Second Week Of December
Is love in the stars? in the air? or, in the cards? Can we find ourselves during a long walk on the beach? a short walk on a pier? or, a quick bike ride into town? Would destiny call through the reeds? as a bellowing horn? or, as a barking dog? Do you believe in fate? destiny? or, the after-life? These are questions that thirty-one year old Janie wasn't even considering, she didn't need to. She was a good girl, she followed the rules. Her life had direction, she was on the right track, or so she thought, until last December when her comfortable little world unraveled. Comfortably married for a few years to her college sweetheart, steady job, great dog, nice apartment. While she and Tom's marriage wasn't a Hollywood romance, she was confident that eventually, in time, and with some effort, there would be a house and children. It's that time of year, the height of the holiday season, the second week of December to be exact. Too much seasonal hype Janie always thought, holiday decorations in full force, parties galore, so much good cheer. Last year, at Janie's company's annual holiday function, there was plenty of food, way too much alcohol and an overabundance of Joy -- everything changed after that party as her personal life became the popular topic at the office water-cooler. With the holiday season rapidly approaching, again, Janie finds herself surrounded by the usual merriment, but she is sad and alone. Her husband's infidelity has forced her to face re-inventing herself as her dream-life crumbled. Not only was she subjected to stares and whispers at work, but she was forced into a new space socially, and residentially. Most recently the death of her long-time canine companion, Maggie, has been the icing on her 'emotional' cake. Now she must rebuild her life, alone. With no plan, direction or hope she feels lost in the dark until a random stranger offers more than just 'a light.' Join her on a magical tale of love, loss and personal discovery.Complete
Christmas Wonder (RotG)
Christmas isn't the same for you as it was when you were a child. Not as magical, very anticlimactic. You long to get back the Christmas magic you had as a kid-the joy of childhood-and have been trying your best to. Unexpectedly, Santa (North) knocks on your door and offers to help you get your Christmas wonder back, as he does with chosen adults every year, by letting you help deliver Christmas this holiday season. You accept the offer. But as you get into Christmas preparation, you discover that delivering Christmas and getting your wonder back is going to be much harder than you thought. (This is a romance-free reader-insert.) *I also upload this story on Quotev, DeviantArt, and ArchiveofOurOwn under the same username. *This story has 14 chapters, and I will be uploading them all before Christmas.
