Too Little

“Sometimes I don’t even believe that you’re an adventurer.” Lee said. “It feels barely possible for you to climb a wall full of deadly snakes.” I looked up, smirking. “Maybe you’re just too jealous that I’m more confident than you.” His only answer was an eye roll and a little kick off the dusty ground. “Jealous?” “Why would I be jealous of a shorty?” I stood there, about to hit him with a big Glo...

Insulted By A King

**_(This is pretty terrible, I just had an idea and kinda failed to excecute it but here it is anyway!)_**


“You insolent, half-witted peasant, stumbling through the alleys like a beheaded rat who thinks they own this kingdom!” The king spat down at me from his thrown, rage rising to his cheeks.


I flinched. I honestly wasn’t really used to being insulted by royalty. I’m not really used to being c...

Love And Chaos

“Oh you egotistical, overgrown, pineapple head. Just what I exactly are you thinking? I didn’t ask for you to step in I had it handled.”...

Snow Season

Kai, age 16



“You jerk!”

I yelled at Benny , but I couldn’t keep the laugh out of my voice.

“Many things I am dear, but that I am not! “ he answers in a terrible attempt at a British accent.

We were ice skating for the day, trying to pass the time before the annual hockey tournament comes, in which Benny himself would be playing in. He glides over on his skates to help me up from a pil...

Don’t Hide In Bushes (Seriously Don’t)

“You stare like the word ‘concerning’ was embedded into your shin at an early age.”


“Very funny, Ash.” I turned, annoyed, shifting my gaze away from the one person I could never muster the courage to talk to. My throat was dry as I swallowed.


She responded with a playful nudge, taking a few more steps and crouching down beside me. I sighed as she began speaking. “You know, there’s better ways ...

Plus One

“Look, I know five annoying people, and you are four of them.” He said coolly.


Mia scoffed, her eyes rolling painfully far into her skull. She probably should have taken a deep breath, but she took a moment to silently curse her brother instead.


And herself.


She never should have agreed to attend his stupid party, but she _definitely_ shouldn’t have agreed to be a plus one for Mr. Hot-and-Un...

Throwing Darts

“You couldn’t hit water if you fell out of a boat.”


The woman in front of me tries once again to hit the dart board on the wall. I watch as the dart sails through the air, spins lazily, and plants itself into the wall three feet to the left of the target with a dull thunk.


She sighs and plants her hands on her hips, spinning around to face me. Her hair is yanked into a ponytail so tight her eyeb...

Break Up

“You make me wish I liked women!” Elaina shouts, the words spitting out of her mouth before she is sure they even make sense. Her feet carry her closer to the front door, through the kitchen, but his voice stops her and makes her turn around.


“Do you?” Derek replies. His voice is bellowing, shaking the house with every syllable.


“Maybe now I do,” Elaina shoots back, even knowing it’s a lie. Whi...

Taloola

Buck leaned against the hood of his old ford and looked at Chuck as if to say ‘Dumb ass’ “I swear Chuck, you can be as dumb as shit pie at a picnic.” Chuck at least had the decency to at look like he was sorry. “I just don’t get it boy. How the hell does this shit keep happening to you?”

Chuck finally looked up, “Oh come on buck, twernt my fault this time. If Suzy had shut the gate like she was ...

Road.

"Hey. You stare too hard. By the looks of it, you might as well have a vendetta against the past ten miles of asphalt."


Lloyd didn't lift his gaze off the road ahead, although the cleverness of my remark briefly lifted my spirit. My eyes wander around aimlessly, desperate to find anything more interesting than the empty stretch of highway that lies ahead.


I only see shriveled-up bushes lining ...
