Selective mutism. Traumatic mutism. Mutism.
Three words Bailey had heard way too many times in her life.
Fake. Phoney. Attention-seeker. Stupid. Retard.
Just a few more words that’d graced her ears so much more than anyone else’s.
Only being able to talk to a select range of people can seriously suck, especially when you can’t choose who those people are.
How could you fall in love? How could you get a job? How could you teach your kids to read? How could you handle the constant whispers and glances?
Life really isn’t perfect, but that doesn’t mean we can’t make the most of it. Bailey has lost so much in her life, but she isn’t giving up any time soon.

Please, try not to hate her. She's just a girl, after all. She's still figuring things out and doesn't understand what love truly means. She's never learned how to love or be loved. It's not entirely her fault. Others should have tried harder to understand her instead of blaming her. They left her feeling abandoned and labeled her as a monster. She's lost in a whirlwind of emotions she can't comprehend. So please, don't condemn her. ________________ Entry for the 8 Chapter Challenge and I have succeeded in it!!

The Unnoticed, Noticed
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.

Held On Mute [Michael Myers FF]
C O M P L E T E D ✔ (EDITING ABANDONED) [Michael Myers x Mute!(Fem) Reader (Dead by Daylight FF)] You never understood why you were brought into the Entity's realm. You're lack of speech wasn't helpful when it came to much. As your teammates wouldn't know what you would want to say or do, but you could make a sound close to a scream. So at least they know when you're hurt... You were a special case- mute yes- but you always had strange thoughts and reactions to things compared to others. For one, you were always attracted to others eyes, always wanting to know what they held. In the realm of the Entity you found yourself attracting the attention of a killer, a killer who was set on sacrifice and described as both merciless and ruthless. A killer that used to be your old friend. One with dark eyes you haven't forgotten after so many years. _____________ After the "My Child" book I wanted to write a Michael x Reader one... well here it is.

"Why do you always avoid my questions?" "I'm not, it's just that there's nothing to say. Who would ever want to date someone they can't even talk to? It's not rocket science. My eyes are weird, and people get tired of me eventually. There's your one-page essay. Now please don't snow me to death .-." "What? All that you just said is a lie. And I should snow you to death for even saying that! I would definitely date you."
