Summary
“You said it was bad,” Lena managed to hoarsely respond after a beat too long.
Nodding, Lillian stared up at the ceiling for a moment, her throat bobbing as her lips twisted wryly. “I’m dying. Stage four pancreatic cancer.”
“How long do you have?”
“A month, maybe two.”
“Oh.”
-
Returning home for the first time in twelve years to the news that her mother is dying, the last thing that Lena wants is to run into the childhood best friend she hasn't spoken to since she left Midvale all those years ago. Especially when said friend was the reason Lena swore she'd never go back home again.
Still harbouring the sting of teenage love and rejection, as well as the pressure of her unsatisfying career and resentment towards her mother, Lena's life is brought to a halt in her hometown as she's forced to confront years of repressed feelings and the truth about what she really wants out of life while waiting for her mother to die.

Summary
Three weeks. Twenty one days since the Cullens left. Five hundred hours since he left her alone in the woods with nothing but a broken heart and a promise that it would be as if they never existed.
Needless to say, it came as quite a shock when Bella walked into the cafeteria on Monday and saw that the table in the corner was occupied.Series

Summary
The Dreaming stands, but Dream... Dream is gone.
In the aftermath of the assault on the Dreaming, the Kindly Ones delivered their judgement, their punishment - for spilling blood - and yet, Dream is gone... but not yet returned. Death does not understand why. Endless remain... and yet Dream... is just gone.
Only because the Kindly Ones did not take his life that day. No. It's not much of a punishment if it was what he craved most.
No, instead, they trap him in an unending nightmare - living the moment he killed his son over and over again. Until he breaks, until he begs, until the end of time - Dream doesn't know. He just knows there's no escape. There's no help coming. He's alone.
And every day that he kills his son - just to wash the blood away again and again... He desires for this to end, he would beg for death, he wallows in despair, and he worries he's becoming delirious. The touch of his siblings reside in him, but he accepts they will never come for him. He deserves this. It's his punishment.
His siblings don't care - he tells himself... unaware they don't even know he's alive, and if they did - none of them, not even Desire, would agree.

Summary
"Fate does not ask, it delivers" - Mother always said. The denotation of that phrase had always confused and eluded me as a little girl... until that night. On the balcony of my abode, my 12th miserable Christmas Eve on Earth, I witnessed its manifestation... It was the day I met the love of my life. But this is going to be a long and colorful story.
***
When 12-year-old Enid Sinclair managed to convince her neurotic mother to let her spend the holidays with her Aunt Florence in New Jersey, she never imagined that on that winter night her life would change forever.
Or
Two idiots fall in love at Christmas.
