Rest Your Head On My Shoulder Novels & Stories

Instead, I just nod, resting my head on his shoulder as his arms tighten around me, holding me close. As I lean against his shoulder, my mind is still racing. The warmth of his embrace feels grounding, steady in a way I haven’t let myself feel around him. I close my eyes, just for a moment, to let the feeling sink in, to let myself savour the comfort that his presence offers, even if I don’t understand it yet. Damien shifts slightly, adjusting his hold on me, and his hand starts rubbing gentle circles on my back. The tension in my muscles begins to fade, melting under his touch.

I mumbled, dizzy, trying to push myself upright again. "Hey, hey," Warren said softly, his voice a rough whisper. "Take a break, V." "I’m fine." "You’re not." His tone was gentle but firm. "Rest your head on me. It’s okay." I hesitated. But my body overruled my mind. I let my head drop onto his shoulder, exhaling shakily as I leaned into him. His steady breathing was like an anchor in a storm. The rise and fall of his chest steadied the tremor in mine.

I remain still as he lays his head on my shoulder, his harsh breaths fanning my neck as he speaks. "I need you, Carson. "

There’s no way I can take that much downtime, not with what I found. “Luna, you have to understand …” Wendy sucks in a breath and both she and Yorick start shaking their heads violently, letting me know I need to shut up. “No, Jude, what YOU need to understand is that I released you with orders to rest and get better. How about you raise your right arm over your head for me.” I grit my teeth. I already know I can’t. My shoulder is still throbbing this morning.

Is that my fault? I turned to her to say something else but found the beautiful red-headed girl, asleep on my shoulder. I smiled and placed my head on top of hers, letting myself drift off into a night of uninterrupted sleep. What was to happen tomorrow, would happen tomorrow... There was no point of worrying tonight. ***

"Ethan, now I'm sure. Everyday I live with you I feel happy, and this's exactly what I want...I'm really clear about my choice." Anna stood fronting the sea with her head on Ethan's shoulder, her eyes closed. She looked dreamy and beautiful in the moonlight. Ethan gazed at her tenderly, his voice soft. "Thank you, Anna." "Finally, you are here." Ethan picked Anna up from behind and twirled her around on the beach. Their laughter was floating far on the sea. They were bathed in the moonlight, which was soft and agreeable. Anna clung to Ethan's chest with her arms around his neck.

I glanced at him. Is he sleeping? Did he fall asleep just like that? Why does he look so tired? Wait, what should I do? Ays! Why did he suddenly lean on my shoulder? Other people were starting to look at us! It's embarrassing! When I felt his head about to fall, I held him by the cheek. I supported him so that his head wouldn't fall. I fixed his head while still holding him. He looks tired and sleepless. I feel his deep breathing. I couldn't do anything else. Should I push him away so he won't lean on my shoulder?

But right now, as Oliver leans his head on my shoulder and the quiet stretches out around us, I don’t feel wrong. I feel free.

I cut the distance between us to lean comfortably on his arm. Various beautiful things about our relationship kept spinning in my mind. About our lovemaking every night. About Andreas's flirting, that always makes me blush. About many things. I rest my head on Andreas' shoulder and close my eyes. "Andreas, I'm sleepy. I want to sleep on your shoulder for a while." He then nodded and lowered his shoulders for me.

I ask him. "Just a little dizzy," he says and I pull him closer. "Lay your head on my shoulder. You'll feel better. If you don't, just tell me and I'll take you to the hospital," I tell him as his head gently lands on my shoulder. He sighs heavily. His scent... is so refreshing. "Kyrah?" he coos. "Yeah?" I respond.
