[Taken from the fanfic I'm currently writing]

• Characters are from the game "I Was a Teenage Exocolonist"; Tangent and Solana (Also referred as "you", because Sol is the character you play as)

(Age 17, early pollen night)

– I have feelings for you, Tangent, – Sol breathes out, not looking at her. You hear her shift, attention snapping as she processes your words.

– Are you...

He gave me some butter

I gave him syrup

But it didn’t stick

When works aren’t good

When people don’t always stay

When things get tough

They bolt to the door

Without a warning or a reason

So I tried to make his butter lasted

But it wouldn’t

Because syrup and butter aren’t friends

tho he told me that he liked me but it came and went

I slipped away from him and he’s pressed on being spiteful...

“you like Woody Allen?”

he asked me

love him

i said

“do you know what he did?!”

yes

“how could you like

that monster?”

he makes good movies

“that is awful.

do you listen to Kanye?”

yes

“Michael Jackson?”

king of pop

“so you only like

criminals and predators.”

i like artists

i said

and ordered another beer

so you do not

separate the artist

from the art

“no.”

he said

“why should they ...

“quite the craptastic sister” they say. mocking my mistake, joking with me.

joy lies in their eyes, glittering in the dim light.

they don’t see the pain they inflict. conceal. conceal. conceal.

“i’m disappointed” he said.

the conversation ended. i lightened the mood.

i’m fine. i’m fine. i’m fine.

“you don’t care enough to fix the heart you broke “

a song accuses me of exactly what i’v...

“I’m getting married!” Julie burst, jumping up and down. She and her best friend Kevin had stopped by their life long favorite ice cream shop, Creamy Bliss, and she couldn’t keep the secret any longer.

“Wait, what? Really?” Kevin asked, stunned.

“Yeah, me and George! Can you believe it?”

“Hardly! Congrats, Jules.” Kevin forced a smile, trying to be happy for the girl who meant ev...

Loss:

The tunes of ABBA swirled my mind.

I could feel my hands begin to tremble, and my palms wiped nervous sweat against my sleeves, gripping the fabric.

The spotlight shined upon the three of us, standing on the stage. I couldn’t bring myself to look at my parents, somewhere in the crowd. Not that I could see them, anyways. The lights were too blinding to distinguish any face. I was half certain...

Sean burst into the room, noticed that his girlfriend’s cat, Mark, was sleeping, and tiptoed over to the desk. As he reached out a cautious hand to pet the usually-grumpy cat, he whispered to Steffani, “Have you heard the news?”

She nodded and continued to work on her calculus homework.

“The new fishing store is gonna be awesome,” Sean enthused as he paced around the room, disturbing M...

"I hate it," she said.

At first, I wasn't sure what she was talking about.

"Hmmm?" I asked, looking up from my phone.

"I hate it."

"'Hate' is such a strong word."

"You like this?" She looked at me in disbelief as if I liked some horrendous cultural gaffe, like eating puppies or kicking older women in the backside.

"What are we talking about?"

"You never pay attention," she said. "You just d...

Every guy I talk to only wants me for my body

They talk to me, but just till they find out I won’t let them see

Apparently I’m too boring because I won’t show myself

Even though if I did I’d just be called a whore again

“Bop” “slut” the words are thrown around so easily

Wether it’s because of how I dress or that I’m dating

It’s not like I’m out cheating, but apparently I shouldn’t be happy

Guys...

Mochi: I hate reading!

Me: you are wrong reading is the best!

Mochi: No! Math is more important than reading! You are going to live your life off of numbers! In reading all you do is just read words.

Me: that’s not true! Books make you learn more about and connected to the world

They deepen one’s perspective of life

They also better your personality

Mochi: blah blah stop using such teenpage...
