"Please . . . don't cry. You had to have known I'd do this at some point." *** Parker Sims is the class clown but that doesn't mean he's easy to fool. And that's just what Nola B. is good at - fooling people. She's got the whole school believing that her scars, bruises, and broken bones are from being clumsy. However, Parker sees through the lies. He knows there's another reason why she flinches at the touch of other people, the way she's alert and watchful, how she wears long sleeves (even in the middle of the summer), or even the way she keeps losing weight, staggering to an unhealthy size. Parker saw all the signs; it killed him from the inside out to know what she was going through. So, he called the cops and reported his suspension that Nola was being abused. That was a total joke, he found out... Parker thought of everything in the book but each attempt, to get someone to notice she was being abused, failed - epically. He'd no other options . . . except for one thing. . . Kidnap her - take her away from whoever was abusing her; give her the life she deserves. It was a crazy idea, and he knew it - that's exactly why he shook the idea out of his head. . . That was until he saw her come to school with a black eye and limping while holding her sides. Parker snapped and did the one thing he swore he'd never do- Kidnap Nola B., for her own protection. *** Warning: Contains abuse and harsh language.

[coming this summer] Preston Declan, when solidly on ground, is witty and undeniably charming. But the moment he boards any airplane, his bone-threading phobia of flying seeps in, forcing him to succumb to his inner fears. Jupiter Hale is neutral about planes - doesn't love them nor dislikes them. She's been on one enough times to call the airline her second home considering that she's tossed between her parents every other month. Besides being placed as plane partners, Preston can't deny Jupiter the fact that she calms his plane anxiety. Just her touch makes him feel fuzzy, and frankly, he unearths emotions alien to Jupiter. Turns out Preston is going to need all the tranquility he can muster the moment their airplane is caught in severe storm, resulting in much delay. Romance doesn't come without a bit of Turbulence. - Short Story #17 // Humor #103 - Cover credits to @mags_73
