“I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t say it right now.”

My voice echoing through the air, making my words loud and ugly.

“You are such a piece of shit. You know that?!” He begans to storm down the cellar to his room, until I grab his arm. “I know you want to just run away but just-“ I paused for a moment.

“Listen, for the love of god, listen to me even if you hate me and don’t care to listen just.” M...

“I knew I’d regret it if I didn't say it right now.”

“I can't. You know I can't…”

“Because you promised?” I yell hysterically. We'd been over this many times, and I respected him for it, but I could not keep going back and forth.

So I tell him, “This needs to end, Finn.”

I feel tears leaking from my eyes, falling down my cheeks as he says the words that I had feared for weeks. But as he says ...

I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t say it right now. Yet somehow my nerves felt even more on edge once I did. I’ve said it to her a dozen times before, though she probably never heard me, why does it have to feel so different now?

“You love me?” She replied finally. She was staring at me, not in her usual curious way but with genuine shock. Had she really not known this whole time?

I took in a shar...

TW: Violence, death

Part two—POV: The fool

Never in my life did I believe joy was meant for someone like me—someone who has stained this world with blood and grief. I have killed. I have bled. I have caused suffering. And yet, here it is. A sliver of joy, carefully hidden away, meant for me.

_Her_.

The most beautiful soul I’ve ever laid eyes on, the only one I wish to look at. I can’t even recall...

“I love you.” He froze, his back to me. Swallowing the lump in my throat, I doubled down. “I love you.” He was completely still, save for a muscle jumping in his neck. Slowly, he turned to face me, his expression a kaleidoscope of emotions I couldn’t decipher.

“No you don’t.” He shook his head, ran his hands through his hair. Turned away from me again, then turned back. I couldn’t take my eyes o...

Once upon a time in a small town, there lived a vampire named Vlad. Vlad was over 100,000 years old and had seen it all. He was suave, charming, and had a killer sense of humor. But there was one thing missing in his eternal life - love.

Vlad had been eyeing his neighbor, a beautiful young woman named Sarah, for quite some time. He knew he had to make a move before it was too late. So one night, ...

“Look, I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t say it right now !”

My voice cracked .

My words unable to come out .

Then his voice .

A shout .

“Say it !”

Then it retreats to a whisper .

“Say it”

So I do .

Tell him everything .

How it happened .

Funny How mere words can make a difference.

But they did for me .

And they can for you .

So say it ....

The air was thick with things unsaid…

A quiet weight that pressed between us…

I felt the burden of every silence…

Those small truths…

Locked away…

Too fragile to speak about…

I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t say it right now…

But the words, they weren’t mine…

They trembled, waiting…

Stuck somewhere between hope and shame…

The moment stretched…

And I almost let it slip away…

And yet, I said it…

A...

“I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t say it now.”

Mateo’s eyes are green, with specks of brown. I never noticed that before. He continues.

“You know what, never mind sorry- this was stupid-“

“It’s not stupid.” I say. My heart beats faster. Weird. I’ve told this little fun fact about myself to random people all the time and never once has my body acted like this before.

“I have something to adm...

"You only live once!" was a line everybody knew.

Whether that be in shortened form "YOLO" or the words by themselves, everybody knew it.

Living scares me. I live in a world that feels like a prison cell. Sometimes I so badly want to break out if that cell. But I get a weird feeling in my chest. Was is panic? I am not sure was exactly the feeling is.

My mind shifts. One second I am desperate to ...
