Belmerica
Iris
There on the dance floor stood two people, one a beautiful women the other a handsome young man. Just like everyone else at the party there identity was hidden by a mask. They danced together staring into each other's eyes seeing the sadness hidden in their depths. As the night wore on they told stories that no one else knew. The two fell in love as they danced and at the end of the night when they took off the masks there stood Natalia and Alfred the two most different people ever but both could understand the pain in the other's irises.
Face Down
There he stood staring at her and all her weakness, the make-up to cover the bruises from her abusive older brother that she loves and would never bring charges against had been washed away by the river water. Alfred the boy who loved her; she was Natalia the younger sister of Ivan. Alfred loved her and wanted to protect her and find out why Ivan took so much pleasure in hurting her so. One day Natalia left and never returned to school she was found dead in the river by her house, beaten to death, in the mud with her face down.
Sharada
There she went down the halls of the high school again. Wearing paint stained pants and a ripped t-shirt with a dazed look in her eyes as if she was on another plant as she listened to the music from her headphones. She said she wanted to become a star because then her brother would never ignore her and would love her more and maybe marry her. Little did Natalia know there was one boy that would never ignore her and would never call her dreams stupid or impossible to achieve. When she does become a star he vowed never to miss one of her shows and send her flowers under the name sharada.
The Grass is Blue
Natalia was heart-broken, Alfred her boyfriend had just broken up with her. She could not stop crying and she began to hide herself away in her own mind. People that talked to her said that she was going crazy. Natalia began to believe that everything was the opposite of what it really was because it didn't hurt so much if she convinced herself that she never loved Alfred, crying was fun, laughter hurt, the sky was green, and the grass was blue.
Accidentally in Love
Alfred and Natalia were exact opposites but yet they loved each other. One could never see one without the other on a weekend night. They would go a club, where Alfred would spin Natalia across the floor and then take her to for strawberry ice-cream with chocolate sauce (her favorite). Whenever someone asked how they met each other they would shrug and say it was an accident. If you asked why they loved each other, they will always tell you that they are accidentally in love.
Dirty Little Secret
No one knew that they were doing together. No one knew that they were doing these things not for love but for lust. They would go over to one of their flats to fool around whenever they needed stress relief. Alfred would go over whenever he and his boyfriend Arthur had a fight. Natalia would go over whenever her brother refused to talk to her. They knew this was wrong to use the other for release but so what it was their dirty little secret.
Blue Lips
He had to go to war to protect her and his country. She made him promise to come safely from the battlefields of Europe and Japan. One day 8 months later she saw a military car pull up to their house. Out stepped a private to tell her Major Alfred F. Jones had died in service. She arranged a funeral for her only love. At the funeral right before he was placed in the ground Natalia gave her husband one last kiss to his cold dead blue lips.
Love Song
Alfred was a song writer and Natalia was the singer who sang his songs. Natalia noticed something, Alfred would never writer her any love songs. He said that he couldn't write a love song for because he had never been in love. The truth was he loved her and the only love songs he could write were for her. He told her as long as he wrote he could never write for her a song to tell someone she loved them. Natalia fired him and when she received a packet with one song from him in the mail, and that song was about her and it was a love song.
Hero
Alfred's goal in life was to be a hero but he was never able to save anyone. Whenever he tried to help he would cause more harm than good and this broke his heart. Little did he know that he saved one girl from herself just by loving her and for Natalia he would always be a hero.
Whisper in the Dark
Alfred bought a new house, that was not special what was special is that this house had been the scene of a violent murder 20 years ago. A young girl by the name of Natalia had been beaten to death by her older brother Ivan in her bedroom. People said that the house was hunted by her spirit but this did not bother Alfred because he did not believe in ghosts. That is he did not believe in ghost until he at night he began to hear whispers in the dark.
Fairytale
Natalia did not believe in happily ever after, or love at first site. She thought that was just a load of hug wash but then she met Alfred. She thought she was living a dream when she dated her but then she found he was only dating her to get to her better looking sister. This destroyed her heart and reaffirmed her belief that life was never and could never be like bedtime stories of love and ancient fairytales.
That's Not My Name
Alfred and Natalia had been dating for 3 weeks know but Natalia wondered if Alfred even knew her times. He would always call her by her last name Arlovaskya or some shortened form of her name like Nat, Natty, Natasha, or Lia. This drove her crazy and he would always laugh at her anger. Natalia decided to break up with him. Alfred asked her to stay with him but when he asked he called her Nat, and her only response to that was "That's not my name."
Imaginary
Natalia always dreamed of having a handsome boyfriend that would love her. She wished so hard she created a boyfriend for herself named Alfred. There was only one problem was Alfred was not real but Natalia thought he truly was real and that he actually existed. She would never listen to anyone when they tried to tell her he was not real and that he was only in her head. Natalia just kept believing he was there and that everyone else was jealous and wanted Alfred for themselves. Natalia spent the rest of her life believing in a boyfriend that was only imaginary.
