Please, try not to hate her. She's just a girl, after all. She's still figuring things out and doesn't understand what love truly means. She's never learned how to love or be loved. It's not entirely her fault. Others should have tried harder to understand her instead of blaming her. They left her feeling abandoned and labeled her as a monster. She's lost in a whirlwind of emotions she can't comprehend. So please, don't condemn her. ________________ Entry for the 8 Chapter Challenge and I have succeeded in it!!

"This is a nightmare, it's only a nightmare..." I say to myself as I try to catch my breath while leaning against a tall pine tree. Only for a moment do I stay in that position until I hear a twig snap. I quickly leap away from the tree and run as fast as I can. "Wake up (Y/N)! just wake up!!!" I think to myself. "You are awake my dear..." I hear that voice. That damn voice. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!" I scream. I continue to run past trees and hopping over large rocks. The mist in the air begins to get thicker as I continue this race. "Why me? out of all the people this had to happen to me!" my brain races with thoughts until my foot gets caught by a tree root sticking out of the ground. I fall hitting my head on a rock. My vision is blurry and I can feel a warm liquid begin to stream down my face. "My dear (Y/N), look what you have done to yourself. You shouldn't have tried to run away." the voice goes through my head again. I look around and see nothing but trees. "LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" My voice begins to grow sore from the constant running and yelling. The sound of leaves crunching comes from behind me and I whip my head around until my eyes are met with him. "My dear (Y/N), you've made quite the mess of yourself. You know you are not aloud to leave......now you'll have to be punished." The figure says without any facial expression or motion. The figure begins to walk forward towards me. I try to back away until my vision becomes black and all I can hear is static.

*Sequel to We - Ourselves - Us* A year has passed since it all went down. They all made it, but it was hard to keep contact. Their paths have mostly split. Everyone has been consumed by their own personal darkness. Everyone can try to help, but you can't do everything. Issues will always arise. There is no avoiding it. You can't be there for everyone. Not everyone is going to make it. What happens when someone new enters your life? What happens when you can't love yourself? What happens when you have to do too much? What happens when you were born as the wrong person? What happens when you drop out of school and need to give up? What happens when the world wants you dead? What happens when you have to watch it all and feel helpless? What happens when 7 paths that should have never met finally split apart?

Tell me, Lord, why me? Dealing with this pain and misery. The weight of the world on my shoulders is killing me, trying to provide for me and my family. The devil is content and focused on stopping me guess it is like back in the day where we all sin. I am focusing on a higher power just changing what's within but it's hard. I wish I would have known it from the start instead of being born into this world with a permanent scar. "Thou shall not kill but you see the killing is daily innocent blood being spilled from aborted babies. Shit is crazy but this is the life that you made for me a permanent pavement." I walk I let my light shine but I am steady stuck in the dark this never-ending story of conquering and amazing glory is this what you really wanted for me? I'm asking will I ever see better days lonely nights on my knees I prayed but do you hear my cry or look and nod your head and walk by but fuck it you know I tried just have mercy on me when I die.

"So... what about us?" he asked, and I looked at him, a bit bewildered. "What?" I inquired. "You and me... what are we, Sera? You know how you affect me. You make me feel like I'm losing my mind, and I feel incomplete when you're not around. I yearn for your touch, your scent, and everything about you drives me wild," he admitted, his words close to my face. I let out a shaky breath as I felt a warmth spread through my body. "Thad, I think you're getting something wrong," I began, but he interrupted me. "No, you're the one refusing to admit that you're feeling the same way I am," he insisted, causing me to fall silent. He was right, I couldn't deny the feelings i had for him. They had always been there, but they had intensified with his return. ●●●●●●□□□●●□□□●●● In their final year of high school, Thaddeus and Sera epitomized the dream teen couple, envied by all.

Fast forward eight years, Sera, now a skilled chef, found herself unexpectedly intersecting with Thaddeus, who had transformed into a bustling CEO of his father's company Whitlick and Co. As they reentered each other's lives, Thaddeus discovered an irresistible pull towards Sera, while she, fearing she'd only bring trouble, attempted to keep a safe distance. What happens when a girl is trying to stay away from a guy due to his obsession with her and for his safety in order for him not to remember her while he keeps chasing her around trying to find out why he can't seem to stay put and calm if he doesn't see her? 🤭🧐 Let's find out!! ~40,000 word count _All images are from Pinterest.

(Highest rank- #80 in general fiction) I look down from the window. "This is gonna be enough", I think to myself as I grab the sides of the window and attempt to climb it. I sit on the window sill with my legs facing outside, everything looked so tiny from up here, the cars, the buses, the stray dogs.. Even the humans.. I stand on top of the sill and take a moment to myself. My life wasn't supposed to end here! I wasn't supposed to fall in love, or get distracted! I feel like crying and a tear escapes my eyes, I look to the ground and take a deep breath. "It's time to let go", I think to myself. My cold fingers slowly let go of the edge and I close my eyes. I feel myself being pulled. My breathing hardens, and I fall, maybe to my death.. "I'm sorry, Sid", I say before I close my eyes, maybe forever..
