Nightmares (Intro and Chapters 1&2)

Introduction

Everybody has their story, its just that mine is a little… well, different.

Chapter 1

When I was a little girl I had a very normal family. My Mom took care of me and the house. And my Dad worked as a car salesman. Life was typical, average, easy, and quiet. I went to normal schools, and lived a normal life. That was that it was so normal I thought it boring. My friends and I sometimes went to the movies, the beach, school, etc. But when I got home, it was always the same, and even though people were living there, it was almost as if the house, and the people in it were dead.
My Mom and Dad trusted me as much as they trusted any teenage daughter. In other words, not much. To me the house was a cage; a cage that was filled with too many pillows. At the time, little did I know that a simple walk down the street with my Mom and Dad would scar me for the rest of my life.

Chapter 2

My neighborhood was clean and neat, sometimes I though too much so. There were lots of birds, and enough trees to make you want to scream during a hurricane.
On one of those typical August afternoons, you know, hazy, hot and humid, chance of thundershowers… My Mom, Dad, and I went for a walk, which was unusual for us. We had never gone walking before, at least as far as I could remember. My parents weren’t exactly outdoorsy folks. When we were a block or two away from home, and near the tire swing where I used to play, we saw a man sitting there. He looked like he could have been homeless, that was except for a fancy black car and driver that was waiting for him.
His hair was a little to long to be cute, but no quite long enough to pull back. His face was young, but he looked worn and tired, as if he hadn’t really slept in days. But he was probably no more than twenty-five.
When we passed he gave us a nod, smiled, and waved at us. The weird part was that he winked at my parents. They waved back friendly as ever.
“Who is that guy?” I thought to myself. But he just sat there on the tire swing, and we kept on walking.
I later wrote of the incident as coincidence. People were always mistaking my Dad for some computer person, whose name I can never remember, now especially since his… and my Mom’s death…

Totally New Fav Song!

Ok, so I know its not my story, but it is a great song. I have a link to a video on my profile, but here are the lyrics:

"Desert Rose"

By: Sting

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in vain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of fire

Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire

And in the flames

Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire

This desert rose

Each of her veils, a secret promise

This desert flower

No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

And as she turns

This way she moce in the logic of my dreams

This fire burns

I realize nothing's as it seems

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in vain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain

I life my gaze to empty skiees above

I close my eyes

This rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of her love

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in vain

I dream of love as time runs through my had

Sweet desert rose

each of her veils a secret promise

This desert flower

No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

Sweet desert rose

This memore of Eden haunts us all

This desert flower

This rare perfume, is the sweet intoxication of the fall

I Just Cant Quite Get It Part 2

Thanks! Now she has three friends. 2 girls and 1 guy. Any ideas? Its almost impossible for me to name characters. Ill post the first part of the story soon!

I Just Cant Quite Get It

Im working on writing a story, thriller. You know, the usual kind of stuff. But I cant think of any names that seem suitable. Please help me!

1) A girl, 16 in search for her parents.
2) Her Dad, he disappears during the middle of the night.
3) Her Mom, she is murdered when her father disappears.
4) A creepy guy that looks homeless except for a black fancy car and a driver.

Thats all Ive got so far, but if you have any idea of any other names I might be able to use that would be great!

Thanks So Much!
