I got down on my hands and knees, the grass poking me and the leaves sticking to my hands and pants. As I crawled through, it felt as though I was entering a forbidden castle...one that hadn't been entered in years. I stood up and brushed the leaves and grass from my clothes. Taking in my surroundings, I saw a haunted house before me.
Most people would leave it alone, but I was a curious person. I had entered the beyond, and I would explore it.
I pushed the door open and walked in.
A 2-part short story I'm writing based on the Owl City song Plant Life. Kind of a mini-writing challenge.

Before She Even Knows
''There is only one thing crossing my mind right now. If he hates me so much, then why the hell is he kissing me back?'' ----------------------- Emma White has always been kind of a loner. Her mother died giving birth to her and her father never really cared, always working in his successful company. That's why she decides to go to a college away from home, something she's been dreaming of since she can remember. However, what happens when at her very first day on campus, she crosses path with Noah Allen? He is rich, popular, cold, rude and a player just to start with. No surprise she calls him Mr. Grumpy. What is driving her insane though is that he's only too cold when it comes to her. After some not so pleasant moments and lots of glares, she tells herself that the best is to stay away from him, but it won't be that easy. After a disastrous kiss and hidden jealousy, she finds herself deeply involved into what is this frustrating boy. Add to that the fact that he is her roommates' childhood best friend and you can see drama from miles away. Noah claims to hate her ever since they met, and he doesn't mean her first day of college. He remembers her just fine from a couple of years ago and all the feelings are back. He knows she doesn't remember him and he'll use this as his leverage to do what he has to do. It's what he promised his father and himself, even if it means he has to pretend to care for her. All he cares is his family business. At least it's what he tells himself, until the feelings start getting too mixed and he ends up thinking of her more than he should. Maybe it's not all about business after all. He knows their history started before she even knows, what he didn't expect was for her to be so different from what he has always believed.Complete

Hidden (Papa IV X Male)
*THIS STORY IS REMAINING UNFINISHED* An aspiring and burnt out writer finds inspiration for their new book in the old ghost stories of their hometown. Namely, a secret cult hiding out in the woods. In an attempt to search for this group, he is thrust into an unfamiliar world of sin and, surprisingly, compassion. *I DO NOT OWN THE CHARACTERS OF THE BAND GHOST* *this story does not use the Y/N format but the main character is purposefully pretty undeveloped as of now to make up for that* This story contains heavy language, sexual themes and innuendos, and other adult themes. Discretion is advised. I am a fairly young writer, so constructive criticism and suggestions are welcome and encouraged!Complete

If you have questions about, don't hesitate to ask. The roof crashed down at the speed of lightning, crushing me under the table as I gasped for air. My mind scrambling to process what had happened as I felt rubble falling around me, surrounding me in darkness. I reached up, my arm stinging as I hit the hard wood table over me, which was keeping the rubble off me, miraculously. I wiped my forehead, sweat, and probably blood dripping down my arm and side of head as I reached for a nearby rock, trying to push on it, hoping that it might help me out of this disaster. "Mom? Betty?" I called, hoping for a response, only to get none. I didn't even get the slightest whimper from any of them. What the heck happened? "Mom?! Betty?!" I screamed this time, trying to push myself up onto my back, my leg killing me so much that I had to give up. I laid back down on the ground, placing my hand on the bottom of the table; anger, fear, confusion getting the best of me. I screamed as I banged my fists on the wood table. "MOM? BETTY?" Nothing. I was ready to bang on the wood again, but I flinched back when I heard the sound of moving rubble. Whoever it is was almost near where I was, and ... moving quickly. So, there's no possible way that it was a human. It would take hundreds do men to lift these boulders, but whoever this person is, is stronger than anyone I would kn- My thoughts froze as I watched something large wrap around the edges of the table, lifting it up; my eyes widening as I came face to face with the largest creature known to mankind. A giant. (This is my book from my own brain. These are my own characters based off my family members. Please do not steal it.)Complete
Good at Games, Bad at Love (18+)
"Can I give you a hug?" Is it possible to want and not want something at the same time? "Please?" he insists and I nod. He approaches me and my breathing becomes irregular, our bodies are too close. He doesn't hug me. Instead, his hands touch mine, brushing my skin. My fingers caress his. His head comes closer to me and rubs his nose gently on my neck, making me shiver. I hear him inhale, and I close my eyes. I can feel his warm breath on my skin and I'm already on fire. "You realize that I've never wanted anything so much in my life." I feel his lips brush my neck and go up to my ear. I sigh. "Peter ..." I manage to say. "Don't do that. Don't moan my name like that or I won't be able to pull away," he whispers in my ear and then he gently bites it. My hands squeeze his. *** Kelly, a female player, has to resist a boy for the first time in her life in order to stop getting into trouble like she always did. But he's so hard to resist.

The Long Walk Home
IT lets go of me, my head hits the ground again, no sound echos this time. IT's mouth movies, but my ears ring, so I can't hear IT. Everything is blurry and movies too much. I can't focus on anything. IT looks at me, IT's eyes are all gray. IT smirks and stands all of the way up, towering over me. I pull myself up and wobble away from IT on unsteady feet. I look back to see IT laughing, watching me walk away. I can't hear her terrible laughter, and I don't want... to... I fall over, feeling woozy. My head spins and I sway as I try to stand. I look back again, to see that the fog has covered my path, and I can only see a couple of inches away from my face. I blow out air and fall over. * * * * 13 year old Colten, takes a shortcut through the field next to his house on his way home. But why can't he reach his destination?Complete
