- - - - I'm here. On the bridge. That is it. I have to do it. I have to jump. No one cares. I have no one. I'm a waste of space. I'm useless. Just another burden. Come on Selena, do it. I knew my life was going to end any minute now. I started to cry. One...Two...Th- I felt somone grip my hand and pull me back. It was some guy. He grabbed me and held me tight and it's like he knew me. I cried and sobbed in his arms. A total stranger. But he saved me.

When our eyes met
"As I looked up, my eyes met someone else's. He had curly copper brown hair that fell on his forehead and a chiseled jaw but I wasn't too concerned about his physical attributes. What really stuck out to me was his hazel eyes. I felt my pupils dilate as I slowly melted in his eyes. I felt safe in the comfort of his gaze. Why do I feel safe? The room faded away. It was just the two of us. Why does he have this effect on me? His eyes looked sympathetic. Why is he sympathetic? What are my eyes telling him? I felt a warm sensation flow through my body as my breaths became deeper. I didn't care about any of what happened before and I didn't care about anyone else. I just wanted to stay in this moment, with him, forever."Complete

~Completed~ 'I'm bold.' 'I'm ever confident.' 'I don't give a fuck about what anyone thinks and have to say about me.' 'I'm who I am.' 'I'm Stella Downer.' That's how it has always been, but what happens when things don't go exactly the way she planned... ~~~ He said nothing more, he had a sly smile on his face as he ran his hands through his hair. No doubt he was gorgeous. No doubt he's got good lips. No doubt he got any girl he wanted. No doubt I'm having crazy thoughts right now. "You're my boyfriend's bestfriend" I blurted. "It doesn't matter, I respect that but he's the only thing standing between 'us'" he replied, his voice still as calm as ever like nothing was weird... Like 'THIS' was normal. "'We' are not possible" I said mustering all the courage I could, trying not to melt under his gaze. "Does it mean you're considering it?" He asked. I wanted to reply but I couldn't, I couldn't just make out words right now. Was I perhaps considering it? What is wrong with me?! I just stood there, staring at him, his eyes piercing into mine like he was trying to read me. There was something about those dark eyes I couldn't quite comprehend. His presence was doing something to me! Everywhere was suddenly so quiet. Where is everyone?! Few seconds later, his face was inches away from mine, I just hope it wasn't what I was thinking. Every foward motion he took, I equally took a step backwards till I felt my back hit against one of the lockers. I could have pulled out. I could have pushed him away. I could have walked away. I could have hit him or slapped him away from me. But I did nothing... My body felt numb. The only thing I could feel were the weird sensation inside me. We were a breathe apart. I could already feel his body heat... •••••• Book #1 of the Downer Sisters Series. CAN BE READ AS A STAND ALONE BOOK!Complete

