My Brother Says I'm Dangerous by The_Muffin_Dude

"Eva!" My Brother slams the car door shut, storming over to where we sit. I roll my eyes, not wanting to deal with him. "Go home Nick." I tell him, picking up another can of beer. "Get in the car!"

How it Happened by lalalalawriting

So, I'm kinda clumsy. I tripped when I walked across the stage to receive my high school diploma, knocked down a ladder that was supporting my dad, and sneezed into a wall. Yup, you read that right. I sneezed myself into a wall. So maybe I am a walking train-wreck trapped in a lanky twenty-two-year-old girl's body. At least my family loves me-tolerates me might be a better way of phrasing it-but even with my clumsiness I'm still able to get by with minimal craziness and just a whole lot of embarrassment. A whole lot. That is until the fateful September day I find myself chasing a chicken into a wedding cake. My sister's wedding cake. . . on her wedding day. . . in the middle of the reception. . . in front of two hundred other guests. I've got a new number one on my list of embarrassing moments, but this time I swear it wasn't my fault. I blame that chicken, my grandma, and the stupid bowtie she put on it, probably hoping to marry me off, so she can have the best man all to herself. Okay, fine, so maybe it was totally my fault, but. . . This is how it happened ©2018 ℓαℓαℓαℓαwriting

Faithfully Yours by april-anne-may

Catherine couldn't believe her luck when her cousin sent out a wedding invitation. What was most exciting of all was that she will be going to the States to attend the wedding. So she packed her clothes, her Nikon camera, and her list of the must-see places in the city of California. At the airport, she kissed her mom and dad goodbye but laughed out loud and rolled her eyes as they said, "Don't get drunk and fall in love while you're there". Then more hugging and tears as they finally let go of her and let her get inside the terminal. Her parents' warning was not unwarranted for she had just recently mended her broken heart. Maybe she should be wary of guys whose only intention were to play games or maybe this time she will play their games too? Does she have the heart to do that?
