The name’s Piper; Piper Ann Dame, and I’m in love with a deerfox. That’s right. A damn, scruffy deerfox.
He’s clothed in a fiery coat of orange, amber eyes accompanied by black paws that could be gentle and soft. His antlers stretch out from his skull, like twisting trees of thick oak....
I try not to smile when I see him.
But then he smiles and my whole world melts.
I try not to look into his deep brown eyes.
But then I see them, and I can’t look away.
I try to talk to him.
But then he’s surrounded by other girls.
I try not to cry.
But then I remember that I might have loved him.
I try to avoid him in the halls.
But everywhere I turn, he’s there.
I try to hear what he’s saying t...
Grace was acutely aware that every step she took was on ground they had once trodden together. Every pavement, cobblestone, gravel path, shop floor. This was their old stomping ground and every place with imbued with significance in her mind because the memories of his presence hovering over it.

I never believed her when she said it was impossible for me to love him after what Gracie did to me three years ago. Well, here I am the luckiest girl in the world, in Paris, France, with my fiance six months before our wedding. God, I love him more than anything, or at least that...

Although they had only met hours earlier, it was like they had known each other for years. One more captivated than the other with their charm. I guess you can throw in the old cliche, “it was love at first sight”. They needed each other without even knowing it. It took this on...
Sometimes bonds are stronger than time,
Stronger than long distance,
Some bonds are simple,
Or simply unbreakable,
Unshakeable.
Some require little to no words at all,

All right, so he had struck out a lot back ...
