This was part of a collab with Echo Ross! She’s one of the moooost WONDERFUL people I’ve met here on reedsy and she makes awesome stories too (really what more could you want in a person) ;o I’ll have the link to her account in the comments, you can read her perspective here:https://blog.reedsy.com/short-story/geauhb/Enjoy!The fiery sense of longing that sets my being ablaze thrives from the living room, to the kitchen, the hall; up the staircase, the feeling rises in me with a writhing agony.How long has it been?A lifetime of a faraway drea...
Dear Emma Dear Emma, You haven’t been answering my calls or texts, I hope you’re alright. I thought this letter might help. Do you remember the day we met?

The link to her page and Faye's P.O.V. are in the comments :D Cold winds harshly blew against the window crevices, eventually pushing them open after an hour of relentless gusts. Flakes of snow accompanied their icy breaths, they landed on a puddle where flurries that had seeped through the apertures earlier had now melted.The hairs beneath the sleeves of my sweater rose and a chilli...

Strands of hair stuck to her sweating face, she breathed through her mouth heavily, her chest heaving up and down. With the small portion of moonlight that seeped through window curtains, illuminating Sophie’s face, Theo could make out her frantic eyes moving behind closed eyelids.He gently placed his hand over her moistened forehead, recoiling it back almost immediately the moment their skin made contact.“Shit, you’re b...
