Charlie knew he would have to give her up in the end. He knew when the sun comes up, he'll have to go. But tonight, he needs to hold her so close and hope for the best, hope for the impossible. He needs her, but she is leaving and he knew she was going to leave in the end but stupidly, inevitably, he had to fall in love. They had been meeting each other at night for a while, and she didn't try to seduce him, but her little quirks and flirts had drawn him in even closer as time went by. He won't be able to make her stay, for their friends, for him, even for herself. They both knew all too well that she needed to leave, and he needed her, and she was going to leave.
God, she was going to leave. No matter what. And in the end...
She left.

"Mallie," he whispered, "listen to me. You and only you are the girl that matters to me the most in this world, ok?

At an age when I should have been dancing under the stars, laughing with friends, living recklessly-I was caged. A life wasted on pain, drowned in tears. A hollow existence, a nightmare I couldn't wake up from. But I ran. And now I'm here. Safe. Loved. No longer just surviving-but living. Wrapped in the warmth of friendship, held in his arms. And for the first time in years, I feel whole. But peace never lasts, does it? Because soon, I will have to choose. Between the man I love and the darkness I escaped.

Then she walks in. She doesn't try to impress me. She doesn't need to. Just by existing, she undoes me. She is fire and shadows, warmth and distance. She steals my breath and doesn't even realize it.

This Love: Spencer Reid
spencer, i'll remember how i'd loved you. even after i saw the hate behind your sweet eyes and messy statistics. even after i heard casually cruel words leave the same sugary lips that you used to plant soft kisses on my cheeks. even after i saw you kill right in front of me. the loss of your presence would still hurt the same. it probably wouldn't even matter what you did or didn't do because at night, i would still be crying into my pillow about everything that happened to you regardless. that's another thing that hurts so bad about this all. your loss. it's obvious, i know that. but i feel so alone. and you're actually gone this time.Complete
DAYLIGHT - A Tayvis-inspired love story
In a billionaire superstar's world, where genuine connections must be untangled from the brightness of spotlights and the shadows of fame, Taylor's heart was guarded stronger than ever, yet brimming with light and kindness, but also quiet sadness -like a summer meadow under a sky full of stars, like midnight rain drenching the earth. Meanwhile, Travis' heart was open and steady - like a quiet ocean of warmth, unshaken by storms, like sunshine reflecting on a clear, blue ocean. It was the kind of love she hadn't dared to trust, until now. Their first connection - a bold, slightly silly gesture involving a friendship bracelet with his phone number woven into the beads - was sweeter than fiction, charming and just a little awkward. Though it never reached her that night, his attempt to get her attention marked the start of something extraordinary, neither of them would have expected. Like ever. Fate's invisible strings pulled them closer, unraveling the barriers between their worlds. Love bloomed softly at first, like the golden rays of dawn peeking through the night, until it shone with the golden promise of something lasting - like daylight -, and suddenly everything had changed. But the road to daylight wasn't without its shadows. Fame, fear, and the weight of two very different worlds stood between them. Yet with every step, love found its way, glowing brighter than they'd ever dreamed. But in a world of spotlighted chaos and hidden fears, will this love be enough to light up their way? ***** WARNING: My stories are cheesy, dramatic, and made out of romance. I love exploring how people get to know each other and fall in love (and this will take a while!), I adore the shipping, the journey to connection, and the way characters interact, including all the nuances of their relationships and the smut - everything about it! If that's not your cup of tea, then "DAYLIGHT" might not be for you.
