The years had passed, life had moved forward, but the memory of him lingered like a shadow that refused to fade....
And fate, being cruel as ever had brought them under the same sunset, in matching colors, in a foreign city, only to remind her that it had always been a mirage.....

And Still, I loved you.
They were never supposed to meet again, but fate had other plans. They were never strangers. They just became people who knew everything about each other, Except how to fix what they broke. She loved him like it was the only thing keeping her from falling apart. He left like he couldn't feel it. Years passed. Cities changed. Names got softer on unfamiliar lips. But silence never erased the way they ended. And when fate threw them back into the same room, One bleeding, Other one breaking, The past didn't knock. It kicked the door down. This is not a story of falling in love. It's what happens after.
Duskwood - A Dark Descent
A collection of dark, angsty, and bittersweet one-shots. ~*~ Since she'd forced him to allow himself to feel his emotions, they were on a hairpin trigger and she was never sure when she'd pull on one. He'd spent years planting landmines in the ether of his thoughts in order to protect himself. Then came she, dancing around them, pushing his buttons, and falling in love with him. The price she paid for that, his temporary visits and his leaving, was worth the agony they left behind. Sometimes, she would go so long without seeing him that her mind almost convinced her he was fictional by the time he finally fell through her window. Now he was here, he'd become real again. She could touch, kiss and hug him-love him. ~*~ The above excerpt is from, Worth the Pain.Complete
Where Dreams Remember: I'll Always be Here
Some dreams are just fragments - light and sound, fleeting and strange. But others... They settle into your chest like old memories, soft and impossible to forget. This is a story about one of those dreams. About a girl whose quiet heart began to remember a life she had never lived - not here, anyway. And a boy whose presence crossed time, space, and reason. A boy who said nothing at first... Only smiled. Only stayed. Together, they built a world between sleep and waking - a place of benches under cherry blossoms, of whispered comfort, of guitar strings and warm hands. And every time she returned, the dream knew her name. But the lines between dreaming and remembering began to blur. One day, she would open a photo... And realize it wasn't just a dream after all. Because when love is real - real enough to survive distance, silence, and the pull of two different dimensions - it doesn't disappear. It waits. It remembers. It protects. And it whispers... "I'll always be here."Complete
