Heaven Can Wait Novels & Stories

I thought Ian had time to watch me perform and excitedly told him that I had reserved a seat for him in the front row. I also told him how much it would mean to me to have him there. However, it was silent for a long time on the other end of the call before Ian finally spoke. "I'm sorry, Sienna... Can you come to Purple Inn? Eva is having trouble closing the deal with Mr. Walter." "But today's my first performance on stage." The stage lights were just ahead, shimmering with bright colors. It was supposed to be my moment.

(Author’s POV) Ruby remained trapped in darkness long after the mysterious man left the room. The warmth of his touch still lingered on her cold fingers. His voice echoed repeatedly inside her mind, ‘I’ve loved you for five years. I’ll wait’. Her heart still fluttered uncontrollably remembering the tenderness in his tone. Everything felt unreal. Just moments ago, she had awakened to the horrifying truth that she had been unconscious for two years. Before she could even process that shock, an unknown man had entered her darkness like warmth in winter and confessed feelings so deep they made her chest ache.

Levi noticed and stopped, turning back to wait for her. Her face flushed even more. She lowered her head and jogged to close the distance. Just as they neared the apartment, Maude's phone buzzed. Orson had texted from another number. "Today's the last day of the two weeks. I'll be waiting for you to come back." Maude blocked his number once more and tucked her phone away. Before long, they reached the apartment. Levi turned to face her. "Goodnight, Maude." As she reached for the door, she felt his eyes on her, just like every night before.

Send your dreams where nobody hides Give your tears to the tide No time No time It's official, Wait is now my new favorite song. It's calming and distracting enough. It makes me feel like I'm in a different world, one where I can go to sleep and actually dream peacefully. But unfortunately I'm not in that world, I'm in this one, this never ending nightmare that is my life. I have to say, if it weren't for my unconditional love for Sky, I would save Soliaire the trouble and just kill myself because this is seriously getting out of hand.

I didn't go anywhere during the two months of summer vacation. Instead, I only concentrated on studying Ethan's notes. Mom couldn't stand seeing me like that anymore and asked worriedly, "You don't have to study so hard, do you, honey?" I didn't even look up as I answered, "I want to get into Hareford University, so yes!" "Hareford?" Mom asked in shock. "Yes! I have to get in!" … Just after the start of my senior year, I heard an even more exciting piece of news—Ethan had won first prize in the international math competition and had been admitted into MIT in advance.

Aaron met her eyes. He didn’t nod. He didn’t shake his head. He looked away. Later, when Mark stepped outside to take a call, Lily leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes. “Do you ever feel like you’re trying to convince yourself of something?” she asked quietly. Aaron’s chest tightened. “Yes.” Her eyes opened. “What do you do about it?” He hesitated. “I wait. I see if the feeling changes.” “And if it doesn’t?” “Then I listen to it.”

When I refused to see him, he started waiting outside my door day and night. Through the peephole, I saw the way he barely had a shut-eye, afraid I'd slip out while he wasn't looking. I eventually caved after three days. Ian stopped contacting Francesca for the next three years. It was also the happiest three years we've been together. Once, I was involved in a car accident. It wasn't anything serious, but I was unfortunately left with a broken leg. The moment Ian found out, he immediately ended his meeting early to fly back. With the direct flights sold out, he took connecting flights and travelled for over 10 hours instead.

Is a good demon even a thing? Heaven by Kane Brown came on next and I decided to give country music a try at distracting me. I had asked Damien all these questions about the afterlife and Heaven, but I hadn’t asked him about Hell or anything about him, really, and it must have upset him a little. I was being greedy and selfish, and I sighed with guilt as I listened to the song. Maybe Damien could be my Heaven in Hell? The song is about Heaven on Earth, is Heaven in Hell even a thing?
