You and I


Ian and Amy

41. Inevitable

It was the only way to describe their romance.

42. Imminent

It was the only way to describe their separation.

43. White

He had always thought that it was such an impractical colour: so easy to stain, pale, and with no life of its own.

But did she ever prove him wrong on their wedding day.

44. Juxtaposition

They both swayed to the beat of the soothing music, with his hands on her waist and hers on his shoulders, trying not to step on each other's toes—or she was, anyway.

Neither of them had ever relished close contact—he had never liked it when others infringed on his personal space, and she always ended up blushing madly— but as their eyes met, for reasons unbeknownst to either of them, their juxtaposition didn't seem so bad.


Hamilton and Sinead

45. Invincible

And he only ever feels that way around her.


Dan and Natalie

46. Résumé

Needless to say, he had spent more than one week sleeping by his lonesome on the couch when he had listed being married to her as his best achievement.

47. Wind

Like the wind, you calmed me down.

Like the wind, you brought back so many fond memories.

Like the wind, you played with me, stringing me along for what seems like eternity.

Like the wind, you were gone as suddenly as you came.

48. Carvings

She held the opinion that the best carvings were only ever done by the best Italian craftsmen.

But she soon amended that thought after seeing their initials carved into the bark of an oak tree.


Jonah and Natalie

49. Curtains

You said that it was over for us.

I paid no heed, because it certainly wasn't the first time. In fact, I've lost track of how often our romance has been played and staged.

But this time was different.

This time, there was no encore.

And now I'm standing alone as the audience bores a hole through me with their cruel gaze, taunting and jeering me as the lights dim and the music fades.

They're screaming at me, telling me, "I told you so."

Fool.

Our story ends on a bitter note.

It's curtains for us.


Arthur and Hope

50. Chocolate

You once told me that life was like chocolate.

But who knew how bittersweet this would taste?


A/N: Feel free to leave prompts. I'll try to fit in as many of it as possible, since there are only five more chapters to this. And do tell if you have a favourite (or the converse). Thanks to everyone who has reviewed. :)
