at mine with. saddness? I spoke. "You didn't trust me. You broke your own vows and now you're paying for w--" I was cut off by him wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me closer to his body. Before I could say anything or push him away he kissed me, hard. I tried pushing him away but he didn't budge. Now I was hitting his chest and bitting his lip that I tasted blood and yet he still didn't budge. He took my hands away from his chest and held them behind my back and held me even tighter.

I felt safe in his arms and he finally spoke. "I know sayin sorry won't cut it. I'm such a dick for accusing you. I called you those horrible names. I was just so angry that I couldn't see the truth. I didn't believe you, I didn't trust you..." He paused. I felt something wet come down my shoulder. He was crying. I wanted to wipe those tears away but I can't. He broke me, made me the woman I am taday. "I know that I brike your heart. I really don't deserve someone like you, but I can't let you go. I couldn't sleep the nights when you weren't beside me.

He Loves Me... She Loves Me Not
This is a sequel to my story "Walk Me Down The Aisle" ___ It has been several months since our last conversation, and the details of that exchange have faded from my memory, clouded by a haze of deceit and regret. I've come to accept that perhaps our connection was not destined to endure, merely a fleeting respite from the trials and tribulations we each faced. My love for him once blinded me, yet in the aftermath, I am struck by how I projected an image of myself that fell short of authenticity. It took only a matter of months to realize my error and confront the truth that I had been so engrossed in my own pursuits and aspirations that I failed to recognize the depth of Scott's heartache. At this juncture, I find myself pondering the endless "what-ifs" and "what-might-have-beens." If only I had been sincere, open, and genuine from the start, perhaps our story would have taken a different turn. I once coveted the adoration that fans bestow upon their idols, only to realize that I had squandered the chance for such a love to flourish. My actions have led to our parting, and for that, I am filled with remorse. Hindsight has illuminated the cracks in our foundation, revealing the fissures that widened into chasms over time. Now, I grapple with the weight of my own missteps, calling into question the integrity of the connection we once shared. The echoes of our fractured bond resonate within me, serving as a solemn reminder of love's fragility and the consequences of lost opportunities.Complete
