About Me

Ok so I was inspired by Story_Girl to start writing stories on here! So I did and so far people have liked them! I love to imagine things but I feel like the world needs to know my story. That means that there will be a lot of real life stories and if they aren't real they will be filled with real events. I changed the names of people in my stories to protect them but all the names are of real people. If a name shows up in multiple stories than that person is a huge deal in my life.

I hope you enjoy my stories as much as I do!

OK so here's the deal with the comments. I love getting your opinion on things. If you love the story feel free to tell me. If you don't like it, still feel free to tell me but don't be a brat. Telling me I suck at writing or that the story was pointless won't stop me from writing or help my next story be better. So please, only helpful critisism! Thank you.

His Point Of View
Things after that weren't the same. Melanie never told anyone about what I said, and she also never told anyone about Bobby. I had begged her to at first but at one point, I realized it wasn't my place to say. She still stayed at my house...well, where else did she have to go? We still had that sibling feel between eachother but we never went as far as being alone. Next week, I leave for college and she is coming to help me unpack. Hopefully, things will return to normal on the 2 day trip.
Like I said before, I never knew such a small kiss could start so much trouble. I never knew one girl could control all my feelings, thoughts, and actions. I never knew that one summer could change your whole life. Hell, I never knew I could deal with telling this entire story to a website of girls I will probably never know. But in the end, I guess I learned alot about myself this summer. I would never take any of it back.
Signed,
Jonathan
ps This was fun. Maybe I should
make my own account...

His Point Of View
She walked shyly on stage, sat on a stool, and put her guitar on her lap.
"Um, hi everyone." She said. A girl called out from the audience saying she loved Melanie. Mel blushed. "Love you too. But anyway, um, this is the first time I've ever preformed in front of anybody...seriously. So if I'm terrible, please let me know so I don't further embarrass myself." She blushed a deeper shade of red. "So um, yeah here it goes."
The entire hall went dead silent as Melanie strummed her first few chords. The she started to sing. It was beautiful. Her voice rang out throughout the hall. People stared up at stage completely entranced. Her eyes were closed and she was putting her all into this song. You could hear the passion.
"And where will we go when all we need is a good time?
Who will we think of when we think about the best years of our lives?
Don't say goodbye, to anyone you love here cause it's,
Not goodbye. I promise we will meet again."
The girl next to me burst out into tears. Soon after, everyone else was crying too. The girls grabbed who ever was closest to them and hugged them and cried into their shoulders. A few guys even cried a little. Melanie stayed strong though. She sat on stage singing her heart out and didn't let a single tear fall. She strummed the last few chords. Then the music stopped. At first, there wasn't a sound. Then, clapping started. And cheering. And people calling out to her. She smiled and ran off stage. When our eyes met, she burst into tears. She ran to me and I put my arms tight around her. She put her head into my neck and I kissed the top of it. I felt her shaking. Then she looked up at me and smiled a small smile.
The show went on. We stayed behind the curtains with many of the other acts and watched. When it was over, we all walked out together to bow. On my left were the boys I preformed with, on my right, Melanie. We all took hands and bowed. The applause engulfed us. People started breaking off the chain and hugging. Everyone was crying again, knowing that this was our last preformance until next year. finally, we walked off stage and to our bunks. It was time for the afternoon assembly. That's when things went wrong.

His Point Of View
A month had passed and her parents only came once. The day after she tried to leave. My father wouldn't let them in because Melanie's dad looked too angry. They haven't bothered showing up again.
During that month camp had come. This camp was for truly gifted kids. Ages 3 to 19. All these kids could sing or dance. They were artistic and athletic. Everyone had one specific thing they were best at there, but 500 other things that they were still amazing. For Michelle, her best was soccer. And Melanie was amazing at High Ropes (like rock climbing). None of them were mean and they all were as close as family. Even I couldn't help but come back every year.
Now at the end of the year, there was the camp Talent Show. This was for all the best acts. I mean, there were other shows. Like the dance show or the triple threat, but this was the final chance to show who you really are. You don't have guidelines to follow or a theme to choose from. It was just you out there on stage. This year, Melanie decieded to write a song for this camp.
For weeks she practiced it, locked up in the basement. It took up all her spare time. Michelle got a little jealous at times but I told her to get over it. This was something Melanie loved.
It was the day of the Show. Everyone at camp was freaking out. Even me and my crew were. Backstage all you could see were people practicing dances or tricks and all you could hear were a hundred different melodies being sung or played. It was a crazy rush of nerves and adrenalin. Then it was time for my act.
Me and 4 of my friends got into positions on stage. Eminem's Won't Back Down came blasting through the speakers. We were doing a break dance routine. All the moves came naturally and it didn't feel like we had just changed half of it an hour ago. The second the song ended I wished I could do it again. We walked off stage.
The show went on for another hour. Then it was Melanie's turn.

