"He unclenched his fist to reveal a piece of metal. Half an ounce of stainless steel, an inch and a half wide, with precise metal teeth. A key. The key to the fifth wheel recreational vehicle his mother had sold last spring to a young family in favor of something smaller and more mobile. It was a perfectly good key, just not the one he needed"

Alexander Richardson is locked out. He has no spare key, no one to call, and no way to get inside. His is the predicament that we've all been in, yet which we can not help but pity. Will Alex get inside? Or will he spend the night on his porch in the rain?All Rights Reserved

Silently Screaming by TheNowhereKid

"So that brings me back to the dream. I was there again, but this time, I was him. Beating some little kid, wasted out of my mind. I think the dream has to do with when I came home from that party, drunk. It scared the hell out of me, Camber. I don't want to be like him." His voice is down to a whisper, tears falling silently. "You aren't like him." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ever since the age of five Camber has been mute. She hasn't talked since that scarring night when her parents were murdered, and she was raped. Now, at the age of fifteen, Camber is still mute. Living in a foster home, all her foster mother would love to do is fix this 'broken girl'. But she can't. No one can. Camber would love to forget, to be normal, but she just can't. Unable to be touched without having a full fledged panic attack, she's tired of doctors poking and prodding at her. She's given up. Until he comes along. He wants to help her with her problems, and fix his own. But no one can fix the unfixable. But, maybe, against all odds, the broken boy can? Book One of the Camber Trilogy.

Rum for the Money by fernmorrow

Prohibition is the law of the land, but Nellie needs cash - after socking a gangster in the face, she's got ten days to make it right. Frightened and caught empty-handed, Nellie turns bootlegger. She accepts a job from her sly friend Lola to pick up some liquor. It should be a cinch, seeing as how Nellie's dependable mechanic friend Felix volunteers to help drive her car. But an encounter at a speakeasy sends idealistic cop Lester on the chase - and he's not exactly looking for cash. As tensions between Chicago lawmen and gangs grow worse by the day, all the fast talking in the world might not be enough to keep Nellie and her friends out of jail. Or alive. * * * * * * * * * * Felix drums his fingers along the steering wheel. A man exits the other car, dressed to the nines with a fine-looking fedora. A very bad feeling begins to swirl inside my chest. He's certainly no cop. The attendant is hurrying with the pump. Felix has tensed beside me, staring with fascination directly ahead. "Are they watching us?" "The one fella is." Felix presses his lips together. But he knows we can't leave. We need the gas. Felix has a back-up can of it stowed somewhere but that's for emergencies. Is this a real emergency? One of the other fellas hops out. Before the door slams I notice what his still-seated friend is holding. A tommy gun. My skin prickles. Felix pales. We're just playing at bootlegging now. But those folks are the real deal-complete with hired guns to protect their hooch. Felix's hand moves to the starter and I knock it away. The one in the fedora has seen us. He casually makes his way over and I know our story isn't good enough; this guy will notice we snooped even when we didn't mean to and we'll be in some sort of a mess. So I ditch our story. I throw myself at Felix and kiss him as thoroughly as I know how.

A New Ride Begins by DCKinzie

Jackson. I saw the emotion in their eyes when they spoke of him. I was only five, but I was far from unnoticing, and it just made me all the more curious. I would spend the next 13 years putting together the pieces of the puzzle; a puzzle my "parents" never wanted me to solve. And it led me here: To this hard bed, in a cheap motel with annoying as shit Christmas lights flickering through the holes in the curtains. Twenty three dollars in my pocket, my bike on E and 40 miles to go. I know who you are now and what you did. I love you, Dad. And I'm coming home. ((Slow updates))

Cherries by KxkWk_

I fisted the front of his hoodie and yanked him out the door, no doubt giving him the surprise of his life. Just as his feet hit the ground I slammed him back into the side of the car...hard. I didn't give it my all - I wanted to shake him up, not kill the fucker. His hands instinctively shielded his face, as I drew my arm back, fist clenched and ready to rearrange his face a little. He squirmed and tried his best to wriggle out of my hold. Just as I honed in on his face, being the target of my first punch, the hoodie feel back slightly and a wave of brown hair spilled out and large brown eyes met mine. It was a girl.

