hey GUYS AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU! chances are you're probably not in the blogosphere at the moment because you're celebrating with your fam, but for when you come back -
HERE'S THAT CHRISTMAS PRESENT (short story) I PROMISED YOU!
^^ Also, I want to say sorry for disappearing for the past month. I had so much school work to catch up on that I had to put breaks on all my other hobbies. That means that I didn't even finish with the Shared Wip Tag - but no worries. I'll talk a bit more about The 101st Human in the future.
Fun fact: The Boy Next Door and Sipping on Moonlight actually tied places but I ended up writing The Boy Next Door because a) it came to me easier, and b) it actually looked like it would win at first but then I had some comments come in a week or two later so!! The Boy Next Door it is!! It's about 4.4 k and 12 pages long.
(also I wanted to change the title but came up with nothing better???)
An enormous thanks to my critic who made this story 1000% better than it originally was.
And so I present you with ... my story!!!
brief synopsis:
No one owns corner stores anymore - no one except the quiet social outcast Benjamin Reeves. And Robin Greer is more than happy to revel in the mysterious and miserable rumors about him that circulate her high school. That is, until Christmas comes, bringing with it the first snow in decades ...
