    Summary

    At last, she looked back at me, and her eyes were utterly woeful, her lips set in a straight line and her eyebrows downwards. “August…” was all she’d said, and it was just above a whisper—I had to read her lips over the loud music. It seemed like she’d been about to add an “I’m so sorry,” but her tone had already done that for her.

    My stomach dropped. For some reason, I just knew. Suddenly, I was next to her by the window, the liquid in my cup splashing on my hand with my fast movements.

    I saw him in a matter of seconds.

     

    august meets james. august falls in love with james. august loses james.

    Summary

    Vanity burns: she takes sulphur match to love and ignites it before your eyes. There were far too many things I desired; I thirsted for much beyond my paltry grasp, and while it is true that I had taken him between my fingers and exposed all vulnerability under the warm august sun: that sun soon caused sparks to kindle and crack, and he melted to shadow while my fingers broke under the pressure of holding on. The arrow of Eros missed; or perhaps it was never fired at all: but something was certainly off about the way it struck me. All I remember was that, one day, his words no longer reached me, and I felt sharp sting in my heart and a sinking feeling that something had changed.

    A little while ago in my English Literature class, we were given the task to write a piece of creative fiction inspired by Jane Eyre and Charlotte Brontë's writing style, so I decided to write a this piece; the story of the folklore love triangle written in the style of Jane Eyre. I hope you enjoy!!
    I may change the title later, I thought of something quickly so I could post it!!

    Summary

    I wanna be defined by the things that I love. Not the things that I hate, not the things I'm afraid of, or the things that haunt me in the middle of the night. I just think that...you are what you love.

     

    When losing someone is blue, and missing them is dark gray, but love is always burning red...until it becomes painted golden, like daylight.

    Summary

    She stubs the cigarette out in the grass before she finally fixes her gaze on Dorothea again, tone slightly challenging when she asks, “Do you know why I’m hiding?”

    “I’ve heard that you stole your best friend’s boyfriend,” Dorothea says, cautiously, “but that’s none of my business.”

    Dorothea knows why the warm, happy look that August gives her makes her heart speed up—she’s known it for a while and kept it neatly tucked inside her where nobody has to deal with it—but that doesn’t make it any less distracting.

    “Do you wanna get out of here?” August asks, getting to her feet and offering her a hand.

    Summary

    Betty Green isn't very excited to start working on her final English assignment with James Wolfe. He's lazy. He's always late. He hates school. But once she decides to give him a chance, things don't turn out as planned.
    Augustine Thomas once found a boy inside her father's studio. It's been three years since that winter morning and she hasn't thought about that boy since (not once), until one fateful day, when she bumps into a pair of green-yellow eyes across the room.
