It's funny how when you say"how can anything possibly go wrong?" WHEN EVERY FUCKING THING YOU IMAGINE AND YOUR GOD DAMN MIND COMES TRUE. DONT FUCKING SAY THAT IF YOU ARE POSITIVE NOTHING WILL HAPPEN

Alive
The future is far beyond us. It does not exist. When an oblivious idiot takes credit for the invention of the third (and best functioning) model of the RCA, no one even so much as bats an eye, distraction. These models are the best of the best, at everything. Their muscle flexibility is 93% of ours, effectively eliminating non-realistic movement. They have software controlling their vocal output so that what they say always makes perfect sense, even in pronunciation. Everyone agrees on one thing: If they had a heart, they'd be just about human. And that's just it. Somewhere out there, the original prototype is running about, disguising himself as a normal gen3 RCA, when in reality, he's the only non-organic thing on earth to have emotion, and thought. The other RCAS are programmed to identify him as an immediate danger to the public. So he's always moving around. Looking for the finish to his one computer-made script, aptly called 'fate'. He will find it, and it must be complete.Complete
Out of Time || j.m.
"I'm sorry, James. The tests were positive. You have cancer," the doctor said. In that moment, I felt my entire world crumble. Everything I knew, everything I loved, I would have to say goodbye to. How was this even fair? I'm 23 years old, I haven't lived yet, haven't experienced much, and yet I was going to die. I might have just given up completely if it wasn't for her. She is the only reason I am still alive, yet she can't know of my disease. She can't know anything. I just have to pretend that everything is going to be okay before I have to say goodbye, before I run out of time.Complete
.•IT CAN'T BE REAL•.
When you are told something, you are given a choice; to believe somebody or not. Let me give you a situation, okay? So, you and your 9 year old brother are walking along the train tracks by your house. He sees something, like a monster. Okay, okay, I hear you already going "What the heck?" Just trust me, okay? He's scared out of his LIFE. "It's fine, bro," you'd say. Then he runs off. Grabbed his bag and left. "It can't be real..." you now say to yourself, "It can't be real..."Complete
Turning Table
It's funny because when you're a little kid, you are under the impression that you can just grow up and go about your life in the same way you always have. When you're a kid, you have this whole perception of who you are going to be. You are too young, too full of innocence intertwined with naïveté to truly recognize how complicated the world is going to become. You never would have guessed that the idealized version of yourself that you have had in mind will do everything in its power to slowly slip away from you. Good girl's gone bad, the ripples of a TUNING TABLEComplete
Only You (Book 2 The One series)
Remember when I said that a kiss or an award had a time limit on it? Well, if you find the right person to say "I love you" to, that doesn't go away. That doesn't vanish. That lingers on forever if you're especially lucky. Feeding it with more is always helpful, of course, but if you've found the person whose "I love you" never goes away, then you're probably doing your damndest to keep them in your life. So it never really leaves you. What it does do is color every bit of your life with a magical sheen of joy where even bad luck appears to turn around and become good once more. Broke your shoelace? Well, maybe you walked by a lottery machine on the way to buy more and won a thousand bucks. Who knows? Glass is half full and all of that. I didn't have such interesting luck, but I did find a new level of contentment with my life.