"Felix, she's just going to turn you dark. Please, let me help." I said and his eyes looked upset for a second before they just turned blank again. "I don't need your help. I don't need you, I'm happy with Crimson, you were the one who didn't complete your job." He said and I was taken aback. It sounded so real, like Felix was actually saying it, it seemed as though talking to a Felix that wasn't Felix was harder than I could've ever imagined. "No you're not. She's forcing you to do this. Felix look at me, this isn't you. Please, don't let her control you." I said, my voice was now pleading and Felix's eyes seemed to grow tired, he looked at me with such sadness and tiredness that it broke me. I felt tears falling down my face. He raised his hand and wiped away one of my tears. "She's not. I choose her. I don't love you." He said and I took a step back, the tears falling out of my eyes seemed to betray me. "This isn't you. I know you Felix." I said and his eyes turned dark and my heart seemed to fall apart. I couldn't do this. "You don't know me Scarlett, you never did. You were so concerned about all your problems, you couldn't help me if you even tried." He said and I felt as though the wind had been knocked out of me as I hit the wall and slowly sunk down. "Felix, please remember me. Remember us. We can do this, remember our promise? We wouldn't let anything separate us?" I said, my breath seemed to be knocked out of my lungs as I looked at his blank expression. I was out of energy, I was trying so hard to save a boy that couldn't be saved, I felt as though I had failed him. "Scarlett. Stop trying to save someone who doesn't need saving." He said and with the last bit of fight in me I jumped up on my toes and kissed him.Complete
Gravity
"In my 19 years of life I never really experienced anything worth telling a story about. Usually when something exciting happened to me, which was rare, I'd sum up the key parts and move on. But then I died, and I finally had a story worth talking about. Anyway, how I died isn't too exciting. Just a basic car accident. You know, icy roads, snow coming down hard, a car slides into your lane and then boom. You're standing in the street watching some guy trying to shake you alive and all you can think is, "Damn, I'm dead." Although, I'm sure you've never experienced that, or else I'd be telling you this story face to face. Anyway, that guy begging me to wake up, he's pretty important, remember him. Now, let's get to the good stuff shall we? Because in all honesty, this story isn't about me, or my death, it's about Abigail and Zac. "Complete
Lose My Mind (Nathan Sykes Fan Fic)
"Just leave me alone!" I try and storm away but a gentle, yet firm hand grabs my wrist forcing me to turn around. "Why are you even doing this? I thought you couldn't stand me?" I ask looking anywhere but his eyes. "Well at first I couldn't" I try and storm away again but this time he grabs me by my hips and pulls me towards him. "Now I can't stand the thought, of being without you." He grabs my face with his large smooth hands and gently but firmly places his lips on mine.Complete
In Shadows of Night
I woke to a sudden breeze invading the warmth from the heavy blanket that caressed my skin. Here, alone with my thoughts, the still, calm quiet in the atmosphere is almost painful. I feel suffocated in the clingy, static air. In quiet, still moments like these, I can almost feel Him. I don't know who "Him" is, but I can feel his presence. It's almost calming, especially on fearful, anxiety fueled nights. Usually, he was the strongest when I had a nightmare. The nightmares weren't as common now, but, right after everything happened, I was having them every night. I'd wake up and swear I was drenched in blood, my eyes and lips sticky, my nose filled with the smell of iron and fuel. After everything, that's when Him first came. From there, he just never left. I can usually sense when Him is near. Today, though, his presence is stronger. I can almost feel Him next to me, weighing down the mattress. Some nights, I roll over and imagine how he looks, envision his smile or the sparkle in his eyes. He's never there and I'm left clutching to the thought that he exists, staring into empty air. Tonight, though, I swear I can reach out and touch him. Extending my hand gently, I sweep my hand out into the darkness and meet an inexplicable warmth. A scream rips from my lungs as hands cover my face and two icy blue eyes stare back at me, daring me to speak again. A soft cloth caressed my nose and mouth before I felt myself fade into bed.

Freedom (Sequel)
I held my hand above my eyes, trying to survey in the back of the wild audience. Everyone was watching me. Everyone. Thousands of eyes laid on me with their mouths opening and screaming at me. "Eric! Hey Eric over here!" I tuned them out as I tried harder to look for him. I wanted to see it. I wanted to see his eyes filled with hatred. But I look back to see him with his arms crossed. The "new " Warden is what they call him. I can't believe that hell- hole of a town still exists. I look at him with disgust only to find him pull a smirk on the side of his face. I laid my hand down and look at the hundreds of people waving their hands to get my attention. "Eric! Sir please one question!" A lady screamed above everyone else in front of me. I look down to see the woman waving her arm wildly. "Sir what really happened to her? Was she left there? Why did you let this happen?" I raise my hand to her, telling her to stop. She looked at me with wide pleading eyes. I could feel a chill crawl up my with the sudden impact of nightmares. Julie. I took a deep breath, fighting the tears. "She wanted it to happen." A sequel to Let Me In.Complete

I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head.

Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Complete