His Point Of View
That night Melanie slept on our couch. She seemed to sleep fine. I on the other hand was up all night. I was trying to figure out what my feelings for her were.
Were they just brotherly or more than that? I thought hard. I had started to notice little things about her more and more. Like the way her hair only shined in sunlight, not lightbulbs. Or how soft the top of her hands were. Woah woah woah. What's wrong with me? I mean...she's three years younger than me! Plus she was my LITTLE sister's best friend! I must have been going crazy. I went down stairs to get a drink.
Melanie was lying asleep on the coach. I smiled. She snored. Not loudly but she snored. I chugged a can of coke then went back to my room. I probaly just need some sleep.

His Point Of View
"He hates me...and it's all my fault. I should have done what he wanted. I should have gone to that camp and switched teams and quit lacrosse. That's what I should have done. But no. I stayed home that summer and I stayed with out team and I'm still playing lacrosse. I'm the complete opposite of the daughter he wanted and he hates me because of it. I couldn't even be friends with the people he wanted me to. I don't even look the way he wants me to. I'm a terrible daughter." Melanie was crying hard now. The kind that you stutter half the word and can't even say the rest. Her breathes came out in hiccups. I put my arms around her and pulled her close.
"Don't say that Mel. You're perfect and beautiful. Your dad loves you, no matter how stupid or arrogant he's acting, he loves you." He held her as tightly to my body as I could. I know it sounds so cliche but I felt like maybe if I held her tight enough I'd take away her pain.
"Then why doesn't he say it Jon? Why does he call me ugly and stupid? Why Jon? If he loved me he would never do that!" She pulled away from me. "Don't tell me it will all be ok cause it's not! And it never will be! Don't you understand that!" She started shaking. Then she collapsed into her seat. I got out of the car, walked to her side, picked her up and sat in her seat with her on my lap. She cried into my chest and I held her and stroked her hair. Two hours later, when she finished crying she looked up at me with a pathetic smile. "I'm sorry.." I cut her off
"You don't ever have to apologize to me Mel. I love you enough for everyone you will ever meet. Now let's go home." I got back into my seat and started the car. She pulled down the visor and a little square thing from the bag she had. Then she took out her contacts and put on her glasses. When she saw me staring she blushed and said,
"They are my old glasses...from 5th grade. My parents never remembered to get new ones so we'd just get the lenses changed."
"They look amazing on you."

His Point Of View
On the way home the car was silent. I knew that Melanie need to talk about what was going on but I also knew not to push her. She'd talk when she was ready.
Half way home she sat up straighter and said, "I need clothes...." I was about to say she could borrow Michelle's but she told me they weren't the same size anymore.
"Do you want me to bring you home..? Or the mall or something?" I added the second part when I saw the look of fear on her face. I couldn't understand why. I mean, yea her parents kicked her out but they had to atleast give her her things.
"The mall...actually the bank first." I agreed and headed for the bank. It made me feel better remembering that ever since she was old enough to understand money, Melanie's parents put half her allowance into a bank account for her. Melanie even started putting more money in.
When we got there I walked her inside. I showed her how to write a check and where to sign everything. I remember how she laughed when I got confused. To say the least, we looked like the two biggest idiots every seen in a bank. The people working there either rolled their eyes at us or smiled and laughed softly.
When we finally got it right we walked up to the cashier guy. Melanie handed him her check. He typed the code into a computer, then froze. He tried again. It still didn't seem to work. He told us to stay there and walked into a back room. Melanie looked scared. I reached down and squeezed her hand.
"It's ok, probably some flaw in the computer. It's fine." She looked up at me and seemed to relax a tiny bit, but she still held on to my hand like it was the only thing keeping her alive. Soon enough, the man came back.
"I'm sorry ma'am but this account was closed. The money was switched to another account. Would you mind filling out a check for that one?" He said this like it was our fault for not knowing. Melanie's mouth formed a wide O. She took a step back.
"Are you sure?" I asked. The man nodded. "Never mind, come on Mel." I walked her out of the bank and into the car. She had barely blinked since he told us. Once I started the car and got back on the road, Melanie started to cry. I pulled into an empty park.
"Melanie. You need to tell me what's really going on with your family."

