The Brightest Stars
We admire our work with quiet smiles. I do a small chuckle and finally let all these sad moments become into memories that are worth remembering. Even if it means that those I loved so much might fade away; they will never be forgotten. I promise myself to do this... "Promise me that we will always remember and never forget," Nate quietly says. "What if we do?" I whisper. "What if we let the night become darker than the stars?" Nate turns, and takes small steps towards me. My heart is like a magnet bringing him closer as I turn towards him. He does that look I fell in love with the day we met. He's inches apart now and I'm left breathless. His whisper is as quiet as the moonlight shining through the windows of the class as he says, "Then I will find you to remind you of us.

Friendzoned
My head was a fuzzy mess. Never again would I mix vodka, gin, and tequila into one shot. And it was all because of one guy. One very stupid guy that I stupidly fell for. Nick Cauldron. 23-year-old, Natalie Atkins has never been in love or in a relationship for that matter. She's spent most of her life in books, reading about them. When she moves out to Los Angeles, she hopes that her luck will change, and she will finally get to live out her fantasy of falling in love. She starts working as a teacher by day and ridesharing at night to make ends meet. Nothing seems to be going as planned as she doesn't get to meet anyone while at school and most of the people she's had as ridesharing customers were either couples, old folks, or college kids drunk off their asses. Then enters Nick, a guy who seems to be a dream come true and who she shares a very great conversation with while ridesharing. He says how he is a musician and how she should come to the Blue Velvet Lounge where his band performs. She goes and finds he is a very talented singer and guitarist. She swoons for him after his performance, and they have drinks afterwards. Just as she thinks he is going to kiss her, he doesn't. Instead, he says she's not his type and would rather just be friends. This stings at first especially as she sees him go after a girl much more alluring than she is. Benji, his bandmate and best friend, tells her it's not worth it, that every girl he gets involved with is only for a hot minute and then he's on to the next one. She asks how she can get him interested in her to which he says to not care about him and move on to the next guy. But she says she's never felt this way about a guy before and Benji says he has an idea. Since Nick is his best friend, he'll turn her into the perfect catch.Complete
