85 - The New Best Night Of My Life
Rae had on a sexy little dress that hugged her body perfectly. I was hard just looking at her, but I usually was anyhow. She got us a quiet booth in the back and had actually reserved the table in front of us too for a little privacy.
I didn't like her being in public with so little covering her. Her body was only for my eyes, but she was so happy and with today's news I wasn't about to pick a fight or make her feel self conscious.

Gifted Shadows 2 - Of Course She Will
My fourteenth birthday came and went in early May, and it was now three months without a word from mom. I was heartbroken that she would miss my birthday and then miss summer.Summers with mom were my best memories, since she never did have a job.

Was this seriously happening right now?My whole body was hot and I was sweating like a pig. After about ten minutes we pulled up to their house, and thankfully it stopped raining.It was a standard ranch style house, much like mine, but it looked like they owned a lot of land. There was a large corn field in front across the street, and some other vegetable field beside their house.Were they farmers?He didn't strike me as the farming type.Jace noticed my eyes darting all over.“It’s even more bizarre on the years when they rotate the fields and the corn stalks are all around our house. It makes for some badass hide and seek though, esp

It actually wasn't as weird as I thought it would be.However, I was met with the serious third degree from dad and Erik, and dad decided to leave Erik “in charge of it,” as he put it.Dad was shocked when I asked for money to go shopping.“Yeah, I know I rarely go shopping," I had said.Dad laughed and raised his eyebrow, “rarely, huh? How about I am usually begging you to go shopping and telling you that you need to be a little more ... feminine?”Yeah, about that.&n
Gifted Shadows 5 - Julia
A few minutes went by and I noticed his breathing leveled, and he was asleep. My mind just raced with all kinds of thoughts, it really goes to show that you never know what someone is going through.To me, Jace looked like the perfect All-American jock. He should be living his best life, not living in fear of his father and on top of everything, living in fear of being his true self.I couldn't hide being half black, it was on full display for everyone to see. It wasn't something I needed to explain, people could just see me for what I was. But Jace had to keep so much bottled inside, hide so much and basically live two lives, a burden I can't possibly understand.After about half-an-hour, I felt his fingers moving in my hair again and I desperately wanted to change the mood.

Even Mr. Drew made a comment about not seeing us together anymore. I didn't do anything wrong, at least not that I could tell.I still had all of Julia's clothes, makeup and a couple wigs in my room, as a constant reminder of what I lost.

But I was somewhere familiar...Where the hell was I?And then it dawned on me … I was in Jace's room.Was he the one who rushed into the room?!I pulled aside the covers to realize I was in a big T-shirt with no bottoms. I threw the covers off completely and examined my legs, there were a bunch of bruises, and my arms looked a fright as well.I didn't seem to have any soreness between my legs though, and that was my main focus at the moment.
