The silence of the room is getting to Natalie. She turns on her portable speaker and a love song starts playing as the forward relaxes in the tub in the hotel room in Portugal. She closes her eyes and feels the tension leaving her body. "Scoot forward." Natalie opens her eyes and scoots forward. The presence of another body is felt along hers. The familiar touch of her girlfriend’s and she leans back into her favorite goalkeeper’s body. "Excited for your first CAP?" Natalie asked. "I am. It’s

The new coach seemed quite peculiar‚ and it wasn’t because of his third eye. Some might say it was the way he spoke‚ like a machine‚ or maybe it was his eye color. However‚ if I looked at him closely enough‚ he almost looked like Donkey from that movie with the ogre guy. Y’know the one that asks‚ “Why are you in my swamp?” Yeah. Him. Besides that‚ he might be an ogre himself. I’m not acting paranoid if that’s what you’re thinking. Of course‚ I’m not! Maybe we’ll never know what’s behind his fake

Everything was in shambles. Our safe house was raided and burned once we arrived. Dead heads were everywhere surrounding our crops‚ houses‚ and even the shop. Blood Curdling screams were heard throughout the camp‚organs and brain matter was scattered across concrete walkways. I stepped over a little doll covered in rotting flesh and blood. “Poor thing” I thought to myself. What horrible person would do this to a neighbouring camp‚ especially one with several small‚ frail‚ children? My stomach curled

A breeze fluttered through the cool and crisp night as my sisters group of friends were about to play manhunt‚ a favorite game of theirs. They had heard stories of how the trees would move in the night‚ but of course‚ it seemed so unrealistic‚ who would believe that?

This night Charlene‚ Andie‚ Everly‚ Rebel‚ and Lauren were going to meet at the

I remember months ago up until this day me hanging out with my friends at school during lunch hour. The air smelled sweet and the smell always made me think of going to school every day‚ and the floor felt smooth. We were in the wedge. It had green walls and a blackish floor. The cafeteria we were in had a stairwell and a window that allowed you to see over the entire cafeteria. A lot of my friends do things they shouldn’t every day. They have peer pressured me to do it with them. Months ago I had

As I loaded my worn out rifle‚ I heard the sounds of war. The bang of the cannon‚ the frightened shouts of soldiers‚ the loud pop of their hand guns‚ the whirring and screeching sound the fighter planes produced and the crunch of gravel beneath both friend and foe’s battered boots . I took my time inserting the deadly explosives onto my belt‚ careful not to blow myself and every person preparing for war‚ into pieces. The only thought on my mind was whether or not I would see my home again. As soon

As the sun slowly settled‚gdarkness began to overcome the Earth. Sickness had come. The sickness slowly but readily crept into each home. It was the Midnight Theft. The destructive plague stole during midnight—it stole lives. Deep in the heart of Galich‚ people were dying‚ and the whole country was beginning to perish. The flowers withered as they bloomed. The mountain peaks crumbled under viscous weight. Animals fled to holes to live out the final moments of their life. People were distraught‚ and

אהוב שלי (my love)‚ I didn’t know what to expect. I had so many worries about this trip. About us. I was worried we might not be right for each other. I worried that as sometimes we tend to be like a hurricane and a tornado‚ we might leave wreckage behind us in the shape of broken hearts. I was worried this might explode‚ prepping myself up for it even‚ as a coping mechanism. I was worried we’ve gotten carried away with an idea. I’ve been hurt before‚ I’ve been scared before‚ I’ve fallen apart

• Charlie’s friend Howard notices she is upset about something and asks what’s wrong. She refuses to say anything‚ and he explains‚ “My mama says you should never keep your troubles to yourself. She says if you share ‘em with somebody‚ they get smaller” (p. 47). This reminds me of my own family. I talk on the phone with either my mother or sister every other day. They live several hours away‚ but always make time to talk on the phone. They are my lifelines‚ the ones I share my troubles and ask for
