You know that feeling when you're tired but you can't sleep? That's basically my life. All I want to do is sleep, but I can't. I mean it's not like I've never had sleep, but when I do get to close my eyes, it's not very long before I wake up.
ELisa Roberts had black hair to contrast her ghostly pale skin and match the bags under her eyes. She was always tired but unable to sleep. Not that her family knew. In fact, she may as well live alone. Her mom is always at "work" or getting drunk, her dad had left her when she was three, and she had no other siblings. It's not like she had friends to confide in, either, seeing as nobody wants to hang out with the girl with raccoon eyes. So Elisa is left to deal with her insomnia, and no matter how many melatonin's she takes, she'll never sleep.

Stand By Me (lexi and fezco fanfic, euphoria) COMPLETED
I felt his body close to mine, I knew it was him because my body awoken in way it hasn't before. Not since I met him. I turned around, my back leaning against the fridge door. We were so close, I watch his eyes travel up and down my body before he locks his lips quickly before meeting my eye. "fez" I whispered when our lips were inches apart, his body left mine suddenly and I watch as he walks towards the door. I frown as I watch him lean up grabbing the shutters to pull them down. "fez you have a business to run" I spoke out, unsure of what is actually happening. I know what I want to happen, what I dream would happen. But I've always been a dreamer. "I have a big problem-" I heard his voice ring out, as the shutters hit the ground then he locked the door. He turned around to look at me, his eyes were darker. He looked a thousand times hotter. "a big fucking problem" he said again as he started making his way towards me, his hand come up and knocked on the fridge door. After a moment I heard the door out the back open and close, ashtray had left. "what's the problem? Maybe I-I can help" I felt so many emotions right now, some I'm used to and some that are fucking new. "I doubt that-" he mumbles as he was once again infront of me, one hand was above my head leaning on the fridge door. The other came down to touch my face. "I can't get you out my fucking head, your like a drug" he suddenly said before his hands go to my waist and he pulls my body against his before slamming his lips into mine. ~~~ Nothing in life was easy, including life itself but when you find someone who makes it easier nothing else matters.

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.

Half Breed's Nightmare. (COMPLETED)
Audrey Mitchell is half werewolf half human. She has been moving town to town with her father for the past eight years, ever since she was ten. When she moved from the small little town outside Dallas Texas, to the town of Palatka Florida, she didn't think anything would change. She and her father would go to a new pack, he would train the upcoming alphas, and check to see if everything was going well. Meaning take notes and help better the pack. Then they would leave after a year or so to the next pack. Simple right? Well maybe not. Audrey has had nightmares since she was nine. I don't mean nightmares like some big bad monster is chasing her. Even though that can be the case at times. I mean someone (a man) the same man, tries (and succeeds) to kill her almost every night. What's different when she moves this time doesn't have anything to do with her nightmares, none whatsoever. No, the change in this move comes in the form of a different guy. But wait! It gets better! He turns out to be next in line alpha. And better yet! He's also her mate. This sarcastic eighteen year old spits fire (in the form of words) and doesn't put up with anything. But underneath that hard exterior is a girl who's afraid of her own dreams and the threat they cause her. One Human. One Werewolf. One King. Three men in her life that all want something from her. She just has to figure out what that is. Love and heartbreak are inevitable. Betrayal and Trust will be revealed. What could go wrong? Probably a lot, but still, what could go wrong?
