Love

The Gift Shop
I don’t know why I am like this. Today, at work – I work at ‘The Shack: Gifts and Apparel’ in Anchorage - I was arranging a new display in the window. Teddy, our taxidermy beaver, was getting a fresh fair isle sweater and matching beanie that I finished knitting just last night to wear when a man entered the store.

Memories of Kerry, Chapter Two
Wow, underpants sure came in bright colours these days! I stood and gawped, dumb with envy as the three boys stripped out of their clothes and splashed about in the fountain. Bright green, and bright blue...! And all my underwear was white, I thought jealously. How I longed for a dark-blue pair like the third boy's, I'd feel so grown-up.

Memories of Kerry, Chapter One
Of all the people to bump into at the corner-shop! I'd only gone there because I was furious and needed to calm down. Still, a cheeky smile from Kerry would have cheered anyone up. She was wearing her hair in bunches, and her turquoise top had a hole in it through which you could see her pink bra. Of course, I couldn't help fidgeting over this. Meanwhile, though the first thing she remarked upon was how my choice of clothing hadn't changed!

Dinner by Candlelight
The sun is just setting as the table is laid. Two places are set with special plates, cutlery, and glassware, brought from their cupboard only on this one, special Night of the year.

Into the Phantom Zone
I was still fuming at my girlfriend later that night when I was alone in my room. Eventually though my boy-hormones began to simmer down, and I started to think instead of the new girl. It was a bit more comfortable doing so in my smelly sleeping-pants than it had been in regular underwear, so I stood weakly with my eyes shut and sighed hard, just letting it happen.

Supergirl and the New Girl
"I know I'm not supposed to," I began to my girlfriend, a little breathy and anxious, while carrying her books to the library for her. "But, um, it would be such a help if I could every now and then. Just so I'd be less flustered in gym and maybe get a bit better at it, I mean."

Not so Super
My new girlfriend could be such a pain sometimes. Like when she came round without telling me, when I was still in my PJs, even though she knew it would embarrass me!

Planet Tetro ~ Page 49
I was waiting on a moment for him to become very aggressive . As he kept his stream up for longer than usual . I felt like it was my perfect time to strike . Time to use the opportunity that the shaman gave me . So I aimed with all of my focus where I thought that he would move to . I shot my electricity that I stored up at his stream which sent the electricity flowing through his water . The electricity then traveled into his mouth and throughout his entire body .

Memories of Sonia
I was in the library at a computer because there was something I wanted to do. Something which in truth I'd been feeling indignant about ever since school.

William’s POV I make my way around the room Mina’s arm wrapped around mine, my father stood in the far corner watchin, he’s always watching. we go about greeting the guests, “congradulations.” They keep saying, I want to tell them not to say that but I can’t tell why. I eyed the food on the left side of the room and tried to move Mina towards that way, “I want to dance.” Mina moaned tugging on my arm, until I felt a hand on my other arm, I look to find Mae holding onto me. “Come with me.” she said with authority. I pull away from Mina and lean down to whisper in her ear “I’ll dance with you after, for now my little sister needs me.” I said going along with Mae. She pulled me to the right side of the room where the drinks are and handed me something pink and sparkly. She leaned up and whispered in my ear “this will help you remember.” I wasn’t sure what she meant but I took a sip anyway, I knew that whatever she meant it must have been important. she Grabbed my arm and pulled me farther back toward the wall where a woman was standing, she was beautiful. She reminded me of someone but I couldn’t quite out my finger on who. She was standing next to the wall, her hands behind her back I walked over and extended my hand, “hello, I’m William.” I watched her chew on her lip for a moment then she took my hand and smiled softly “Chloe, congratulations by the way…she’s….beautiful.” I blinked for a moment thinking of who she could mean, my mind was so fuzzy I couldn’t really remember what was going on. “well, it’s a long story.” I replied, feeling my heart speed up. There was something about her, I couldn’t put my finger on it but I knew I didn’t want to leave her. “Would you like to dance?” I asked still holding onto her hand. “…yes?” She said half asking, she followed me onto the dance floor then I turned to her and put my free hand on her lower back and we swayed in union.

William’s POV I awoke with a jolt, im No longer tied down to the table, instead I’m sitting upright in a chair. The two men from before are towering over me, ”I said wake up” the one on the left said he glared down at me, this was the first time I saw these two men. the one on the left had dark brown eyes and short brown hair. The one on the right was blond with brown eyes, his hair falling into his face. “What does he want?” I asked as I sat up slowly and eyed both of them “the ball is in an hour it’s time to get ready.” They said as they turned and started walking away, I stood up slowly noticing the stabbing pain in my right side. must have been where I felt the jolt that woke me up, I look around and notice a black suit hung in the far corner of the room, right next to a picture of Mina. I stared at the picture and felt a small pain in my heart, I don’t understand why I feel that way but it hurt. I grabbed the hanger and moved back toward the chair, where my father was now sitting. “Where did you come from?” I asked “I just came in, thought you could use a bit of a pep talk” my father grinned as he said this and my stomach turned. “I don’t need you.” I replied pulling my shirt off. “Are you ready for tonight?” he asked standing up “to announce the engagement? no.” I said looking at him, “ I’ll let you get ready then.” He stated turning to leave.
