"Will this be all Ms..." She squinted at my sweatshirt. I knew what was coming, my last name. I've been through this a million times. As did everyone with Juilliard sweatshirts with their last names on it. "Bowie?" 

          My eyes widened. That's not my last name. I looked down at the sweatshirt that I had thought was mine for the last hour. "Um... Yes thank you. You can call me Ilse. I'll probably be back a lot more." I smiled. But my last name isn't Bowie, I must have grabbed the wrong sweatshirt.

Something Borrowed by FearlessAl17

Caught up in the sins and glamour of high society life, Astoria became the girl no one could trust. In order to return to grace, she must do the unthinkable: find a husband before the end of the year... before her mother chooses for her. With only 3 months remaining in the year, she decided to return to the limelight and reengages of high society life. But with everything she needed to build a future, only one question rings in her mind as she faces her fate: was it worth the price? __ The lighting was dull, but I could still see the shadows of his strong jawline, and the broad, muscular build he hid under his suit jacket. I wished I could see more of him-I wished I could see his face. I was intrigued by him, by the man who couldn't seem to look away. I blinked a few times before turning my cheek, suddenly conscious of the way his hidden eyes bore into me; I could almost feel the intensity of his gaze burning holes into my skull. Maybe he knew who I was; maybe he was one of the people I had crossed, they all looked the same to me. I had too many skeletons in my closet to be able to keep track of who was an ally and who was an enemy. If he was the latter, God help me. It was just the two of us outside now on the once compact Parisian streets. We were completely alone. He could do or say whatever he wanted and no one would bare witness. And yet, neither of us moved, too afraid to disrupt the perfect serenity of the moment. I opened my mouth to speak, but I could not bring myself to utter a word. For the first time, I was scared to know what someone was thinking about me. I wanted to know the type of woman he saw staring back at him. I hoped he saw the woman I was pretending to be: the regal, glamorous, refined young lady I'd been bred to become. But somehow I knew he saw me differently. The man who could not look away could see everything, and I just hoped, for the both of us, that he saw how sorry I was.

I was walking to my locker when I heard someone calling for somebody. "Hey! Little cutie!" They called. I kept waking, since no one noticed me and I doubted that it would've started then. It was a hallway full of cute girls, all of them much cuter than me, so why would they be calling for me? They whistled. "Shortie with the ponytail!" They called, their voice now closer to me. I still kept walking to my locker since there were still several other girls, who were taller than me but still relatively short, wearing ponytails. I felt a light tap on my shoulder once I got to my locker. I turned around and my breath caught in my throat at who was talking to me. Maximus King. The hottest guy in all of Hillside High. With his jet black hair that was always messy but still looked amazing, his steel grey eyes that all the girls talked about, his sharp jawline that could cut someone, his tall, six-foot five inches form that towered over me, and his strong form that could easily take out pretty much all of the guys in school, he was what every girl looked for. He had a bit of a bad reputation, well, a lot of a bad reputation, but most girls didn't care about that. I cared, and was very afraid of him and all of his friends except for Xander. In fact, if he had a reputation of sleeping around, I think I would've avoided him like the plague. Good thing he only flirted with girls and never slept, kissed, or touched them. "Hey, shortie, I was talking to you," he said with his deep voice. I cleared my throat after a few seconds of me gaping at him. "S-sorry. I-I didn't k-know," I squeaked. He chuckled. "I even said 'shortie with the ponytail!' yet you still didn't know." I gulped. "That's cute," he said. Amethyst Stone, a short, four-foot eleven inches girl that Maximus King has taken an interest to. When? You'll find out. Why? He could tell you, but don't get your hopes up. Will it work out? Read if you really want to know. 12/21/18- 8/8/19- 12/27/20

"You need to live a little Jessie" My best friend said as she searched through our closet for an outfit to wear for our Girls Night Out trip, that I was desperately trying to get out of. "What do you mean? I am living, I go to work everyday, i'm in school to better myself and I still manage to look this good" I stated sitting cross legged on my bed as I watched her. Pushing the Shortest dress I had ever seen on the floor. "I hope you know i'm not wearing that" I said "Its not for you" She stated clearly throwing another dress at me "This one is, Now get up and get dressed before I call Lia in here" ----- "What's a pretty Lady like yourself doing here by yourself?" a deep dark voice said behind me as I sipped on my club soda. "I'm not my Girlfriend is on her way over now" I said in which he blatantly ignored. "Why don't you let me buy you another drink" he said placing his hand on my bare shoulder. "No thank you, now please leave me alone" I said politely even though I wanted to puke. "Bu-" "The lady said leave her alone" The bartender said coming to my rescue. when he left I looked back to the Bartender and thanked him. Ordering another drink, a deep velvet voice came up beside me, he ordered a drink before looking at me. "Want to hear a joke?" he asked me, I kept my eyes on my empty glass while answering him. "Sure" "Do you know the difference between a US Savings bond and A grown man?" he asked her "No what" she said still not looking up "A US Savings bond actually matures" he said with humor laced in his voice. I laughed softly before looking up at him, my breathe hitched, he was a walking Calvin Klein model. With his long jet black hair pulled into a man bun, his eyes crinkled in laughter as he introduced his self. "I'm Elijah" ------ Sooo this is a remake of my story One Night Stand with A billionaire. Give this a read and tell me what you think. The amazing cover was made by Andressavan

