Sunshine Sparkles Novels & Stories

"Cut the crap, Luke. I know you've been looking for the perfect experimental subject. As long as you take me with you, my life is yours." The laughter on the other end stopped abruptly. "Deal." ... A black silk dress clung tightly to my body, while my delicate neck was exposed to the cool air. I sat before the vanity mirror, looking at myself. The Night Owl with eyes radiating murderous intent was gone, replaced by a beautifully made-up doll. Jules stood behind me, placing a ruby ​​necklace around my neck. The cold gem pressed against my collarbone. "Beautiful." He looked at me in the mirror, his hands pressing gently on my shoulders. "Skylar, no matter what happens tonight, trust me, okay?"

I manage, sliding into the seat across from her. Her green eyes sparkle with warmth as she gives my hand a quick squeeze. "I swear, this weather can't make up its mind," she quips, gesturing to the window where sunlight now streams through after a morning of rain. "One minute it's doom and gloom, the next it's all sunshine and rainbows." I chuckle softly, feeling some of the tension leave my shoulders. "Sounds about right," I reply, thinking how aptly that describes my current emotional state.

We clink our glasses, the sunlight catching the liquid inside, casting a rainbow of colors on the surface of the water. Sabrina takes a sip of her drink, sighing contentedly. "Okay, I have to admit, this is the perfect way to spend a lazy afternoon." Michal raises his glass in agreement. "Cheers to spontaneous fun and unexpected pool showers!" I nod, watching as the sun begins its slow descent, painting the sky in hues of orange, pink, and gold. There's a cozy silence shared between the four of us, an understanding that these quirky, laughter-filled moments define true friendship.

It made her wonder if there was anyone in the house or if she had been deserted. Standing on the stone steps in front of the house, Rosa let the sunshine pour over her. It felt amazing to let it soak into her skin. If she could have lain out on the steps and soaked up the warmth from its light she would have. But she had something to do first. Opening her eyes, she made her way down the steps to the gravel drive and followed it around the front of the house.

Let him just try, I would send a magic wave at him so quick he’d be flat on his ass in seconds. “If you don’t know how to skate, I would only need to teach you.” He said, as if speaking with a child. I rolled my eyes at him. “How else were you going to skate? By magic?” “Yes.” I replied sarcastically. “I was thinking you would spell my shoes to go by itself and help me skate as gracefully as a swan.” I saw something twitch in his forehead. There was a spell? “Oh my god, you do know a spell.”

"What? I’m not a child." Alaric lit one, the golden sparks flickering between them as he placed it in her hand. "No," he said with a smile. "But you are my fairy." Emerald waved the fairy wand, its golden sparks dancing in the night. Alaric took out his phone and smiled. "Look at me, Moon." She turned toward him, and in that instant, time seemed to freeze. In the picture, she held the sparkler with a bright, carefree smile. The glow of the flames illuminated her face, making her look effortlessly beautiful.

The sparkle is everywhere, millions of tiny twinkling lights incited by the rays of sunlight piercing through the waters. And then, the silence. The world is silent down here. Ethereal. Peaceful even. Luke's blue eyes shine in unison with the blue allure of the water around us. When he smiles at me, I feel like I have seen the most beautiful painting in the world. The painting of the blue eyed boy I love surrounded by blue sparkles of water and sunlight. I feel my lungs jerking for fresh air. I point my fingers up, signalling to Luke that I want to go back to the water's surface. He nods, and we both swim together to the surface.

Summer asked me, joining me by the window. She collects the glass from my hand and drinks the rest of the gin. She did not flinch while swallowing the poison, and I smiled at her. "I tucked them all in. They keep asking all sorts of questions. Children," she said, rolling her eyes, and I smiled. Then she reached out and gently pushed a loose strand of my hair behind my ear. "How are you holding up, Sparkle?" She asks, using her term of endearment. She gave me that name because she said I always had a spark in my eyes, no matter the circumstance. I doubt I do now.

Sparkle then directed her microphone to Aiden, saying, "Hooray!" Aiden swiftly responded while clapping his hands, "Hep Hep." After Aiden, Sparkle moved faster, pointing the microphone randomly at anyone in a matter of seconds. Sparkle: "Hep Hep." Lily: "Hooray!" Sparkle: "Hep Hep." Lace: "Hooray!" Sparkle: "Hooray!" Shantelle: "Hep Hep." Sparkle: "Hep Hep." Marcus: "Hooray!"

"Hahahaha. I'm sorry. Was that you? asking a favor from me? I thought you knew everything!" Andrew laughed at his words. Pia Drew stood there for a moment with her usual face but getting a little annoyed already. Andrew composed himself. "Okay. Sorry, it's just....it sounded like a joke. but okay what's the deal, Sunny?" "I'm paying you. I mean my dad will be paying you. Treat this as a tutorial." "Are you kidding me? how much are you gonna pay? a million?" "come on star boy, can't you give me a discount?"
