What happens when an old legend becomes a devastating reality? For these six teens, it becomes their worst nightmare. Who will make it out of this nightmare alive?

A simple short story about a man proposing to a woman after being together for eight years. It's not long, but its sweet. Originally written for a cheesy love story contest on Booksie.com.

Arianna is a perfectly normal girl who leads a perfectly normal life. She has friends, school, a disfunctioning family, and basically everything else that makes her a teenager. For a mermaid. She's a Warrior by birth, but a Princess by blood, and she'll have to choose which one to be before the time comes for her to take the throne. And as if that wasn't enough hardship to face, she finds out she's going on her trial early for a mermaid her age. A trial is when a young mermaid is sent up to the Human World to discover what it's like up there and decide where they want to live- on Earth or under it in the water. Arianna is sure that she will choose the water, but as she slowly falls in love with the one she's meant to be with over the four months she's allowed up in the Human World, she becomes less and less sure. When the time comes, will she choose her Warrior-Princess life, or the life her Love can offer her?

Callie never had a easy life, but she always made the best of what she had. Just a few words ruined her life, and who would have known it would be cut short.

For years, Devin Calloway has walked the halls of his small town high school, being ignored by almost everyone who sees him. They may not notice him, but he notices them. And he's noticed one person in particular, though. Bethany Neumann: Blonde-haired, green-eyed school sweetheart. And soon it is clear that she just might have noticed him too. But unfortunately for Devin, Bethany's boyfriend is out to get him, and things are getting rough. Can their true love get them through this hardship? Can they pull through and have the so longed for happy ending of fairy tales? Or are they destined to end up like Romeo and Juliet?

"He took me to a place that reeked of old age and secrets."
