Love
The Moon Kissed Girl
The outside world was unknown to her, but she could see a glimpse of it through the window in his room. I would like to say that I have shown her only the beauty of this world. She does not know that I watch her every night and that I am the one that casts the magic of light and illusions into the night sky. Every day when the sun sets, I ensure that I am here waiting. I wait for her pale moon-kissed face to pop into the window's frame. Her eyes are stripped of color, along with her hair. Her skin is pale, and in the light of my magic, she shimmers like the crystals within the caves just a few miles from here. She is moon kissed. Unable to walk in the sun. At least, that is what I am told. I am also told that she is dangerous. I don’t see how; she never leaves the Master’s house. She seems more trapped than dangerous—a bird in a cage with no way to spread the wings given to them at birth.

I couldn't help but wonder if she always dressed that way for dates!

Cruel Summer
I watched her brown curls bounce on the shoulders of her pink tee, above the line of bra-strap which held what I most wanted. She was the biggest tease at our school, to the boys like me who were older than her, and younger ones like the only-just-teens who timidly watched her now as she proceeded down the high street.

Nanine
I suspected this might be a bad idea, I was already so anxious about it. I'd decided to go to a dance. Just possibly I was overdressed, and I was definitely clean! I’d scrubbed myself pink and my hair was tucked behind my ears, irritating. Unfortunately overcoming anxiety and nerves wasn’t so easy! I gulped down hard on both, then timidly decided myself and took my flutter off into the warm evening.
