Weight . Content Warning.
The night was thick with the smell of rain, wet pavement, and the metallic scent of blood that clung to the air like a fog. Naomi’s vision was a fractured kaleidoscope of lights—red and blue flashing in an endless loop, the sound of sirens filling her ears. She couldn’t make sense of it, not yet. Her head felt too heavy, the weight of it like a stone lodged between her temples. A sharp pain knifed through her chest as she struggled to inhale, the tightness of her seatbelt digging into her body, but there was no escape.

Old Enough; Clara's Side
*To read this series from the beginning click here!* I watched as Aunt Pearl's taxicab pulled away from the curb and although I acted as if I was annoyed cousin Jolly was left home with me for the day, deep down I knew he might be needed. Truth is my bark is worse than my bite as they say; I ain't never bit nobody although I could give Jolly a good pinch now and then to calm his jumping bean bee-hind down. Letting Jolly into me and May's secret plans was a big to-do. How was I ever gonna trust his big ole mouth from blabbing away about me breaking the biggest rule ever: that being, never-ever-whatsoever go wandering down to Yonderville where white people dwelled. And second to that, never-ever-whatsoever hang around the train tracks.

Chapter 1: The Return of the Memories The wind whispered across the hills when Clara awoke. The air was fresh, and the city around her seemed unchanged, but something inside her was different.

It wasn't just the landscape that seemed renewed, but Clara also felt as if she had been transformed.

Welcome to Modish Wear (Chapter 2)
"We need to talk" was never a good sentence to hear. It either meant someone was breaking up with you or, in Nick's case, you were in trouble. Nick sat inside the office, waiting for Victoria to return. She had to tell the rest of the morning staff coming in where they were going to be stationed. When the office door was closed, the office resembled what Nick believed the North Pole felt like: a holly jolly, frozen hell.
