(Gming approved by Yugikun.) Did... Did he just try to kick her in the guts? There are certain things you learn, growing up in Brooklyn. Certain things you just have to learn growing up. Brooklyn seems to speed up that process, makes everything a bit bitter too. One of the things Scout knew was how ...

... Scout made a decision then, between the time the boy stopped to think and when he began to jog out of the room. Her plan? She had no real concrete plan when she found the boy. The second she heard those announcements, no, the moment she finally put things into perspective, all notion of 'plannin...

Scout stopped smiling. She didn't expect the boy to actually stand his ground. He looked like a puss. Clearly she underestimated him. As far as Scout was concerned, she did not give a fuck whether he was planning to do it again or not. All she knew, all she cared to know was that he did do it. Why t...

Scout did not move out of the way. Her hands transferred from her pants pockets to her hoodie. She thumbed the bonesaw. Mentally prepared herself for if and when this boy decided not.

Then Caedyn said what she wanted to hear and everything was alright then. Everything was alright. Everything was going t...

Jasmine smirked. " Oh shut up." She could feel Kay's thumbs against her chest, real gentle and soothing, more affectionate than lustful. Jasmine liked it when Kay was affectionate. When they were first going out, Jasmine seriously thought Kay was only dating her because it was 'easy'. Jasm...

Jasmine sat up. She rested on her elbow, looking at Caedyn with a pitying smile. "You still wanted me even though I killed Joshua," she said. "I can't think of anyone else who would have done that. I mean, Nancy, maybe? But she's -- " Oh. Right. Nancy. Her heart sank a little. &q...

(Jasmine Reed continued from The Scarlet Garden .) "I do trust you Kay. It's just..." Jasmine smiled softly. She was certain about that, about trusting Kay, but there was a nibbling in the back of her head and it made her suddenly anxious. It probably had nothing at all to do with the oper...
