First Step 2 Forever My Story Novels & Stories

My Forever Man 1 Hello, my name is Emma. I’m a twenty-one-year-old woman and I have had a rough last few years in my young love life. All I seem to do is work eat and sleep. So as a single woman I decided to look for my perfect man. I didn’t want to end up as a crazy old cat lady. So where do you find a man nowadays. Bars, churches, and the singles in my area will not work. I don’t drink and bars don’t bring the kind of catch I want. With not having a man in my life I have had a lot of spare time.

Conrad barked in the yard, "Shirley, I think you've gone insane! I'm here trying to warn you—Horace is just a useless man! If you know what's good for you, you'd better find a way to break off the engagement. Otherwise, you'll regret it!" I couldn't be bothered to raise an eyebrow at him. I just slowly opened my WhatsApp. [When do we make the next move?] My current teammate was clearly more proactive than the one outside. I typed, [No rush. Let's watch the show unfold.]

She told me that judging by how this year was the ninth year she had loved me, it proved that our relationship could last forever. Upon hearing that, I instantly recalled a quote, "If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with," in a reply I once stumbled upon on the internet. At that time, I was still doubtful about this statement, but now, I supposed that the user was right. Unexpectedly, Ashley divorced during the second year of my marriage with Luna. That day, she contacted me. She said that she had nowhere to go and sleep and that I was the only one she could rely on.

“You doing okay.” “Holden, it feels so good. It hurts a little but please don’t stop. And before I forget to tell you. I love you too. I have never stopped loving you. I am so glad I waited for this. You were meant to be my first and only.” That declaration of love from her made this feel like my first time too. No matter who came before her, they didn’t matter. This is the start of my life all over again.

The music starts to play, and I begin to sing. [Anywhere you are, I am near] [Anywhere you go, I'll be there] I sing it, and I stare at Stephanie's eyes. I remember the days we were just dating happily. Whenever she wants to go, I accompany her to be happy. [Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see] [How every single promise I'll keep] I always keep my promise for you, and I feel ruined. Steph's promised me to love me forever. She promised not to leave me behind.

I was never going to handle that. “I told you I don’t do temporary love, but…” That was what she said when we were in Peru. Did she change her mind? Was she here for a little while before returning to Peru? “I have been thinking that… that I want a forever love.” My heartbeats quickened. “You know, somebody I could be with and love with all my heart until my very last breath, so Xander, will you be… will you be my forever?” My mate was giving me another chance. She came all the way from Peru to offer me one more chance.

“Any problem?” Delinda shakes her head. “We don’t know this man and I’m afraid he might be trespassing.” “Delinda, we can’t be doing this all the time. I know this man… I personally helped this man.” The woman sighs. Please refrain from your constant harassment of the new club members.” The woman just huffs and leaves with her partner, muttering something about being too young for her anyway and not her type. “Thank you…” I trail off. “Felicity… Felicity Bernard.” She takes my hands in her and shakes it gently. “You’re the junior they sent. Thought you’d have been a lot older.”

The words are screaming through my skull. I lost my virginity to my brand new stepbrother. I am completely and utterly fucked.

It's breathtaking. “I didn’t believe in happy endings. I thought love was a beautiful lie we told ourselves. Then you came along, crashing into my life like a hurricane in heels. I never wanted commitment, I wanted escape routes. Then one night turned into mornings I didn’t want to leave. Then your toothbrush showed up in my bathroom. Then I caught myself smiling at nothing just because you texted. You did the impossible. You made me believe love is real, true love is real. So now I’m standing here, asking you to do one more impossible thing… Spend the rest of your life with me. Be my forever Phoebe”

And that is a story that will last forever. END OF BOOK
