-Short Story-

In the Utopia of Unico, where no person is too much alike, a girl, Courter Dessiny, is too different. She wants to fade with the background noise and fit into a community which thrives on embracing differences and flaws. She wants to go unnoticed and just be accepted, although she knows the only way for that to happen is to be exactly who they want her to be.

This was originally written for a short English assignment, but I thought Why not put it up for a few people to enjoy? 
So, I'm putting it up, but I'm leaving it to you whether to enjoy it or not.
The Giver and a few other post-apocalypse utopian based stories were inspiration for this piece.

SATELLITE EYES: THE WAITING SPOT by Verserkerv

Hi! As a newbie in writing, this is one of my first works. I'm never good in this field of art but this is my one and only outlet given the harsh circumstances. This was actually written from mid-June until early-July, 2015, and this was already long-gone completed before I enrolled in my 4th yr. CE courses. The narrative/essay is all about the sparkly encounters between two, light-year distant strangers. By the way, shout-out to that real/imaginary girl. I know this is insane, and I don't know if I'm wasting my time doing all of this, but all I want is just to express my utmost gratitude for such a memory she had incorporated within me. I also sincerely apologize for being such a creep. But she is the soul of this work. She's one in a million. I wish she would notice this, though that is very largely far from happening. I don't mind if she's already having someone, but I just really wanna thank her for all of this. It's more than a year that I had not seen her, but I don't know what is with this damn loyalty to her. Both of us never knew each other, but I feel so attached to her. My heart races upon the sight of her, but now, we lost those intersections. Probably because of different time schedules. It's been a year. And I'm missing her. I'm even planning a sequel for this one. And this is the only gift that I can give to her. But please don't take this piece seriously. The plot of this work is merely imaginary. Probably, while reading this, you may bring with you a calculator, a protractor, a UST map, and a Metro Manila map for easier understanding. Don't get lost. Don't worry, the pacing is slow enough.

#9 in UTOPIA 3/3/19 I couldn't take my eyes off of Dean as he stared at the glimmering stars in the night sky. "I believe the story of our lives is already written in the stars. Our destiny is already given to us. The end of our lives will always end the same, no matter what we try to do to change it." I watched a strand of his blond hair fall over his ear. "What does that mean?" "It means that if you are the person who is destined to take the two parts of this country and bring them together, then it will happen one way or another." His heterochromia eyes found mine and I found myself entranced by them. "And Mel, by the looks of things right now, I'd say your story has started and you are already working towards your destiny." ** One country. Two nations. After the country split in two, the nations renamed themselves the Ameliorates and the Extricates. The Ameliorates live in a community full of stability and order. Melody Sharpe is the daughter of the Ameliorates' leaders. All her life she was told that the Extricates lived in a place full of chaos and destruction. What happens when she finds herself questioning everything she had once been taught? What does she do when she meets Dean Martin--the son of the Extricate leaders--who tells her that everything she knows is a lie? Why did the Extricates really split away from the Ameliorates? Why do the Extricates fear the Ameliorates more than anything else? Are the Extricates really the "bad" side? Melody starts asking questions--something she isn't supposed to do--and it might just lead her into the middle of a war.

Also Available On Inkitt "Can I ask you something?" She asked softly. "Sure," he smiled. She looked up at him. "Why did you want to be my friend? I mean, there were so many people to choose from. Why me? I'm not even worth it." "You looked so lonely. So sad, so hidden. You looked like you were so used to being silent. But I knew there was more to it than what meets the eye. I wanted to decode the mystery." He looked deep into her eyes. "So what do you want?" She held his gaze, even though she hated eye contact. He smiled softly and sang, "All I wanna be, all I ever wanna be, is somebody to you." ________________________________________________ Darkness and shadows were all she ever saw. She lived in silence, her whole world a monochromatic display that only she could see. Her red rimmed glasses only made clearer her strife and the elastic band on her left wrist reminded her of her long lived sorrow. She hid from the world, going unnoticed by everyone, slowly crumbling to dust on her own. That was all until one faithful day when someone did the unthinkable and decided that she was worth noticing. She was the girl in the grey hoodie. And he was someone who cared. Take your mind on a journey of two unique souls, sprinkle in a little friendship, a teaspoon of tears, a spoon of laughter and fun and maybe a pinch of violence and love with a hint of secrets. And while you wait for that delicious cake to bake, a good sing along won't hurt.

I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing but I'm totally winging it. (note: after writing the intro I've decided to make this story Inspired by a Dodie Clark song called she. I highly recommend listening to it as it will be the main theme of the story!! also it's a beautiful song with an amazing story!!) I've hardly seen any Chrissy x readers and it makes me sad as Chrissy is my favorite character! I simp for sure lol, anyways this is a femreader just a heads up! (TW: possible internalized homophobia, traumatic events, mention of eating disorders, homophobia, mentions of sex and sexualization (possible nsfw), mentions of religious trauma, depression (low self esteem), anxiety, swearing, homophobic slurs, mentions of suicide, mentions of murder, mentions of death) Intro: Chrissy Cunningham, the queen of Hawkins High, and cheerleader. We use to be friends in middle school, when my mom forced me to do cheer. She made me feel less weird, not like it matters, being a girl who likes girls makes me the schools, uh, scratch that, the TOWNS, outcast. Girls don't wanna be around me and guys try to "be the guy who fixes" me, if they don't sexualize the fact that I am gay. I love Chrissy, but she's the queen, and I'm just Y/N, the antichrist, the abomination, the outcast. Shes also straight and dating Jason, who she's too good for! she's sweet, and kind, and cares about those around her, while Jason is an asshole who bullies absolutely everyone who is different from the social norms. * * * she tastes like birthday cake, storytime, and fall........ but to her I taste of nothing at all.... -Dodie Clark * * *

She still looks the same, sounds the same and loves the same but is she the same, only time can tell. A toxic love story between two ex lovers. The earlier betrayal stabbed her in the heart, quite literally. Once you think it's over, she comes back, like she always does, always for one thing. Him. Once again, she attempts to save the day, but always bottles it, draining herself to protect her loves and not protect her, will this time be different? Will she finally put herself first? Read on to find out. PREQUEL/SEQUEL about my two books HATRED and AGAIN, please go read them before this one, if you don't, you won't understand this book. - One of the random girls spits over the silence, "You're not special y/n." I lean forward, "I'm sorry, who are you?!" - I turn around, immediately seeing her hands trying to touch his chest, I click my mouth, strolling my way towards her. "Touch him one more time and I'm dropping a log on your scruffy bitch face." I spoke with a smile on my face. - "Have you ever had love where everything feels like a puzzle. Where nothing matters to you. Where you can feel free to be at your lowest or highest with them. That's what it feels like between me and Gally, I feel complete." "Love can make you believe a lie." - (Gally x Reader Maze Runner Fanfic) || 3rd and last book of my trilogy || #1 distopian - 15/1/24
