Nanowrimo2013 Histoires

This is a story about a truck-hating girl who stalls in the middle of an intersection, and the soccer playing boy who tries to save her. "He started the car again, and got it to unstall. “So where are we headed Ms. Harmon, I’m at your command.” I looked out the window, and saw the headlights of a car heading our way. We were in the middle of a four way stop, so I looked at Sebastian to tell him we needed to head out. I was about to tell him the directions to Lana’s house, when the giant ass truck that was approaching the stop sign didn't stop. I could only see a glimpse of a face: purposeful eyes, a determined set in the shoulders, a plain white man’s face in a blue baseball cap, and a angry red scar traversing the length of his cheek. The glimpse was enough to know that what was about to happen wouldn’t be avoided. “Sebastian!” I scream. He whips his head to the window, and steps on the gas, but not soon enough. Sebastian seems to know that the car is going to hit us, and he throws his arm out in front of me, trying to shield me as best he can, and then the truck hits…. I seriously have a problem with truck drivers."

"Memories warm you up from the inside... but they also tear you apart." Losing your memory isn't easy by any means. Add to that a boyfriend you don't remember, a mysterious guy you can't get out of your head, and secrets and lies that just keep piling up. This is Aaron's story, as she figures out exactly what happened to her, and finds herself in the process.

Broken bones, panic attacks, and bruises all over her body are what Mia wakes up to in the hospital. She can't remember how she got hurt, or when it happened, or where she is now. She can't even remember her own name. When her husband shows up with journals and photo albums and music, determined to help her remember who she is, the memories slowly start to come back. The panic and fear she feels in her husband's presence are slowly replaced with trust, and the possibility of a future together starts to seem possible. But not all memories are good, and some things are better left unknown...

A paranormal reworking of a classic tale from the Brothers Grimm.

Everyone judges people by their first glance and don't even try to say you don't. We put people into categories or stereotypes from what we see but sometimes that's not really how it is. Bad Boy: A boy who is misunderstood and often rides a motorbike, gets into fights, does drugs, breaks the hearts of innocent girl. This is Trey Denver. Maybe there's more than meets the eye. Nerd: A person often described with lots of pimples and big glasses and wearing clothes for comfort. Not only that but is really smart and doesn't have much of a social life. This is Ellie Roger. People aren't always the image they are seen as. Popular people: People who are outgoing and nice. Sometimes up themselves and can be mean too. Something everyone seems to want to be. This is Max and Maxine Hendersen. Maybe they want to be something more than just the popular. S**ts: Girls who pile makeup on themselves to make them look like Barbie dolls and often act rude and talk about people behind one another. Show a lot of skin and go from guy to guy. This is Sawyer Sadie. Maybe underneath she's just a Brokenhearted girl. Player: nearly the same thing as a s**t and are usually attractive males that seduce the ladies and then throw them away like trash. This is Lincoln Xavier. Maybe he's just scared of falling. Oh how wrong you get these people's images. There's always something beneath the person they betray themselves as. {EDITING} Cover by @Labrynthine_
