Staring through her window, all she can do is dream about the outside world.
After being struck with scarlet fever, Bridgette Pierce was bedridden in her attic bedroom. With only her dreams, journal and the sky to keep her company.
June 2nd, 1964
The world below is so bright. The lights in the streets, the glowing windows. Up in the sky, only the brightest stars can shine. What if you could dissolve the sky and see all the stars? Would they be as beautiful as the city lights? More so? Someday, I'm going to dissolve the sky and float away.

Little Dark One
The day she found out that her name literally meant "little dark one", Ciara knew that her life was going to be nothing but an endless tunnel of darkness, from family issues to mental issues. She was a lost soul roaming in a lost world, seeking love and happiness, wishing for peace and harmony. Ciara's only friend was nature, birds were her alarm, trees were her mates, the rain was her happiness and flowers were her inspiration. She'd wake up every morning by the sunrise making sure she's the first soul to greet the beautiful warm sun and that's when she can carry on with her day. She hasn't always been a dark soul, she believed in the saying "There's light at the end of every tunnel." She knew deep down that being in that tunnel was temporary, she knew that one day her soul will finally find peace. However, she never knew when, or how.Complete
Deeper
In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart.

Lilah
She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)Complete

Oliver, leave me. I have to go inside", I said making a failed attempt to free myself. "What is wrong with...", and the rest of the words got lost as his lips covered mine in a hungry kiss. He held me even closer and I closed my eyes. His mouth so warm and the caress of his lips soft. He tentatively tasted with his tongue as I opened my mouth for him to explore further. Sooner the kiss turned more passionate and I led out a soft moan. I knotted my fist in his shirt from under his suit pulling him closer to me.

HELP ME
DURING MY LIFE During my life, I had to learn to meet my adversity gracefully, in my active life, I have amused myself in writing poems, I scribbled words down, and see where it would lead me it didn't matter what kind of place I was at, or emotions, I have written it down, because writing is a way I can relieve my pains. Whatever I do, or what I may be feeling, good or bad, I write and I write where my imaginations take control and lead me into a place of transformation, like magic, where all those images pop into action, bring out their true characters. This is a place I buried my anger and all my daily pains of what this life brings my way. I write and I keep on writing until I have nothing more to write about at the moment, but there is a lot of time I wrote continuously without interruptions. You will find mixed poems of long ago I have written. -Judy Emery © 1990 The Queen Of Darken Dreams Poetic Lilly Emery.Complete

With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it.
