So everyone fled after that ;) so now the current date in this will take part in early 2013. Enjoy!☆

*like if You've Got Mail was emo, gay, and a little bit messed up It followed Frank in the night like a screaming ghost -that distant, dreadful thing - but he can't quite remember what it was, only that it happened sometime last year, during the fall of '03. However, when Frank arrives for his freshman year at St. John's College in Maryland, he can no longer ignore it. Whatever he forgot is still with him, pestering, eating away at his conscience. In the sleepless hours between classes, Frank confides in an anonymous keypal known only as d3adsy, whose messages feel uncannily attuned to his fears. What Frank doesn't know is that d3adsy is Gerard: his preppy, uptight, transcendentalist-obsessed dormmate.

Some love stories begin quietly between shared laughter, stolen glances, and people who never meant to fall this hard. This story unfolds in two parts. The first follows those who loved first their choices, their silences, and the weight they carried without knowing the cost. The second belongs to the next generation, born into echoes of love, loss, and legacies they never asked to inherit. What starts as a gentle, almost light-hearted romance slowly deepens into something heavier-where affection collides with responsibility, and personal dreams are entangled in an unwanted struggle for power within an empire built long before them. This is a story of love that evolves, of warmth that meets consequence, and of lives pulled into battles they never chose only endured. *********************************************************************************************** SHRIDHANI X NEEL She called him annoying.

In the high stakes, fast world of early 2000s Hollywood, no one connects Maggie "behind the scenes" makeup artist with "The Kid Mentalist," former lead of a viral teen magician group, Her Rebel Magicians.

But when Julian falls into an intoxicating two-year fling with Lincoln, a charismatic wolf shifter and reckless rockstar, his carefully constructed life begins to unravel.

As the narrator, I will take you through this story, but that is the extent of my involvement. This is not my story. This story is about Andrew Richman, he deserves to have the spotlight. Andrew Richman was the most popular guy of Maryville High School's Class of 2007. Key word: was. Andrew Richman is dead, murdered. Leader of the elite popular group "the Mirrors", everyone loved him, envied him, despised him. But who actually committed the act? Was it the girlfriend, Tina Tiwari, perfect on the outside but guardian of secrets? The Needies, Maryville High's very own group of wannabes? Or maybe it was the best friend, Drew Pyer, who was a Mirror himself. I'm merely a loner, an introvert with dark tendencies and a heightened sense of morality, but I am a great observer. And as an observer, I owe it to you to tell you what I see. And what I have seen.

Penny Springfield lives inside her mind. She's shy, and other students bully her at school. Even her best friend doesn't do much to help; she's seeing Penny's secret crush. But things are about to change in a big way, and it starts with an audition for the choir solo. (I've worked on this for a long time, off and on, and originally started writing it before 2010, so it roughly takes place around 2003/4. A lot of this is inspired by my high school experience and my issues of being bullied and having friends who were not bullied, but didn't exactly do much to help.)
