"Mommy, whats this? Why don't you have one?" She asked, looking into her moms vanity mirror at the glowing blue bar across her heart.
"Well... that is a sort of timer. It counts down to a very special or very sad day. For some people, when the bar disappears, they fall in love. For others, it counts down to their last heartbeat."
"Mommy, what is mine counting down to?"
"Nobody knows until it happens, sweetheart," she answered with a fearful look in her eye. Her daughters bar was longer than her own had been leading up to meeting her husband. But it was shorter than her husbands had been when he died.

Back to Square One
As I stare at myself in the mirror, I don't even recognize the reflection. I'm a married woman, and I can't get over that. I'm only wearing red lace underwear at the moment. I wear sexy panties and bras now because I have someone who's seeing them every day other than myself. Does he wear special boxers...? I'm not ready to think about Silas that way yet. It is still too weird. I am a little surprised that I haven't had a meltdown yet. I've never had a panic attack before, but my life has been turned upside-down. I have a pretty damn good excuse to have one. Everyone is probably expecting that I will. They may even be surprised that I haven't yet. Eight years erased... Eight years to learn... I stare at my reflection in the mirror. I'm still me... just older. I rub lotion into my face, examining it closely. Still me. Same blue eyes. Same shallow dimples in my cheeks. Same lips that cover straight teeth that my parents paid a lot of money for. I step back and take in my body. A little curvier then I remember, but not by much. I guess with marriage comes comfort weight. My hair is the same blonde, just longer. How odd to have everything the same... yet so different. Completed July of 2019Complete
The Golden 30 Last Seconds
The Golden 30 Last Seconds "0 minutes and 59 seconds." I say out loud. They all look at me, confused. "That's how long I have before they come. I'm sorry I didn't ell you earlier, Brook and Blake." I look at Jason who has sadness, disbelief, despair, guilt, and loneliness mixed in one on his face. I tilt my head at him. Why does he feel guilty? It's not his fault that thy are here. It's mine. But why is he angry? "Jason did you tell Brook?" He shakes his head, not meeting my gaze. I sigh. "Please tell Blake and Brook While I'm Gone." Jason's eyes snap up to mine. "Gone? Where are you going? Aren't you coming back?" He says with panic in his voice. I look at my friends one by one. "Thirty seconds." I whisper to my best friends a moment before I teleport out of the space ship.Complete![Souled [Editing]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/11205248-256-k748059.jpg)
Souled [Editing]
Numbers. They run the world. Whether it's time or how much money you make, numbers dominate everything. Including romance. Who knew that something so unpredictable and spontaneous as love could be tracked down to the second. Everyone receives a Countdown. Everyone gets that perfect love, that perfect person just for them. But not everyone's perfect love story works out perfectly. Meredith always stared at the little clock on her wrist, counting down the days, hours, minutes, seconds until she met the One. Her Soul Mate. But what if her Soul Mate was the one person who she could never be with? Nate never worried about his Soul Mate. Or really even wanted one. He ignored the faint ticking the Countdown clock made. He watched people fall in love as he made his way through life. But he didn't know what surprise he was in for when the clock hit zero. Neither expected the other. Everything was picture perfect at first... until reality set in. They were complete opposites, and not in the cliche way. When another person steps into their lives, seemingly perfect for Nate, and throws a monkey-wrench into their efforts, will they keep trying? Or will they forget the whole thing and go their separate ways?Complete
Technicolor Beat
"It's like . . . you know how at the end of summer camp or college everyone packs all their stuff up and drives off before you so they can go home and reunite with family, and the whole camp is empty and you're standing in the middle of your vacant dorm because your ride isn't here yet?" ". . . Yeah?" "It's like that. Immortality is being left behind at camp alone, and you don't know why." She couldn't remember her name. Didn't really matter, plenty of substitutes available. They almost numbered the amount of years she'd been in this world. Luckily for her, there was one reason she was still here, and as soon as she figured out what the hell it was she could fix it and move on. He remembered her. And what she looked like, how she took her coffee, everything. He couldn't get her out of his head. She was his muse, a glimpse into the impossible where he may finally have something to write about. But what happens when inspiration turns into love, especially with someone who is unable to reciprocate it? Does tragedy or intimacy await them? What is destiny, really?
Lost And Found (4 Shots) ✔️
"Lost Friends To Lovers" Dad told me real love happens once and when it does, never hide your feelings. Too bad, he told me late. I held them and lost her. Until I found her again. Blue-eyed, brown hair. That dimple on the right cheek, it hasn't changed much. Well, she hasn't changed much either. I can feel her body exuding the same warmth as the old times, her innocence still shining bright like it used to. This little surprise is racing my heart even when she is far from me...wait? Far? With her eyes busy finding something in her handbag, she is coming toward me. Me. Is my back erecting? What is she doing here? In a school? Is she my son's teacher? I find myself curious now. But then, she takes a seat beside me and smiles at the teacher. I can not help but wonder. Is she a parent too? Short StoryComplete
The King And His Nerd. #1
PROLOGUE A small boy lies curled up in his bed, trying to hide himself. The screams and shouts of his parents echoed throughout the empty, cold house. A small toddler girl, snuggled in his arms, fusses in her sleep. A loud crash, followed by a cry of pain, makes the boy flinch and tear up. He pulls the baby girl close and covers his ears. 'Dad is hurting mom again' The boy cries softly, so as not to be heard, weeping at the unfairness of the world. Hours later, his bedroom door opens, and a soft hand touches his cheek. "Ian, my baby boy, I've got to go for a while, ok?" A woman's voice calls softly. The boy sits up, wiping his tears. "How long will you be gone?" The boy sniffles. "Mom is going to live with Uncle Sam for a while, just so she can make dad's company bigger. Make sure you take good care of Naomi. Don't forget to clean up after yourself, and get good grades in school." The boy's mother ruffles his hair and kisses him on the cheek. "I love you buddy. I'll be back in a few years. I know that sounds like a long time but, I'll be back before you know it. I just have to make dad happy." The boy nods, refusing to cry. 'I have to protect Naomi. I'm alone now.' the boy thinks to himself, determined. His mother stands up and walks away, her feet softly padding down the hallway.Complete
His Lovely Wife
"Who are you?" It was a question he's asked her a thousand times, that's cut her deep a thousand times, a question that never ends. All she ever wants is for him to remember her even if it only lasts a week, a day, or even just thirty minutes-it'll be enough. She won't lose heart. She will answer that question a thousand times, bear the cuts a thousand times; she will deal with this even if it never ends. Because until he can finally remember her other than just as "The woman with the hair clip," she'll smile as usual and keep giving him the same answer: "I'm your wife." *Recommended to read on the phone app. The web browser doesn't space some of the parts the way I want it to, but honestly anyone willing to read this anyways is more than enough for me and I greatly appreciate it.Complete
