  The Girl In The Water Once upon a time, in a Kingdom near the ocean. There lived a young prince, named Riley. He was tall, tan, had long curly hair, brown eyes, and always dressed untraditionally. Riley also had a passion for music, and would often go down to the shore to play their guitar. Then after he would play, Riley would jump into the ocean and swim. For they had always loved the water, when he was a child they're parents couldn't keep him out of it. They had always warned him about the dangerous creatures lurking in the water, specifically mermaids. Riley's parents always said how mermaids would pull people who swam in their oceans down into the bottom where they drowned them. But Riley didn't believe that, for he couldn't understand how such beautiful and magnificent creatures could be bad. Riley would even collect the treasures the mermaids would leave behind, like sea glass, and shells. But now that Riley was of age to be the next king, there was pressu...

  The Nightmare "no please, don't!" I felt like I was stuck, this shadowy figure was coming closer and had a knife raised. My boyfriend got in front of me, trying to protect me. "don't come any closer, or I'll kill you!" my boyfriend yelled at the figure. "I won't let you hurt her!" The figure kept coming closer, I was scared to death. The figure took a swing, and cut my boyfriend's face. It went in for another attack, and cut their arm. "no please stop!" I said getting in front of my love. "baby stay back" he said trying to knock the knife out of the figures hand. It took one more swing, almost hitting me. But when I didn't feel anything I opened my eyes to see the shadowy figure was gone, but my boyfriend was lying on the ground. Blood was everywhere, he was breathing heavy. "noooo, babe please be ok, please!" I cried out, I felt a light shake. "baby, wake up, it's ok" I sat up in bed wi...

  Couple Gets Their First Dog I had gone for the nicest walk while my boyfriend took a nap, and when I came home I thought of a great idea! I ran over to the couch, and shook my boyfriend awake. "babe, babe, I had the best idea! We should get a dog!" I said excitedly. "ok baby we can get a dog." I was so happy I squealed and imediately went online to look for puppies! I was scrolling for awhile, when I eventually found one! I showed my boyfriend, "aww he's perfect baby" I told the shelter that we wanted him, and went to go pick him up! He was a little french bulldog puppy, black and white fur, and had a little pink on his nose! When we got to the shelter, it was love at first sight! He snuggled right up to me, "I love you already" I said to our new fur baby. I handed him off to my boyfriend, who also was in awe of our little guy. "what should we name him?" We both thought about it, and decided on Cyrus. We got our little guy a new c...

  The Stranger in the Woods It all happened so fast, I was walking home from work one night. It was a late shift at the coffee shop, I had just gotten off and was making my way toward my apartment. As I was walking down the street, I couldn't help but feel like I was being watched. I heard something in the distance, and turned around. But there was nothing there, so I kept walking. I came across the woods and decided to take a short cut through them. The woods was always a spooky place, I dreaded going in them before, but I was tired and wanted the quickest way home as possible. As I wondered deeper into the dark woods, I heard a sound like a twig snapping. I jumped and turned around to see what it was, but again there was nothing there. I was really scared now and started running, but what I didn't know was that something was running after me... The next day I didn't get much sleep that night, I was on edge from what happened in the woods. Even though I never saw anything ...

  I'll Take Care Of You Hey everybody, I haven't been feeling well. It's physical this time instead of emotional, I hate being sick it freaking sucks! So I thought I would write a little sick story. So sit back, relax, and enjoy.  It was a typical summer morning, or so I thought. I was in bed with my girl, who was still asleep next to me. "she's so beautiful" I thought to myself. I gently moved her hair away from her face, and caressed her cheek. I frowned when I felt how warm she was, and placed my hand on her forehead. I think she had a fever. I gently started to shake her, trying to wake her up. "baby, can you wake up for me?" I asked softly. She groaned and pulled the covers closer to her. "please baby, come on" Eventually she opened those beautiful eyes of hers, and I saw how horrible she was feeling. "I don't feel well babe" she said with pain in her voice. "aww my poor baby" I pulled her to me and softly strok...

  Alone (I just really need to write something right now) They were all gone, everyone I ever knew. I woke up and they weren't there, I don't know where they went. I looked at the kitchen table, it's oak wood finish beckoning me towards it. There was a note, it said We've left you because you're a problem, you're annoying, and weird, all you do is bother people. I felt the tears fall instantly, how could they do this to me? Then I started thinking, maybe they're right, maybe I deserve to be alone. I ran back upstairs to my room to pack a few things, then I too left. I had a little money to get a cab to the airport, and just enough left for a plane ticket. I didn't know for where, I just didn't want to be there anymore. On the plane ride, I looked at all the happy people with their families, friends, and significant others. I cried again, I felt horrible because the one person I thought would never leave me left me. He was amazing, love of my life, bu...

  A Day in The Life of Lily Ugh another morning where I need help getting off the bed! For once I wish I could get myself out of bed, but I'm too little. The next part of my routine is going downstairs for breakfast, which I don't always eat right away. But it's still nice of my parents to feed me and my brother. Oh I haven't introduced myself yet, hi my name is Lily! This is a look into my daily routine, I'm very low to the ground so everything looks huge to me. My parents, my brother, the kids, everything is taller than me! But I digress, since I don't always eat right away that gives me time to bug my brother who is usually sleeping. (he's always so tired in the morning) And he's grumpy but I still love him, after he growls at me I start to bug mom for attention. She's always super busy, I just wanna cuddle with her! I give her my best please face, hoping she gives in. If she does, then I snuggle under a bunch of blankets on the couch. I like to b...
