17 days after "Have you heard the news?" The shriek greeted Lucy as Violet and Frieda crowded around her in the girl's locker room. It reeked of sweat, steam, and an overdose of flowery perfume, though only cheerleaders could be found there now. It was the new haven for after-school gossip, after a troupe of freshmen girls had infiltrated the last one. "What news?" Lucy yawned, slipping on her cheer uniform. Last night was filled with parties, boys, and last-minute studying for this morning's history test. She was much too tired for gossip at the moment. "Oh. My. God." Violet gleamed with excitement. "I can't believe you haven't heard yet. O

A/N: This fanfic is inspired by my old story Peanuts in High School and an edit by droo216 on tumblr. This is an ongoing fanfic, but I cannot promise I will update it frequently or if I even finish it. It all depends on the amount of free time I have and how much feedback I receive. With that, please enjoy! 15 days after A flash of lightning seared itself upon the ink-dipped sky. People dashed for cover as the scent of wet stone stained the air, a warning for a storm. A drizzle of rain started soon afterward, which quickly picked up into a downpour. Street lights glowed; small, umbrella-less crowds gathered under the protection of candy-strip

I love the birds, I love the trees, I love all of nature's little things. I love the air, I love the sky, I spread my wings and wish to fly. I love the grass, I love the bugs, I want to give each creature a giant hug. I love the warmth, I love the smell, I've been put under an enchanting spell. I love the spring, more than summer, winter, and fall, I am mesmerized by the beauty of it all.

I melt into arms that love me like the grass loves the morning dew And my face is powdered with snowflake kisses The moments tread like camels upon the desert sand I wish they could stop entirely I love you And suddenly 1+1=1 makes perfect sense

The leaves glisten with dew and morning light The animals sing with courageous might I see the sun, it brightens my soul And yet in my heart there is still a hole A place where there lies only dread A place where happiness cannot tread It is a secret I'll always hold Even if to the devil it's sold Its darkness creeps into my heart Through winter and cold it did its part But now the air is so crisp and warm On the horizon, I see no storm So I set aside the hole with all my demons I find that with spring, I can finally leave them

My thoughts are venomous snakes My thoughts hurt like a throbbing blister My thoughts love what cannot be theirs My thoughts hate to leave me alone My thoughts threaten To break me down UGLYstupidWHINYunlovedSLOB Alone. My thoughts convince me that they tell the truth And I will foolishly believe them

Everyone around me is so full of hurt It's hard to believe there's still happiness on this wretched earth How can there be laughter when there's so many tears How can we be strong when we're brimming with fear Dreams can't come true I didn't tell this to you We feed ourselves with beautiful lies But words can't save broken lives We are all just suicidal children Convincing each other now is not the end.

I'm still here It's been a long time I've fought many battles Kept my toes in line I'm still here But people have come and gone Say hello, say goodbye You'll stay with me like a song I'm still here I have laughed and I have cried Sometimes I've told the truth Sometimes I've lied I'm still here And nothing will make me leave I am strong. I'll go on. All I have to do is believe

I feel...               so tired and my bones are weak        from carrying my cold dying body my eyes        yearn to close                    forever                            so they may dream                    of a time        when my mind didn't remember such painful beautiful memories could I drown in sleep and n e v e r resurface? I wish. but then again when have my wishes ever come true

Don't be stupid Don't believe everything you hear Look before you fall Eyes are windows to the soul You should have seen how his did not shine bright for you You convince yourself He couldn't control what he said He couldn't control those untruths falling like shattered glass into your heart Silly girl. You should have known Fairy tales are the only place where love survives