All I Ever Wanted by number1swifty

Emma's life was never perfect. She never had the nice house, white picket fence and a beautiful labrador puppy. She never wanted any of that anyway. All she ever wanted was loving parents for her and her sister. She's come to terms with the fact that it's never going to happen. Mike had it even worse. But for him it's in the past and all he wants to do is move on and forget. But it's not as easy as it sounds. Then one day there paths cross in the most unlikley of situations...

The Strength of Us by sabbbycat

There's always been something missing in Stevie's life. She just doesn't know what or who it is. When Stevie's father starts to act suspicious, she takes it upon herself to find out what he's hiding. But when she finally sees what secret he's keeping from her, will she be able to handle it? Will all of the pain be worth it when she finally discovers this missing thing? Can she stand to hold her strength through thick and thin, like the way her father raised her? And who's to say that an adorable teenage boy can't get in the way in all of this? Life is tough when you're sixteen. It's even tougher when you're Stevie Roberts. *please be forewarned that this was the first story i ever posted on this site. needless to say my writing style has changed and improved tremendously since then (at least i think it has). proceed with caution.*

Angel In Disguise by penguinsimagines

I'm half half, I thought - I must be a nymph. I'm a joke to my family. I love my mom so much that I have to leave her behind before I do terrible things. Then. I met this girl. I know it's wrong. I know I shouldn't but I fell. And, worst, the monster inside me wants her badly. I don't know where to begin at all. And I sure don't know how I'll end this misery. ----------------------------- As of February 15, 2022: #4 in 5SOSPREFERENCE As of December 2024 #1 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERPREFERENCE #2 in 5SOSPREFERENCE #10 in CALUMHOODIMAGINE #13 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERIMAGINE #10 in 5SOSIMAGINE #9 in CALUMHOODFANFICTION #13 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERFANFICTION #11 in CALUMHOODFANFIC #22 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERFANFIC #4 in MICHAELCLIFFORDIMAGINE As of February 2025: #10 in CALUMOODFANFICTION #17 in 5SOSIMAGINE #14 in CALUMHOODIMAGINE #20 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERIMAGINE #11 in MICHAELCLIFFORDIMAGINE #1 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERPREFERENCE VOTE.

As I said, I'll provide everything for you." He turned to look at me. I nodded. "You know you didn't really give me a choice by making that payment already Mr. Tipton." I spoke. He walked over to face me with a smirk. "That was the point. It got you here didn't it? And please Kaydence, call me Damon." "You're point was to get me here to get me into a forced agreement?"

Random Story by noone1000000

"All ready?" My mom says cheerfully "Because you look ready to go." "All ready." I say before I look out the window. She starts up the truck and heads out of the driveway. Some time through the drive my mom starts small talk. "So, how are you?" She asks politely "Was it decent? Okay?" "It was" I kind of think it over before continuing "It was... Not the place for me. Kind of like trying to put the square block in the triangle hole. I didn't fit in. Always being yelled at, I suppose." "I see" My mom begins "I am sorry for not talking more to you. Life has been busy. But I am glad to see you making a change for the better. If that is or was in your mind." I just nod. "My life wasn't fair there." I open up about what has been happening. "It was always about my step siblings or step mom. Always expecting me to be there, when they weren't there for me. Being expected to drop everything even if they knew several months in advance. My step mom wasn't the parent I needed. And my dad didn't step in to stop it." My mom sighs, just nodding as she listens. I know I should have chosen to live with her. But all those years ago my dad wasn't dating anyone. But to be honest neither was my mom. I feel bad now choosing dad over her. As I look out the window, my eyes feel heavy, and before I even know it I'm asleep.
