Because Nobody is better than Somebody, and Somebody makes her smile though lips painted red with lipstick she doesn't like, wear the black dress that is in the back of her closet for a reason, makes her labor over curling irons and hair for longer than she wants to - but Nobody lets her dance under night skies in the rain with streetlights instead of stars - and that is everything and nothing at all.
Oh, c'est la vie; such is life.
[or Evan remembers when Julie was seven instead of seventeen, when they didn't know the suburbs were where people watched life go by and where everyone talked but no one said anything, and he wishes the rain would last forever]
...
[basically just a short story about a boy in love with his childhood friend who has no idea; centered around one snapshot moment/an epiphany]

Vague update schedule, unrelated stories. I usually update every few months but sometimes I get busy. If you see that this hasn't been updated in 3 months dont worry! That's just how I work. 1) I'm Set Free: Aziraphale finds himself distracted by a certain demon, and Crowley finds out that he likes having his hair touched 2) This Thing Called Love: Love is in the air and so is frustration. Crowley gets upset and takes a five-day nap, waking only to hang out with Aziraphale and visit The Them [I have never seen titanic it has nothing to do with it] 3) Champagne?: Crowley is dining alone tonight when he gets some company from a stranger he wishes would leave him be 4) Aziraphale Loves: Aziraphale is a lover many things in life, books, good wine, Crowley, wearing sensible shoes, people, but Aziraphale also loves food, and he just happens to have a poorly timed craving for crepes. 5) Crowley Shrugged: The pair had been talking and sipping expensive wine, during their conversation they had started talking about wings and flying, then Aziraphale had stated that he hadn't used his wings in a few hundred years, which had bewildered Crowley 6) Tight Pants: Aziraphale and Crowley go out to dinner and Aziraphale gets jealous when someone invites Crowley back to their flat. Snake!Crowley and wings 7) just an announcement 8) dancing in the rain: Dancing in the rain isn't always ideal, even though it's always quite romantic. A little boy pointed and said 'look, mummy, they're in love' this made Crowley smile and wave at the boy (I've run out of room)Complete
Unwritten Pages
(COMPLETED) Winterlyn (Winter) Evaline Lawly is the school's biggest...no one. She's not noticed anywhere. She's not loud, she's not a teacher's pet. She's not popular, and she's not skinny nor fat. Winter is just...herself. But nobody notices her. No one knows that she exists. She's just another regular kid that drags themselves to high school everyday. Not one of those popular kids. Not a nerd either. What happens...when she commits suicide? Police and most classmates are unsure why she would want to kill herself. For one thing, she was not clinically depressed. She didn't have bullies. No one made fun of her. But as her journal falls into the hands of one of her friends, he realizes that Winter's world may have been much darker than he realized. In Unwritten Pages, dive right into the pages of Winter's final year, her life, her friends, and the dark reason why she was driven towards death. ~NaNoWriMo 2011 *Highly unedited* WARNING: Somewhat poorly written. Plot holes, mistakes, unrealistic, tedious (drones/boring). READ AT OWN RISK Extra notes: There is some slut-bashing, which I am at this time very ashamed of it. Do not read it if you do tolerate like slut-bashing. I apologize for this. I was beginning high school when I wrote this. Not that I'm saying my age excuses my previous behaviour, but I was very unaware of this at the time. For those who don't mind slut-bashing, you should mind! It's an incredibly hurtful thing to do and is very misogynistic (look it up if you need to). We live in a patriarch society, and women should not be slut-bashing each other just because of promiscuity. Here's some food for thought: When men do it, how come they're seen as amazing and desirable and are given a kind of 'award' and respect from everyone else around them, but when women are promiscuous, they only get hatred from other people? What someone does in the bedroom is no one's business but them and their partner, and no one should be put down for that.Complete

His Little; My Kitten | Completed
Allison "Allie" Heart is twenty-five and has a really good relationship with her parents and friends. Though her body is a little different and she has some mental things to overcome, she's overall a happy little. Yes, Allie is a little. She's never found "the one" to be her daddy dominant. Well, that was until the night of a storm when she reunited with a childhood friend and meets someone who absolutely adores/cherishes her. However, there are more twists and turns than Allie expected to the relationship, although none were bad. But the guy she adores seems to be hiding something that tears him up inside (or used to before Allie came into his life). What's he hiding? And is it as terrible as it seemed to be, or is he just simply blaming himself needlessly? And when an old tormentor comes to town, can Allie overcome her past? __________________ WARNINGS: Straight romance (manxwoman) Intersexual female (male and female genitalia) 18+ Smut Daddy Dom/Little Girl (DDLG) Mommy Dom/Little Girl (MDLG) Caretaking Gay characters Childhood bully trauma Good warnings: Fluff and cuteness (lots) Good friendships and family Therapy __________________ This story will have gay characters in it, so if you don't like that, please don't read.
