This short story was written for a Flash Fiction challenge based on a set of clues found at the following link: https://mendingbrokenwings.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=page.
Summary:
The only time I had ever seen my father cry was September 23, 1955 - the day James Dean died. It was such a shock, if anyone appeared to be invincible it was certainly James Dean, but reality is he was human like the rest of us; his passing a surreal realization that death does not discriminate, the Grim Reaper comes for us all, but sometimes before he is supposed to.
Just so happens, James Dean died the same day my father received his draft card for Viet Nam. Before long James Dean’s death would be but a shadow in relation to the death and destruction my father would experience firsthand of many he loved.

Falling for a Hunter (Female Reader x Dean Winchester)
You grew up to be a hunter despite your fathers wishes for you. Your father, Bobby Singer, hated that you were in this line of work, and he always blamed himself for ridding you of a normal life. It's not like he didn't try to shield you from this life. For the majority of your childhood you weren't aloud to touch weapons or read up on anything supernatural - but his efforts went to waste whenever the Winchesters were over. Growing up an only child with just your father to keep you company could have been boring, but every once in a while one of your dad's old hunting buddies would drop his two sons off at your house. Those weeks and sometimes months when Sam and Dean Winchester lived with you were the best times of your life. The two brothers were your best friends. Dean was the first person to teach you how to shoot, hell he was the first on to teach you most things in this line of work. For a little while you saw them as your brothers, that is, until you and Dean had turned 16 years old. The two of you had celebrated your birthdays together when John (Dean and Sam's dad) dropped them off at your house for nearly six months. During that extended stay you had developed a sort of crush on Dean that you never saw coming. Unfortunately you never were able to explore the possibilities of that relationship as you rarely saw him after those short 6 months. Only every once in a while, then never again after your father had threatened John, cursing him to never show his face around the scrap yard again. He even cocked the shotgun and everything. This story follows along with season 2-6 of supernatural. You are a 26 year old female (the same age as Dean in season 1). I don't own any rights to Supernatural or any of the characters. This is just for entertainment purposes only. Please like and comment cause that seems to do something for algorithm idk. Hope you like reading it as much as I liked writing it!

A Captain and Her Ship
This story will never make since no matter how many times I try to read it. I’ve been thought so much pain, lies and confusion. I’m surprised I could even stand for myself. The pain I’m feeling affected everyone not just me, and it won’t stop. Until, I’m consumed in guilty. Why, does it taunt me. I don’t know. It was just a new chapter in my life. Until, those memories came back, when he meet him, again. If only I never existed, then you wouldn’t be feeling this pain, I have caused you to endure. I wish for everything to be like when we forgot but….. It can't.Concluida

He thought that she was head over heels inlove with him. However, instead of completely rejecting the proposal, she told him that they will enter a contract of agreement of staying married for only six months. Of course, no strings attached. Just to help him get his inheritance. But in those six months of being together, he slowly learned that there is more to Jewel than meets the eye. And he is starting to feel something that he shouldn't feel for a woman whom he tried to avoid all of his life. ********* "Why the hell are you extending the contract?! The deal is only six months Phoenix! Six months?!" Jewel screamed at the top of her lungs under the freezing heavy rain. "Because I don't us to be temporary! I wanted us to be permanent!

Behind every mean girl...there's a tragedy
The average human being spends every second of his day fighting against the force of nature to see another day. But I'm different. I'm not afraid of outside forces to take my life away - only myself.

As a way to release my frustration, I give hell to my body and everyone I come in contact with - especially my parents. No one knows about what happened except the ones who did it...and Him. But he didn't stay. Now, he's back and he's not talking either. I want to stop hurting, I need to stop. Make me stop.Concluida
