“Happy Training” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #198

"Okay class, Pop Quiz" We heard from the unexpectedly cheerful female voice.. A hidden male figure In all black removed the cloth cover over our heads revealing a confused bunch of us. All different and varying in ages, shapes, colors and languages. The now intensely bright lit room did not resemble a classroom but an obstacle course that was viewed to be the size of at least 3 indoor football fie...

“Just climb the tree” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #190

"Speak now." The command echoes in the spaces between my thoughts. Blinking, trying to wet my eyes and refocus on the figure in front of me. "Do you... do you think that the fish knows that the bears the enemy?" "Christ! We're not doing this again. Always these dumb questions and hypotheticals. Did you even hear a single thing I said?" "Right, because you're so considerate and comprehensible while ...

“Gate 12” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #168

I love when it rains. As egotistical as it may sound I feel like the rain comes in acknowledgement of me and my feelings. The smell alone relaxes my nerves and release a feeling of peace that allows me to believe that it's okay to just let go. Although, what gets me the most about the rain is the color of the sky. The darkness. Usually it comes through constant waves of darkening gray that slowly swallows any color in th...

“Electrical Circuits” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #121

I struggle with words. Sometimes I can not speak at all for I've undergone selective mutism. It's a part of my illness. I am ashamed but I know if people knew that the electrical circuit in between my neurons had a short they may be more understanding of my awkwardness. I have learned to enjoy my time alone. Since words always deem to fail my expression for life and others I've begun to notice the small things around me....

“Grandparents” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #120

"Awww oh my gosh your baby is so cute" Dressed in a white buttoned down colorful polka dot shirt paired with bright yellow drawstring pants. He was no more than two years old and I could practically hear the wonder in his eyes. So young, new, innocent. His grandparents were beyond proud to stroll through Landblurberry Park showing off the beauty of their newest DNA strand. Later that day they window shopped through 10 st...

“It's just a crush” by Flower Queens Adventures

He stood there. He was muscular and slim. The way his legs held up his body ignited the air of grace, strength, and boldness. He begins to walk and I swear every footstep leaves the ground blooming in happiness for being blessed by his presence.  He doesn't seem to notice me staring but, oh no, he looked and gosh I should've looked away. But his eyes, those gorgeous circles of fiery gold have become my new favorit...

“Neighborhood Vacuuming ” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #90

At first the dirty looks bothered her but she’s way more experienced at it now. She begins to slowly bend over and pick up a broken piece of plastic. Sometimes it’s better to have a system but other times she cleans as she pleases. Whenever she feels an excess of energy and her regular pastimes dont interest her, she bundles up, puts on two pairs of gloves and with a couple of trash bags she walks to the end of her neig...

“Untamed” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #86

Her gamertag was UntamedDaisy but everyone called her Untamed. She wore a Daisy pendant necklace because she believed its qualities,innocence, purity and newness, fit her perfectly. She wasn’t the best video gamer but she was one of a kind. “Asturd”, “ThatGuy3”, “ChocolateAsh”, and “PoppinCherreees”, were all her best friends, and yes she knew their real names but she rarely used them. Gamertags had their own type of an...

“The Artistic City” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #85

That's the thing about this city, the community has changed so dramatically that I worry if I’m not trendy with new art, I will no longer be accepted as an original “Austinite”. The art that you immerse yourself in while in Austin is seen, heard and felt through; music, handmade artworks, and the strategic placing of items all around the city. When walking down congress the first thought in your mind will be, “wait is t...

“Rosebud Vault” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #84

The door begins to unlock and, even though my heart is breaking, I'm filled with excitement. All I can hear are the muffled sobs of my little brother and my dad's worried, shaky voice as he attempts to console him. The sunlight begins to slowly drift onto the uneven asphalt walkway, parted only by unusable train tracks. The door opens up completely and as the sunlight blinds me, my enthusiasm and taste for adventure sil...

“In The Darkness” by Flower Queens Adventures

Submitted to Contest #81

We bantered and flirted, my eyes bouncing towards him and the timer making sure not to burn the cherry filled chocolate lava cake I've been perfecting for weeks. His words 'You're Gorgeous' warming my blood while he teases me about kissing my lips and then he waited until I called his bluff. Once he took two steps towards me the space between us felt heavy. He held my face so firmly in his grip <...
