deaf germany romance

Rachel likes photographs because you can't tell by looking at a photo that anything is wrong with her or her family: The grief cannot be seen behind the glistening smiles. Makeup and photo editing hide the exhaustion caused by not sleeping. And Rachel's ears look like anybody else's.

Rachel is pushed beyond many of her comfort zones when a new renter moves into the basement apartment. Are his intentions to befriend her sincere? Or does he only pity her like everyone else does?

When communication is strenuous, they must ask themselves: is their love worth the effort?

✗ "I'm sorry," I choked, the tears spilling down my cheeks. He shook his head and pulled me closer again. "Don't be sorry, just work on getting better," He said, rubbing calming circles on my back while I cried into his chest. His arms tightened around me and he pressed his lips against the top of my head, making me cry even harder. "I had never meant to hurt anyone. I just wanted to be good enough," I whispered. The guilt weighing heavy on my shoulders. "Briar," He said quietly, "You're so much more than good enough." ✗ Meet Briar Martin.

Lost Without You by oxCJSxo

I watched as he rubbed the back of his neck and turned around, walking away but stopping after a few steps and he turned around to face me, with a smirk on his lips, "With a face like yours, I wish I was blind." And that's when everyone around us burst into laughter. I thought this man was going to hug me and make me feel safe, but instead, he decided to push me to the ground and make everyone laugh. I've been called things and people have said some mean stuff to me but never did anything like that hurt as much as it did now. But why? Amelia Taylor, a girl living a hard life. Always going into hiding with her father and always fed lies from him. He makes her work when he needs the money, not to pay any bills but to try and pay off some dangerous people who threaten to kill her father, he has a problem with money as he always finds an excuse to use Amelia's hard earning cash for alcohol. He controls the way she lives, letting her out to work and ever so rarely to go shopping or go out with a friend. All Amelia wants is to be on her own, away from the lies, away from the people who don't care about her anymore, away from the wolves and those who hunt them.

Destined By Fate by LoraWhite6

Kendall has always lived a quiet life in a small town in Illinois with her family, friends, and boyfriend Jordan. Her life had been mostly happy other than when her best friend moved away when she was 10. It took her years to get over that loss. Then several years later, tragedy struck when her father passed away suddenly and Kendall was forced to move with her mom closer to Chicago where she could find a job to support the two of them. Little does Kendall know that she is in for the surprise of a lifetime. From the book.... As he catches up to me, he grabs my arm swings me around and with one swift movement he ushers me into a nearby empty classroom with the lights off. He cages me in against the wall. His close proximity is making me dizzy and my mind is thinking very dirty thoughts. Wait no. I can't think like that anymore. "Kendall." He says hungrily. "You are mine and only mine. You drive me wild and no one else can have you." He says as he attacks my lips. It feels so amazing I can't help but kiss him back. I run my hands through his beautiful hair and he groans into the kiss. Man I don't want this to ever end. I feel drunk on him. I don't think I can let him go. He stops suddenly to finish his thoughts. "No one can make you feel like this. Or kiss you here...." He says as he kisses down my neck. I moan and he smirks pulling his face impossibly close to mine. "..or touch you." He says as he takes his hand and brushes it lightly down my arm and he snakes it back around my back pulling me even closer if that is possible. He finally stops at my ass which he squeezes delightfully and I hum in response. Warning: Contains graphic sexual content. Read at your own discretion. You will not be warned ahead of time.

The Broken Pieces Left Behind by jenierachel

But the more Becca tells him that she wants nothing to do with him the more intrigued he is with her.

Between Glances by CampusRomance

She sees him every day, and each time, her heart races a little faster, hoping for something more than the casual, fleeting glances they exchange. He's charming, quiet, and always so close-within arm's reach, yet always just out of her grasp. Their interactions are brief, often accompanied by a charged silence that neither dares to break. There's an unspoken tension between them, a magnetic pull that neither seems able to resist, but something always keeps them from stepping past that delicate line between familiarity and desire. Whether it's the weight of their unacknowledged feelings or the fear of disrupting the fragile balance they've created, they remain suspended in a world of what-ifs. As their glances linger longer and the silence stretches between them, the question remains: will they find the courage to close the distance, or will they continue dancing around their feelings, too afraid to leap into the unknown?
