Foreword

Once upon a time, there were five rebellious bobby pins. Despite the explicit instructions they were given, they did not find themselves safely back inside of my makeup case like they were supposed to. 

Rather, they decided to hang out together on my dresser, having a party or something. Probably ganging up on me, discussing ideas of ruining my life somehow, maybe on how they were all going to not stay in my hair and just fall out in the middle of nowhere.

Okay, I know I'm being a bit ridiculous, but, seriously, these bobby pins are vital to this story.

In the end, they won, and their plan worked out perfectly; ruining my life.

Because without those five bobby pins, this story would not exist.

And possibly my stubbornness.


Description

  "Would you have really pulled that trigger, Dee?" His voice taunted me. 

 "No," I grunt out after letting my guard down. 

"And why not?" I hated when he was mocking and teasing me. 

"Because I've never done it before and I'm too innocent," I look down at the ground while stating the facts. 

"What are you doing, Delilah Jade Frisco?" asks Tyler a small smile playing on his lips. He's playing this off as if he knew this was going to happen all along or the fact that I wouldn't actually shoot the person who took care of me for 3 years

 - 

That was the last straw. I throw all my thoughts of how I've never actually shot a human being, especially anything filled with blood and how "innocent" I was down the drain. 

-

 I raise my other gun and shoot. 

-

 "Consider this a game of capture the mobile flag - naturally, I'm the flag. First, one to find me wins." 

I give out a sinister chuckle as I hear them banging on the door and yelling at each other.

  Trust only your instincts. After all, if you expect something, your body will fool you into believing it exists. Your eyes will show you what you want to see. Your ears will hear what you want them to. The people you trust will lie. But, your instincts, they alone are brutally & mercilessly honest - JEI 

 Starring, Delilah Jade Frisco. 

 Her bobby pins, which are vital to this story. 

 And of course, her stubborn self.  

Quotes

Chapter 2If you find yourself constantly losing, maybe it's time to redefine the word "win" - JEI

Chapter 3 Other people will try to put you in a box because that makes you easier for them to understand. But why would you accept their artificial constraints? - JEI

Chapter 4 - Trust only your instincts. After all, if you expect something, your body will fool you into believing it exists. Your eyes will show you what you want to see. Your ears will hear what you want them to. The people you trust will lie. But, your instincts, they alone are brutally & mercilessly honest... - JEI

Chapter 5 - Other people tell you that they love you and you believe them. But I move heaven and earth to show you my feelings and you still question my loyalty. When will you realize that words are cheap but works are priceless? - JEI

Chapter 6Why does everyone complain about life giving them lemons? Would they rather life throw them bones? - JEI

Chapter 7 The worst part of a prison isn't the smell or the conditions. It's the fact that you can't leave - except in your mind. Stay long enough and your mind becomes the worst prison of all... -JEI

Chapter 8Never think you know exactly what's going on, just like you would never think you knew where all the weapons were in the room. Because the second you think you know everything that's happening is the exact moment you realize you miscounted, as you find the muzzle of a gun pressed to your head. -JEI

Chapter 9 - Be wary of making peace with your enemy, or else you might find it hard to hold onto your old grudges. -JEI
