Took My Breath Away Novels & Stories

For one suspended, breathless second, the world stopped. Naya stood there. And the sight of her knocked the air straight out of my lungs. My jaw dropped..

one said. They walked away. I stayed frozen for a few seconds more. Then I slowly sank back down and let out the breath I had been holding. “That was close..”

I never knew how nice this feeling was to be wanted. Like a stone hit my chest, I gasped for air without getting any; my eyes widened as I felt it. My heart stopped, and everything around me blew away in one harsh swipe of the wind. The scenery of a dream swiped past, faded colors mixed, and bright light chased away the darkness, and I wanted to cry the moment my lunges finally filled with oxygen. Coughing and swallowing air as if my life depended on it, it took me a while to notice the changes.

I have been hearing people saying *he took my breath away*, and I haven't really read any meaning to it, but right now I have the perfect explanation of *he took my breath away*. My eyes trailed along his facial features, his thick and perfectly arched eyebrows which were knitted together in a frown, his long eyelashes are illuminated by his sparkling blue eyes. His lips looked a little bit pale, but still so beautiful and tempting as I stared at them longingly. I folded my lower lip in my mouth and bite it hard, until I tasted a metallic liquid -that's when I realized I've injured my lip. He looked so flawless and sinfully hand

He needed to confirm it first before he decided to let his guard down. "What's wrong with you?" "My head hurts." Krystal stammered. Lorenzo rubbed his face angrily, then he decided to carry Krystal out of the car. Krystal who was a little surprised at first and wanted to push Lorenzo's body away from her decided to cancel it because right now she really needed him to take her out of the cramped car so that she could breathe fresh air outside. But Lorenzo's strong scent only made the dizziness worse until she felt nauseous.

My breath hitched and I couldn’t deny how magnificent he was. He chuckled, "Like what you see?" "More than I should," I admitted, my voice barely a whisper. My hands went to the waist slowly circling my fingers around his waist, feeling his soft skin in my palms. My gaze traveled down, taking him in. My cheeks burned, but I couldn't look away. He was even bigger than I remembered, well we were drunk and I couldn’t remember much. "Wow," I managed, the single word escaping my lips, laced with genuine awe.

My breath stilled. My chest tightened as I stared, wide-eyed, at the horizon. God, how is this real? Sunlight melted into the waves, painting the sea in strokes of gold and rose. The sound, that slow hush of waves kissing the shore, wrapped around me. The scent of salt and warm breeze filled my lungs. Nothing had ever looked this big. This open. This free. I stood there for a long moment, silent, unable to move. My hand pressed lightly to my chest as if trying to hold in the rush of emotion swelling inside.

"…breаthtаking." I cаn't hеlр but fееl thе smаll smilе thаt tugs аt my liрs, though I fееl my chеeks flush. "Thаnks," I sаy sоftly but cleаrly. "Yоu don't look sо bаd yоurselves."

Once again, he was my saviour. I let out a sigh as I stare at the sky. Who would’ve thought I would miss perceiving the air of this city? Who would’ve thought I’d miss staring at the sky? I take a deep breath, filling my lungs with air on purpose before letting it out through my mouth.

I adjusted my chair and sat up straight, attempting to compose myself. As I stared at Leonard, my imagination took over for a moment. He looked like he had just stepped out of an oven—hot and fresh. I could almost pounce on him. A smile crept onto his face as his eyes stayed locked on mine, and I felt my heart flutter. We hadn’t spoken a word since he entered, but the tension between us was undeniable. I found my breaths shallow and labored—it was like I couldn’t breathe. That was when I finally understood the concept of, “you take my breath away.”
