White Crayon
"If you ever feel down, or you feel like your worthless, just remember the white crayon. No one can use one. No one needs one." One second children are laughing and the next someone got hurt. It could be someone else's fault, or purely coincidental. Everyone deals with guilt differently. Some play the victim, using it to play the main character in a story that was never written for them. Some surround themselves with things and people that can turn their mind off for awhile. Others might feel guilty when they weren't even there. They feel like they need to go through something similar or worse to validate their suffering. Others grin and bear it, maybe because they don't have time, or they don't want the time. The day everything came barreling down, Rune Winston was a White Crayon.Complete

"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

I've seen you (JadenxReaderxJosh)
Jaden's been supportive, just as much as Josh has been. Josh Richards, their roommate and Jaden's best friend. She doesn't know what she would do without both of them. And maybe that's the problem. She wouldn't trade her life for anything in the world, wouldn't trade the chaos, the pain or the struggle. There's a lot she wouldn't trade, a lot of things she wouldn't erase like the feeling of Jaden's skin under her fingers and... And the feeling of Josh's lips against hers. Yeah, maybe that's the problem. Disclaimer: The ages might not fit with Jaden's and Josh's right now following the timeline of the story. I'm sorry. These chapters are snippets of Jaden, Josh and her life, they're in chronical order but each of them can be read on its own. (So, you can read chapter 5, then 2, then 1 etc.) But you should still read chapter 1 before any of the others since it explains how the relationship came to life. Some of them are really long while others are quite short. I wasn't sure if I wanted to post it, so don't be afraid to tell me if you like it and want me to post some of the other chapters. Also, sorry for the mistakes, english is not my first language. Enjoy!Complete
