Everything connects. Finally I feel someplace I belong. It's not just a sanctuary, but it's a home. Not just for me, but the other 200 people who live here. We escaped the government and we are never going back!
Except they make it difficult when they are constantly down our backs chasing after us. Our leader told us they are after certain people, people with a symbol tattooed on them. The government agreed to stop running after us if we agreed to hand them over. I didn't think much of it until a couple of days ago when I was in the shower rooms and I had my hair up I noticed a faint drawing behind my right ear.
I took a closer look and saw it was a flower. I didn't understand what it meant at that moment. But I've figured it out now.
I have the symbol.

#girlboss [COMPLETED]
"I love the view of the city from such a height at this late night." I said finally breaking the silence. "Me too." he said lost in his thoughts. "How will it be to fall from such a great height?" he asked me. Do I smell hate? Is he a psychic person? I looked at him horrified. He finally smirked at me. "Chill. I was just kidding. Or else it was pretty silent." he said and smiled. "Well it wasn't funny." I said twisting my mouth and started giggling. "Thanks for bringing me here." I said and did something which I would regret later.Complete

She was taking more and more of his time, leaving me alone more and more. I had warned him.

The Bad Jokes #2: The Blonde
My cousin always referred to us as the bad jokes, as in...a blonde, a brunette and a redhead walk into a bar. I'm the blonde, and this is my story. When I was 18, a psychic told me to watch for the man with two hearts. That didn't make much sense, so I lived my life, not thinking about her fortune for my life. Then I met Wyatt and we fell in love. Until his ex-fiancee came back to him, and he chose her. Her heart. My heart. Two hearts. He's back, trying to explain things to me, trying to win me back and in the meantime, I'm also dealing with a stalker. But Wyatt's helping with that problem. Unfortunately, he's causing another problem: he's not taking no for an answer.Complete
In due time (Completed)
"You were worried about me, Specs?" He smirked. "No, Tyler. I hoped that someone cut up your corpse and fed it to paranas. Obviously I was, you idiot! I'm a doctor. Worrying about people is kind of programmed into my system. It's a curse if you ask me," I surprised myself a lot more than I thought was possible with my answer. And what did he do? Laugh! He fucking laughed! Not full on rolling- on- the- floor laughter but a laugh nonetheless. "This isn't funny, Tyler." "It kind of is. Almost a month ago, I would've sworn that you hated me. Be careful, Specs," he squinted down at me, "or you might actually sound as if you like me." I rolled my eyes. "Don't flatter yourself. I was concerned. Don't confuse that with affection. It's two very, very different things." *** When you think that all is not lost in the world. That not all men are pricks and that not all sushi is bad. When you think that there is a light, no matter how dim, at the end of the tunnel. When you think that life isn't the ruthless bitch you've always thought it was... It turns around and bites you in the ass. When you think that the past will always and forever remain where it should be... It comes at you from every direction. Like a violent tsunami destroying everything...and everyone in it's path. Can you change what happened? I wish. Can you stop what's going to happen? God! I really hope so.Complete

The Girls with the Flame Tattoos
In this society, everyone has a soulmate. And the way to find yours is just look. Along with a soulmate, everyone has a small tattoo on their cheek with a symbol. Some could be a star, a flower, a yinyang, a fish, or even waves. There are so many people that the symbols are almost limitless. The tattoos don't care about gender or number. There could be gay matches, and there could even be polyamorous matches. The tattoos will tingle when you are near to your sm. And they will glow if you have found only one of your sm's if your match was poly. The trick is, you don't get the tattoo until you are 16. And even if you are near your match, as long as one of you are not of age, your tattoo will not tingle. Also, they are normal tattoos (except you don't get it or choose it, it just appears) so you can get rid of it. But if you do, your sm won't die but they will get very sick. The main characters of this story, Violet West (18) and Harper Black (20), both have a flame tattoo on their cheek. They live in the same state but for 4 years Harper paniced because she couldn't find her match. She wasn't sure if it was because her sm wasn't of age yet or if her sm lived far away. For 2 years Violet also paniced but she knew that some people don't find their sm for 5-10 years after they come of age, so she wasn't as scared as Harper. One day though, they feel their tattoos start to tingle. ____________________________________ *Will they be happy with who their soulmate turns out to be? *Will they recognize each other? *Will they be happy? *Will they break apart? -Read to find out. :) ____________________________________ This book is rated mature because there is a lot of talk of depression and self harm.

Ok before you read let me tell you.. I have no fucking clue why i wrote it.. Also as a side note this is random, like it just... Ugh.. I'm currently rewriting and the rewrite will have a COMPLETELY different ending.. Cuz this one just.. Ends so bad.. It makes me cry just on how it ends. Read at you own risk!!!! _______________ I let my eyes scan over his god like body, which I'm guessing he had a tag that said 'Made in heaven' cause that's where he came from. I couldn't stop my mouth from talking and saying bullshit, I didn't want to say but I kinda had no control over my mouth. "Did it hurt?"I say, without thinking. "What?" he says, with a little bit of laughter. "When you fell from heaven" I say still looking at his body. He burst out laughing, his laugh was wonderful it was like music to my ears.Complete
