What would you do if you had the gift to make anyone fall in love with you? Some gift. More like curse. One would think that it would be the greatest gift you could get. Quite frankly, it’s like cheating on a test and getting an A. Unless you have no conscience, it’s virtually impossible to shake that feeling of false accomplishment. Though you can control whether or not you cheat on a test; it’s a bad choice that can you make. I, on the other hand, can’t control the fact that I can make anyone fall at my feet. I have tried very hard to harness it, and though I can hold it back sometimes, it’s still there. A constant reminder of how I’ll never experience true love. At least, the real way. A humerous twist on a sad, yet not exactly permanant, fate. Join Aurora and her friends Danny: Gay and immune to her charms, and Ivy: Understanding and spontaneous, as Aurora tries to find a guy that likes her for her, and not her curse.Complete
