Being sure she was recording she was recording a wide shot. “I don’t think this is going to work Tommy.” She remarked as she zoomed in and out on her screen. “The two-way mirror is impossible for the camera to record the room.” Tommy Comet looked through the two-way mirror. “Well we have the CCTV footage.” Tommy almost felt bad for a moment while looking at his beaten and battered friend on the floor. Then he turned to the camera, “just keep it rolling, follow me as I walk i...

My father would have disapproved of their attendance. After I first met them up close I realized the ugly and brutish creatures softened their features to resemble ours. “They assume a form like ours to help us feel more comfortable around them,” my mom explained. They will never be beautiful though. When they joined our society they brought a wealth of new technologies. Without hesitation we adopted their tools and welcomed the Aliens into our world.

First dates, whether they’re terrible or amazing, aren’t always the best indicators for the compatibility of two people. Sometimes a date is good, for example a date that ends without sex. Some are bad. Like many other bad dates that take you to a trailer park, or a convenience store, or where you get kicked out of someone’s house, this date started at a bar. We had been in a relationship for a few months. Finding a boyfriend in a place where you bumped into somebody whenever you stepped out of your apartment was difficult though. It’s not s...

Overboard The train, like a missile on magnetic tracks, shot through the fog. The wind whistled at its back. The windows crystallizing with ice as the sleek silver passenger car passed through the Appalachian range. On one side the shadows of mountains rose up in the distance, and on the other a lake of water stood glimmering.

There was plenty of leg room for everyone and spac...

Trevor’s eyes were hazel and bright in the afternoon sun. His black bangs hanging over his long eyelashes. We smiled together, mine hidden behind my thin lips, his wide and flashy. I ran through the forest, dancing along with the spirals of light shining through the tree tops. He followed after. My house was at the end where the path turned into a Cul-de-sac. It was a two story modern home with white shutters and large windows on the corner of Borrow street. I had lived there all of my life but despite that living there had always felt forei...
