Every kid dreams of being famous. We all want to be known and liked by others, even if were too stubborn to admit it. Evan was no different. However, he had been born in the shantytowns outside of Metro city, the city which horded to itself his life's dream, The Dome of the Games. The shantytowns were inhabited by those not able to bribe their way in, leaving them with no where else to go. Growing up, he'd listen to the men and women cheering at the matches, an unbelievable explosion of voices that could never be stopped, coming from the millions of people who lived inside that crystalline city. Someday they would cheer for him, no matter what it took. Nothing was going to stand in his way, he was going to be seen.

"Do you ever get scared of being happy?" He asked softly, also pretty tired. I kept my eyes closed as I answered, my fingers softly drawing circles on his chest. "All the time. I used to a lot more, but, the downfalls seem a lot less daunting now that I have someone to free-fall with," I replied, and I looked up to see him smile a little at that, "We're just dancing in the rain these days.. there's no need to be afraid of the inevitable clouds that are gonna pop up." • • • College.

My Bad Boy
************ I opened my locker but realized something was wrong the minute I looked inside it. Something like paint splashed in my face and on my clothes. I heard laughter behind me and instantly turned around to see those five Moran's heading towards me. "Now, no one disrespects me okay? I went easy on you, since it was your first day, but don't mess with me again. Alright love" Zack said with his signature smirk. I saw red at this point. I moved towards Zack and the others keeping contact with Zack the entire time. I stopped inches away from Zack. My furiously sparkling eyes met with his amused one. And then I did the one thing I wanted to do so badly. I slapped him. ************************* When 17 year old Ashley Ross has to move to a new country with her mom and sister, she has no idea what awaits her.

Ash's Darling | ✔
"Mae, show me." He demanded. I knew this would come up someday. My scars are from years ago when I wasn't happy with myself, or happy with anything really. I'm better now but I still don't like showing them to people. Most people ignore them but I knew once Ash saw them that he was going to ask. "Mae." He says again. What if he doesn't like them? What if he thinks they're ugly? What if he hears the story of them and decides he doesn't want me anymore? What do I do then? ... I slowly took off my jacket and showed him my wrist. "Why would you ever do that darling?" Tears started forming in my eyes. "I'm sorry. It was years ago when I wasn't happy and it's a long story." "Darling, look at me." He told me, lifting my chin. "I'm not mad at you. How long has it been since you've done that?" "Five years." "That's amazing, Mae." "You don't hate them?" "I hate that you felt the need to do that, but no, I don't hate them." He kissed my forehead, calming me down.Complete
His Sunshine | ✓
She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights.
