I think one of the worst feelings is when you come to the realization that you're slowly drifting apart. You're slowly losing that one person who you thought you'd be with until you take your last breath. You're losing the one person who used to complete you, love you, make you laugh, make you smile, make you feel safe and secure, make you the happiest person on earth. But as I sit here now, watching our beautiful children, I try to pinpoint the exact point that we did drift in opposite directions. Your face flashes in my head, over and over, twisting the knife deeper into my heart. Maybe, just maybe, letting go would be easier than holding on, because holding on is causing me more pain than letting you go would. I can feel you slipping away just as I can feel the tears slipping down my cheeks. Quickly, quietly, sorrowfully.

Desdemona
You never know the fear of falling until you fall, or the shame of tears until you cry, or to guard your heart until it's been broken. Desdemona Ezra, only child of the divorced couple Carrie and James, has been broken, again and again. Her father left her and her mom when she was just a kid, and life went on. But then he came back, in need of money and a place to stay, spouting lies of false love, daring to even pretend to care. When he left the second time, he left both Dess and Carrie broken and bleeding. Carrie needed stitches, and Dess was in a coma. When she awoke she was not the carefree girl she'd been before, and trust was not something she believed in. So she broke her boyfriend's heart before he could break her's, and was on her own, a completely different person. Then she met Nott, someone more like her than she could had possibly imagined. With a past as painful as hers, Nott steps into Dessie's life and turns it upside down. Her life had already been upside down, so Nott mended her bleeding heart and made her believe in love and trust. But it wasn't over yet, and when her past threatens her future and her barely healed heart, decisions must be made by all involved. Carrie is engaged, Dess is in love, and they are finally getting back on their feet when their love and faith are tested with reappearances of those once closest to their heart. Deceit, pain, longing, tears, lust, fear, love. Some lies are better of believed, and some doors are better off locked. Follow Dess, Nott, Carrie, Phil, and others through the fear, laughter, uncertainty, love, doubt, lust and friendship that, luckily or not, comes with being human.Complete
I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy
CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

See you ✓
It's an excerpt from Victor Hugo's "Les Misérables". He says: "The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that it has come to be disbelieved in. Few people dare now to say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins, and in this way only." I slowly lifted my head towards Collin and I saw him locking his eyes on mine. It was that same glance I just read. It was so evident in him and I could feel it upon me. I became instantly vulnerable and when he pressed his lips to mine, time froze and an explosive ecstasy overwhelmed our whole beings. *** Jamie grew up in Green Hill, where she devoted herself entirely to painting, turning it into her career. Known for her creativity and the abstraction of her art, she gained a certain success that had made her traveling from city to city. At the peak of her career, temporarily staying in a place called Chaston for a few weeks, she met Collin - a charming young man whose appeal was difficult to overlook. Their first meeting felt like a spontaneous intense chemistry, none of them could fight back. Chaston was the beginning of a new adventure but will this shared and intimate energy last longer or forever, knowing she wouldn't stay there for long? "See you again" is a rich literary translated work filled with life turmoils and psychological transformations that will bring you shivers and emotions. Well, at least I hope so. • Original French title: Elle •Complete

Right Person At The Wrong Time
Conrad loves Brenda more than anything, but knowing his time is short and his body is failing, he decides to push her away-not out of cruelty, but out of desperation to spare her. He deliberately acts cold, distant, or even cruel, trying to make her hate him so she won't grieve him when he's gone. He believes that if she despises him, she'll move on faster, finding happiness without the burden of loving a dying man. **** Love isn't just about finding the perfect person; sometimes, it's about finding the right person at the worst possible moment. Life has a cruel sense of irony, bringing two souls together when circumstances just won't align-when one is ready to love and the other is not, or when timing itself becomes the enemy. They enter your life with everything you've ever wanted-understanding, chemistry, an unspoken connection-but it feels as if the universe is conspiring against you. Yet, even amid the heartache, there is a strange beauty in having known them. They leave an imprint on your heart, a quiet reminder that love was real, even if it wasn't meant to last. Sometimes, that's enough-to have experienced love with the right person, even at the wrong time.Complete
