Lost

I walked carefully down the rain stained pavement that weaved close by the creek. I put my hands into the pockets my my rain jacket letting out a deep sigh. Thousands of thoughts screamed in my head all begging for attention. I tried to shove them all away and ignore the pain in my chest. 

"How does it feel Jade?" A cold hard voice called out from my right. I stopped my whole body tense as I scowled at the hooded figure standing a few feet away. 

"Go away," I hissed my hands clenched into fists in my pockets. 

"Not happy with your best friend?" He asked. 

"Shut up!" I snarled.

He laughed, "we could change that you know."
"I'll fix it myself!" I growled, "I don't need your help and I won't make any deals with you!"

He smiled, "You will. Sooner or later." He turned around disappearing leaving me with my silent mind. 

Sanditron Prologue

People in dark clothing stood all around me. A man stood before the three holes with the caskets hovering over them.
"Sterling, Jonathan, and Maria Jackson were some of the best in our forces," The man, Joesph the new leader of the Jet society, stated. "They protected this world with their lives, and for that we are very grateful. May they rest in peace." The girl beside me hiccuped tears streaming down her face. I wrapped an arm aroudn her frail shoulders her blond curls drapping over my arm.
"The role of the Jet forces leader, that Sterling held, would have been passed to his son Jonathan," Joesph explained, "The role must be passed down to his daughter." His glance landed on me, and I let go of the girl stepping forward. Joesph pulled out a pen from his jacket holding out his hand for my left arm. I put it in his hand closing my eyes.
"Before I finish the final step of prounancing Jade Jackson, the new jet forces leader, does anyone object?" Joesph asked. A dagger whizzed between joesph and I landing in a tree close by. I glanced over at the tall figure concealed in a black cloak another dagger twirling in his hand.
"I object," A dark eerie voice stated from the figure. People all around me reached for their weapons as Joesph stepped between me and the figure.
"You are not welcome here," Joesph snarled. I could barely make out a grin under the figures hood.
"I'll leave," He stated, "but know that I will be back and you'll have to find a new Jet forces leader." Darkness surrounded him and soon he was gone.

Runaway

I ran.
Never looking back.
Not listening to the voices.
Trying to clear my head.
Where was I suppose to go?
To find an escape from it all?
The life I had come by that was not what it seemed.
Haunted by the shouts and yells
Plagued by the constant requirements
It's not about them
It's about me
So just leave me alone
Because I'm being who I want to be.

Dream

(This story kinda came from a dream I had the other night)

I lay close to him starring down at the orange cirle branded on the black shorts I wore.
"You alright?" He asked gently stroking my hair. I let out a sigh clinging on tighter to him. You could hear the breathing of the other people in the room all sleeping in their bunks. I glanced up at the cieling as it seemed to bare down on us.
"Don't leave me," I barely whispered not sure if he heard me or not.
"I promise," He said soft. The door to the room burst open and an orange light filled the room.
"That's him!" I heard someone shout as they grabbed onto the boy.
"No!" I screamed as they pulled him away. He held onto my hand for a while till they pulled us apart. I felt tears flood to my vision and spill down my cheeks.

Hope

I stood there my hands plunged deep into my coat pockets.
"Jade," He said softly, and I looked up at him. He smiled, and I felt my cheeks flush. He walked over tucking a stray piece of my hair behind my ear.
"Why didn't you say something sooner?" I asked looking into his eyes.
"I didn't think you thought of me the same way," He stated placing a hand lightly on the small of my back. I leaned closer to him wanting this to be amazing and wonderful as I had always thought.
"I do though," I said softly. He smiled wrapping his arms around me pulling me close to him. I blushed more as he leaned down pressing his lips to mine. I kissed him back wrapping my arms around his neck. My first kiss. Simple and blissful.

Peace

I closes my eyes relaxing back in the softness of the reclining chair. I heard him move in the chair next to me and peaked out seeing him get up.
I groaned, "Not again." He came over onto my recliner, and I prepared for him to squish me. I blinked in surprise as he laid next to me, and I put my head on his shoulder. I felt him set his head ontop of mine and couldn't help but smile. I could have stayed like that forever as he put his arm around mine and gently kissed my head. I knew that he wouldn't tell me for a long while. I had the same feelings for him but neither of us dared to say so.
"We're friends Jade," I barely heard him say, but felt the tone in his voice of wanting different. Why couldn't he tell me? Because he knew I wouldn't be able to bring myself to tell him.

A helping hand

I felt them fall from my eyes before I could stop them. I let them fall putting my head in my hands sobbing. I could hear the distant sound of the voices shouting at one another.
"Make it stop," I cried softly, "Make it go away." My phone buzzed in my lap, and I glanced down chokign on a coming up sob at the sight of his number. I typed back through blurry tears feeling my heart yearn to feel his arms around me and to feel better. I clutched my phone ignoring all of the other texts besides his. Only wanting to hear from him. The thing that would help me relieve the pain of the world crashing down on me. I shuddering crying harder feeling my heart fill with relief.
