"I never stood a chance, did I?" My eyes hadn't left her since she arrived. I looked at her differently then I ever had. She wasn't who I thought she was, she wasn't who anyone thought she was. And it was beautiful.
"That's the sad part - you did once. And everyday sine then I've let you stand a little closer. Your chance was still here but," She gripped the edge of the railing. Her hair was fluttering lightly in the night air. "you were gone. You've been gone a long time."
Her hair was fluttering the way she made my heart flutter. It looked insignificant and small but felt as though someone had released a hundred butterflies in my stomach. It was beyond my control and I loved it.

Unconditionally
"What I was suppose to do? You left me, you went to Arizona." I shout at him as he storms away. "Wait for me." He shouts and I go mute. Did he really just say that? Had he really expected me to just sit around? "Oh yeah, just like you did for me." I finally say, finding my voice. "You moved on Elijah and it crushed me," I start as I get emotional and my voice breaks. "You think I don't know? You think that I wasn't hurt? I spent ten months holding onto you and even after that I still won't let you go, I still can't let you go." Elijah flips, shocking me. "You are everything Scarlett...and I am nothing without you." he says, eyes liquid as he stares intently at me. I notice how close we were to each other now. His hand on my waist now and I step in closer to him, heart racing like crazy. "I am nothing without you," he repeats quieter, leaning in towards me.

But all that changes one crazy, complicated, and absolutely confusing summer...Read about Scarlett's tumultuous summer as she discovers things she never knew about life and love and the craziness of it all.Complete
REMINISCENT
I frowned, thrown off "Do i...remember?" "Do you remember..." she starts but her voice falters. She glances down at the sand, biting her lip debating whether to even continue. She then takes a shaky breath and finally looks up. Eyes locking with mine " do you even remember how you got it?" Her question hits me like a slap. I open my mouth, then close it, my brows furrowing as I force my brain to rewind. How did I get it? Nothing. Not a single clear memory. She steps closer, her voice trembling, but the edge of anger sharpening her words. "Or when? Or where? Or for what reason? Or what it even means?!" I flinch at her tone, but I can't answer her. I try. God, I try.. I look down at the sand beneath my feet, forcing myself to dig through every memory, every hazy night out, every stupid decision I might've made-but nothing. Not a single moment of how I got it surfaced. I let out a frustrated breath and rake a hand through my hair, feeling the panic rise like bile in my throat. When I finally lift my head to speak, Ashley's already staring at me, and I can tell-she knows my answer before I say a word. "You don't remember," she says softly, nodding like she expected it all along. __________________________________________ Crazy thing happened...Three years ago, a tragic accident left Ashley scarred and shattered.

Waking To Nothing
Aveline Carter didn't believe in destiny-at least, not the kind that guided you toward something extraordinary. Her life was a series of neatly folded routines, tucked into corners of quiet cafes and the solitude of late-night musings. She thought she had mastered the art of invisibility, fading into the noise of Evanston Heights while carrying the soft ache of Willowridge in her heart-a place she hadn't dared to return to for five years. The decision to finally go back was unplanned, almost impulsive. It wasn't courage that pulled her to pack her bags, nor nostalgia. It was something else entirely, something she couldn't name. As the train rolled toward the town of her childhood, Aveline felt it-a quiet unease that clung to her like the fog outside her window. What awaited her was not just the familiar streets of her past, but a twist in the threads of her reality. A fleeting moment, a twist of fate-or perhaps a dream? She didn't know it yet, but she was about to step into a story that would blur the lines between what was real and what was imagined, forcing her to confront a truth she wasn't prepared to face. And so, with a heart heavy with questions, Aveline began a journey that would take her beyond the edges of the world she thought she knew, into a place where time unraveled, love bloomed in whispers, and reality was but a shadow of the dream.
Unintentional Passion
Geovanni Have you ever gotten that feeling that somebody was watching you? And that person who was watching you wasn't normal. I have felt that way all of my life; but then again I felt as if I went missing nobody would even notice or care I was gone. I am 23 and just graduated from college. I was there an extra year because I had to take care of my family. I had to transfer back into the city and pick up the extra work because my mom died, and my dad became addicted to anything that would numb his pain. My little sister and brother would be lost without me here. But now I could care less. A cold breeze blew through my window waking me up from my thoughts. I looked over in the corner and saw that nothing was there. It was odd because I felt like someone well more like something was there. It had to be my imagination getting the best of me. I laid back in my bed and closed my eyes. Then all of a sudden I got the feeling I wasn't alone. But the really strange thing is that even if there was someone in here with me I felt safe. Jordan. I watched her as she slept. In fact I have been watching her since she was born. I have waited half a century to find that one person. I think I have finally settled on her. She was my choice. I know. After being in as many relationships as I have you know things. I felt my fangs tingle. Her blood smelled so sweet. Her heartbeat was steady and strong. I took my tongue and ran it across my fang. The temptation to indulge in her red liquid was far too strong. I let out a low growl and jumped out her window. I was ready for a hunt. "Did you see her Jordan?" "Yes, and tomorrow night you will turn her," "Why do I have to turn her?" "Ezra, you know once you turn them, they hate you," "I didn't hate pops," "You wanted to join though," "True, but first see if she wants to be turn before you jump to conclusions," I nodded my head, before me and Ezra took off to find some fresh blood for the night.

Memories: Recollection
A short recollection of memories; no matter how staring or random they seem, memories will always have a place in our heart. Basically a short collection of short stories from contest entries and some other thoughts and inspirations. *** Featured story of the day: Remember Cassa, Remember "You're...well you're popular and there are girls in the school that'll gladly throw themselves onto your feet. I'm...I'm nothing compared to them." Caesare sighed. He paused for a long moment. So long I almost thought...thought that he was going to admit his lies, confess that it was all a sick prank. "Cassa." I looked up. "You mean more to me than any other person. You're...you're like the moon, not blazing or fiery like the sun, but gentle and warm. You think you are forgettable, but you aren't. You're...you're perfect." I smiled at him. His words are through the barriers I put around my heart, breaking down walls like acid and enveloping my heart in a cosy hug. "Caesare...I..." He leaned over and kissed me.Complete
