As I laid the flag across his casket I also laid him to rest. Little did I know that in that moment, I wasn't just losing him. I was losing her too. And it may not be in the same way but as I spoke my final words to him, and as I looked up at her, I didn't think it would with hold so many lasts within it. Last time I would see him, last time I would talk to him, last time to see his grave, last time I would ever see her. As I spoke, "I love you daddy, I miss you, and I will hold you with me everyday." I glanced up to watch my mother's retreating body.

A Flicker of Hope
°Aniya° Hope and faith-two useless words. I buried them years ago, when life proved they don't keep promises. My mom has cancer. I work myself to exhaustion just to afford a chance at saving her.

Her right hand is on my waist, and her left is on my cheeks, wiping the dry tears from earlier. "He is my boyfriend," I said to her. She stares at me intensely, her golden, hazed eyes flicking between my eyes and lip. "He is a cheating bastard. He doesn't deserve you," She said. I look at her, mesmerizing her face.

Changed me
Time was standing annoyingly still and I think I may have forgotten how to properly breathe. "Panda you have to come sit down pacing is not going to-" pushing my hand out I stopped him from saying anything. I stopped him from confirming the knowledge that there is nothing I can do to make this better. I pulled at my hair ripping a couple of strands out in the process. I hated the white walls and fluorescent lights that adorned this place. The squeaky sound that could be heard whenever anyone walked and right now I was causing a lot of squeaking. The strong smell of disinfectant burning my nose but none of it matter right now not any of it. "Where is he?" I heard the voice and my blood immediately started to boil. "You did this" was the last thing I said before I flew and was on top of his mom hitting her wildly. So much for not liking confrontation.Complete
My Brother's Best Friend
Her long brown hair dropped down from her head, hovering over me. Her breath was heavy and I couldn't even remember how we ended up like this. Her light pink lips lingered above my own. Our chest rose as fell together at the same fast pace, our bodies were so close together but I wanted more. I couldn't handle it anymore I needed more. "Taylor" her breathless voice spoke quietly to me in a whisper. I didn't respond to her though. My hand snakes up the back of her neck and tangled into her hair bringing her face to meet mine. Our lips collided smashing into long passionate kisses. The bliss of her lips on mine lingered forever. Something was wrong in the pit of my stomach, I couldn't do this. It was my brothers best friend.Complete
