Love, drama, relationships... Mostly fluff. Short romances that I've concocted in this strange, wonderful place called my brain. (I'm attempting to have a story every Friday) Some might be based on YouTubers or other things I love. It really depends on my mood. Suggestions welcome! I run out of idea pretty fast. PLEASE, correct my grammar! This is to improve my writing and corrections are appreciated. Just, please don't be rude about it? #87 in heartwarming. Is that impressive?
