Famous Last Words

“Got any last words?” The barrel of a .45 desert eagle pointed at the center of my eyebrows. The sweat that ran down my forehead could touch it. The words were a mere echo mixed in the jumble of thoughts that ran rampant in my head. Visions of my life were that of a blink, only stopping at certain ones for a few short seconds before moving onto the next one.


I saw my mom, my dad, and all my brot...

The Fog

It was dark.


It was quiet.


I was leading my soldiers through the fog. We were ever so slowly making our way toward the enemy. We had split up earlier and were planning on ambushing them from the north and the south, but we lost contact with our teammates.


The fog was too thick.


We slowly trekked through the forest, past some tall standing trees and others that had fallen to time, weather, or...

No S-word

“Okay, then leave!”, I scream at him. Nick looks at me angry and shocked. He grabs his bag. “Okay, call me if you calmed down.” “I AM CALM!” He shakes his head and leaves my dorm room. I feel like I got punched in the stomach. Why was he acting like that? Nick never acted like that. He always assured me that I don’t have to be concerned when I saw others flirting with him.

Assumptions

“I trusted you!” I yell. “Why?” My voice lowers a few pitches and tears begin to roll down my face. “Just why?” I don’t even give her a chance to respond before I turn around and walk out. Yesterday my best friend, my sister in everything but blood, betrayed me. 

This story started a few months back when I developed a crush on a guy in one of my classes. Charlie’s a junior, a year older than us. O...
