George is running again.
George hates planes. She hates the bus. She hates her old pick up truck. She hates the sound her feet make when they touch concrete. But her hatred beats all when it comes to pages that are folded to be used as bookmarks. Certain pages are forever bended no matter how hard she tries to flatten them. Certain books that are held close to her chest as she climbs her fifth train, the only transportation she is able to bare. All books come to an end, the book cover met at the end proves that. George is not ready to let go of the words formed for her enjoyment, she's not ready to let go of the stories. She doesn't want to be saved by her knight in shining armor, but in her story she doesn't have a choice.
George Massot is seventeen years old and high on beginnings. The beginnings of books, the beginnings of movies, and the beginnings of the five lives she has created for herself.
Dylan Bates is high on his tenth cigarette.
''Everything has a ending'' he says the smoke from his cig diminished by his foot now covering it as he looked back up into a pair of two persistent brown eyes.
''It doesn't have to''

The squeezing around my throat started again and I could feel hot tears burning tracks down my face as I struggled to breathe. Benjamin's attacker laughed cruelly, softly, in his ear.

Unlike You
"You and I aren't so different you know," he points out, putting a cigarette between his lips and lighting it. "Yeah? How so?" I ask. "We both did something we regret, put in juvie for it, put in this dumb ass rehabilitation support group, and are on their way to hell," he starts. "But you know the greatest of them all?" "What?" "We got one way tickets, baby," he smiles, blowing his cigarette smoke in my face. ~*~ Copyright 2017 by imadivergentfangirl All rights reserved.

I didn't feel so alone. He squeezed my upper arms tightly, like he was reassuring me of a pain he thought I was feeling. Or maybe he was reassuring himself. I couldn't tell.

βHello, gorgeous,β he said staring at me with amusement in his eyes. He had finally stopped walking and he stood exactly one inch from me. I stepped back my eyes going wide. Who the hell was this guy? Why did he feel so comfortable standing next to me butt naked? And why didnβt he carry any extra clothes with him as all other wereβs did? God, he was so damn sexy. He stood at about six foot five, he had black hair that fell in waves around his shoulder, golden brown eyes, and a face that an angel would be jealous of and a body built with muscles. I wanted to look to see if he had a six pack but I knew that if I looked then I would see other things that I wasnβt ready to see from any guy.

Then Sable meets Parker Nova, a cigarette smoking hard ass who just happens to be the son of the most notorious Lawyer in Hines Trail and decides maybe its her turn to act out and show her family just how 'fine' she really is. But Parker has other plans for Sable. Plans that include finding who the real Sable Marks is and, despite his best efforts not to, discover a bit about himself in the process. Five months ago, Sable Marks never thought she'd find solace in the shape of a troubled boy with dark blue eyes, but five months can change a person. {Spiritual #8 / Teen Fiction #212} *Contains swearing, mild violence and talk of abuse.*Complete
Deal With It β
COMPLETED Living a life you didn't sign up for is hard, but doing so while feeling lost is harder. Dylan Amity is a musical prodigy. He could play a range of instruments, from the electric guitar to his violin. He lived, ate, and breathed music and was on track to becoming the orchestra's lead violinist. He was ready to become one of history's best composers. But he decided to place his dreams on hold for a while when he found out that his dad, the CEO of Amity Industry, was diagnosed with stage three lung cancer. His dad's death was expected, but the way he died wasn't. After the reading of the will, Dylan is faced with the harsh reality that you don't always get what you want. Following a short period of grief, Dylan is thrust into a world of business, responsibilities, and guardianship. He never wanted to be CEO, but now he has to because it's what his dad wanted. He also never expected to be Amber's, his thirteen-year-old sister's, legal guardian. Dylan has to put his dreams aside as he learns to navigate his new life without any experience of being a CEO or a guardian. Without a guide, Dylan is bound to feel lost, but maybe Rose could help. Maybe she could teach him how to deal with it. β’β’β’ Sneak Peek: "You know what, Amber? At least I'm fucking trying!" I gritted out, meeting her eyes that practically blazed with fury. "Yeah! Trying to act like papa. But guess what, Dylan, you never cared about me or what I did!" She screamed, taking steps back towards the stairs. "You never cared when I was a baby, you didn't care when I was a toddler, and guess what! You don't care now. You're only pretending to care to make yourself feel better. But you don't! No one fucking cares."Complete
My Soulmate- A Fireman Sam Elvis x Penny Story
This is my first fanfic, so it may or may not be bad. All I have to say is that it's going to be about Penny x Elvis, because their aren't many fanfictions about them out there, so I wanted to grow that part of the fandom, because I ship this ship SOOOOOOOOOO hard! btw the characters are going to be similar to their original personalities, so sam is going to be inventive, elvis is going to be the clumsy and shy sidekick, and steele is the stern one. They are also going to look how they originally looked, so sam will have a quiff and elvis shall have his long nose again and be tall!!! So this is what it's about: Five firefighters. All friends. Sam, the brave hero next door, Elvis the clumsy and forgetful sidekick, Penny, the fearless one, Ellie, the action girl, and Arnold, the nerd. Station Officer Steele is in charge, always with a stern glance. But there's something happening underneath all of this. With Sam, Arnold, and Joe inventing a mysterious and possibly dangerous invention, Norman Price about to turn ten years old, Steele and Boyce's rivalry growing, dark secrets are revealed. Elvis has always felt something for Penny. Whenever he sees her his heartrate increases. However, for the past 8 years he's kept this feeling hidden deep within his soul, thinking that she probably likes Sam or Ben or someone. However, the girl of his dreams may have also fallen for the clumsy firefighter... As Norman and Derek begin to claim finding a 'treasure,' Trevor Evans ends up in the hospital, Elvis begins to have strange dreams about keeping his feelings hidden. Perhaps, it's best to live life while you're young... (set about series 10-11) (Also there may be some Ellie x Arnold in there, but i'm probably going to make a separate fanfic about that)Complete
