We Living Together Novels & Stories

I need her to. “But the point is,” I say, reaching to brush a lock of hair from her face, “— now we’re here. And you’re allowed to live. Not just survive. Not just plan. But live.” She nods slowly, thoughtfully. “So should you.” “Yeah, we should try it. We can live together. Recklessly responsible.” She narrows her eyes. “That’s not a real thing.” “It is now. Trademark pending.” She smirks, but there’s moisture in her eyes. “I guess you’re right …”

"Moving in?" "We are married, Yana." The way he calls my name makes my insides swoop. My name has never sounded so sexy. "Yeah, we are." "So, we have to live together like every married couple." "But I stay just beside you, is it really necessary?" I mean, we are technically still strangers. Living together just sounds somehow. But that's still what I signed up for. It's basically why he got married. "It is. We can't live in separate houses."

” I said and she just laughed. ”Well, it’s just for today, since you cook dinner last week for five straight days, so I’m just trying to repay that.” “Okiedokie~” We were just planning on buying the ingredients for our dinner but we bought everything we wanted to eat and now we’re carrying 4 bags each full of groceries. We’re actually living in a condo near our university. My parents disagreed at first but later agreed after Lili’s parents convinced my parents that we’re gonna live in a two-bedroom condo owned by her family, so that’s how we lived together for three years now.

"Not a big question. Just a practical one, though I've been turning it over for a few days, trying to find the right moment." "Ask," Lena said. "Would you want to actually move in properly?" Rowan said. "Not the way we've been doing it, half your things in your room, half in mine, both of us pretending we haven't already essentially been living together for weeks. I mean actually, deliberately, choosing one space as ours."

Caleb’s face crumpled for half a second before he hid it. Evan didn’t catch it. “So does that mean we’ll all live together? Like a real family? One house, dinner every night, all that stuff?” Caleb and I glanced at each other, panic rising. “We’re taking it slow, buddy,” Caleb said carefully. “We want to get this right. But yeah… we’re together for real now.” Evan’s voice got small and hopeful. “I want us to live together. I want a real family. Not just some weekends and goodbyes.”

Sarah, though, didn’t look satisfied. “Listen, sweetie,” she said to her brother. “That’s all great, OK? Those are things that you and Callie would do if you lived together. Day-to-day routine stuff, which is important… but living with someone else isn’t just about taking the bus and washing the plates. It’s – well. It’s about living together. Making a home with another person, not just inhabiting a house with one.” She paused. “You understand me, Noah?” “Yes. Can I try again to answer the question?”

Lunch was served, White rice and Vegetables. The siblings had just settled down on the dinning, Mareili dished Joachim's meal before serving hers. "This is definitely just not what I was expecting to eat but uhm.... If there's nothing else. Anyway" Joachim muttered to himself but loud enough to be heard by Mareili.

I will wed her, we will live together happily the way we planned, have kids and grow old, only death can do us apart. Is this lie going to do us apart, though?

“Not your family. Not your best friend. No one. This agreement lives and dies between us.” I swallowed hard, my fingers tightening on the paper. Rule Four: Both parties will share living arrangements in the Anderson estate for the duration of the contract. Appearances must be maintained in public. In private, expectations are minimal. Two people forced to live together, nothing more. The words blurred for a moment as my mind tried to process what I was reading. Live with him. Under the same roof. For an entire year. I shut the folder halfway, shaking my head. “This is insane.”

********* TWO MONTHS LATER I moved into my own place with my best friend Claire!! I had thought about it and with Claire also looking for her own space we decided why don't we live together for some time, it was a beautiful house with two bedrooms so why not and it would be the best experience to live with my best friend while we figure our lives together, so we had moved in, it looks so beautiful.
