A Taste of Sweet Ecstasy
(NEEDS TO BE BULLDOZED AND EDITED THE HELL OUT) In other words, read at your own risk because I was 16 and wrote this with my eyes closed obviously. Adrianna Winters is playful, carefree, and sarcastic. She likes to live on edge and have so much fun that she wakes up looking like a drugged up hooker with a killer hangover in the morning and she swears she'll never drink again but she's back on the booze hours later. "Officer," I purred, "I swear to drunk I'm not god..." Archie snorted beside me and I turned to glare at him. Jesus, how drunk am I? Did I just purr at an officer that looks like a chocolate version of Homer Simpson? Okay calm down Adrian. Think, think, think! God if you're listening to me right now I'm sorry for stealing Britney Taylor's chocolate bar in third grade and I'm sorry for telling stinky Meli that no matter how many sample perfume magazines she rubbed on herself, she will still stink like donkey shit. Oh and I'm sorry for having sex with Conner Rossi in the locker room instead of being in Biology, wait I only half regret that because the way he used his...had me...Okay Adrian so not the time. Alright - God, well I'm sorry for being a douche bag but if you're still listening could you please poof Officer Crowley away? Getting arrested with my best friend's devilishly good looking arrogant brother who also happens to be my child hood friend was not how I imagined this night to go.

His Greatest Sanctity
"Breathe." He dipped his head down so that his lips were right at my ear, his strong arm wrapped securely around my waist, molding my body into his. "If you're going to fall apart,." He starts, teeth gritted. "Now's the time. I'll be here to put you back together when it's over." I squeezed my eyes shut again, and I did just that. I fell apart. ******* Secrets. Lies. Deception. Murder. I'd seen and done it all. And not willingly. So I left. I sacrificed my freedom to save myself, and the only way to ensure my own safety was to start over. Clean slate. New people. New me. But the last thing I expected when I arrived at Manonwell Prep Academy was to be bombarded by a boy-no, a man who held some unknown vendetta against me. Call it obsession, infatuation, hatred. To me it was all one in the same. He was everywhere I turned, like a shadow. Watching me. Taunting me. Haunting me. And it was all because of something I did to him a long time ago. It was something so bad that he couldn't stand me, that he wanted me dead, and the idea of making my life a living hell was something that he took pride in. But I didn't remember. I had no clue what I could've done to him in the past, but he was hellbent on pushing me until I did. My plans on starting over were shattered the minute I stepped inside that school. He was the type of person that demanded your attention without having to speak. He was untamed and wild and unhinged. But what he didn't know was that the Winter Travers that he knew in past, the one I didn't remember, was no longer alive. I was different. She was gone and I was here. And he was everything I should've been afraid of. Sinister, quiet, manipulative, but I knew it would be a cold day in hell before I let him win. Ronan was like gasoline waiting to be doused on the fire that inside me, and if he was ready to burn, then so was I.Complete
