Darwin walked in, still in his uniform. Ivory raised an eyebrow. "What took you so long?" "Nothing," he said curtly. "Alright." Ivory spun around, facing Mr. Dupont again. "Almost done," he said while plating the pasta. "Annabel!" Annabel walked in, untying her bun. Her long, strawberry-blonde hair fell to her shoulders. "Good evening, madam, Darwin," she said, blushing slightly. The kitchen went silent. Everyone knew she had a slight crush on Darwin, but she never tried to make it obvious or make any moves on him. "Voilà!" Mr. Dupont exclai...
Holly:My face was burning with the cold. My nose was red and I could see every breath I took. I snuggled myself in my winter coat over my tight dress. I kept my present for him close. However, I was still buzzing with excitement. It was the first time Chase had ever invited me to a Christmas party, or any party for that matter. But still, I could see my crush, right? I guess seniors are supposed to get past all this lovey-dovey stuff and start dating or getting a job. Not me.My life as a high school senior was almost a normal one. I had know...
Carter sat on a cushioned chair and crossed one leg over the other. “We finally found her again…” he said in a low voice. “Ah… our little angel,” Caleb agreed. “It’s been so long since we’ve seen her. Six years has it? We were ten I remember.”“Yeah. She still wears the hair clip we gave her, but it seems she has forgotten us,” replied Carter with a slightly saddened, but amused tone. “It would be fun to play with her again,” laughed Caleb. “Young masters,” said Catherine, “the master wants your audience.”Carter looked at ...

Amara sat in a cushioned chair reading a book. There was a knock and her father came in. "Amara, dear, Prince Aspen sent a letter," he said. Amara looked up from her book and took the letter. "What does it say?" Her father, Silas, shook his head. "I don't know, I didn't open it." Amara nodded and opened it. She read through it and bit her lip. Dear Lady Amara Ciara Hart, I have to speak with you at the grand ball. It is extremely important. It will be a public announcement concerning our engagement. I will further explain at the ball. Since...
Ivory felt her phone vibrating in her purse. She took it out and checked who was calling. It was Mom. Ivory hesitated before she answered the phone. It's been four years since she left home and became a successful singer, so why did Mom start calling now?Ivory took a deep breath and picked up the call."Hello? Mom? Why are you calling?" she asked.The other line was silent."Hello?" Ivory said again."Sweetie... Can you please come back to Florida? Your father is getting sick, and Chris is having a wedding..." said a quiet voice. ...
TW: This story contains sexual content.***I felt myself being pushed out of the room by an invisible force. The door closed and locked. I banged on the door, tried to unlock it with my magic, kick it down, but nothing worked. I gave up knowing Logan was much more skilled at magic than me. I sat on the floor, miserable and angry.I could hear the muffled moans and whimpering. Panting and the screaming of names. I just wanted to see Charlotte, and the moment I did, she was taken away by my brother again. I don’t know how much time pas...
Jane sat at a table and received a menu. She was dining at a new Italian reasturant that had just opened nearby. It had gotten good reviews, so Jane decided to try it for herself.She was looking at the menu when a random boy sat across from her.“Sorry, but can I sit here for a second?” he said, not waiting for an answer. Jane sat there in silence, staring at the stranger. He was kind of odd. The guy had black hair, blue eyes, and olive skin. He wore a white hoodie and black jeans.Then a beautiful-looking girl came in, saw the ...
I sat by my mother’s bedside, watching her chest slowly rise and fall. It wasn’t fair to both of us. A sick fifty-three-year-old woman was left by her husband. A sixteen-year-old taking care of her ill mom and twelve-year-old little sister, keeping an eye on her older brother juggling two jobs and away for college, and paying the bills and debt left by her father. I checked my watch for the time. Oh no, it was 7:56! I was going to be so late! I dashed downstairs and found Olivia finishing her cereal and putting on her shoes and backpack...
Anita pulls me aside in the hallway. “Chizuru, I need to tell you something,” she whispers in my ear.I look at her with curiosity. “What is it?” I ask.Anita giggles. “So you know about that crush I’ve been talking about?” she says, still giggling.I roll my eyes. “Hard to forget. You’ve been talking about him for the past two months nonstop!”“Yeah, well, he’s Enzo!” Anita squeals.My heart drops. She likes my crush? No. I can’t ruin our friendship just because of some boy. There are plenty of other boys out there. I put on a smirk, even t...
It was cool and fresh. The salty breeze blew through my face. The sand and the clear ocean water were cool.I walked along the shore of the beach with bare feet. The sand was soft. But as I looked along the distance, I spotted someone in a wheelchair. He was struggling, trying to get to the shore. I did the only logical thing: I ran to help him.“Are you trying to get to the water? Here, let me help you,” I said. I push the boy towards the shore. Then I set him facing the water.“Thank you,” said the boy.I smile at him. “No problem. What’s your...
TW: This story contains sexual content.***The third-period bell rang. I was about to put my books away, but Zyan quickly intervened. “Hey, you want to go out with me tonight?” Zyan asked as he leaned on my locker.“No, but can you please move? I need to get to science,” I answered.“C’mon, just this once,” Zyan said.“No, now can you move?” I sighed.“I’m not budging until you say yes.” Zyan looked down at me like I was his pet, ordering it to sit.“Ugh, fine!” I groaned. “I’m going to be late for our next period, please just move!”“Okay, ok...
TW: This story contains sexual content.***I scroll through pictures of guys. Tapping, reading, then tapping again. There aren’t any guys that fit my taste.I sigh. I’m already twenty-two and I still don’t have a boyfriend. I'm kind of getting desperate nowadays.I keep scrolling and see a not-bad-looking guy with glasses. I clicked on his profile and read through it. Yup. He’s my type for sure: funny, knows how to cook, likes to read watches anime, and is good at math.I opened up the chat and text him.Hi.I waited for a little while, staring at...
