《Lieutenant Garrett》Senior Year

Chapter One
Senior Year
This was it. This was my last day of senior year at Beckton High School. I looked over at my best friends Lena and Kara anticipating the screech of the final bell.
Lena Robertson was a gorgeous red-haired genius who also happened to be an extreme social butterfly.
Kara Hall on the other hand, was a quiet, and very introverted person who could spend hours upon hours reading a Nicholas Sparks novel and drinking tea underneath her covers.
I, was somewhere in the middle. I was an average student, and a little bit socially awkward. I love to draw and have a knack for interior design.
The three of us met in grade seven during a class project. Since then, we have been through so much together. They had helped me through my breakup with my ex-boyfriend Jay Timmons after I caught him cheating with one of my now ex-friends. I don't know what I would do without them.
I was snapped back into reality and away from my thoughts by the sound of my freedom. The school bell. I quickly gathered my things and my best friends and we rushed off to our lockers.
Beckton California was a small town about an hour or so south of LA. Within twenty minutes of the final bell, we were pulling into my driveway.
I fit my key into the lock of the front door and twisted the handle. I was about to push the big heavy door open when Kara and Lena rushed past me and beat me to it.
I closed the door behind us and followed the girls up to my room.
My house wasn't all that big, since it was just my mom and I. My dad left us when I was about ten and I haven't heard from him since. So, my mum decided to leave all of our family memories behind back in San Francisco, and buy us a small house right on the beach here in Beckton.

As soon as I arrived in my room, I threw my backpack across the room and onto my desk chair, and flopped dramatically onto my bed next to Lena.
She had already made herself at home as per usual, and Kara was trying to find herself a comfortable position on my chaise.
"What do we do now?" Kara asked after she finally got comfy.
The three of us looked at each other with the same evil looking expression on our faces.
No words were needed after that. I ran downstairs to grab some popcorn and any candy I could find, while Lena and Kara located every sappy, romantic, cliché movie that I owned.
I returned only minutes later with three bowls of popcorn and multiple bags of M&Ms. Kara put The Notebook into the DVD player and we got comfy on my bed ready to start our movie marathon.
After we had finished about six movies, five bags of popcorn and countless M&Ms, we all decided that we needed some girl talk.
Lena and her boyfriend Jason had recently broken it off after a year of seeing each other. He got accepted to a university in British Columbia and was extremely thrilled about going. The only thing holding him back was Lena. They decided that they didn't want to have a long-distance relationship so they broke it off.
These two crazy kids were 100% perfect for each other. And that's saying a lot coming from her best friend.
Lena has been taking it pretty hard so our girl talk consisted of mostly Kara and I cuddling Lena and giving her soothing reassurance that everything would in fact be alright.
That night consisted of mostly Lena going on about how perfect her and Jason were for each other and how they were meant to be together. She would say things like, "why does the universe have it out for me?? What did I o wrong??" and at times like this, I start to tear up. I hate hearing one of my best friends in a state like this. So, like any normal person I change the topic which usually works out smoothly. But I didn't dare to tonight.

Today, June 16th would have been Lena and Jason's two year anniversary. Normally the vent-sessions we have for Lena are bad, but, this one, was a whole lot worse.
Kara and I just kinda sat there and agreed with what Lena was saying and every "don't you ever think like that!!!" was held back because we knew that today was a hard day for her and she needed to get it off of her chest.
My mum had gotten home from work at about five and I quickly asked her if the girls could stay the night. Even though I knew that I pretty much didn't need to ask anymore. My mum had gotten almost accustomed to Lena and Kara staying the night on Fridays.
It was about four in the morning and after hours of trying to get Lena to calm down, we all fell asleep.

Fragments of Glass
before the 1939-1945 War, most churches in England had stained glass windows, but despite local people's best efforts many of these windows were smashed in the bombing. What could be repaired was repaired, but in many churches all they could do was reassemble the remaining fragments randomly, with extra bits of clear glass added to eke them out to fill the windows. That is what I imagined for my collection of short stories: fragments of stained glass, bits of robe, bits of faces, all sorts of odds and ends randomly stuck together. And with quite a lot of clear fragments among the coloured ones. Just broken pieces of stories that anyone can look through.

A Nation of Distances (possibly a dystopian love story)
Michael lives in a toxic macho world with extreme male hierarchy. When he gets a weird rating that makes his place even more problematic he's forced to choose a fiancée at a Wife School, and he slowly discovers more about the other side of the great divide between the sexes in The Nation. If only the world would stop being so complicated... On the other side there's Megan, who's more interested in books than in marriage, and the unpredictable Eliza who seems to have a connection with Micheal already. Will they be able to cross the distance and become friends against all the rules of their own world, or will they just be crushed? Are positive relationships between men and women even possible? And is there a way to change the world or is that just a naive thought of a silly wimp? 'A Nation of Distances' is a slightly dystopian dialogue-heavy drama set in a low sci-fi future setting about the war between the sexes, disconnect and friendship. The genre will fluctuate in between more slice-of-life parts and soft sci-fi drama with possible romantic elements, with alternating lead and switching perspectives once more of the main characters are established. Content Warning: Certain concepts and scenes might be disturbing and/or triggering to some, even though the story itself won't be extremely heavy most of the time. Sexism as a double-edged sword destructive to both sexes is an important part of the story, but so is friendship.Note that all descriptions of persons and places are purely fictional and made up by the writer, and any resemblance with anything in the real world is a coincidence, since the real world is not supposed to be dystopian anyway!
