Hearing a loud bang, I ran down stairs, almost tripping on the bottom step. No. I take that back almost tripping on a red plastic cup. I lifted my eyes slowly, dread shining across my features. What had she done. My older sister was sitting on a chair in the family room completely intoxicated. “Oh. Hey… did I ever tell you how pre-,” she trailed off, looking else where. She had done it again. Mom ...
I can see them. All of the lost souls that wander this earth. A blessing and a curse. Ever since I was born I’ve had the ability to see them. Along with this freed vision i know exactly how and when I’m going to die, on my 21st birthday, bar shooting. So Since the day I found out what I was actually seeing, I’ve decided to live my life to the fullest. Doing and trying whatever I can in the time th...
“I wish…I wish…”
“Don’t you dare say it!” Tyler yelled interrupting my concentration. “This is what I’m meant to do! Let me save him!” I start the spell again, “I wish that my body and soul be replaced by hi-.” Tyler rams into my side causing me to stumble and brake the spell. “ What the heck do you think you’re doing?! Your gonna kill your self to save him!” Tyler stood in between me and him. I ...
Person A:”That’s non of your concern.”
Person B:”I thought I was supposed to meet a man not some kid.”
Person A:”I wonder what gave you that impression. Look are you gonna take it or not cause I could always give it to someone else for a higher price. Honestly I’m doing you a favor.”
Person B: “Fine. Here take your reward. Now what’s a kid like you gonna do with pure mercury.”
Person A:”Again like...
I sit on the swing and kick at the dirt below me. He loved swings. Playgrounds. Gosh, if I had just been there to help him…. He could still be here. Tears stream down my face like a tiny flood. I should have been there. I should’ve known. How could I be so stupid! I get up from the swing and stand by the slide. It’s like I can still see him, hear him laughing. In the beginning it was all about the...
I’m not normal. I’m not perfect. I’m the nobody who sits in the back of class, away from the public’s eyes. And hey I didn’t chose to be different, disliked. I chose to not let anyone get hurt. Cause they don’t know who I am, what I am. Everyone sees what they want to see. They see a girl, quiet, nothing in particular that’s wrong with me but oh how wrong they are. When I look in the mirror I don’...
“Wait up! Quinn! Wait!” Ethan ran after me. A ferocious blush broke across my face. I kissed him… I kissed him!! I can’t believe I did that! What’s wrong with me! Your best friend since birth! He was not to far behind me, I couldn’t talk to him not now. I continued running, past my house, past the gate to the forest and the beware sign, until I got to my spot or rather our spot. The one place wher...
Ding dong!!! “Can u get that sweetie,”my mom yelled from the kitchen. My dog ran to the door with her tail wagging, jumping up trying to see who it was. It’s probably just a delivery person with the pizza I ordered, my moms not a very good cook. I unlocked the door and opened it. “Hi thank you so….” I looked up and immediately stopped talking. My mouth fell open and my eyes widened.
My father st...
