Theo. Fucking. Marrin.

Of course Gracie met and adored him and listened to his gold-spun stories and began to fall for him.

Everyone always did, and I figured that ten years would have put enough distance between us; I also thought moving several states away would have settled the sting.

I was wrong.

HE was wrong.

Theo is a bully, but not the kind that berates or pushes you around. He’s a...

“This is my girlfriend Carmen,”

Apparently the kindhearted Carmen I’ve been hearing about for the past 2 weeks, is the same Carmen that bullied me for /years/.

‘Two faced is the person who stepped on my heart to watch it bleed. Two faced is the person who wooed my love in deed. Oh, what she has achieved,’ I’ve written about Carmen before, but it apart of the collection about Josie.

“This is m...

“Look, Noultra, I know you’re still pissed off about failing your math exam, but I’m glad you came with me today to meet my boyfriend.” Kisanjul said.

“I didn’t fail!” Noultra shrieked. “I got cheated out of from that jerk!”

Kisanjul chuckled. “So how’d he do it?”

“Did what?” Noultra knitted an eyebrow.

“How he made it look like you cheated.” Kisanjul clarified.

“Oh. Well, since I’m like...

My footsteps echoed through the metalic hallway as I flipped though 200 pages of material so boring it made me want to jump ship.

Ugh. This is going to take me eons to get through. Even the tri-dimention reality emulations were dull. At least I got to leave class early, I guess.

I barely looked down to swipe my room key, "Fif, help me out with this would yo–"

The book left my hand mid-script, ...

I saw them coming up the walkway towards the parking lot, hand in hand. Once they got closer and I could make out their faces, my heart dropped into my gut and my smile faded away.

Little did my friend know, I used to be part of a mob. I have left that life behind now. But it wasn’t easy and I wasn’t necessarily safe. By not ‘necessarily safe’ I mean I almost got killed on my way out. And the man...

‘Meet Ren…Lisa.’ Frazie excitedly said.

‘REN!!!’ I bellowed in recognition.

I can’t believe it was him…my secret admirer. I didn’t have romantic feelings for him, I just wanted to be like him. I wanted his success, his intelligence and his looks. I want to be just like him…a perfectly-sculpted human . So, I followed him and…I became kind of a stalker.

Lisa’s felt embarrassment sprinkling a...

Oswin narrowed his eyes, burrowing deeper inside his woolly jumper. Across the workshop, Selander stood with the dancer, what was his name? Oh yes. Oswin's lip curled. Masahiko.

With his perfect posture and wavy locks, he looked like some kind of fallen angel. And it didn't help that his cheekbones were as sharp as a blade and his eyes an alluring shade of hazel - Selander's type as much as alch...

I hate that I’m going to have to pretend.

I abhor pretending.

I took a deep breath as I saw the two of them round the brick building corner from the parking lot, staring into each other's eyes and hand-in-hand like a stupid Disney sitcom.

“Charlotte!” Sam skipped up and swung her arms around me in a strong squeeze. I haven’t known her too long, but we’ve already become so close.

She beamed all w...

Another arson crime was committed.

This one being exactly like the others.

A scream was heard, a large fire was seen, and when the firefighters arrived; the house already collapsed and the lives of a family of four were extinguished. I pulled out the cabinet to place the arson file with it’s brothers and sisters. The 16th in line of the serial killings of the crazed arsonist that had been setting...

“Come on im sure you will love him.”

Charlotte said as she dragged me along with her

“Jeez im coming, slow down.”

I said

Its been forever since Charlotte had the accident and got diagnosed with permanent amnesia.

We tried our hardest to regain her memories but it never worked so we just let her live her life.

Charlotte dragged me around the corner and then stopped in front of a man

“Rosanne, O...
