Hi everyone! This is an important message to inspire and motivate. First line. YOU ARE AMAZING! No matter what haters say, haters gonna hate. You will shine like a star when the day comes. Love yourself and don't listen to the haters. Walk away from them, and don't look back. Next bit. When you shine, you inspire others. Make your light so bright the haters can't see. All the good people will be friends, and the haters just hate. (Sorry for using haters too much. it just conveys it.) I give my love to all of you. If you need help, just ask a...
No matter how many times she does it, I always say it’s fine. My little sister’s just upset about this that and the other. Or how Dad just had to leave on deployment. I try to see her perspective. I’m six years old. My dad just left, and didn’t come back. No matter what she breaks, I still love her.It’s been three months now. My sister is more calm now, but I sometimes come in to tuck her in and find her crying. Every time I sit next to her and hold her in my arms. She needs her sister. She needs someone to be there since Mom is working all ...

Today would be the day. I, Leland Caraway, being sound of mind and body, will ask Tiffany Halls to the school dance. She’s in the drama club, but never notices me. Today will change that. Hopefully. Maybe I hate Mondays. Every week I wake up hoping to smell pancakes cooking, to hear my dad laughing with my brothers. But I don’t. I wake up remembering that dad’s away, off in some foreign country. I miss him a lot. So Mondays suck. At least I have drama. She stood me up! That was the thought that struck my mind. My bestest friend in all of...
"What!" That was me protesting the sentencing. The old guy ignored me and continued. “Three pack members were kidnapped in the middle of the night. The same day that Miss Holly Swift rejoined our people. My conclusion is that she bewitched them and took them away for her own nefarious purposes.” Conner protested. “That’s stupid. She was in her cabin the whole night. I slept in a tree nearby. I would have heard if she made any noises.” I was too shocked to even feel a little weirded out. I just stared blankly at nothing. What the heck! I bare...
That day changed my life. It was a normal day for me. I went to work, served about a million people, and came home. It was normal. The only not normal thing was him. That started the reaction. He was about 23, with gorgeous sage green eyes that pierced my soul. His chocolate brown hair was wild, like he had been at the beach earlier and let the winds style it. He looked at me but it wasn’t really friendly. It was an I can see right through you look. I just went over and took his order like a normal person. When I got home, I just threw my st...

Things always happen. Coincidences happen to, but this time it was no coincidence everything went wrong on one day. I nearly got fired, my guy ran off with my BFF, and a car nearly ran me over. So I went into work, and my boss was in a really bad mood. I got one complaint saying “My Frappuccino was too cold.” My boss would have fired me if my work friend hadn’t stepped in. I got home, and I found my best friend being all kissy face with my guy. They ran out, and I wept for an hour straight. When I went for a walk to clear my head. As I cross...
My sister was an optimist to the core, and everyone loved her. I was a shy, quiet girl, while Marisa stood out. I always wanted to know where I fit, but Marisa fit everywhere, with anyone. Her only flaw was that she could be a bit stuck up, and teased me for years. I still loved her with all my heart. To be absolutely honest, I was jealous of her. She was a perfect girl who fit in the right spot, and I was a circle trying to fit in the square hole. The one place I outshone her was my art. I painted masterpieces, and she was a social butterfl...
Last night, I had a dream. Not a normal weird dream, but one with total body control and a thought process. That alone should warn everyone this is a weird story. So I was in my school, and I was leaving science, which was weird because I was a new kid and had only seen my school once. This guy walks up to me and introduces himself as Nathaniel Ramirez. He asked to talk with me so I stepped to the side. He grabbed my arm and told me he needed my help. I struggled to get away, but we dissolved into shadows. After what felt like an eternity, w...

I was walking with my sister when we passed a house. My head throbbed, as I flew into a memory. I was 17, walking past the same house with my mom, watching the houses as we passed them. All of a sudden my mom stopped. I was confused. Why were we stopping? Then I saw it. There was a tear of light. I could hear the clashing of metal. Then I raced back to the present. No! I needed that memory! My eyes fluttered open, and I was laying in bed with a cold towel draped on my forehead. My brother and his sons were sitting beside my bed. I sat ...
Shady Pines has one street that is very quiet. Cars rarely drive by. Kids don't play in the street near one house in particular. Old Man Henry's house. He never leaves the house, and all his food is delivered right to his door. He sits in the window, staring into the street, waiting for a kid to go on his lawn. Then he flies through the wall, grabs the kid, and takes them into the house, where he eats them. And the house is haunted by a whole bunch of ghosts. At least, that's what my neighbor Kay Alfred says. He always tells tall tales, tryi...
