Chapter Four - Nick I stand in the living room shifting nervously from foot to foot while I wait for Oasis to come down. I hear footsteps on the stairs and quickly look up, hoping that it’s Oasis, but end up seeing her father instead. “Hello, Sir,” I say, offering him my hand in greeting. “Hello. Nick, is it?” Mr Summers asks, shaking my hand. “Yes, Mr Summers,” I answer him, feeling even more nervous than I already am. “...
Mill recently returned from her morning classes back to her apartment. Earlier she attempted to buy some type of cat food that both felines and people could eat. Is that even possible? Sure there are the types of fur-ball's who enjoy an outside garbage meal but there was a particular reason of why Mill needed to know this...Opening her front door, a dish bowl had been flung out towards her face. "OW! What on earth- geez!"...
The apartment door was unlocked and opened by a young woman, her movements hurried as she tried to knock off her flats one foot at a time while both of her arms were occupied with a jacket. She closed the door with her hips before placing the jacket on her couch in the living room. The girl seemed to be in a panic, but it wasn't clear exactly why. For a moment, all that could be heard was shuffling from her hallway closet...
Today the sky in San Francisco is a subdued blue with nary a cloud visible and a soft gentle breeze off the deep blue water. What type of bird shall I be flying floating above the city? That is a decision very difficult to make. I think it depends on where I am in this beautiful city. If I am near the wharf at Pier 39 soaring over the sea lions frolicking for the tourists, I could be a seagull. I would steal the food toss...
I dropped an egg on the kitchen floor - the floor must have been uneven, for the egg began to slide towards me, slowly. I thought it was chasing me. I got scared, and ran away. He always ordered eggs for breakfast. Every day I sat and watched him eat. Sometimes, I would eat too. Sometimes, he would give me something from his plate. But most days, I just sat and watched him eat. Every forkful was perfect. Each, the same si...
I keep dreaming of you, I don't know what that means... I do know that I felt an attraction, So dim but pulled me like an anchor in the sea... The eyes created a path, I didn't dare to travel it. Reality always pulled me back in, Never could I always be stuck in LA LA land, It's like these images were made of events never to happen, Even though you weren't on my mind... Little moments didn't go so far, Yet close by each o...
Chapter One Formal dresses hang on the walls all around the shop. I stand on a pedestal trying on a silver floor length halter neck dress. I thought it was a beautiful dress, but want to try on a couple more before deciding. “I’m going to try on the next one,” I say, turning to the guy sitting on the chair next to the changing room. Seeing Steven sitting in one of the small chairs the formal shop has for people to wait in...
New York’s entertainment district was jam packed that Friday night, but that hadn’t stopped twenty-one year old Èrabèlle Skylark from getting past the long lineup outside. She was a beautiful brunette with mahogany eyes, creamy fair skin, with a small beauty mark above the left corner of her lip. Onyx nightclub was filled with fog, flashing strobe lights, and dancing sweaty bodies. Synthesized bass pounded from the mounte...
Prologue - How We Met The story I am telling you is unique and rare, one someone is sure to remember and pass down for the future. It is a tale of two partners in flight. My name is Vix and I am a halfbreed of winged demons and humans. A very odd combination if you ask me, however my parents weren't the type to have a care in the world when it came down to love. No one could separate the two but it was taboo to interlock...
Chapter Ten Noah woke up just after sunrise and after his morning workout he had some time to think about if he would join that girl, Astrid, or not. After about an hour of thinking about it he consulted Primordious who said he should do what he feels is best. When the clock turned to eight Noah had decided he would at least follow through to see Astrid. He got the coliseum thirty minutes later where she was outside stand...
The Little Jewel So you thought I was in love with you I don’t know what to say You knew I’d be here waiting I must say you’re out of place There’s nothing left to wish for I waited my youth away Crying at your door While you went out to play My love grew wings As you bestowed me with your gaze My heart screamed Knowing you wouldn’t stay Nothing mattered including me You had your reasons and your ways You’re thinking you...
The Final Tour I admit I was miffed – near the end of my shift when my radio squawked a request for just one final run ‘til my workday was done – to a house with an east-side address. I was slightly perturbed when I pulled to the curb and I anxiously tapped on my horn, then I started to go when my fare failed to show – but my dutiful sense left me torn. I was Irked as a crab when I climbed from my cab and proceeded to kno...
Walking along the beach staring out over the waves. The sun slowly setting As a gentle breeze blows salt onto our lips. I feel your arms tighten pulling me against you. My foot catches on something And I fall, landing on the soft sand. Looking back, I notice a bottle I pick it up and go to place it in my bag when I notice a piece of paper inside. Curiousity getting the better of me I just had to open it Tapping it gently...
Sitting here on the beach surrounded by our friends Curled up, in each other’s arms we listen to the crackle of the fire. Slowly we lean back Looking up at the bright stars And I feel your arms tighten around me As you pull me close. Slowly I turn look up into your eyes Feeling your warm breath against my cheek you slowly turn and brush your lips against mine. Gradually the kiss intensity grows and I feel you press harder...
2 "Another round over here!" Owen shouted towards the bartender. The bartender nodded and grabbed two more beers. Owen and Jay were drunk off their asses and we all watched as Jay struck out with a girl at the bar table. I could not help but feel kind of bad for him; but in her defense, I'd watched as he drunkenly muttered the same cliché pick up line to three other girls within the last twenty minutes. A song came on tha...
