Nicki 's POV As his head was coming up Lani walked in "I hope I wasn 't intruding on anything but its time for dessert" he said and then rolled his eyes while walking off. I giggled "Well thank you" I said to Drake blushing awfully hard, my panties were soaked his kisses turned me on, I knew he was just trying to be sweet, it was innocent. "Your welcome, well before we go out there can I get your number ?" He asked "Yeah no problem" I said taking his phone and entering my number As we got…

and his eyes were almost a grey they had a slight tint of blue. They were the color of someone 's emotion while dealing with the grief of their loved one. The one thing I found odd is the fact the devil wears glasses. They were rectangular frames large on his face. They only magnified his amazing eyes. " I don 't want it," I stared into his eyes. They were gorgeous. He staggered back as if I had punched him in the stomach. He looked as if he couldn’t catch his breath. At first he couldn’t form…

I believe that people in life-or-death situations should be held accountable for their actions. The cause of the person being in these situations is usually their fault, although sometimes it is not. There are many situations that a person in a life or death situation should be held accountable for their actions. One scenario is in “The Seventh Man” when K and his friend chose to go out to the water in the middle of a storm. That situation was completely on them and they had the choice of…

street and having dead bodies around the corner. There was no more room for graves so they ended up just taking the piled up bodies and tossed them in a giant hole and added a small layer of dirt over the top. There wasn't even priests to say prayers for the people, and even if there were we couldn't say prayers to everyone because literally half of london even was wiped out. When I was walking in the poor side of town, all the sudden this inhuman screech makes me jump. I creep along the side…

I shove my headphones into my ears and turn up the song I 'm obsessed with, Tainted Love by Marilyn Manson. I light another cigarette then neared off to the park where I can be alone. ~ I push the snow off the bench and plop down. The park is quiet and lonely; no one in sight except for me. I look at the jungle gym and study the frost on the bars. I wish for a damn miracle. I twirl my foot in the snow making an imperfect circle. I switch positions and feel the papers in my back pocket; I take…

would be too hot for jumpers and long sleeves, so I was trying to go cold turkey. But it was so hard. So, so hard. Often I found myself holding the blade in my hands. Most of the time, I don’t even mean to. It just sort of, happened. And I hated myself for it. I wanted to stop. I really did. But it was like a drug; I needed it. I thought maybe telling someone might help. But I didn’t want them to look at me like that. Like I was a broken thing that couldn’t to be fixed. But the scars; the scars…

on my face, but I push through it. I stand on our front porch and turn the bullhorn on. “TORNADO,” I scream. Then I repeat. “TORNADO, TORNADO, TORNADO!” I look over into my neighbor's yard and see a slight pathway. I jump onto some bricks and almost lose my balance but stay on. Then once again I repeat. “TORNADO, TORNADO, TORNADO!” I make my way around house to house careful not to fall into any of the yards. I yell the message in each yard hoping people will understand. I find myself in Kenna’s…

No One Can Define Your Beauty Do men and women view beauty in different ways? In the essay “The Ugly Truth about Beauty,” Dave Barry answers this question in his opinion. Barry discusses his views on why women have low self-esteem and why men have a lack of it. Barry’s essay explains the differences between men and women when personal appearance is involved; Barry incorrectly explains how men are okay with being average, that most women have low self-esteem, and that women wear makeup with the…
