"Why do we live?"
"So that we may one day prove ourselves worthy of dying," she says without much thought.
"And what is death?"
"Victory," Oliver replies with a sullen grin.
He smiles. "Is that what you really believe?"
"It's what you taught us to believe," Eden says, his hair a stroke of golden in the afternoon light.All Rights Reserved

Opposites attract by Clarisseirlgf

Maeve always had a certain charm about her. She could smile at someone and they were weak in the knees, look at someone with her innocent eyes and get whatever she wanted. Maeve knew that she was attractive and that's why it confuses her that one person doesn't fall at her feet, begging for her attention. Instead, it almost becomes the other way around

Dark Chocolate | Nico di Angelo [Completed] by prettymuchasleep

"She was the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen because she laughed and smiled with such genuine care he almost forgot that she might be hurting inside because of him. She was an angel and he had ruined her way to fly because all he wanted her to do was stay besides him. "He wanted her to be happy, because she made him smile, and he made her hurt." {{ THIS IS MY FIRST WORK! IT IS NOT PERFECT SO READ AT YOUR OWN RISK }}

Dialogue with Death by Ademianov

How often do we confront the sobering reality that tomorrow is not guaranteed, that each breath could be our last? What thoughts will flood our consciousness in those final, fleeting moments? Whose faces will flash before our eyes? The inescapable nature of mortality often haunts our sleepless nights, a reminder of our fragile existence.In this narrative, we embark on a journey through the lives of diverse individuals, each offering a unique lens through which we view life's pivotal moments. These characters serve as mirrors, reflecting facets of our own humanity and underscoring the urgency of chasing our dreams, living without the burden of regret, and embracing each day as if it were our last.As we navigate these stories, we are challenged to consider: When we engage in our final dialogue with Death, will we be able to meet its gaze with a serene smile, confident that we have lived a life true to ourselves? This exploration invites readers to contemplate their own mortality not with fear, but as a catalyst for living more fully, more authentically, and with unwavering purpose.

We Will Never Sleep by 20klopez

"Goodbye, Oliver." I say, softly. He looks up at me, tears in his eyes. "Why do you leave now?" "Because I'm going to fix myself before I see you again." I promise. "You don't need to be fixed." "I need to be fixed, Oliver. I'm Shadow and Guardian at heart. No room for Elemental. I'll miss playing with water, though." I joke, the humor running dry. Oliver's eyes grow dark. "Just go." He says, closing his eyes. This was his true emotions showed. "What do you want me to say next, Sage?" He asks in a demanding manner. "That I'm okay knowing what those scars mean? That I know at any moment, something can burst into my room, and I'd never know? I was better off not knowing!" He spits out every word with venom, and I sense an ending reaching us. "Hell, I was better without you." "Good." I say shortly, turning my back to him, and picking up my luggage.

Aurelia [h.s.] by StylisticMoods

"Aren't you afraid?" "Of what? Dying?" "Yes, exactly that." She took a moment to deliberately pick the right words in her mind because she knew he was going to ask why the moment after she answered, "No. Death is unavoidable, it's a part of life that is inescapable since birth. It's written in our very nature. The problem is that people spend too much time worrying about death and not living their lives to their fullest potential. We were born to both live and die and that seems to be forgotten somewhere along the way. I am not afraid of dying even though I could die at any given day at any given time because I'm making the most of my life and I know that something better awaits me when I go." [Edited!]

Please Don't Take My Sunshine Away [Solangelo] by hcllasad

Nico di Angelo- The child of Hades. He was a depressed ball of rage wherever he went. He preferred spending his time in his cabin, alone. He would often forget to take care of himself such as go outside to eat. Nobody would ever like him. Or so he thought... Will Solace- The child of Apollo. Basically a dream. He lifted everyone's spirit as soon as he walked through the door. He literally glowed when he was happy, which was most of the time. He was the best healer out of the whole camp. Come on, who wouldn't have the hots for a smart, hot, teen doctor? So out of all the people he could've found interesting, why Nico? That's what the child of Hades is trying to figure out while he's oblivious to the complete obvious. Might Will actually have a chance to break down Nico's walls and find the key to his heart?
