felt her tears dropping on my forehead..., I took off my mask and she didn’t die..., I then heard her

Tears streamed down my face as her Jade green eyes were closing I practically screamed: “No Amelia look at me, look here damn it.” Amelia let out one long and shaky final breath and then she was gone.

I gave her a hug and a soft kiss on the cheek which caused her to catch her breath. I then turned and slowly left. As I opened the door I looked back and had a long look at her. I could feel hope, as well as calmness in the “MAGIC” and because I hadn’t felt that for a long time, I felt comforted. I was hoping she felt my optimism for us too. She was still sitting sideways in her chair staring at me as her fingers were caressing the spot where I gave her the kiss. I noticed the familiar little smile she used to have was back, so I smiled back, blew her a kiss. I then

"It's okay. We still have a lot to learn about each other, we'll know one another well enough to not make it weird. Anyways, I had a really nice time tonight, cupcake."

That chance at contentment hath been relinquished, lost in thine intemperate ambition. If the desire which resides within thy heart yearns so strongly to sit upon the throne, then take it. Thy bloody hands have seized this crown from my almost lifeless hands, now empty and without the water of life. That ambition within thy heart shall surely send thee into a unwarranted path of destruction. Thou shalt forever have to watch thy own back, in fear of backstabbers and cowards, just like thyself.

When ever she made bubbles in the water, it would cheer me up right away. One time I thought she was dead since she was lying on the pebbles, but once I threw in some food, she was back up and running. That happiness didn’t last forever, though. The smoke alarm went of in my cozy cabin one night and I saw a fire crawling towards me through the window. Calmly and quickly, I put on some shorts and grabbed my emergency bag from the closet. I was about to leave when I forgot about Qura. I can’t carry a fish bowl and run at the same time, but I couldn’t let my best friend die either. I knew what I had to do. I dropped everything by the door and picked up the fish bowl. I carried it outside towards the creek and dumped it in. The pebbles sank with the scuba diver, but the castle bounced onto the river bank. Qura swam right out and into the stream. The rapids pushed her along before I could say goodbye.

Do you want to know how I became king? Well i’m going to tell you anyways. So what my story is was I was shopping for some turkey for my family we had less

She had a way of leaving devastation in her wake, a way of getting everyone around her into trouble. Even though, she always made everything seem so fun. Occasionally though, she'd slip up, she'd tell you something you shouldn't know. These slights of tongue, as she called them, only ever occurred around me. It was as if she wanted me to see a part of her no one else did. To put it differently, her absurdness, while transient, was hard to notice and easy to misread as anything but what it really was. She was more than that though. She wasn't just the girl with pale hair and bright eyes who had made me love her after only a month, she was evanescent in nature, almost like a dream, in her own way she was a phantasmagoria, but I didn't have a fever and she was as real as I

“You bet you do, young lady. And know from now on that your Aunt Anna and I expect you at our house every holiday and other times in between. Since we could never have children, we always thought of you and Tacy as our half ours. That’s why we spent every Christmas and summer vacations at your house. We wanted time with you girls to watch you learn to play tennis and see your school plays. Your parents liked that we thought of you as half ours because they knew we were first in line to help with you any time they needed us. And now you are all ours if you agree.” He hugged Lacy and left the

“I wish I could say it was short lived, but it goes on for days and if the Mate is not in good health she may not make the transfer to Fay.” Rae looked at him and noticed he had glanced at her mother. “What do you mean transfer to Fay?” River looked at her with so much sadness. “Yes, that was another of Saint Valentine’s little tricks. The Mate along with her new markings will also grow wings they grow out of her back right next to the shoulder bone. The wings are beautiful and are a golden color, the same as the markings on the face and forearms, but they serve no purpose. Some theorize that their beauty holds the eye of the

"Well, I obviously remembered a lot from the party, it was the night of many firsts-" She laughed a little bit, looking up at me, "It was the first time I was drunk, the first time I smoked weed, really my first party, and it was my first time having sex-" I widened my eyes, not realizing that I took her virginity, "I don 't know, I just didn 't want to give up. I feel like every girl who talks to you just gives up. And I can 't deny that you 're attractive, I don 't know, I don 't know if I had a crush on you at first, but it definitely turned into that. It was almost like you challenged me to try and get you to let me be your friend, so I made that my

After the search in the castle was over and nothing was found, King called an assembly of knights. He told his four most noble knights to go and search far and wide for his little princess. The knights accepted the task and were soon off.

Anyway, I left in the morning before the king came in to check on her. While I was at home I started to do a little jig while thinking of the treasures I could get if she has to spin more. I later returned to the castle like I normally do walking in the corridor looking around when I hear sobs again. I go back to the room the miller's daughter was in before, and lo and behold there she was crying again.

“Well, it’s good to know that someone’s stayed the same,” I muttered under my breath, inhaling slowly and readjusting my position to face her.
