But I'm not letting you go on the subway with strangers who smell awfully bad," he says. "You're a stranger, too!" I state out and cross my arms. "What's the difference?" I ask. "Well, first of all, I'm not a stranger. We both know that. And second of all... I smell good," he smirks. "Don't flatter yourself," I mock. "Please Lesley! Just get in the car," he says. And I see defeat filling up his piercing green eyes. I look down as he sighs and runs a hand through his thick black hair. "I'll give you your keys back," he says as he raises his eyebrow, waiting for me to reply. "Fine." I storm by him and slam the car door shut.Complete
The Queen of the Elves
Caroline Jones is a quiet, small, and--quite frankly--socially awkward 16 year old. She has had a lot happen and was thrown suddenly from a life of homeschooling to public school. To top it all off her parents are getting a divorce due to a tragedy that has just visited their family. She doesn't have any friends at her new school, and spends her time writing on a novel, or climbing trees with her cat. She is invisible... until Richie and Bernard kidnap her and she is thrown into a world that she only thought existed in fantasy novels. She is completely helpless. Mason Harvey is also a quiet kid, and he also had a rough past, but his rough past is from the fantastical world that Caroline was previously unaware of. Can Mason save Caroline from the two boys before she becomes forever enslaved? And what will happen when he discovers Richie and Bernard are not what they seem? *** Here's my little disclaimer, guys: This is a very happy-go-lucky almost romance that I wrote back in grade school. There is proper grammar and I personally think it has a fun plot, BUT there isn't much complexity to it. It's short and sweet if you want to give it a read :)Complete
