Now And Forever By Susane Colasanti Novels & Stories

--- Back to the present: “It’s been three years now and I still don't know how to get them out of my head. Every time I spotted Ever publicly, they returned and each time they did, it got louder than the last.” “Would we ever get a chance, Ever?” I wondered. “You didn't even look at me once, just once, as you followed him away. Was this what we had become?” “How easily you had followed him and left my gaze trailing behind your shadow. My imagination of both of you entwined tortures me and I don't know how to make it stop. Please don't do this, Ever…”

It felt just like five years ago, when Penelope and I had just gotten together and gone on a trip to Redstone Flats. We got lost out there and walked for a full day and night. It was completely silent, not a sound anywhere. Back then, I held Penelope's hand, and she signed that if we died together, it wouldn't be a bad ending for our love. She always told me love should last until death. But now, our love was already dead, and we had finally reached the end. - After I got home, my whole body went limp, and I collapsed onto the bed.

Hers. Finally. Completely. Forever. THE END

Forever his. THE END

*** SADE As we walked back down the aisle together, hands clasped, laughter and tears following us, I knew one thing with absolute certainty. Forever wasn’t just a word anymore. It was us. AUTHOR’S NOTE: *exhales* yeah, it has come to the end beautiful people. Finally, I guess? I want to sincerely thank you beautiful who stayed till this very moment. It means the world to me, honestly. Thank you and I love you. See you in my next book ^^

The tiny, folded slip of paper , Ethan Grant’s phone number , had become my personal religion. For fourteen agonizing days, it had lived tucked deep inside the stitching of my uniform apron, a burning coal against my skin. Two weeks. I had survived two weeks of perfect silence, two weeks of scrubbing floors and polishing secrets, pretending the warm pressure of his lips on my cheek had been nothing but a fever dream.

"Of course, that has always been the plan," "I love you, forever, Mrs. Katherine Salvador," "I love you more, my husband, my everything," He opened his arms and I got in without hesitating, loving how perfect my life is now and knowing it would be like this for a long, long, time. The End

All in. Forever.

His face was just inches from hers, and for a moment, everything else faded away. She hadn't noticed him this closely before. Nate's breathtaking handsomeness was impossible to ignore. His blue eyes were intense, framed by thick, dark lashes that any woman would envy. Up close, his jawline looked even sharper, and his smooth black hair was perfectly styled, giving him an effortlessly suave look. The scent of his cologne—a mix of something fresh and slightly musky—washed over her, making her momentarily forget how much she hated him for overworking her.