His Point Of View
My sister cried once the door closed. I just stood there, to angry to move. After anger came sorrow, then fear. She was only 15, and she was now alone. We live in a small town, but in this small town there are a lot of bad people. I ran out to my car without even thinking and started to drive. I had no idea what way she would go. For a while, I just sat at the corner, trying to figure out where the hell to drive. But after only a few minutes, it hit me. The beach. She always said that was her favorite part of this place, how you could walk to the beach and be there in 10 minutes. I stood on the gas petal and went the shortest way I knew. When I got there, I stayed on the road that's parrellel to the boardwalk and slowly drove down it. Then I saw her. Sitting at a bus stop eating an apple. I pulled over right in front of her and demanded she got in the car.
"No Jon. I'm not going with you."
"Then I'm going with you. Dammit Mel, you are like a little sister to me! I'm not leaving you alone. I don't care how much love scares you but it doesn't scare me. Now either get in this car or wait while I get a ticket to wherever you're going. You're choice." I sat in idle and waited for her response.
"Where am I supposed to stay? My parents told me to never come back to their house, they told me they never wanted to see me again! I need to leave." She stared into my eyes and I stared back. They were clear and honest. I turned the car back on.
"You'll stay at our place." She got in the car

His Point Of View
Ever since then, I stopped avoiding her. Actually, I made it a point to talk to her every time she came over. She became a huge part of my life. I'd be excited the days she stayed over, and I'd offer to drive whenever they wanted to go anywhere. Eventually, she got my number and we would text like brother and sister. I loved her being around and I couldn't see why I didn't always. Until one day she came over crying.
"Just leave us alone..." My sister said with a glare, unlike Melanie, Michelle hated when I would hang out with them.
"No, let Jonathan come, it's ok." She whimpered. Ignoring the looks I got from my sister I walked into the room.
"What happened?" I demanded. I felt so angry. What if somebody had hurt her? I felt myself heating up. This girl meant so much to me, she was just so amazing, and somebody thought they could hurt her?
"Calm down. It's my own fault." She looked up at me with tear stained cheeks and blood shot eyes. "I have to leave Jonathan. I'm going to go to my aunt's or something, just away from this stupid little town."
I took a step back. What did she mean, stupid little town? She seemed like such a small town Jersey Girl. And why was she leaving? How could she leave?
"What are you talking about." My sister looked quickly at me, then at Melanie, she looked even more confused then I did.
"I don't be long here Jonathan, you know that. I'm not like everybody else."
"That's why you need to stay!"
"I can't! People are trusting me...and asking for my opinion...and I'm not fighting it. I actually care about people here. I need to leave." She got up. That's when I noticed she had a bag with her. "I just came to say good bye." And she walked out the door. I didn't try to stop her. I remembered then why I didn't like her. She never seemed to care what she was doing, or the people around her. Nothing that had happened over the past month mattered. We were just another town to cross off her list.

His Point Of View
One kiss could mess so many different things up for so many different people. And it sucks when that one kiss, wasn't even a real kiss. I'm Jonathan and this is the story of how I almost ruined the best thing that ever happened to me.
This story is based in the summer. The last week of it actually. It starts off at my camp's yearly Talent Show, on the last day of camp.
Melanie, my best friend was on stage. Her act was being introduced. That girl had written her first song for this camp. Just goes to show how much it means to us. There was dead silence as her voice rang throughout the theatre hall. Silence, until the crying started. All the girls hugged who ever was closest and let the tears fall. Backstage, and in the audience. Even a few guys let loose. On stage, Melanie stayed rock solid. She simply sang and sang. Finally, she strummed the final few notes. She walked off stage with a thunderous applause following her. As she reached me, standing in stage right, she threw her arms around me and cried. I held her close. This girl was like me very own sister. She put her head into my neck and I kissed the top of it. The rest of the show went on, so me and Melanie stayed behind the curtain and watched.
After the show ended, all the acts walked out together to bow. On my left were my boys, who I had done a break dance routine with, and on my right, Melanie. We all took hands and bowed. Then walked out.
Nothing wrong there right? That's what I thought. Until somebody told me different.

