We both pulled away at the same time, smiling. We continued dancing in silence until the slow song ended and he led me out a side door to get some fresh air. I looked out at the decorations and smiled. "They really have outdone themselves this year," I said. "Yeah..." He then turned towards me. "I am having a great time tonight, and I'm hoping I can get to know you better." I laughed lightly. "You don't even know who I am. I don't know who you are" He shrugged and took off his mask, smiling. "Now you do." My eyes widened when I saw who it was. Then I realized he was reaching for me. Not me...my mask! Oh god. At the moment the DJ announced the next song and the time. My head whipped towards the giant clock inside. "Oh no, I'm late! I have to go!" I ran off before he could stop me.

Cliché, Touché and Douche
{Completed - #12 highest} I was walking on a path all alone at midnight. I was just wondering around, until I saw a guy in a hoodie. He was beating the pulp out of another guy and one more man was on the ground, he was not moving. I gasped. 'Is he dead?' Or he can be unconscious, yeah 'el' he is just unconscious not dead. Duh! Who would kill a guy? As I was proceeding with my thoughts, that hoodie guy turned his face towards me. My heart had a mini heart attack. I turned my heels to the opposite direction and started to run. 'Run Ella, run for your life' was what my mind was screaming to me. I took turns without thinking, that guy was now following me and guess what? I took a wrong turn and which ended up being a dead end ' You are so dead' I thought. So, I started to think what I said last time to the people I love. 'Good night mom, love you.' to my mom, 'Stop annoying me! I'm going to bed.' to dad which also mean I love you, 'See you later Lu, love you!' to Luana. Okay my good bye says I love them all. Now I can die in peace. Granddad I'll meet you soon in the heaven, if you are there. I was still in my deep thoughts until I saw his silhouette. As, he get closer, my heart begin to race faster. I closed my eyes, until I heard him say "Ella?" O to the M to the G, this person actually knows me. I opened my one eye and saw him due to the small light hanging in that ally "Errrrr'ick!" I squeaked and mentally face palmed myself. Even at this state I'm calling him Errr'ick. "I'm sorry your highness, what can I do for you?" I squeaked again while trembling. The next second I heard his fits of laughter. He was rolling on the floor, actually rofling. I was glaring at him but I realised that I'm not in a position to glare. So, I made puppy dog face for him to spare my little life. He stopped but after seeing my face, he started to laugh again. He tried to say between his guffaws "You..... your face .....was epiccc!" He started to gasp for air and had tears in his eyes.Complete

He said, gesturing to himself. Something about his presence scared me, but excited me at the same time. And I felt my heart rate speed up under his stare.

You Break Me \\ Sequel to, Too Cold Outside For Angels To Fly
I proudly stood, watching him, my everything, perform for millions of his admirers. The piercing screams making his smile broaden as he danced around with the rest of the boys on stage. Harry took a glance at me in the front row and winked before bending over and taking my hand causing everyone to scream louder. He chuckled before letting go of my hand. All the girls around me cheered and smiled at me. I had gotten used to the attention of being Harry Styles' girlfriend. The bumpy road it took me on was now steady and I was happy. Harry has helped me through possibly every difficult part in my life making me glad I met him. The lights went down as the boys bowed after they finished their song. "How is everyone?!" Harry called, putting his hand by his ear trying to make everyone answer. As always they screamed in response causing Harry and the other lads to smile proudly. "This one is for my beautiful girlfriend... Kat, there in the front row" Harry pointed at me causing "Awe's" to fill the room. A few girls commented saying "You're so lucky" or "I love you" making my heart swell. I'm still not used to the attention I get now. Something to my left caught my eye. I turned my head in that direction to see something that made my heart stop. The familiar stranger held a gun in hand, pointing it directly on stage. The girls around him screamed in fear though it blended with the excited ones. I moved my gaze to where the gun was pointed, Harry. No! I leaned close to the stage and waved my hands at Harry. I heard the rifle click signaling it was ready to fire. With all my strength I screamed for Harry. Harry, being the stubborn person he is, ignored me making me worry. The gun was aimed, I watched his finger touch the trigger. "HARRY, WATCH OUT!" I screamed at the top of my lungs as the gun went off and all the excited screams turned into scared and worried ones as my boyfriend collapsed on stage from the blow.Complete

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
Ms. Heartbreaker Meets Mr. Player
I enter at the club and see people, bouncing their heads, jumping. There’s also a band playing a rock song, but I barely understand it since the vocalist is shouting the lyrics. Plus, the crowd is thick and they’re all noisy. This is a club, after all. I head to the long table and sit my butt on the chair. I order some water with ice. I look at my left side and see him. Azariah. The one who called me his babe. And he’s with another girl. Azariah kisses the girl’s jaw, and the girl giggles. She puts his mouth on his and I can see the tongue. Oh. Why are they need to do that? I mean, it’s pretty disgusting. Putting your tongue inside his or her mouth. It’s yucky. Definitely yucky. Azariah breaks the kiss first and the girl giggles again. The waiter serves my order and goes away. I shove the cup gently and walk towards them. Revenge. OHHHHHH. This better be good. “Hi, baby.” I say at Azariah and he looks up at me. “WHO THE HELL IS THIS GIRL?” “Excuse me? Your baby?” The girls says warily. “You heard me. I’m his girlfriend.” I say. “No. I’m his girlfriend.” The girl complains and looks at Azariah. Azariah gives her a shrug and the girl quickly stands up and says, “How dare you?!” She slaps Azariah.Complete
Sonder: Spirit of the Sun
That night, we sat down next to each other. A inch apart not looking at one another but into the fireplace. In the back of the room near one of the corners stood a bucket collecting water from the ceiling. By the inside being warm, the snow coming in didn't stand a chance. The droplets fell down in a way that it made him hum something to himself and stands up holding out his hand to me. I look up at him with confusion. "Afraid now princess? I just want to dance" he proclaims. Once I accepted his skin brush against mine leaving a trail of his touch and his hand finds my waist sliding up almost under my arm. "Follow my lead. Move your feet like this while allowing your hips to guide the dance. Get closer" he directs showing me as I slowly follow. I step out finding his foot instead of the floor trying again to do it right but failed. He laughs shaking his head then a grinning smile appears on his lips. I stop searching for his eyes as my expression kept its clueless yet shock expression. "What?..." I ask with my lips slightly raise as a sign of being puzzled. "You are really bad this. You not even using those big hips you posses and the fact you are now having two left feet" he explains looking at me. "Fine, I didn't even want to" I let go of his hand but he stops me "Come on, I'll teach you the rookie version" and with that he pulls me closer to help me feel the rhythm.Complete
