When I was young, I always thought falling in love was like how it is in fairy tales. You know, the princess is saved by the handsome prince, they kiss, and it's happily ever after. Or how about in movies and books? The good girl falls for the bad boy, he changes his ways for her and again it's happily ever after.
Boy, how wrong was I to believe that junk.

Just your basic 'He's the bad boy and she's the girl next door', type of story. Okay, Maybe not. It's more like 'He's a crazy, violent, anger prone lunatic and she's the girl next ward', but hey, they're pretty much the same thing, right? Wrong. -------------------------------- He leans in closer so I can feel his warm breath fanning across my face. "Why?" I ask softly. Staring into his eyes, urging him, begging him to spill all his deepest, darkest secrets. He gives me a half smile. "Because, you fascinate me." He says shortly. I'm lost for words, he's so close now I can almost taste the scent of his spearmint breath. I gulp. Slowly he raises a hand and cups the side of my face gently. "You, wear insanity like an accessory, you make it lust worthy and desirable. That's why." -------------------------------Complete

The Tragic Tale of Cinderella
All fairy tales are supposed to end happily ever after, no? What if they were just lies? The truths behind those tales could be as black as the night for all you know. Maybe you think I'm just a skeptic, a hardened old man who just doesn't see the magic anymore. Well, you'd be right on both accounts. Don't let me dampen your love of stories and how the world works. But for those of you who seek the truth and want to know more, I invite you to listen to my tale. For I was there when that awful woman Lady Tremaine took control of my former lord's manor. I saw the depths of evil that lived inside her. And most importantly, I saw the girl you call Cinderella change from beloved daughter to fierce warrior. Before there was princes and love, there was heartbreak and war. My name's John and I was just a stable boy, but I was there and was able to chronicle The Tragic Tale of Cinderella.Complete
When the Sun Sets
I meet him at the right time. Or a completely wrong one, depending on the perspective you look from. I am not the one to fall head over heels in love with someone and he is not the guy someone should even fall in love with. But there are all the witty comebacks, the unplanned meetings at the bar, the rides on his motorcycle, all the laughs we share before the morning ... It does something to both of us. It changes us to the extent where we suddenly can't live without all of this. He is not a good guy. He's as bad as it gets. But he's perfect for me. I want to believe our story is a modern fairy tale with a more realistic ending. You won't get the princess-prince bullshit from me. You'll get it how it is with no sugar-coating. I was no princess and he was no prince, yet we still had something beautiful going on. For a while, at least.Complete
The Third Wedding
This is my story, essentially these are real events I've lived through and I'm processing it by writing it down as a fairytale. It's probably fine. THIS IS DEDICATED TO MY FRIENDS: You are the ONLY ones who got me through all of these struggles! Thank you for saving me everyday. To me, you are the magic, thank you!Complete
NEVER FORGET YOU
(Rewriting) She loved him quietly. He loved her without courage. One truth changed the course of their lives. Kavya Thakur never believed in fairytales, not until the quiet boy in her class finally confessed what he had been carrying for years. For a brief, fragile moment, life felt simple. Almost kind. Then an accident shattered everything. Grief arrived in waves, taking away the people she loved, one by one. Just when Kavya believed she had learned how to survive loss, someone new entered her life and brought with them a betrayal she never saw coming. A betrayal that hurt deeper than love ever could. It changed her. Hardened her. Taught her how to guard her heart instead of offering it freely. Five years later, fate brings her face to face with her first love again. But Kavya is no longer the girl he remembers. She is guarded, bruised by the past, and certain that some things cannot be rebuilt. He refuses to believe that. As buried secrets resurface and old wounds reopen, they must confront the question they never truly answered the first time. Can love survive betrayal, silence, and the weight of everything left unsaid? Or were they always meant to become a memory rather than a future?Complete
broken Love By Zero
The hardest thing to do is get over a love that breaks you so deeply but was so true that you don't think it could be another lie but it is. You cry and cry but stare at the wall when you feel yourself physically falling apart, you don't tell anyone, you say your fine when really you just want to die. You read the fairy tales, see the disney movies and think that's going to be your life one day, then you get there and realize it was all one big lie, but when you are in love with someone you become a puppy dog and let them back hoping they changed.Complete
Deception
I'll admit the last few years I've been through the wringer - and the blows just won't stop coming. First there is all the family drama, and then there's a war (or, perhaps the war is the biggest issue at the moment?). Irregardless, I've finally decided what I wish to do with my life. I'm going to kill my father. Even if it's the last thing I do. And no matter if there's a pretty solider on the opposite side of the war trying to get in my way (or more accurately - my pants). Falling in love is certainly not a part of the plan.Complete

As much as I love OG, Through the Flames is going to give you so much more, skill and plot wise.**** I held down the button, a click came on. I hesitated. "Hello?" I called, holding my breath. I nearly peed myself again when a voice casually replied back a second later. "Good morning, you sleep well?" Momentarily taken aback, I hesitated. "Um...I - I guess. Where am I?" "Does it bother you?" "Yes! I bet you would too if you were kidnapped!" I waited frustratedly for a reply. Finally, the man spoke again, voice cracking with static. "Actually, we saved you and brought you here. So technically speaking, we didn't kidnap you." I scoffed at the nerve of this disembodied voice. "Take me home!" "Er...no." The machine clicked off, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get it back on. As soon as I get out of this room...I swear someone's ballsack is going to be shoved down their throat... ~*~ For my final year of this hell of a high school I expected it to be just like all the rest.

The Bad Boy Stole My Motorcycle
"Stop being so loud princess its 6 in the morning," he got up and put on his pants "Starring now our we princess?" he said cockily "Whats there to see?" I said sarcastically looking away. He walked up to me and moved my head to face him "Do I need to remind you about last night, princess?" I moved away from his hand and back up "No, I'm leaving" "Oh so soon," he said clearly trying to annoy me "Yes, I shouldn't have stayed, to begin with, and if you ever tell anyone about this I'll have your head." "Oo looks like I was wrong about you, you're, not a princess you're a queen, of hearts," he said smirking as I slammed the door and ran down the stairs and out the door and called Melissa as I started walking home.
