Hi!! How's everybody doing?

A bunch of authors have done it before and it will not be new or groundbreaking, but I was thinking about setting up a series of little one shots. My short one-shots. Why short? Because they will go from 2 to 5 thousand words and will not be as developed and detailed like the regular chapters I usually write.

They can go from chapters that I wrote for a story but finally decided to take out or just some random ideas that came to me but that I don't really see going anywhere nor want to develop further. Some will be rated T and others M. I don't usually write K... but hey!! You never know!! lol

I am currently working on three updates for three different stories at the same time but frankly, I am not sure when they'll be ready to post because my mind keeps switching back and forth between all three. So, I will post these little short one-shots in between real updates.

Now, in the future, after I am done with the stories I am working on now, I may come back to those ideas and develop one of them. So, if you would like for an idea to be picked up more than the other, let me know. The story that got the most reviews, requests and a wider audience, will be the one that I will pick up.

And also, I wanted to let you guys know that I decided to take upon your own ideas.

Some of you have written to me, telling me about their ideas for stories. I am busy with mine so it is very hard for me to accept any right now. But, if you guys want me to write a short one shot about an idea, tell me about it.

Send me your ideas, by PMs or reviews, then I will choose each month which one I will put into a one shot. Tell me the idea, what rating you want it in and I will select the one that inspires me most. I will post the last date of entry for ideas submission and the next one shot will be about the idea that I have chosen. So you will have to stay tuned to see if your idea had been picked up. You guys will have a whole month to submit your ideas as I will only update once a month or so. Depending on what my mind comes up with.

They can be just one word, you would like to see me develop or a sentence, you'd like to figure in the short one shot. And don't forget to tell me what rating you want it in. I will not go over 5 thousand words. If I judge that a story will need to go above that limit, I will write you and let you know.

I will not abandon any of the stories that I have going now. I am still and will work on them, updating as fast as I can. All of them.

But I like to challenge myself. So, challenge me. Give me a difficult word, a sentence that is hard to understand, a concept that is very abstract. Anything to keep my mind working and keep my imagination alive. Please.

So, I hope that you will like this initiative and will send me what you want me to write about. And please, tell me if you like the idea and if you will participate.

I will never say it enough because it is true and you guys prove it to me everyday. I have the best readers around in this fandom and I feel blessed to have you with me.

Thank you very much for your support, telling me your inspiring stories, writing me about random and funny stuff, your great reviews... I could go on and on... you guys are just amazing!!!

Take care and lots of love.

So, here is the first short one shot of the series. This one was an outtake of I Am Free. I had decided to take it out because I had thought of something else for the chapter. If you have read IAF, it is the day of Troy's 21rst Birthday. I never had the courage to throw that scene away nor to put it in an other story since I felt like it was their feelings that had been described and that it belonged to them. I have made a few changes to make it stand on its own but, it is the Troy and *little girl* Gabi of IAF (I miss them so much lol)

So... enjoy!!!
