Pause Bracelet Novels & Stories

"See!" He grabs me by the wrist, the stale popcorn falling to the floor. The contact combusts an unbelievable rush that spreads up my arm from the simple touch, enough to make me pull from his grip. Not familiar with the way my body is reacting to him. I rub my wrist, eyeing him warily.

Maze is still wearing that flirty smile and I can't help but to look at him incredulously while trying to compose myself. I then glared at Pear and saw that she's blushing while looking at Maze. She even put some of her hair at the back of her ear as if that could make her look candid and sweet. Ha! What the hell?! "W-well, I only based my answer on the symptoms shown--"

He slowly lifted his hand, revealing Phoebe’s delicate gold bracelet I gave her on her sixteenth birthday. I snatched it from him, my fingers shaking as I traced the familiar design. It was scratched, and slightly bent, like it had been ripped off. A sob built in my throat, but I forced it down. The bracelet was delicate, a thin band of gold that shimmered under the light. It wasn’t extravagant, but it held sentimental value beyond measure. A single, small heart-shaped charm dangled from it, engraved with P.S., Phoebe’s initials. I had it custom-made for her sixteenth birthday, a symbol of love and protection, something she could always carry with her.

Stanley took a seat beside the love of his life and watched her bring out the so-called gifts Jake bought. The first thing Lauren reached for was a beautiful Coloured jewellery box. She opened it and came across one of the most beautiful bracelets she had ever seen. There were three bracelets in the box, one for her, the other one for Stanley and the smallest one was no doubt for peanut. They all had engraved words on them. Stanley and Lauren's bracelet had the word 'Stanlaur' and love signs on them while peanut's own had the word "baby stanlaur" engraved on it.

They sat there for a moment. The only sounds in the room were their quiet breaths. Their footsteps echoing softly throughout the empty restroom. The ticking of the grandfather clock somewhere far away in the distance. They listened to its rhythm until Luna pulled back, resting her head on his shoulder again. Alaric looked down, catching sight of the bracelet she wore around her wrist. A simple silver band with tiny white flowers embroidered onto it. It reminded him of the sunflower bracelet his grandmother had given him when he was younger. He smiled faintly at the memory, running his thumb across the band.

Blaze wrapped his hand around my waist and I placed my hand on his chest lightly. “And done!”, Dad said. “You two come home at midnight.” “Understood.”, Blaze said. “Oh! I almost forgot. I got a little something for you.”, Blaze stated as he opens a box with a beautiful silver bracelet with royal blue diamonds on it which was also to the ring finger. “It’s so beautiful…”, My voice trails off in awe as Blaze puts it on for me. “It’s a present for you. Happy birthday, Aell.”, Blaze says to me and my eyes widened as he hugged me and so did dad.

The weight of that hit different. I exhaled slowly. “Okay.” No argument. If that’s what it takes to give them peace of mind, I’ll accept it. Papa stepped closer after he removed a weird shaped bracelet from his packet like he planned this already. He removed something from it like a tiny needle and pressed it lightly against my wrist. I felt a small sting, sharp but quick. Then warmth spread under my skin like something settled there. “That’s the tracker,” he said. “And the mole?” I asked.

Jill asked curiously. She knew Violet was not a religious person, so the bracelet with a cross must be for someone else. Violet said happily, “It’s for my uncle. He has been religious recently and he wants the bracelet blessed by the famous Pastor Angelo, but he couldn’t get it and felt bad about it. “Since his birthday is around the corner, I asked Kane to help me get it.” Kaze smiled and said, “It’s difficult to even see ten bracelets blessed by Pastor Angelo in a single year. Each bracelet is unique and has its own value. Only the rich and powerful could obtain it. Since they are all rich, no one would release it to the market.”

They had breakfast in peaceful silence as Cyrus went through his tablet to see if any important information was sent by Creed but nothing. Hazel looked at him for a second before placing the empty tray on the bed. She moved to the side table and pulled a small box out. “Cyrus.” He hummed looking up at her. She gestured for him to come to her. Frowning he placed the tablet on the side table and made his way to her. She held his wrist making him sit beside her on the bed. Pulling his wrist up she opened the box and pulled out a steel bracelet with a snake carved over it. It was the same bracelet she bought that day. And now she understood why she bought it thinking about him.

He handed the cotton candy to me. We continued walking around while we are eating. Well, what should I buy for him? A bracelet would be fine. As decided, I grab his wrist and dragged him into the bracelet shop next to the teddy bear shop. I headed to the bracelet shop while he entered the Teddy bears shop. A cute little blue and red bracelet caught my attention and of course this red one is mine while the other was for him. Suddenly, the sparks of the keychains at the corner were cute, so maybe I'll buy this one either afterward, they pack what I bought, I entered the Teddy bears shop and I saw Acquirer paying at the counter so I just waited for him in front of this shop. " OW FUCK." I curse