Hailey's Star
Day 7
I'm sorry for not writing right away. The last few days have been crazy. The judge called two days after just like he said. He found her. I remember when we found out Hailey cried. The judge's exact words were, "You were smart not to get your hopes up to high, it was nearly impossible to track her down. And then trying to get her to answer her phone? It was like bringing a cat to a bath! But...we did it." Hailey dropped the phone and fell into my arms. I cheered as she cried and laughed. Mrs Q picked up the phone to sort everything out.
The next day I was at their house again. This time for something even scarier. We were going to call her mother.
The judge was the one who recommended making the call first before meeting. Hailey thought he was crazy but Mrs Q agreed. I still know that very first phone call by heart.
Hailey's Mom - Hello?
Hailey - Um hi...it's Hailey...
Hailey's Mom - Hailey? How are you baby!
Hailey - I'm good...how are you?
Hailey's Mom - I'm great hun! Just got home a couple minutes ago! Oh I've missed you
baby girl!
Hailey - Yea, I've missed you too.
Hailey's Mom - So...how's school?
Hailey - It's fine...um it ended last week..
Hailey's Mom - Really? You graduated right? Oh so sorry I missed that!'
Hailey - Um actually...I graduate next year...I'm in seventh.
Hailey's Mom - Oh, silly me. Must have slipped my mind! So, what kind of music do
you like? That cute Justin boy?
Hailey - Actually I hate him. I'm more into Paramore.
Hailey's Mom - Oh that's odd. I thought a girl your age is all into cute boys...
Hailey - I am...I just don't think he is any good.
Hailey's Mom - Oh, well what about a boyfriend? Some arm candy?
Hailey - No...
Hailey's Mom - Honey, can I ask you something?
Hailey - Sure...
Hailey's Mom - You haven't said the word Mother once...what's wrong?
Hailey - Are you kidding me?! You ditched me! You don't know anything about me! I
could never call you a mother!
Hailey's Mom - Honey...it's not like that.
Hailey - Then what's it like? You just forgot to come back? You forgot that maybe I was
hurt and alone when you first sent those letters? That maybe I needed some
fricken time?! What's it like then Mom?
Hailey's Mom - I will not talk to you right not if you are going to be so angry.
Hailey - Fine! Leave again! What do I care?
Hailey's Mom - Hailey, be resonable. I will call you again in the morning when you have
had time to cool off.
Hailey- Ok whatever. Bye
Hailey's Mom - Goodbye Hailey.
Not what you thought it would be right? Well, I guess I should have guessed it wouldn't be movie perfect. The rest of the night was spent watching movies and eating crap. Lots of it. But, just like she promised, Hailey's mom called again the next morning. I wasn't there for that conversation but from what I was told it went better.
"I'm meeting her tomorrow, my mom...well not my real mom, my aunt, she's going to be coming with me. Would you come too?" Hailey had called me that night and explained it all.
"Of course, I told you we are in this together. I can call Jake too, if you want?"
"Please do, I need all the support I can get." And I knew she ment it. That night we talked for 3 hours. One of them spent on three way with Jake. We all decieded to meet two blocks away from the Cafe Hailey's mom would be at, so we could all show up together. Hailey was so scared. She deserved to be. She was about to meet the woman who gave birth to her, yet didn't know a thing about her.
"Oh yea, and she told me real name. She wants us to call her Mary Beth."

Hailey's Star
Day 6
Last night was the night. We had to ask Hailey's aunt for help, we couldn't do it on our own. It was probably the most tension filled night, but still the most successful. Here's how it went down...
Hailey - "Mom...can I ask you something?"
Mrs Q - "Sure babe, what's up?"
Hailey - "Well...you know how me and Sasha have been looking for my... real mom?"
Then there was a long pause as we all sat at the counter not making any eye contact.
Mrs Q - "Yes."
Hailey - "We need you to help, Mom. Please?"
Mrs Q put down her coffee and looked into Hailey's eyes. They sat like that for a full five minutes before anything happened. All you could here was the sound of their Grandfather clock in the living room.
Mrs Q - "Hailey you know how I feel about...her." Hailey's eyes fell and her shoulders drooped. I felt my face fall. "But since I love you and I see how much you want this...I'll try. I can't garunte anything though Hail."
Hailey and I jumped up and hugged her tight. We squealed and jumped up and down together. Even Mrs Q had to smile a little. We were finally getting somewhere!
After dinner, Mrs Q called the judge that had taken Hailey's mom to rehab. He said that he would try to find her records and call us in two days. Things were starting to look up.

Hailey's Star
Day 6
It feels like weeks have gone by. Still nothing. We've continued the search everyday after school but it's hard to keep trying when we have nothing good or real to hold on to. We hid Jake in our garages as long as we could. It was hard but we were happier with him here. Eventually though, his dad spoke to his mom and found out that we hung out a lot. He found Jake and took him back. We didn't even find out how it happened. One day we came back from school and there was a note in her bedroom that said,
got caught
taking me back
DO NOT GIVE UP!
We've come close to contact with him but his dad always ends up stopping us. The searches have gone down from hours at the computer screen to maybe 30 minutes. We've gotten absolutely no where. Hailey seems to be taking it well but I don't know how long it will last. Fathers day is coming up and I can see that she misses him. She broke down the other day in class while reading her poem to the class. It was painful to watch. But she is a strong girl. I know she'll be ok. I want so badly for her to find her mother....
