"I always saw myself as being such a good friend." Kiesha looked at her watch. 1 Am. Another 5 hours and she could go home to get some rest. It's wasn't that her job was overly demanding, although she did have to deal with some cranky patients at times. She just needed some time to adjust to her new hours. She certainly wasn't going to complain. Dr. Thomas...
Just as quickly as the Christmas break had come, it was already over, which meant both cheerleading and choir were also over. It was a new semester; everyone had new classes and different teachers, and the dreadful prospect of homework was just around the corner. But most importantly, Kaylee's play practice was now in full swing. Casting had begun for A Mid...
As 'All Hallows Eve' approaches, a young man carves his way into weirdness, lust and a terrible choice... Richard was angry. His anger was nothing compared to his frustration.
