Starting Over Without You Novels & Stories

My whole body felt weak and limp. After a long while, I whispered hoarsely, “Ron… what do I do now? I don’t know what to do. I don’t know how to start. I don’t know how to live anymore…” “Ethan…” he began. “Use this place as a sign of a new beginning. Start here. Rebuild your life here. Learn. Grow. Work. Move forward. Forget the past—forget your father’s family. Focus on building something for yourself. That is the only way to truly move on.”

"Then, what is it? You wasted my last dose of serum, and now I have to collect the ingredients all over again. Do you have any idea how dangerous the world out there is right now? And you call yourself my girlfriend? You're literally putting my life at risk for your so-called friend!" My fury was nearly overflowing, but I pushed it back down and raised my hand. "Take them away." Then, I told Yvonne, "I gave you a chance to live, Yvonne. That is already the best I can do, so don't push it. And we're done. You're not my girlfriend anymore. You're on your own now." The breakup was done. I walked to the meeting hall with the soldiers, and I didn't even turn back once.

“I’m speechless “I said quietly, my voice barely above a whisper. Zayn reached across the table, his hand tentative. “Aurora, I know we can’t just undo the past. But maybe… maybe we can start over. Just forget everything that happened before. I’d like to try again.” I blinked, my heart racing. Start over? Could I even do that? Could I pretend none of it ever happened? I wasn’t sure what to say, so instead, I smiled and shrugged. “I guess we could try.” Zayn smiled back, though there was a hint of nervousness in his eyes. “Okay, well… Hi, I’m Zayn. Nice to meet you.” I couldn’t help but laugh. “Hi, I’m Aurora. Nice to meet you too.”

Gabriel swallows, his gaze flickering for a second like he’s trying to process it all at once. “I’m not saying this because things are easy right now,” I continue, quieter now but more certain. “I’m saying it because even when things weren’t… it was still you.” Something in his expression breaks— not painfully this time. Just… openly. I take a small breath before adding, “We don’t have to go back to what we were before,” I say gently, my eyes softening. “We can start over.” That makes him look at me again. Really look.

she’d forget every memory of everything and start making new ones. “Yeah," I whispered to the empty room. "That’s exactly what I’m going to do. It’s time to start over. To hell with Bonners whatever and to hell with whatever this was." I said it with a tone of forced satisfaction and fell back against the pillows. I knew that saying it was the easy part, I’ve done it like a countless times but acting on it was always the real battle. But it’s time I needed to be serious about it, since I know how she feels about me, there’s nothing more to hold into. I’ll erase her from my mind and find someone new, someone special who actually wanted to be found. I took a deep breath, forcing a small, fragi

In a feverish haze, I heard the doorbell ring. The delivery guy called out, "Delivery for Mr. Hendrick." I smiled as I took it from the delivery guy and thanked him. I was going to laugh at James for being childish. After all, before falling asleep, I had only mentioned that I had a fever. Yet he had already ordered medicine for me. However, when I opened the delivery bag and saw what was inside, my expression froze. Condoms and lubricant were right there in plain sight, and even the toy in my hand made my head spin. Just as I took out my phone, ready to demand an explanation from my husband, a text message suddenly popped up. "This is Sangland Resortworld. Dear Mr. Hendrick, we are de

That’s how it feels as I hug Ezra, not ready to let go. Finally, he pulls away and searches my eyes. “Come with me to England.” I stiffen. “W-what?” “Let’s start over somewhere else. Somewhere without the constant look over our shoulders, somewhere new, somewhere different,” he says. “You, me, Hannah and my mom…maybe Beth, AJ and Noah too.” “Ezra…” “Think about it,” he cuts in. “You don’t have to decide anything, yet.” I’m not opposed to starting over. Hell, I’m ready to leave this city, to leave the chaos. This past year has been from one trauma to the next.

"I want to tell you that I'm not very good about making new friendships. I spend a lot of time reading people and trying to understand their workings, which I turn causes me to forget how that makes me come off. I don't dislike you. At all. I think you're a good addition to the band and I would like to write more with you, if that's ok?" "Yea, that would be great, I'd like that." Pearl replied. She was happy he was reaching out to her creatively. It felt good because in her mind, he had been her greatest critic. "So how are you? I mean really? With the divorce and everything you've been through, I mean, John told me about your ex husband. Are you doing ok?" It was the first time since her le

His brown eyes almost seem to sparkle in the golden light of the sun streaming in through the window, and it’s in this moment that I knew I made the right choice. What he says next, though, takes me completely by surprise. “I want to start over with you,” he blurts out. “I… I want to go.” I swallow. “You’re sure?” I whisper. He pauses, thinking for a moment, then nods. “I’m sure,” he says. “I want to start fresh with you, follow my destiny, start a new chapter. It’s like the old lady said; when one door closes, another opens.” “You’re right,” I say, nodding slowly. “She’s right.”

“And although I know I've wronged you, and I've turned your life into something you can't recognize in such a short while, I want to tell you I'm sorry. You have every right to move away from me. But I want you to remember the good times we've spent together and I want us to start afresh. I want us to start anew. I want us to start this new chapter of our lives together and as one, Kayla Smith. Please say yes, Kayla. Please say yes.” The crowd was muttering, and I could hear a few chants of “say yes” amongst them. At that moment, our flight numbers were called, and I realized that I didn't want to leave this lovely man behind. It was going to be challenging, it was going to be difficult, but
