In their small town, everybody knew everybody.
"Did you see that girl over there?"
"That's Samantha."
"What about the boy with her?"
"That's Nate."
But not only did everyone know each other, but they judged one another, too.
"Look at that little white girl over there."
"She's building something in the mud."
"Why is there a black boy with her? Don't he know that white's and black's aren't supposed to play with one another?"
"Come to think of it, that looks like little Johnny with that white girl."
"Oh, his mama ain't gonna like it to know that Johnny was playing with a white girl."
And they would still judge each other.
"Say, is that Jenny playing with Johnny in the mud over there?"
"Stupid white girl! Doesn't she know that white's aren't supposed to mess with black's?"
Nate's skin was like chocolate, they said. Samantha's skin was like milk that came from a cow. The two weren't supposed to hang around one another. But they didn't listen.

The Bad Boy's Weakness
"You wanna say that again?" he hisses, his face inches from mine, his hands on either side of my head. I can't help but notice how blue his eyes are, and how they have specks of green in them and-focus, Ali! "Yes. I think you're an arrogant asshole. I think you're a player. I think everyone here is a fool for thinking you're hot, and I think you better get the fuck away from me before I hit you in your special place." He smirks and backs up, crosses his arms. His biceps flex, and I refuse to look. "You're going to feel terrible for saying that to me one day." he walks away. "I'll never feel terrible for saying the truth." I snap. I pick my bag up from the floor. "Bastard." Ali James is your everyday nerd. She's a straight A student. She has a 4.0 GPA. Drake Parker is your everyday bad boy. He drives a motorcycle.

FORGET ME NOT
Genevieve Anderson, the girl that had been left behind and forgotten. In a town where everybody knows everybody, meaning that no one goes unnoticed. Nobody just grabs a bag and leaves in the middle of the night, without someone seeing something. Nobody changes identity over night, and is suddenly left with the care of their father in her hands. Forgotten over night, Genevieve changes the person that everyone thought they knew. Gone was the girl that would smile and wave to everyone, was replaced by a girl that had a need for stealing and getting by every day. She had been left with the responsibility of an old ranch that was no longer in operation and the care of her father, who had been to war, and was suffering from additions like there was no tomorrow. Gone was the girl that depended on her big brothers to open the gate, replaced with a girl that worked long hours at the ranch, before she was sneaking out after midnight, to drive whatever cars her brothers had left behind. Except, one day, something happens and everything takes a turn for the worse. "I left you here, for 20 minuets, and you have already let him relapse?! I trusted you, for a second, and you backstabbed me?! I can't believe any of you anymore, because you are made of lies!" Holding on by a string, Genevieve isn't sure how much more she can take, especially when people appear from the past she thought she left behind, when she was 5 years old. Time moves on for a reason, doesn't it? "I told you to forget about it. It's in the past, and nobody has ever asked me to do what you are asking me to do. You are asking me to put away my boots and hat, and stand in front of people in heels and a puffy dress. That's not who I am, if you had stuck around to find out who I really am.

Little Sweet Dreamer
"Oh," he said, as my back hit the wooden wall. Damn it, of course. With nowhere to go, his arms locked me in between him and the wall. He stared down at me as he said, "So you're trying to piss me off?" His lips were surprisingly close to mine. No guy would ever be this close to me in real life, let alone me being able to handle it; I would've been so timid and afraid. But this was the dream world. I could speak and be as brave as I wanted to. "Yeah, I am," I said. "What are you gonna do about it?" He paused as his eyes looked between the two of mine. Then, he smirked and swiftly closed the gap between our lips. ~~ In a small town in New York, Hazel is your average quiet type. In a school full of clichés, she falls perfectly under the category of "nerd" and has her own little nerdy group of people she loves to hang around. They respect the fact that she's non-verbal. The thing that plagued her, surprisingly, is not her inability and refusal to speak, but her ability to go through anybody and everybody's dreams. This is not something she can control, nor something that's necessarily dangerous. It just happens. One second she's in darkness, the next second she happens to be in someone's dream. But, when she stumbles into a dream of a guy she never knew existed in her grade of 500 students, albeit his popular status, both her worlds get flipped upside down.Complete
