"I am so sorry honey, I wish it didn't have to be this way. I would love it if we could be together as a family, but that wont... work out sweet heart." a tear trickled down her cheek. Jennet glanced at her husband "I've done this four times already it's your turn" she wispered through tears. John nodded and picked up the baby rapped in cloth and rang the bell. The door creaked open to show bright light and a woman dressed in a dark blue night gown with bags under her eyes. "Please take care of our child" he said to to her with sadness in his voice. "All right" she croked taking the child in her arms. After the door closed shut Jennet burst into tears and ran into johns arms. They cried together that night until it got too cold to bare. "We've got to go" the man said who was holding her with great care. The sad mom looked at the orphanage sign and wispered "I just gave away five of my most prized possessions... my kids"

Loving Merritt Forever
Part 1: Today was supposed to be my fairytale day. My perfect wedding day. I made my way to David, he took my hand in his, walking us closer to the long faced man who would be marrying us. The officiant started, greeting the room full of all my family, all of David's family. Going through the first reading easily. Giving their peace on the joy of marriages, it was bland, but acceptable. Moving along, the officiant announced in a loud voice, "If anyone here knows of any reason why these two should not be lawfully wed, let them speak now, or forever hold their peace." The officiant boomed over the crowd. I was caught off guard. This part was supposed to be just a formality, just a box to tick. No one was supposed to say anything. The world started to go in slow motion as Verity moved behind me a flicker in the corner of my vision. "David, I can't hide anymore." He said. As David's eyes went from me, to Verity, filled with concern. David looked over my head at Verity while he was holding my hands in his. I heard the crowd gasp, before everyone started to whisper. David dropped my hands. The whispers increased in intensity. Making the room sound like it was full of hissing snakes. David's attention wasn't anywhere near me. I looked up to see him looking over my head at my brother. With a look I had thought he had saved just for me, my heart breaking as my fairy tale became a nightmare.

She’s calling for it but will she ever get it? Can the broken be fixed when all hope is lost? (READ THIS FOR THEM, READ THIS FOR THE BROKEN) SNEEK PEEK ////////////////////////////////////////////// We find ourselves standing on the front door of the shackled house, the cop holding Richie and me. I shut my eyes as my ears listen for the door. Footsteps. His footsteps. They’re getting louder. No. Don’t. Please. Oh God, help me! Someone! Anyone! The door flings open. “Hello officer, what seems to be the—“ his eyes travel to us. An evil grin of victory then spreads on his face. “I’ve been looking for you.” He whispers as his eyes glare into mine; his pool of lust drowns me hinting me that soon my innocence and virginity will be gone. “Are you their father?” the cop asks sternly. My ears turn deaf hearing only one sound, an eerie sound of screeching emptiness. Their words float away and soon Richie and I step into the house, again. //////////////////////////////////////////////Complete

Military's Girl (editing)(1-7 edited)
I pushed away from the dinner table and stood up really fast, then bolted for the door. I couldn't just stay here and listen to him tell me he was leaving, I just couldn't deal with it. Tears start running down my face just as I reach the edge of the grass and sidewalk about to enter the street, but arms wrapped around my waist and I collapsed into them."Baby girl, I'm so sorry." He sounded as heartbroken as I am "I really am, I wanted to tell you first. Before I had to tell very one like that, I don't want you crying like this. It breaks my heart." "I still remember the time I lost you in the woods." "You had no idea how scared I was because I lost you. I thought I lost you for good, that I wouldn't be able to find you, ever." I leaned my head into his chest."Every time I called your name I got more scared that I wouldn't find you, but then I did. I found you. You were huddled up crying against a tree trunk, you didn't even know it was me till I called your name.'' "The way you looked at me after that, made me want to never see you cry again. So I promised myself I would do everything in my power to keep you from crying, and I did a good job. Until now, that is. Not only did I not keep you from crying, but I'm the reason." he says, his voice barely above a whisper. His eyes shining with tears. "You also promised never to leave me." I whisper as I'm finally able to talk, my lips quivering. "I know..." "You promised!" I shout, he holds me tighter. "I know... I know, and I'm sorry. I never meant to break that promise either." ~ Tyler and Dakota have been best friends since either can remember, even with a 2 year gap in their age.

The Last Contract
Update biweekly: Saturday @1pm ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Blythe I was always taught that responsibility must not be taken lightly. I have worked for the past few days, without coming back home. My head is throbbing. My body is craving sleep. I arrive at my apartment and notice it's unlocked. I dismiss it and head to the bedroom. I loosen my tie as I open the door. My bed is occupied. But with two people, instead of one. "Bell?" "John! What are you doing here?" "Zac?" "It's not what you think John. I can explain." Tori pleased "Explain what, Really?! That you been sleeping with him, while I'm killing myself at work?" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nicole Garza The day I fell in love was during the first winter on this same day. Except I didn't fall in love today, instead I am soaking wet at the nearest cafe waiting for a cab. "Nicole, I came as soon as I heard," my best friend arrives at the cafe still in formal clothes. "Did you know?" I ask calmly. "I- I" she stutters "Waited for me to be humiliated?" I grit my teeth. "No that's not it. I did know but-" " But never thought you should tell me?!" I raise my voice "Well, I am not the one that left!" She fights back "You knew why I left! How do you think I feel finding out the love of my life married someone else!" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMAGES: From Pinterest and Google
