I'm a writer-teacher. I write because I enjoy it and it brings me satisfaction. I teach writing for the same reasons.
This was a bitter sweet moment this year. I've always felt it means a lot if a child takes the time to create anything for you in the time that is their own. I guess the wilting of the flowers was a reminder that everything is subject to change and that soon my time with this class will soon be over. Seeing your class depart is always a difficult time. The daisy chain represented this feeling perfectly for me that morning.

The Way You Make Me Feel [ J.J ]
There was no way this was happening. This couldn't be happening. I was just having a bad dream, right? I was going to wake up in my bed with my alarm going off, and this would all just be the first day of the semester jitters. That had to be what was happening. I pinched myself, making sure that I was dreaming. I wasn't dreaming. I DO NOT OWN THE CHARACTERS OF CRIMINAL MINDS. ALL RIGHTS GO TO THE RESPECTIVE WRITERS.

Void『Final Liberty』
"When I fulfilled my goal, everything seemed very colorful like a rainbow... It really is my happiest. But then again what's next?" Penelope Froster, a high school teacher asked in her mind. She is a dignified and respectable woman who is centered between her duties and follows everything accordingly. Her life was comparable to a bonfire, it's really beautiful and warm soothing every soul around her. Not later on, she reached the point where the fire is out and what remains is only a pile of ashes. She didn't have any idea what comes next. One day, someone came back in that place, bringing some dry woods and started to lit that fire again. Having that someone by her side, she started to see the light and feel the warm of being alive again. Filling or draining what's left in her, that someone will keep raising the fire until the both of them become one, she will live the life of absurdity expecting the unexpected turn of events in a very, very unexpected way~Complete
The Hottie Next Door
[COMPLETED] Dancing around in my underwear to Taylor Swift seemed like the perfect way to unwind-until I spotted my new neighbor staring from across the street. Did I mention he's ridiculously hot? Or that he saw everything? It couldn't get more awkward... until I walked into school the next day and found out he's not just my neighbor-he's my teacher. A hot teacher who knows exactly what my favorite bra looks like. As if that's not bad enough, fate just had to throw in surprise sleepovers, his annoyingly protective streak, and an undeniable spark between us that I'm trying very hard to ignore.

HER (GirlxGirl) [Completed]
I thought she was the human form of fire; bright, and will burn you if you get too close. I didn't think she would do me any harm. How could something so mesmerizing cause so much destruction?Complete
The Good Bad Girl- the Outsiders Dally Winston x Reader
***Completed: I had written out a wedding scene but didn't feel like finishing it*** You stood with your back against the lamp post, trying not to break down in the middle of the street. Based on how dark it was out, it was probably around three in the morning- nobody would be able to see if you started crying. But it didn't matter to you. Because Greasers don't cry. They're not supposed to- it doesn't meet their personality, their stereotype. "You okay, kid?" You could recognize the voice who asked those three simple, infuriating words. You kept your head down and balled your fists, wishing that he would get the hint that you didn't want to talk. "Go away, Winston." "Come on, kid, I just want to make sure that you're okay." You could feel him place a hand on your shoulder- a gentle touch that gave a sense of genuine care. "Like hell you do," you reply, shrugging your shoulder so that his hand fell away. "None of you dumbass Greasers care about nothing but girls and cars and smoking pot behind the cops' backs. You guys are self-centered, righteous assholes. I can see why the Socs hate you losers so fucking much."Complete![For You [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/42462840-256-k29371.jpg)
