I rubbed my thumb in circles on her hand. This moment was so perfect. While I was dating Kye, I thought love would come with time, but while I was wrapped in her embrace I was falling. Quicker and quicker. The more seconds the clock ticks down, the further I fell. We were sat by a small fire we had made as the stars flickered like fireflies in the distance.

The world is a winding puzzle full of different stories and experiences. Full of people fated to die young and others fated to change the world. But sometimes, a person stumbles into the wrong thing, a person, a thing, a small object with the ability to change worlds. And, on occasion, the roles are switched. Because nothing is fixed.

"Mel, come on!" May called from my living room. I took once last look in the mirror, bottling my nerves and with one last deep breath, I felt my nerves pour out along with the warm air, preparing myself for what was supposed to be the best night of my life."I'm coming!" I yelled down hastily before grabbing my purse from my dresser and heading down the stairs. I stumbled slightly in the extremely tall heels I was wearing, clutching the handrail to stay stable. I heard a chuckle from the b
Mel's POVI walked home with a slight skip in my step, one fuelled by an evening of happy memories under the sunset. It was around half 5, so I knew that mom wasn't going to be too happy with me coming home so late but it seemed that the events of the day had just made the worry slide off of me like there was a waterproof coating around my happiness. However, I couldn't have predicted the torrential rain that was about to fall as I
