Dare

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #58

Once it came down to my dare, I knew it was going to be big, and I had to execute it perfectly, I checked my mailbox, that's where the official dare would be. I raced out my front door, past the driveway and to the little mailbox by the trees. I opened the little door and found the letter sitting there, the fancy envelope with a fancy crest we designed on the red wax seal. I opened it to find the older looking piece of parchment paper, with the cursive writing I loved to look at. These letters were half the fun of the game. I unfolded the pa...

“It’s been a while since your head has been in the right place, maybe you need a reset.” Camila sighed. It was all she was herring lately, not that she could oppose, it was the excuse she used everytime she didn’t feel well or was acting down. Now more than ever, it felt like it was happening quite often. Camila was usually down, she hardly felt like herself anymore. “Take a couple days off school, and go home or something, take a break.” Echo pushed on. “You really need it.” Camila shook her head. “I have a lot to do, so no break yet. I hav...

Late Again

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #49

Alex My alarm rang at precisely Five am on this lovely Monday morning. I rolled out of bed and after brushing my teeth I went straight into the kitchen ready to make myself a nice cup of tea. I made my way back to my room, grabbed my laptop and walked over to my makeshift office room. I sat down at my desk and began writing. I wrote for about an hour, finishing my tea, I changed and went to the gym. After an hour and a half, I drove to work, I reached 15 minutes earlier so I could prepare for the meeting before my shift. All...

The Waiting Area

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #49

I tapped my foot impatiently as I waited for the announcement to board my plane. It was the first time I was traveling alone, and I never realized how long the wait was. I was nervous, but bored at the same time. Focusing on the curl that kept falling out of my braids, I started twirling it around my finger. Looking up ever so often, I noticed a girl who was making her way to the seats near me, she looked oddly familiar. She had the same dark hair as mine, but the rest of her face was covered by her hat and sunglasses. I went back to mindles...

Halloween Eve Edition

Ivy Moonlit

“Ima go check the mail Jake, be back in a minute!” I heard an okay from the shower, grabbed the keys and went downstairs. I headed to our mailbox and flipped through the mail. Newspapers, fliers, some coupons making me want to drag Jake on another date. We don’t go out as much now that we live together. The last item I pulled out of the box before locking the mailbox back up was something I wasn’t expecting. A hand written letter to Jake? Who was writing him letters. I flipped the letter over to see a fancy red wax seal, from a place I didn’...

Begin Again

Submitted to Contest #46

“You should really start writing again, you were really great.” Abygail popped the bubble she was making with her gum. “Yea, I miss all that crazy talk you used to do.” Sam ran a hand through her curly orangey blonde hair. “Yea and you should go to a real hair salon to get your hair done,” I rolled my eyes, knowing it was one of the many things she wouldn’t do. “I swore off going to hair salons because of a traumatic experience. You on the other hand, have no excuse.” I shook my head again, “I was never cut out to be a writer. I was never go...

New Life

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #43

It was 5 am, my alarm had yet to go off and I was groggy but I managed to get out of bed to answer the knock on the door. I was tempted to ignore it, nobody should be knocking at my door at this hour, anyone who knows me knows that, I figured it might be something important, or someone I could just send away and go back to sleep. I opened the door, unaware of my tangled bedhead and morning breath. “Hello?” I asked as I opened the door. “I need your help.” The voice chuckled an all to memorable laugh. “Mateo?” I tried to flatten my messy hair...

Dear Diary

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #43

Dear diary, Arielle is exactly one week old now and this all still feels so new and scary to me. I just hope I can be the mother she deserves. Arielle is such a cute little baby, she always smiles when she sees someone new and today I think she reached up to grab my finger. I can't wait to see what happens next. Jeremy bought her some new clothes for the summer, my favourite is a cute little purple skirt with a matching "I love Mommy" white shirt. We've been talking so many pictures, Jeremy wants to take lots of pictures and videos so w...

It was hardest on Skylar, so most years, everyone left her to recollect her thoughts, remember her. Skylar and Avery had bought a big house together, neither of them ever tho...

The prophecy

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #42

I could have spent years, lifetimes even, looking for the prophecy if it wasn’t for you, I could have wasted an eternity searching for something I had just heard, it might have just been a rumour, and I wouldn’t have stopped searching. You helped me, you don’t know you helped me, but once you did I lost you. You helped me retrive the prophecy, helped me set another goal for me to meet, you helped me grow, and for a while now I have been plotting, planning, trying to piece together the puzzle pieces. Attempting to answer my endless flow of qu...

Karma's Injuries

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #42

I wasn’t supposed to be out, but I just had to clear my mind. I just had to get out. I shouldn’t have been walking down dark alley ways, I was always reminded they were dark and dangerous. Why was I walking there? The last thing I remember was foggy, but I think I heard footsteps running, they were trying to be quiet, make a quick escape, or were they screaming? I couldn’t quite grasp the memory anymore. I fell down, did I lose my balance, or was I pushed? Did I get knocked out of the way? I couldn’t even remember why I needed to clear my he...

I Spot Trouble

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #41

Jenny was a fresh graduate from college, still looking for her full time dream job as a vet. She had a steady part time job as a pet store clerk, which she thought was enough for her to find herself a place to live. While house hunting, she realized she spent way to much on entertainment, and the only place she could really get was a basement. A rich snobbish middle aged couple lived there, and they had a son who was hardly home because he was working in the military. They were strict, and didn’t seem very nice, but they seemed to keep to th...

Hit

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #40

It looked like he was dead. Had they really hit him? Maybe he had already been dead and they just ran over him. Who were kidding? They definitely killed him. What were they going to do? “Guys...” Corbyn said looking dead straight from the middle back seat. He was shaking, making the others friends even more nervous then they had already been. Jade was so wide eyed, starting to hyperventilate it looked like she was about to pass out any second now. Kelly was covering her eyes, and Justin, the only calm one, who had fallen asleep when they got...

Blood Sisters

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #40

Me and Saddie were not blood sisters, but we should have been. Our mother’s met in kindergarten and they were said to be inseparable. Most people thought that they would be through with each other soon enough, but they never did. I just wish it was like that with me and Sadie. We were born on the same day, same hospital, rooms side by side. I’m sure we played together as babies, but the friendship didn’t sit well with us as we grew older, rather, it didn’t sit well with Saddie. I always looked up to our mother’s friendship. They were a...

Inseparable

Ivy Moonlit

Submitted to Contest #40

It was Kiya’s first day of kindergarten, a place she did not want to be. Especially after being at preschool. Her mother said she would be going to school and learning. Kiya did not want to learn, she wanted to play, and her mother just told her she would be doing that too. It was like her mother didn’t care about having fun. Kiya was so mad, she didn’t say a word to her mother that morning, she just hummed. Her father dropped her off, walked her right to her classroom, introduced her to her teacher and helped her find her seat. Kiya looked ...
