Bruce stayed at Amber's house for quite a while going over the answers they would need if questioned about the story she told. Neither one was well adept at telling lies so this would take some effort on their parts to be believable. Amber retrieved the calendar from her room and they went over it week by week. From the time she returned home from Greece to the day she found out that she was pregnant. They had to pick a t...

It's deja vu, but not at all the same. How can that be?Almost three years ago I almost lost you. You had been sick for months, so our life had been strained, I needed you more than you were capable of giving. We were soul mates, the couple everyone was envious of, and yet we threw it all away. Our connection had eroded weakening our commitment. I was lonely, feeling lost and immersed in stress. And then you were admitted...

It's all my fault. No matter how much I blame the GPS it was still my mistake. Trusting technology over common sense got us into this situation. Damn! I can call it a situation, but it's more serious than that would ever convey. We're lost. Stranded and freezing. We could soon die, if we don't do something. If I don't do something. It's all my fault.The sandy surface of the California shore was burning our bare feet as we...

“Nicole, is this yours?” Tara asked the next morning when she walked in holding a letter. “It has your name on it. Who is it from?” she asked as I took it. Dear Nicole, It’s hard to explain how you got these letters since I don’t have your address but the time will come when you will find out how they came to you. I know what you have been through. No one your age or any age should have to go through such a hardship and h...

Chapter Two Walking into the house, I step out of my shoes, shut the door behind myself and start toward the stairs to my room. “Kayla, is that you? Can you come in to the lounge room please?” my mother calls out to me. “Sure, Mum,” I say, walking into the lounge room, bags still in hand. “Am I in trouble?” I see my mum sitting in her favourite spot in the lounge. Dad was sitting on the lounger beside her. Looking at them...

As the sun rose, its light poured brightly on Cricket's bed into her happy face. She slept happily dreaming of the dress in the milliner's shop. She wanted to return and buy it or at least try it on. Her hazel eyes shone brightly as she got out of bed to face another day. She twirled on the floor imagining she wore the dress. As she twirled and spun, she hummed the song "I Feel Pretty" from "West Side Story." She bathed q...

Rebekah had never really noticed how quiet Alex Wolfe was before. But then again, she found herself thinking, if he had been less quiet she would probably have noticed him more before now. And then there would have been no reason to think he was so quiet, because he wouldn't be. There was probably a name for things which looped back around like that. She'd have to get online when she got home and look it up; it might make...

What is Winter But a season of nostalgia Don't know what brings back more The coldness Or the coziness Fog of forgotten  rain of rememberence mist of memories: some beautiful some bad Some sweet some sad But all with a touch of unfathomed melancholy Like no one is listening and never will Like time has stopped,clocks still The moment will never pass Chained in echoes of past Solitude of souls Filling the vacant holes In t...

Chapter Twenty Noah looked down at his map and sighed. “You know,” he said, “I don’t know if I am going the right way or not.” “And you’re asking me for directions?” Primordious asked. “Well I mean I never have been to Saeyune before, remember I went straight from Uryaen to Aeon Torris. Not many magicians do that you know. Still this map has none of the roads marked out on it; it’s very vague I was extremely ripped off.”...

The words will not come to me To make you see my way Why do I get so angry you ask me When every few minutes you say Hold on Wait a minute Got to go I will be back Love you babe You do it now It went on and on like that I needed to talk to you To have you hear me out No right or wrong you see Just I am here without a doubt I let you down I know I am only human too Do I have to make an appointment Just to talk to you If th...

I woke up dreaming of you.Holding me close to you,But it wasn't meant to be you.A dream that never came true.It was then I had met you.I just knew I had to get close to you.I only chose you.A dream that never came true.I gave my heart to you.I fell too quickly for you.I let my breath fade as I look a you.A dream that never came true.I had fought for you.Sometimes even against you.Just because I love you.A dream that never...

Once in their car and headed home all the emotions that Amber had struggled with to keep inside began to take its toll. "Daddy, pull over. I'm going to be sick," she said quickly. Her Father quickly curbed the vehicle as Amber opened the door and threw up in the street. When she finished they continued home and once there she raced to the bathroom to brush her teeth. She returned to the kitchen and discovered her Father h...

If I look back To that year in my life When everything turned upside down And my world was filled with strife I was stupid and naive And lost sight of what mattered I quickly left a wake in my path Of people's feelings broken and shattered I fell hook line and sinker For words of lies and deceit Instead of working on my life With the person that makes me complete Luckily even though not his intention A wise old man showed...

Pool of blood all on the floorYou'll be missed? Not even sureEvery word I hear that's toldSeems to surprise my damaged soulThe things you say and things I hear Seem to be the thing I fearYou told me once now tell me twice What's the reason for my cries Locked and loaded here we goThere's only one last thing to doAfter my last curtain call Pull the trigger and down I fall.

let me die alone cover me with your blanket  and lay me in the casket  have no regrets and share no tears  be strong my love  I know you truly care I beg of you dear  go on with your life  there is no reason why you should die tonight,  I loved you in life and you gave me nothing but joy so let me die alone, keep me in your heart and reminisce  on the day we part and how it came to this but let me die alone  so I may prep...