I scoffed, "Oh yeah, like I'm going to believe a werewolf!" He looked surprised, "You're human." "No shit, what clued you in?" He ignored my sarcasm, "How do you know about werewolves?" I struggled to pull my arms free, "None ya." He looked confused, "None ya?" I gave him an incredulous look, "None ya business. Shit, do I need to spell everything out for you? Now let me go!" He looked to where he was holding me before jumping to his feet with ease. I scrambled to my feet with much less grace before watching him closely. I did my best to keep my eyes on his face and not his naked body. Werewolves were monsters but I couldn't deny how fit they are. All the men were like Adonis and the women looked like goddesses. I took a deep breath to steady my heart as I spoke. "Look, I don't know what game Tony is playing but you can tell that fucker I got out fair and square. He can't have me back and that fucker can suck my dick if he doesn't like it." His eyes flicked to my crotch before setting back on my face and I let out another scoff. "It's just a figure of speech, I don't have a dick." He shrugged, "I know." I frowned, "They stop eyeing my junk like I'm an undercover tranny." He cracked a smile, and I narrowed my eyes, "Great, now that you've had a laugh, I'll be going." His eyes flashed gold as he let out a growl and took a step toward me. "You can't leave." I widened my eyes, "Down boy. I can do whatever the fuck I want. Tony can kiss my ass." His eyes flashed dangerously at the comment. "I don't know Tony or care about him. He has nothing to do with the reason you can't leave." I laughed, "Oh, yeah? Why don't you enlighten me than dog breath?" He narrowed his eyes at me, "You can't leave because you're my mate.

"What's your real name?" James asked, taking his eyes off the road for a second to glance at her. "Like my full name or...?" "No like your birth name. You've been called by three different names tonight so I'm just curious" Celia nodded, understanding. "Well my birth name is Celia but i much prefer to be called Lia or Lee." James was confused to why she would disregard such a beautiful name. "Why? I like Celia. Beautiful name for a beautiful girl" she tried to ignore the last part of his statement but couldn't help the blush rise onto her face. James must have noticed because a smirk began to creep on his. "My mom did too. She said i was a gift from god, that's why she called me Celia." He hummed, satisfied with her answer. "Heavenly." He spoke softly, almost a whisper. "Hmm?" She asked, unsure of what he meant. "Heavenly. Its the meaning of your name in Latin. I think maybe that's why its so beautiful. Though it also means 'blind one' I'm sure. Also fitting." Celia scoffed unsure of whether he was complimenting her or not. "And why would that be fitting?" She asked awaiting a response. "Because your so stupidly blind towards how gorgeous you are. All night you sat uncomfortably fidgeting with your dress and covered yourself with your arms. It was painful to watch. And yet although you can't see it, you caught the attention of every man in that room when you walked in." Celia sat in silence for a while. She had never been so flattered by a guy before. "That's surely not true. Even if they were looking in my direction they were probably staring at Natasha." James chuckled and shook his head. "What's so funny?" She asked cluelessly. "I should know Celia, i was one of them. You look amazing so take a compliment." He spoke with slight sarcasm.

A "Beauty and the Beast" retelling. Once upon a time, there was a boy in love with a Lilly. Not a flower, but a girl. It all started one beautiful autumn day. One autumn day that would change the boy's life forever. For on this day, he met Lilly, a beautiful girl with an ugly secret. A secret that threatens to destroy her if she cannot find a way to break the curse forced upon her. Filled with secrets, lies, and love, this short story captures the essence of the original fairy tale with an entirely new twist. ~~~ "Hello, my name is Lilly. What's yours? Is that your mother? I only just came to live here with Ivy, and I don't know many people that come to visit her yet. Do you come often? If you do, we could be friends! Would you like that? To be friends? Why, don't you speak at all? And you should really close your mouth; it is impolite to stare like that." Ivy called out to her from the doorway of the cottage. "Lilly, if you want him to speak, you must first cease speaking." Both of the women were laughing at the children, and Lilly blushed at the comment. "Sorry! I just haven't seen anyone my age yet, and I got excited, which happens rather easily. It reminds me a bit of puppies I've read about that just get so excited that they- oops. I'm doing it again. Sorry," she said with a shy smile. Adam, who had been standing there staring, just as she had pointed out, finally found his voice long enough to tell her his name. She beamed at him, saying that they would be great friends. She seized his hand and began tugging him toward the woods behind the cottage, shouting to Ivy and his mother, "We won't go far! Be back soon!" ~~~
