Be Come A Star Novels & Stories

Nara nodded, then her tiny hands busied themselves rearranging the remaining wares. "It's okay. One day, when I grow up and become successful, I will take my mother away from here, so that she will forget her sadness and never meet people like that againI...I will make my mother happy." Nara wiped the corner of her watery eyes. Jayden was stunned. Apparently, the pain that Nara felt was deep. Now Jayden understands, why Nara looks more mature than his age. A child who lives under the blows of a barrage of waves of life, must force himself to be tough and strong in facing life.

If North wanted to be prideful, Reina would humiliate her! Reina gritted her teeth and came up with a brilliant plan. “Ah, so you’re good friends with Star, North? Ms. Star has always been prideful and doesn’t make friends easily. With my skills, I was only able to become her student. North, you must have some exceptional skills to catch Star’s interest, right?” Reina added meaningfully, “For example, you might have some unique insight to design? That means you’ll definitely win the design competition this year. I trust any friend of Star’s would have good skills in design and will stand out from the crowd.”

It is funny how music touches everyone so differently. The guys are all huddled around the TV watching a game like it's the Super Bowl. Except, it’s a freaking video game. So, of course, Steve is instantly lost to me. I could do a striptease right here in front of God and everybody, and he would not have a clue. I could be murdered no more than five feet away from him and his eyes would not turn away from that 50-inch screen. They are hooting and hollering like they are at the biggest sporting event of the year. Steve hollers that he has dibs to play the next round and becomes lost in the crowd of overgrown "boys".

Jake was quiet. “Shit, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to spring it on you. I like to plan and I gave up my dream to become Gamma and now I’m just trying to see what the best way to become a Luna is. It isn’t like there is any training for it, like with Alpha or Beta. I mean, do I go to college or do I continue to spar everyday and I thought if I helped Ari, maybe, -“

Jason started “The Evening star and the map are yours. I left this life before and I wasn't really sure what returning to it would do for me. Jason you are meant for this. You are meant to be a captain. You are my most trusted friend and deserve your own vessel.” Gavin said cutting him off. “Captain.” Jason went to interrupt again. “No, I mean this. Ask the men who would like to continue to plunger and pirate. They can go with you to the Evening Star. Those interested in an honest life can start anew with me.” Gavin said.

“So, when do you leave?” “One month,” Bev said. “If I decide to go. They need all the paperwork done by Friday, which doesn’t give me much time to make up my mind. I’d also have to get a complete physical by a doctor saying I’m not going to die on them up there, plus a million signatures saying that I won’t sue them if I come back maimed or something—” Katie interrupted. “Why wouldn’t you go? This is the chance of a lifetime. You get to go to outer space.”

He replied without missing a beat. "I always wanted to be a star." I sighed, "I used to star gaze all the time. Trevor and I used to give the stars names. Looking at the stars always made me feel better, because no matter how bad things were, the stars would always be beautiful, they'd always be right there in the sky shining, giving people hope. So, whenever somebody asked me what I wanted to be when I grew older I'd say 'a star'. Sad thing that I grew up and realized that couldn't happen." I finished with a wry smile. "Who said it couldn't?" I heard Nate's voice speak up.

It was time to bring her down and then break her into small, million pieces like she tried to do with him three months ago. “This kiss… It’s too little… I need more from you… I need you close to me, cariño. I would give my world away if you’d ask me to if this is the only way to have you by my side forever. I think of you every moment I go through. All my life I dreamed of you, thinking you couldn’t exist. But now you’re here, with me… Please, say you’ll marry me right now and fulfill every single one of my dreams. You are the only one I want, Callie. Marry me,” he demanded, barely holding himself back from kissing her again. “Let me give you all of me, mi cielo… Let me be with you and our

“Only if you want to, Kai. You can stay right here in the van. We can turn around, find another way, another city, another time. But if you walk through that door with us, the secret dies today. You won’t be the North Star anymore. You won’t be the myth or the brand or the investment. You’ll just be Kai. A man who’s hurting. A man who’s waking up.” He followed my gaze to the heavy steel door, its surface scarred from years of deliveries and equipment hauls. Then he looked past me to the approaching figures from the SUVs—dark silhouettes growing larger against the neon wash of the logo overhead. For a long second nothing moved except the wind tugging at the edges of his hood. Then something f

I bet he's ecstatic at the thought of taking over me. Star was long dead. I think it's time to meet her.
