Glimpse (Completed) by authorofnone
7 parts Complete
I feel something slam into me, knocking the breath from my lungs. Only it is not the car that hits me; it is a person. He takes the brunt of the fall, rolling under me so that my face does not brush the street, but the force of the impact knocks me out of his arms and I skid across the asphalt into the grass. The car speeds past, flying down the road before disappearing on a turn. I wait in agony until my lungs finally work, and then I roll onto my back and gasp for air. "Are you okay?" Liam's voice is frantic as he crawls toward me. He cups my face in his hands and checks my body for injuries. This time I know I am not imagining things. There are dark wings coming out of his back. I sputter a few fragmented sentences before I can get the words out. "What are you?"

One direct text message. To the wrong person. Coincidence, fate, mistake, call it whatever you want. All Mia Lynch knows is that when she texted someone, the person who received the message wasn't the one she intended it for. Maybe she fell right into the clutches of fate, or maybe the conversations that follow will only lead to future heartbreak. Maybe it was meant to be, maybe it wasn't. Only time will tell, and when you're on the internet, time is all you have and don't, simultaneously. "But how most stories begin with a hi or a hey, ours didn't. Ours began with a WTF." She smiles, tilting her head, "Maybe that's why our story is different from the rest." Cover made by @unicornacorn All rights reserved 2019®
