' Some People Are Meant To Fall In Love With Each Other, But Not Meant To Be Together.'
Carver. The son of a Criminal.
Iris. The shut in.
I cant. Iris never did do well with strangers. Comfort him. She reminded herself. She thought for a moment before she lifted her hand, and covered his eyes.
'see no evil' she muttered.
Wow. Carver was shocked at first, nearly even pushing away her hand. It was only when she spoke that he realised. Evil. My Dad. Not knowing what else to do, Carver repeated the action, swiftly lifting his hand and covering her eyes too.
'If I'm not allowed to see it. Neither are you.' He said. Bringing a strange comfort to both of them.
Iris smiled. Knowing he couldn't see her.
Carver smiled. Knowing she couldn't see him.
'This isn't the end.' She spoke.

"Hell no. You don't get to just barge back into my life and tell me who I can and can't date." "Well, then, you must have lost your fucking mind, in the time that I was gone, if you think I'm just gonna do nothing about that." "Do nothing about me dating? Who are you, my father?" I questioned, turning to walk away from him. I was sick of talking to him and going in circles. "You're actually a child." "No, I'm a grown ass man, Iza. I just don't like the idea of other boys touching you." "Fuck you and your ideas." I turned, narrowing my eyes at him and flicking him off with both hands.

"I'm a messed up girl." Sigh, peek through lashes, then "Most of the time I either overreact, or I don't react at all. There's a numb spot where my heart should've been and mouth knows nothing but sarcasm." Lip bite, looking away "I've seen too much to make me this. " Eyebrow raised, then "You're a messed up girl." A light nod making the dark tousled hair bounce. "You don't know how to react or how to listen to your heart." Fidgeting with fingers, Is he nervous? "You're not sarcastic you're defensive." Smirk. Damn right he can't be nervous. "You haven't seen too much, you've seen one side of life for too long." Another smirk. Alright, where's the police? Trouble is on its way. "It's about time you see the better side". "I don't want you to be my superman, or batman or ironman or-." Another sigh, then "I'm not a mission! I can't be saved" Smirk, then. "I'm not saving you, you don't need to be saved." Smile, wait what? "Babe I'm Your-Man, and I'm here to give you a good time" Book 1 of 'SuperHero' Series.Complete
What If | #Wattys2020
COMPLETED "We may be meant for each other, who knows? You followed your path and I followed mine until they crossed and we met. And that's some sort of destiny, this I know. But once we started walking together, you wrapped your hand in mine, and that was the only thing I could think of. I forgot about my path, I let everyone who put a step on it litter, I didn't ever clean it up. I didn't care as long as you were with me." His lips met when he stopped talking. "Shit, I'm such a girl." I smiled softly. He had such a deep soul. I wanted to save him, I had to save him. He was beautiful, worth anything. Copyright© Laura LeonelliComplete
Someone Willing to Stay
"Damn it, Mason, you can't fix me. I'm not some used car that needs an oil change." I'm standing at the edge of my driveway. If I take one step towards that house, then I go back to my life. The life I've had since Mason left. Since he abandoned me. If I turn around. If I take one second to look into his eyes. I don't think I'll be able to resist throwing myself in his arms. "I'm shattered, Mason. Like a dusty vase that's been ignored for too long." "You know the best thing about broken vases, Mel? You just need three things to make them whole." I decide to go along with his speech. "Faith, trust, and pixie dust?" I muse. "Tape, glue, and someone willing to fix it. And I'm right here, Mel."Complete
FIRST LOVE
He took a whiff of his cigarette before pulling me close to him. My heart was thumping so hard against my chest that I was afraid he'd feel it as I was pressed so tightly against him. He lowered his lips to mine and I instinctively opened my mouth as I captured the smoke. I wanted nothing more than to cough but I was dead set on proving to him that I wasn't as stuck up as he thought I was. He looked at me intently and I could see the glaze covering his eyes. "You passed" He said and I let out the breath I was holding. I passed. That was all that mattered to me. He smiled at me and I couldn't help myself as I was affected by him so I returned his smile.

The Vipers Temptation | Completed
After a failed attempt at a relationship, I try to make it on my own. However, I end up with a new neighbor who exudes charm, danger, and sexual energy as if it's a job. To make matters worse, I find myself semi-kidnapped by the same dangerous, foul-mouthed, rude neighbor who turns out to be a part of the Italian Mafia. Now, I'm stuck riding shotgun while being chased by gun-wielding maniacs on our way to someplace "safe." I'm beginning to think this is my new reality. *Trigger Warning* Graphic violence, explicit mature scenes, and non-consensual touching (not from the main love interest).Complete
