Fear Of Falling Love Novels & Stories

“You think I can breathe if you collapse in front of me?” My heart squeezed painfully. “I don’t plan on collapsing.” “And if you do?” “I get back up.” “And if you can’t?” His voice broke. There it was. The real fear. Not power. Not reputation. Not markets. Losing me. I cupped his face. “You don’t get to fall apart before anything has even happened.” “I’m not falling apart.” “You were five seconds away from killing a man.” “For you.” “That’s not romantic,” I snapped. “That’s terrifying.”

He needed to figure out where their relationship was heading. Asides that, he needed to figure out his feelings about her. He knew he adored her and it was bordering on love but the truth of the matter was that he was scared. He was scared to love because he didn’t want his heart to get broken. No one knew it, not even Louis but Charlie had once loved before.

He sighed,holding his words in for a moment. "About yesterday..." He started and immediately her heart started thumping excessively. A sudden wave of anxiety and fear flushing through her skin. "I want you,I want you so badly that I wish you to be mine alone...." He inched closer to her while his eyes remained locked to her gaze. "But I'm scared. I'm scared of falling in love,I'm scared of committing myself to a relationship that I fear would later end up hurting me. I don't want to loose you,Zoey."

It makes me question my own path and the choices I've made. In his presence, my heart finds no rest. I used to ignore him, but now, every interaction, every encounter, even the mere thought of him, makes my heart race uncontrollably. I'm afraid he might hear the loud, wild beats that echo within me. If these are indeed the signs of falling in love, then perhaps I am destined for an uncertain path. Still, I believe I can give him everything, despite the risks involved. What if these feelings I have for him are true and genuine? What if I open myself up to love and end up losing?

I looked down, tears slipped down my cheeks. He reached for me and I stepped back. “Don’t,” I whispered. He froze. “I’m scared,” I said. “I’m scared of how much I’m falling for you. I’m scared of how much I like being here. I’m scared that if I let myself love you completely, I’ll disappear. And then Lila shows up saying all these things and I don’t know what’s real anymore.” He stared at me, pain flashed across his face. Then he moved, grabbed me, pulled me against his chest and kissed me desperately.

That felt almost impossible. Because dependence meant risk. And risk meant giving someone the power to hurt you. Her eyes closed briefly. “I think I’m afraid that if people see too much of me…” She hesitated. Adrian waited patiently. “…they’ll realize I’m not worth depending on.” The silence afterward felt enormous. Because that— that was the real fear beneath everything else. Not failure. Not instability. Rejection. The ancient human terror of becoming unlovable once fully seen. Adrian’s jaw tightened subtly.

In order to see the aurora with Alexander, I began planning a year in advance. Alexander and my adopted sister had already left me behind and gone to the destination ahead of time. When I arrived, no one answered the phone. I waited for ten hours before he finally returned my call. On the phone, Evelyn laughed excitedly, "Diana! I've already explored this entire city. Alex is so mature and charming—he planned everything in advance. I'm having such a wonderful time!" She chattered away, sharing her experiences, while Alexander occasionally play along to add details. The two of them had spent the holiday blissfully together like a pair of lovebirds. It was as if neither of them had noticed o

"Because it's way too obvious, man. I'm not blind." When Cassian stayed quiet, Fred asked, "You ever heard that saying?" Cassian shot him a questioning look. Fred poked right at his sore spot. "Feelings that arrive too late don't mean a damn thing." Cassian fell silent. He didn't need anyone to remind him of that. He was already living it. Fred looked at him. "You know what the most terrifying part of falling in love with someone is?" "Spit it out," Cassian muttered.

"Fuck, baby! I will not live without you! Don’t you understand that?" The desperate panic in his voice made everything click into place. He was afraid of love. Afraid of feeling it, of naming it, of surrendering to it. That’s why he was acting like this. That’s why he was so possessive. Possession and control he could understand. Love seemed new to him. The realization nearly made me smile. "I do understand, Kai. Because I feel everything you feel. And I know you feel the same way about me that I do about you." I ran my thumb over his bottom lip, holding his gaze. "I’m falling for you more and more every day."

As he slowly sat himself at the edge of the bed. My heart instantly sank the moment Felix disclosed that him and l would be moving in together. And all of the previous events that had taken place before l had fainted suddenly came rushing back to me. Suddenly l couldn’t control myself and I started to cry. The tears just started streaming down my cheeks and I couldn’t even stop them. “Leigh”, Felix began sympathetically. As he moved towards me from the edge of the bed. He slowly extended his hand towards me. Before he suddenly paused and retracted it.
