I had dyed it blonde and brown. I decided I need a change. “How’s Tate?” Ashton looked at me while I was driving. “He’s on edge because of the baby, but he’s good. Brooklyn?” I smiled and he chuckled. “She’s 4 months,” It was all he needed to say. “You guys are having another fucking baby! Oh my gosh!” I squealed as my car came to a stop. Ashton blushed and felt my stomach. I felt her kicking. “Do you know yet?” He asked and I

Inexplicable pain... It was unbearably sad that she could relate and understand what Lauren Brennen was going through. Innocent though just as guilty as Ian. But she didn't care. No one cared for her when she was in this situation. No one care if she lived or dead. So she sat there and she witnessed this young woman get battered and beaten by her handsome accomplice. The more she watched, the less her heart ached for Lauren. The less she felt sorry for herself anymore. This was her reality. "This is what I had to go through Ian. And you and your friends watched as this happened to me. You're just as much a rapist as Cole is." Taking a deep breath in through her nose the smile returned to her face. Watching Kyle pull off what he promised... "You said it yourself, honey. An eye for an eye. You should definitely rape her." But listening to Kyle defend Azairah and what she'd been fighting for, for so long, what was haunting her and terrorized her for months... It was relief. It was like a huge weight lifted off her shoulders. Smiling like a school girl as Kyle blew her a kiss, she stood then, Ian's eyes watching carefully as she moved around him. "More fun than

The alarm clock blares on the tattered brown nightstand next to the bed. It is the only part of Casey Barclay’s day that is predictable. She opens her eyes and groans at the thought of what the day will hold. She hears her twins, Alexander and Abigail in the next room. They are eight, and already fighting over whose turn it is to hold the IPad, even though it’s only 6 a.m. She reaches over and turns the alarm clock off, her diamond engagement ring catches her eye as it does a little dance, sparkling in the sunlight. It is the most expensive thing in all of her house. It is also only the second thing that has given her hope in the nine years since the factory left, and it’s hard to have that after her last marriage failed so miserably. She

Ayla could not believe the anguish in Kailey’s voice. All she could remember was running out the room, passing by her mom, and somehow making her way downstairs to the black leather love seat where she lay curled up into a tight ball. Tears ran down her cheeks as she thought of Kailey’s words, “Get out and stay out!” While the words stung, Ayla was more hurt and embarrassed by the fact that Kailey’s friends were witness to the actions that lead to her running away from them. All she could think of was how she felt about Kailey as she blurted out between sobs, “I hate you Kailey… I hate you!”

Lilly glanced down the row of cars all parked up under the trees. A chill moved through her. She brought her knees up to her chest, pressed her thighs against her rib cage and let her head sink down. She needed to find a place to stay. She needed somewhere to sleep and she needed to be able to get ready tomorrow to make sure Bobby saw her looking hot again. Because he would kick himself once he saw her all made-up in a nice dress and nice shoes. He’d feel pretty dumb for avoiding her this last year over a stupid pair of flip-flops. But how was she going to be that girl who turned his head if she spent tonight sleeping rough? Lilly closed her eyes and tried not to let it upset her. Puffed up eyes was the last thing she

“yeah, yeah,’ smiled Abby. Abby was on her way. She was running a little late but it was okay Caleb would not care. Abby hopped into her black Mustang and headed for Caleb’s house. It was very stormy and hard to see much of the road. Abby drove very carefully. Caleb didn’t live more than fifteen miles away but to get to his house Abby still had to drive on the highway. After about fifteen minutes Marcus headed out in his mom’s car since Abby took the Mustang. The storm was getting worse now he then got a text. It was from Caleb and it said, “Are you guys coming?’ that scared Marcus. Abby should have almost been there. Marcus kept driving and was hoping Abby would make it. He looked down as he got another message but couldn’t open it until he passed the canyon. He drove past the canyon then looked at the text and it was from Caleb again. The text read, “Are you guys okay?’. This time Marcus replied, “Yes, Abby should be there any minute I will be there a little later.” It probably wasn’t the smartest idea for Marcus to be texting but he couldn’t help it he was way worried. Marcus was now driving really fast trying to get to Caleb’s. He would be able to see Abby along the road if she needed help or something. He drove and drove and couldn’t find her. Finally, he got to Caleb’s house. Abby still was not there. Marcus was freaking out. Caleb called him down. Then Marcus’ phone started ringing. “Hello” said Marcus. Caleb could hear Mrs.

