My aunt asked me to make a story for her about a slice of bread and this is it. I'm a new writer and this is my first story.
Setting: Springtime, about May; in a northern area, in the country. Alternate universe with no internet, telephones, computers, etc. but with cars and plumbing and electricity.
Janie has worked for Clarissa, a snooty rich woman, for seven years. She doesn't know her parents. She is worried she will be working for Clarissa until she drops, until one day she meets Joshua Shell. He is a multi-millionaire with a kind heart and his best friend is his horse. He was invited to stay at Clarissa's house for a few weeks. He is a bachelor, but usually hangs around other snooty people. Janie is the first person who hasn't been interested in his money. What will happen?

Love is an odd drug. (Realistic fiction)
A story of a 17-year-old boy named Pure. He is a lonely guy that hasn't felt the real touch of love. He has had girlfriends but the feeling of happiness never reached his eyes anymore. But one day, He met a tall, blonde haired, nerdy girl named Charity. Will, he confessed his feelings for her? Does he know she may feel the same way? I guess you'll have to stay tuned and find out. PS: Okay there is a bigger plot than just the confession. I'm sorry I just love writing into this story and I got bigger better plans for it. High school love and drama is always fun to write about. Also all names used in my stories are from a Random Name Generator. They aren't real names of the people these are based on. (Note: I'm not using my real name just yet. ;) Eventually you guys will find out my name but you'll just have to wait in the story. Pure Placebo Out!)Complete
The Rose Necklace
A "Beauty and the Beast" retelling. Once upon a time, there was a boy in love with a Lilly. Not a flower, but a girl. It all started one beautiful autumn day. One autumn day that would change the boy's life forever. For on this day, he met Lilly, a beautiful girl with an ugly secret. A secret that threatens to destroy her if she cannot find a way to break the curse forced upon her. Filled with secrets, lies, and love, this short story captures the essence of the original fairy tale with an entirely new twist. ~~~ "Hello, my name is Lilly. What's yours? Is that your mother? I only just came to live here with Ivy, and I don't know many people that come to visit her yet. Do you come often? If you do, we could be friends! Would you like that? To be friends? Why, don't you speak at all? And you should really close your mouth; it is impolite to stare like that." Ivy called out to her from the doorway of the cottage. "Lilly, if you want him to speak, you must first cease speaking." Both of the women were laughing at the children, and Lilly blushed at the comment. "Sorry! I just haven't seen anyone my age yet, and I got excited, which happens rather easily. It reminds me a bit of puppies I've read about that just get so excited that they- oops. I'm doing it again. Sorry," she said with a shy smile. Adam, who had been standing there staring, just as she had pointed out, finally found his voice long enough to tell her his name. She beamed at him, saying that they would be great friends. She seized his hand and began tugging him toward the woods behind the cottage, shouting to Ivy and his mother, "We won't go far! Be back soon!" ~~~Complete

She's 21 and getting a place away from her parents. She never thought it was going to be this hard but when you end up with a sex-crazed roommate that doesn't know the meaning of quiet or privacy... things can get a little complicated. Especially when you run into half naked guys in your house always trying to hit on you.Things spin a little out of control when she finds out her boss is in love with her and she's afraid she might lose her job, her boyfriend starts blowing her off and she thinks she's starting to fall for one of these no good players.Complete
