Normally I didn’t drink coffee, but I could use a jolt, so I took a sip then slid it back to her. “Thanks. I needed that.”
“Sure. So?”
Allison grinned, “Robin’s going to make her own Aria Blade costume for Nikki’s party.”
Margie raised her mug, enjoying a slow, contemplative sip before she answered. “Sounds like fun. Hey, you said last night that Nikki’s taking her driving test this afternoon. Why don’t you come over to Touch of Style after school while she’s distracted with that? I mean, I’m no world-class dress designer like Mom, but if you don’t mind, I’d love to help.”

After a few moments, the tension had completely dissipated, leaving both women relaxed and with their guards completely down. Dana put her head back on the headrest and breathed out a relaxed sigh. Persis looked at her and burst into tears. Dana turned her head and smile and said softly,
"It's okay...I understand." She bit her lip and tears came to her eyes.
"This was fun...and sweet and wonderful and special...but I know this was...you know...us helping each other." She shook her head slightly and continued, but in a softer, sadder tone.
"I'm sorry...I didn't mean to be so selfish...and I'm presuming too much. You were so kind and tender. I can't expect you to know how much that meant. I didn't want to put anything on you, but you've been so...nice to me since we met."

It was one of those time moves so slowly moments. Tay had told me he was falling in love with me and honestly I was falling in love with him too. How couldn’t I right? He had been a stand up guy ever since I met him, and when I met him I was so low that I was really considering killing myself.

Stephanie’s Deal
by Jennifer Brock
Twelve-year-old Stephanie Brooks used to be an eleven-year-old boy who didn’t mind his parents. When they punished him for peeking at his Christmas presents by making him dress in girls’ clothes, she became more comfortable with herself and turned into a responsible, considerate girl with a much sunnier disposition. In this episode, Stephanie starts attending her new school, a liberal institution with an unorthodox approach that just might be what our girl needs. As we begin, it is Monday, February 4, 2008.
(After far too long, the author has found enough free time to release an update, and she promises to try to do better next time.)

Ryan pried open his heavy lids. His vision was blurred as he tried to focus his sight. Blinking several times and rubbing his eyes, he found his surroundings slowly come into sharpness. Oh, it felt like he had been hit by a truck. His whole body ached. His thoughts were a little confused as he tried to think about what had happened to him to cause such soreness. Suddenly it snapped! His first fever had hit...he quickly sat up and surveyed his body. Oh crap! He wasn't ready for this.

The start of any journey is such a delicate time. A time for joy and a time for regret, a time for aspiration and a time for reflection. Yet most of all it is a time for foundation, for upon those first steps our future direction is so often fixed.

The first indication something is wrong comes when I hear someone stumble
over some shoes I left out just for that purpose. “Laurie?” I enquire as, groggily, I try to sit up.
“Not quite,” a gruff male voice responds quietly, as I become aware of an
aromatic cloth clapped over my mouth and nose. I begin to struggle and bite but
I’m pinned to my bed and my world quickly turns black.
My last thought before passing out is: Where’s the FBI——?

Being Kitty
by Kylie Unbroken
-----
PART VI
I can't
really just come out an ask. That would be rude. But they all make
such perfect women.
My internal conversation caught Aunt Sandra's attention. “Are
you ok, Kitty?”
My attention was wrenched back to the real world. “Yeah,”
I replied, “Just thinking.”
“About what?” Heather queried.
“Oh, I'm just thinking about getting another slice of pizza,”
I lied.
“I think I'll go have a smoke. I'll be back.” Heather
said. “Would you like to join me, Kitty?” She asked
pointedly.
I nodded, and followed her towards the kitchen door. Even though I
wasn't really hungry, I validated my lie and took a piece of pizza
with me.
“What's a matter, Kitty?” She asked the second the door
was closed behind us. “I can tell when something deep is on
somebody's mind, and it looks like you're in way deep.” She lit
her cigarette as she was talking.
I shook my head. “It's nothing,” I assured her. My
curiosity got the better of me, “I'm just thinking about
something my Momma said before I came. She said that somebody close
to her was transgender; then I came here and you tell me that you,
Lily, and Chris are all close to her...” I let my statement
trail off into a question.

Beware...The Creeper!
-by Lynceus
Prologue-
It's been said that no story ever really ends. The corollary to this is that no story ever really begins, either. Take, for example, the bizarre fate of one Jack Ryder. It begins some time ago, with Gotham's most infamous criminal, The Joker.
Once known as Jack Napier (among other aliases), The Joker got his start as an enforcer for the Valestra family, who eventually decided to strike out on his own, adopting (albeit temporarily) the identity of The Red Hood.

This is a new occasional series that takes its basis and some of its storyline from the Tokyopop Manga, by Tomochika Miyano. It’s a great series and well worth looking out, it’s a mystery why they originally cancelled it. For my version I’ve changed the setting from Japan to England and of course the names, then I’ve added some new characters and situations to produce Jamie and the Peach. You can read up to chapter 9 of the original now but this is the start of my book 2, if you haven't read all of Book 1 yet hurry across to Scaramouch here

The meal was delicious, I won't bore you with the details but I’m gonna try to find out how to do some of this stuff. Mrs Brownlea, despite her apparent lack of interest earlier was, besides a great cook, quite chatty and before dessert had extracted almost my entire life history! Karen surprisingly let her mother drive the conversation as the information was gradually squeezed from me.

The Center: Patient Zero -Part 1
by:
Starbuck
In the language of epidemiology, patients are numbered sequentially. Once an epidemic goes public it is patient one who gets the news coverage or journal articles written about them. What is less known is that there are unrecognized patients who predate the first acknowledged case. Sometimes these people are carriers, like Typhoid Mary, but oftentimes they are merely the unsung victims who's stories are not tied into the whole until long after the papers are written. Jesse Lee was such a person, this is his story.

Fiction by Johnny Cumlately.
A cold war spy plot that went wrong!
Boris was born in Kostroma, an industrial town on the banks of the Volga River, some distance north of Moscow. His father was Russian, a marine engineer, but his mother was English, so he was brought up to be bilingual. His father had been seconded to a British company involved in building a large oil exploration platform and had met and married his mother while there. As a very young lad, Boris had naturally wavy fair hair and was small for his age, so that he was sometimes mistaken for a girl.