She’d just done a 10 hour shift at the Barnes and Noble Starbucks, filling in for Jon who called her frantic, saying his sister was going into labor and he couldn’t come in, “couldyoupleasemaybefillinforme?” He said it just like that too; all jumbled together as if saying it quicker would trick her into saying yes. Luckily for Jon, unluckily for Brendon, she tended to have a soft spot for babies and she couldn’t say no even if it sent her day off into a dreamland. After stopping by the store to pick up some Capri Sun, her new addiction, she finally arrived at the loft, and watched her idea of getting into her comfiest sweats and slobbing around crumble. Sitting in her living room, guffawing with his eyes glued to the T.V. set was none other than the Ryan

“If you don’t come now, I’m running away and I’m taking frankenbean with me.” pressing send Grayson waited patiently for a reply, knowing that frankenbean was both of the girls teddy bear they had been sharing since they were 1 day old. As the minutes passed and the minute turned into hours everything started to feel like it was crashing down on her once more. Walking around the room Grayson ignored with her parents came to bring her food, she ignored when Derek and Savannah came to see if she’d watch hank. She ignored when (Ian) came to bring her, her paycheck from the last time she worked. She ignored when her father came back hours later to get to come out of her room. It was like couldn’t be around anymore, but she wanted her sister more than anything. Grabbing Frankenbean off the nightstand next to her bed she dressed him in a little pink tutu and a coat. Making a fake little sign it read “Bye Bye Kota.” taking a picture she sent it to Dakota’s phone knowing her sister was getting the messages 45 minutes had passed and still no reply “Kota!!! PLEASSSSE I need you!!!!” Grayson texted back once again wishing that her sister would just answer her. It had been a hard couple of days all she needed was for her sister to come and bring her good news. To bring her something in hopes that Grayson could stop living in fear that the man that did this to her would come back to finish the job. It was like Grayson was now just this job that everyone had to do because he had been a victim of a crime that she still couldn’t say. Even though she didn’t remember what happened to her she knew that it was bad. “I’m not joking, kota! Please answer me. I need you.” Grayson pleaded once more as tears began to well up in her eyes once more. Hearing the knock on her door she froze knowing that it was her parents again wanting her to eat something. But Grayson wasn’t hungry she wasn't anyone

It was a Friday night and Aspen and Maebelle were on there way to “The Jennings Halloween Bash”, only the biggest party of the whole year. “Is Landon going to be there?” asked Aspen. “I think so, why” replied Maebelle. Aspen grew silent and thought about her feelings for Landon, after all he probably doesn't feel the same. They were best friends, if she admitted her feelings and he didn’t feel the same, their bond would never be the same.

Right before Brun had time to sneak attack her, Amber spun around, grabbed Brun, and threw him on the ground. “Wow you can really use your senses now, cant you,” Brun asked Amber. “Well my parents are the alphas, so they make me work extra hard and train longer.” Brun and Amber where almost to Amber’s house when Aidan joined them, angrily. “Brother why are you angry this time,” Amber asked. “Why do you think, you two left me behind again.” “I had to chase after Amber, so do not get mad at me,” Brun said. “Fine, but you, stop leaving us behind,” Aidan said with a rough voice. “I am sorry but I had a rough day with the history exam.” Brun asked, “Oh, I forgot to ask how that went. So what happened?” Amber sighed and explained the whole story from how she did not finish her exam to why she did not finish her exam. It was quite for a few minutes. The only sound was that of the birds, and their

Cole browsed her movie collection. He wasn't ready for his time with Jordyn to come to an end, but he knew they would be over soon. After a few minutes, he realized he wasn't going to find anything but romantic comedies. He popped in a wedding comedy, and she curled up next to him on the sofa. He inhaled her coconut scented lotion as she draped a throw blanket over her legs. His mouth watered and not for the dessert he brought over. She smelled delicious. He still hadn't gotten more than a kiss on the cheek from Jordyn.
