Guilty Pleasure
"How does that make you feel?" Fuck I hate those words. I don't see how shrinks are supposed to help people; bunch of overpaid assholes if you ask me. Of course, they don't ask me anything other than, "How are you feeling today?" and "Lets talk about...
An Applauding Transformation
"Next please!" the lady at the desk said I was third in a big line-up of people who wanted to be the schools new mascot. Our school's sports team is The Middleton Junior High Wolves, my friend Ted had always teased me about how I should join a...
Suppression
To my mother, Who loved me unconditionally no matter who (or what) I turned out to be. Ah, the trip to the doctors office. Many fear the doctors more than they fear a dentist, but not me. I have seen the inside of an OR so many times it cracks me...
Waves
"Hawaii?" I asked into the tiny camera, "What's in Hawaii?" "Are you serious?" the slightly tinny voice replied back, "Only some of the best beaches in the world!" I gave the lens a questioning glance, "That's it? I thought the Hamptons would have...
Gemini Pt1 Sal
Gemini Nicholas Scribetail Part 1: Sal Intro Gasping breaths slowed to gentle sighs as the person rolled off of me and to my side, breath still hot against my cheek. My own breathing was beginning to fade back to normal and my eyes slowly...
The Choice
Field trips were my favorite part of junior high school. Didn't matter if it was 10 minutes or 2 hours away, it was a chance to get out of doing work. Sure there was some work to be done once we got back, but this particular field trip was an over...
Humanity Gone
Waking up has always been a chore for me. Especially since I have been dreaming a lot. I can remember the times when I enjoyed thinking about my dreams, but the memories are too painful. I already knew what this one meant; it meant I would have to...
Too Ordinary
I stood there for the better part of five minutes, half admiring him, half scoping him out. I couldn't get it through my head why, why have I been cursed with my fathers creeping abilities. For whatever reason he was good at sneaking around the house,...
Fire
It was a very cold day in January. Despite the cold outdoors it was nice and warm in the third floor of the school. For whatever reason I had noticed that while the algebra classes were very warm year round, all other classes were kept very cold. Even...
A Real Friend
Max stared up at the starlit sky with his green eyes. His parents would be extremely mad if he was caught outside this late, but it was too dark for anyone to see him out on the roof. Max had just moved and didn't have any friends to hang out with or...
Lonely Christmas
Why do all of the rotten things happen to me? I thought that it was the other way around. 'Do good and good things will come to you,' yeah, Bull. I hold the door for someone; the next person slams it in my face. I give someone lunch money, I don't...
Sibling Transformations
This was the day, my life changed forever. It all started on Sunday night, when I was walking home from a late-night baseball game with my friends. It was dark, and warm. My brown hair was kept out of my face by the light breeze. I was panting and...
