I’m quite strange and like writing things that make me uncomfortable but if I’m able to evoke some sort of emotion out of my audience, whether comfortable or not, Ive succeeded.

“He is in no way fit to work this job.”
I stood in the back while they spoke about my qualifications. Instead of arguing, it was simpler just to show off, at least a little.
“Your rose bush. The rose at the very top as a petal falling off. It’ll look nicer if you take it off or I could take care of it for you?” Without waiting for an answer I take out my gun and spin it around two of my fingers ...
It definitely wasn’t the person sitting at the other side of the table that was making this date suck. It sucked because all we could hear were people blowing their noses. Dates during the spring are the worst and apparently everyone in the cafe had seasonal allergies. My immune system being weak didn’t help my lack of comfortability here. It just paired perfectly with the orchestral music caused ...
I settled into the new room and noticed my roommate had already decorated his half. As long as he wasn’t a space invader, we’d probably get along fine. I say that now but then I noticed a familiar poster on his wall. A poster of the Beatles walking on the crosswalk. This was the poster of someone from high school. He had it in his locker with a sticker over John Lennon’s face like this one. My hig...
“I was just trying to be what you wanted me to be…Cole I don’t think this- works…we tried”
“I can’t lose you! I won’t!” Cole’s eyes began to get red and his hair set aflame. The more worked up he got, the more he heated up. Quilo sighed deeply. He loved Cole so much but he knew he’d hurt Cole if he got too close. He couldn’t control his abilities yet and he could freeze Cole.
“We can’t…” A tear s...
“So who’s going to die today?” I smirk and hold both rugged boys by their necks. I could crush them like this in an instant, but I was like then once. The older of the two spit in my face and the younger looked terrified. His eyes welled up with tears. “Dying at the hands of the most unsettling lady in town would be so embarrassing wouldn’t it?” I grinned although I couldn’t see them. I gave one m...
We piled into the auditorium with loud chatter filling the room. We only assumed it was another assembly about saying no to drugs or cyber bulling, not that anyone listened to them anyway. The teachers seemed more quiet this time and there was an odd tension in the room. The chatter of my peers didn’t stop though until the principal stood on the stage with the dented microphone. This wasn’t ordina...
I remember that summer. It was late August to early September. I flopped on my back on my bed and smiled at a thought. What if I dated that sweet kid I met online from Minnesota? I say kid loosely, we’re only a few months apart. How crazy would it be if we actually _clicked_ like that? I smile now thinking about them. I asked my best friend if it sounds like I like them. I wondered what a life wit...
The nightmares started when Nikta left the kingdom. She left me and I wish I could get her back more than anything. I wish I could fix what I must’ve done, but it seems no use. She’s been gone five years now with not a letter back. I’m wasting away but I can’t bring myself to drag myself out of my room. Now the nightmares won’t stop. In every one I see her leave or get upset with me. I’ve used eve...
