Ever since the invention of Glass, a flexible and interactive touchscreen surface that now covers most of the world, Blip has led a comfortable life. It was his father who invented it. But Blip's unthinking happiness is interrupted when he meets a girl for whom the Glass has been anything but a blessing.
Serafina is the daughter of a struggling janitor, and she has been deaf from birth. Every cent her family makes must be saved up for a hopefully better future. She has never let herself have an opinion about those who are rich and above her--until she meets a boy to whom Glass means the world.
*An August 2012 Camp NaNoWriMo novel
and a November 2012 NaNoWriMo novel*
Note: Because this is a product of two NaNoWriMos, there are several flaws in this story. I am aware of them. Also because of this, it never quite reached the place in the plot that I wanted it to go. Perhaps someday I will continue it. Perhaps not.

LET ME HATE YOU
A marriage neither wanted. A hatred neither understands. Two strangers tied by a past that stains everything between them. He never wanted a wife. Especially not her. Cold, distant, and poisoned by assumptions, Amaan enters the forced marriage with one intention- to keep his distance and keep his resentment alive. Asmaira enters with something far heavier- guilt. Not to protect him. Not to save him. But because she knows the truth of what happened... and she cannot bear to confess it. They have never met. But the moment they do, the air turns sharp- full of tension, unspoken accusations, and the kind of hate that feels too much like longing. He despises her for a sin she never committed. She punishes herself for a sin she never confessed. And marriage turns into a battleground where silence is a weapon... and closeness is a threat. In this house, love is impossible. Trust is deadly. But hatred? Hatred is the only thing keeping them alive.

Unwanted Wedlock
''Let me help you, ma'am,'' a man who was probably the flight attendant said. Damn. Ryerson Reeds even had handsome flight attendants. The man stooped a bit, leaning close to her and taking the seatbelt from her hands. He was holding eye contact and Lyla felt herself grow amused as she stared back at him. He was going to start buckling her up before someone cleared their throat loudly. They both looked up to meet Reeds' blue-green eyes. ''I think I can help my wife, thank you,'' he said. Lyla's eyebrows shot up. The dude barely talked to her and he was already getting possessive? How does that even add up? Reeds stopped taking the two parts of the seat belt in his hands, ''you couldn't do this without help?'' he muttered to her savagely. Lyla glared at him, before he could even get the belt close to her she took it from his hands and snapped it in the right place. She gave him a sickly sweet smile and Reeds simply scoffed and walked to his seat. The rest of the plane ride was quiet. One would think after that small exchange they would start having some kind of conversation. Wrong. ___________________ This isn't a cliche story where the girl falls for the guy by a simply little gaze. She's stubborn, she's maybe a little relatable, and she's assertive. But she didn't think she was for him. Lyla Vell; the name itself oozed the confidence which was her, and Ryersoon Reeds? Two words to describe him: Arrogant and plain painful. And when these two personalities are in an arranged marriage. Shit about to go down. ___ This is my first Wattpad story. Hope you'll like it! This entire story is NOT mature. Only the last few chapters are and you can still finish the plot without reading those few mature chapters. For those who are hesitant to read the story because it is tagged mature, I'm promising you only the last few chapters are mature, you can read chapters 1-19 without any disturbance of smut. That was for those who're hesitant. Love you. DON'T COPY MY WORK!Complete

Transformers Prime: fanfiction SilverMega
This story is going to be a little bit different. I'm still working on this. In this story Megatron does have a daughter. But he sent her away in an escape pod when she was only a baby. Well, sparkling in their terms and language. She wasn't even a year old or a month old when he sent her away in an escape pod before the war broke out and started on Cybertron. He only did it and he only thought about her survival. Because he already lost his daughter's carrier. Which means that he already lost the love of his life which is his sparkmate. And he wasn't going to let that happen by losing his daughter in the hands of the Autobots. She is all that he has to remember his sparkmate and her carrier. In this story there's this little girl named Daisy who lives on earth. But she's human but she doesn't even know that she is Cybertronian and that she is the daughter of the almighty Megatron and the leader of the Decepticons. But Daisy feels like she doesn't belong here and she feels like that, she belongs somewhere else and that she doesn't feel like she's even human but something else but much bigger than she realizes. But when Megatron discovers her he is looking at her and he notices that she looks familiar and doesn't know why. Until he sees a toy that she has in her hand. He gently picks the toy up and he looks at it until he sees a description that is written in Cybertronian language he reads it. It says to SilverMega my little princess, love sire. Suddenly it hits Megatron that Daisy is SilverMega and that she is his sparkling, that he sent away in an escape pod a long time ago before the war broke out and started on Cybertron. I won't tell you the rest. This is all that I'm going to give you. If you want to find out more about SilverMega and how her life was living on earth. Before her life had changed around her drastically when Megatron found her and discovered her and is now living with her true sire which is Lord Megatron.
