The waves sloshed onto shore, the grainy sand being swallowed by the clear blue water. Fishing boats knocked and rattled the paint peeling dock as the storm shook the earth. I, of course, wasn't affected by the weather, I found it relaxing and spiritual. My toes wiggled and dug into the cold sand as I walked on, the stormy wind nipped at my blonde hair having it curl against my face and neck. I enjoyed this weather.
The ocean rose, the waves splashing further up on shore. The water caressed my feet but that didn't last long as the storm spit out massive waves destructing homes along the shoreline. My eyes widened as the water pulled me in, restraining my body in an embrace. This I did not enjoy. Panic settled into my core as I fought against the current, the water whipping at my naked legs and my sandals now lost along with shipwrecks.
As I watch a wave pick up momentum I exhale deeply then inhale, close my eyes and dive. This is it.

I hate that I love you
"What do you want?" I snap, slamming my locker shut. His casual smirk, messy dark hair, tan skin, strong arms, eerie storm-grey eyes... the list could go on of things I notice- that I shouldn't notice- about him. "Oh, I want a lot of things." He inspects a speck of dirt on his arm. "I'm sure you've heard the news?" His eyes flicker back up to meet mine. Does he know? No. He can't. So I roll my eyes. He can't know that I know, that I would do anything to be the first one he tells. "You'll have to be more specific." I mutter, trying to look casual as I inspect my nails. "Well, it involves a certain title of the swim team," He offers. I shrug. "So you got captain. That's cool. And what do I have to do with that?" He narrows his eyes, trying to read my expression. Unfortunately for him, I have mastered the art of hiding my emotions. "This is what I wanted to talk to you about. During English," He fiddles with his sweater sleeve. "I recall you trying to talk to me," I frown. "Well, I..." He swallows, seeming... nervous? "I'm not doing too great... subject wise. And if I don't pick up my ass soon, I might be forced to quit." He rubbed the back of his neck, making his shirtsleeve slide up his arm to reveal a strong bicep. Not that I notice. I narrow my eyes. "And what do I get back in return?" I cross my arms. I'm going to be late for the bus if we don't hurry. He studies my face. "Name your price." He mirrored my position. I sigh. Money... but I don't need it. Popularity... but I don't want it. I meet his gaze steadily. He lifts his chin, the tiniest bit, but it doesn't intimidate me. I square my shoulders and stand up straight. He's only just taller than me.

Waves
The water feels ice cold, freezing every bone and cell in my body. I know that there's something I should remember right now, but I just can't find it in me to care. I take in a deep breath and smell the salt on the air. I feel the wind rush through my hair, and I can hear the waves crashing onto the beach. I soak it all in, and surprisingly nothing disturbs me. I look up and stare at the dark clouds hovering over the ocean, and I can faintly hear a commotion behind me. I ignore it though, I don't want to ruin this peace I've found. **************************************************************************************************************************************** How much will Lilly have to sacrifice to protect her family? How much pain will she have to go through before it's all over? How much?Abgeschlossene Geschichte

SOLD TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER
ABOUT THE STORY "Where am I? I woke up slowly, feeling groggy and drowsy and really out of place. Then it hit me. Everything came rushing back to me like it happened a minute ago. Suddenly I felt my skin shaking while all the hair on my body stood still like pointed needles. My heart can't stop racing. Looking around I could see nothing but pitch black. I keep looking for any evidence of light escaping through cracks or doors or even a window but found none. The darkness is all around me. A sudden pang struck my heart.

Shoreside
This is a story about life, finding oneself in unfamiliar territory, losing those we love, staying together with those we love, growing up, hardship, and above all else, finding a way through. Stay strong, dear reader, there may be rough water ahead. **** It is important to note that there is disturbing content in this story. I am not a woman, and I do not presume to know all the hardships a woman may face. I do not intend this story to take away from real stories, nor do I intend to make myself seem somehow righteous in telling of the hardships of others, even in a fictional sense. I only wish to acknowledge the cruelty in this world, and the reality of the suffering of those who suffer, who are hurt, who are victims.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
Captured By A Demon
I finally escaped the factory, they kidnapped me from my college. Today is my birthday, and I had planned for it but nothing helped, only calming me down for the moment. A scream echoed out in the silent starry sky, my body freezing... They were looking for me, I just knew it. Again, I ran and jumping over the fence to the property, muscles burning, my breathing short. I look behind me, not seeing the light of the school anymore. I slow down, holding my breath again. Looking around, only trees and bugs surround me. I slowly sank to my knees, gripping the grass in between my fingers, to keep my breathing calm. Tears springing to my eyes and brushing the tears away, slowly getting back to normal. Suddenly, I felt someone behind me. I could feel its strength and power surround me, turning around to see a dark figure behind me. Glowing blue eyes stared at me, seeing it slowly walk toward me. My breathing becoming short again, a panic attack was on the verge. A hand was now on my shoulder and another on my cold cheek, making me look into his eyes, "Let me help you..." He whispered. Rubbing his thumb against my cheek, I slowly nod my head, when a pain began to form in my chest. I knew it was coming. I quickly get away, crawling a couple feet away. "Get away!" I yelled. My skin turning white and the pain erupting inside of me, feeling it try to escape, and I know if I let it. It will hurt this man. Suddenly, he was there in my view. Blue eyes staring at me, and then his lips were on my own. Gasping as I felt the pain beginning to disappear from inside me. Eyes drooping and my body relaxing against his. Soon, the kiss ended and I was empty. My eyes closing. "Don't worry, I will keep you safe..."Abgeschlossene Geschichte
