Here I Go On My Own Novels & Stories

Titan made his choice. And now… I’m making mine. “No more waiting,” I whisper into the darkness. “No more hoping.” It’s time to stand on my own. And this time, I’m not looking back.

No longer do I compromise myself for anyone. I can be just fine on my own.

I'm not going anywhere. Not ever again

I could have used a little self-trust right about now. ***

I whisper softly to myself— “Please… let this go right.” Hopefully it will....

"Well, i went to this spot I use to go to whenever I just want to be on my own and away from the world. My phone died and my car had a flat tire so I thought I'd be sensible to use a bus" "A bus? that is crazy to even imagine, do you realize who you are? no you don't use a bus for any reason". "There was no other way to reach out to anyone, and I didn't want to cause any concern, just decided to keep it to myself and come home peacefully". I sighed and raked my hair. "I'm never leaving you alone again, ever, no more breaks, just me and you till whenever ", he stated. He gave a small smile, "That's sweet ".

I stood alone in the shadows below the stage, digging my nails into my palms. It was the first time I realized that at the very depths of sadness, tears were impossible to hold in.

I wish Finn and I could have done it together, but he is still encouraging me, even though he isn’t here. I quickly wipe the tear away. I can do this. I take a shaky breath while my heart quickens. A cold sweat breaks out across my back as the reality of my decision finally sinks in. I’m going to go to classes by myself. My throat suddenly goes dry as a sense of dread washes over me. Maybe I wasn’t thinking clearly this morning. Can I change my mind? No. You have made your decision. Now, you must follow through with it.

I set the cup down and stood. Noah reached for my arm. “Where are you going?” “Out.” “Out where?” “I need something.” “Like water?” “Like a person.” He blinked. “Oh.” “I don’t want to be alone tonight.” He frowned. “Are you sure this is the best idea?” “No,” I said honestly. “But I’m doing it anyway.” He started to stand. “At least let me—” “I’ll be fine,” I said. “Stay. Have fun. Don’t worry about me.”

Every part of me screams to sit back down, and let Monique have her fun alone, while I remain in my safe, predictable world. But what if I regret never walking up to this hot stranger and doing something unholy tonight? I take a deep breath again and before I know it, I step forward. And for the first time in my life, I'm doing something for myself.
