"...I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Years Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spent the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible."

Bethany Katie Rose -has been shy, quiet and insecure for most of her life. She's one of those girls whom taken interest in literature; novels, writing, etc.., and also the arts; singing, acting and most being creative instead of obsessing over boys, and makeup and parties. It's been her escape during her tormented, lived days being closed up. It's a way to express herself without saying anything through words, she's taken most of her school projects seriously and sometimes going overboard because the end results have to be perfect.

She fears presentations, socializing, and lifestyle changes. She's one of those girls who likes to live in one particular area where no changes would leave her breathless and scared. She's afraid of letting go, of places that contain the most precious memories which kept her grounded and somewhat confident. One of the upcoming and most important changes she's currently going through is the transition into high school, and most summer nights she's been worrying about having to go through the same process she once did 9 years ago and it left her being the shy and quiet one, and that's what her reputation was for the next 9 years. Now after finally leaving, she's been dreaming about how'd life and high school would be like if she became more sociable and likable.

The reason she's found Fanfiction in the first place was through her brother, who knew her love for reading kept her in a calm and stable place. It's where her imagination finally became somewhat reality because it's written through other authors with an indescribable way of describing their stories and characters. It had inspired her to become more courageous and publish some of her fantasies that dreams cannot be long enough to come true. It is also a way to spread awareness of certain topics that haven't become really important, but the topics have deeply inspired her in a way that she wants to do the same. It's her way in making a change in the world because she's one of those people who feel that she doesn't have a voice.

She's also been left wondering how she manages to act herself with her family and closest friends, but not with others. It leaves her frustrated because she feels as if she's the only shy girl in the world. Music's been a huge part of her life, without music, she wouldn't have gotten inspiration or gotten back up on her feet after personal issues. She believes that most of the music's lyrics she's been listening to is the track of her life, she'd never leave home with her IPod nor slept without the IPod playing. Not a single minute wasted without music or entertainment such as beautiful, romantic movies or youtube videos, mostly vlogs and fashion videos, and extraordinary clips, or Disney Channel shows in her childhood.

She's been blessed with the most wonderful family; containing the parents and two older brothers, and close family friends or school friends who encourages her to step out of her comfort zone. Without their support she wouldn't have gain the courage to tell the boy she's like for year how she felt, because without telling him, she would have left school devastated she didn't confess and know her answer. Eventually she learned to move on after being gently rejected.

Although she faced a rough year with her closest friends breaking apart and become smaller groups, she had been alone for the first 2 weeks of 2012-2013 school year. A group of girls had taken her in, learned to appreciate her and care for her as a friend, though she still felt sad that she had lost the girls that she had known long before the other girls. She blamed the one girl who was the typical girly-girl, and she was surprised when the two groups she hanged out with had declared, they had hated her guts. Through that, they had reunited into the old group but still broke apart to hang out. Even through that, she had managed to form a close bond, once again, with her best friend and even brought her to her group.

There are just simple and important things in life that people shouldn't take for granted. Bethany learned that the hard way. There are fears you can't always face, for example; spiders and snakes, they'll always be there. There will always been a down pointed in your life, but unless you do something and take a risk, you can take the high road again. There'll always been changes in life, without them, there wouldn't be stronger bonds or new relationships, changes are something you'll need to learn to embrace, eventually it'll take you on a healthy lifestyle. Also, there are things you can't always let go on like first crushes and other things, it's fine, eventually you'll learn to let go without even thinking about it.

"Life's not about waiting for the storm to pass...it's about learning to dance in the rain."

UPDATED AUTHOR'S NOTE ( April 4th, 2014)

August 30th, 2013
A/N: Hello my lovelies! It's official in about 3 days, school is about to start for me. I've been saying to all of you about this, but I'm beginning high school as a sophomore. I'm terrified but excited for the fresh changes happening though I dwell on the past. I've tried my best updating as quick as possible but my mood changes and just being general, lazy gets in the way of updating and sometimes that could put a damper on my how my writing turns out. Sometimes it could be really great, and the next day it wouldn't be as great. On that note, I need inspiration for the next chapter, that's the most important thing I need, mostly it comes from songs which I'm running out of, as well as scenes from novels, or shows or movies that I could get some inspiration from.

I'm afraid I cannot update my stories, though two are on HIATUS. But with school and everything, I have to get prepared. Not to mention, I have my life to deal with, there's plenty of things happening in my life that I can't put aside for once. I'll try to do my best once high school starts to get another chapter up. Please do not be angry, there's just things I need to deal with. There will be no updates Saturday, Sunday, and the rest of that week.

Wishing you well. Hopefully, I'll hear some more from you through private messaging or the next update. Never falter to message me, I'll be on 24/7 to check on my stories and messages. Goodbye for now!

- Bethany

September 6th, 2013
A/N: Hello my lovelies! So school started for me, and as many of you know...I've begun high school and let me say that I already want school to be over. I never felt so depressed, alone and terrified about the current school year. There was too many changes that I can't cope, and I'm not adapting well to the environment. I haven't made much friends because most from my old school went to another high school so basically I'm the loner who hates group projects because I can't ever gather the courage to ask to join a group, or I hate sitting there pathetically while people look at you and offer to let you join them out of pity. Alongside that, I can't overcome my shyness, I've been trying but I just can't. The classes are much different than what I'm used to and I'm struggling to keep up, not to mention I already have homework that last about 7 hours so once I get home and eat, I'm doing homework till midnight and I can't even get on my laptop because I have to wake up at 6 o'clock am, kill me now.

I never felt so alone, depressed and stressed about school. I couldn't get to my escape for 3 straight days. Not to mention, I feel so heart broken because of a really sweet, nice and artist guy who likes me but it's not mutual. I feel like I've broken his heart, and he's written this heartwarming, emotional and touching poem that's specifically about girls like me but about me. I never noticed such things about me, and I can't even say something to him to get him to move on and get a girl deserves him.

I currently hate my life. It's keeping me from updating and I'm terribly sorry. I just miss the old ways, I hate changes and I always will. So yeah, that's it. My rant is over, that's basically why I haven't updated in a long time. Once again, sorry. Goodbye.

- Bethany

September, 17th, 2013
A/N: Hello my lovelies! It's moi; Bethany and wow it's been such a long time since I've last reported my doings. You guys have been recently been reviewing for me to update and trust me, I am trying to find some time to fit in bit by bit of my next chapter it's just that...high school is way more hectic than I assumed and I've already almost broken down in tears because I'm losing faith in myself and my studies. I have homework everyday, it takes all my time up, my only free time I have is on the weekends which I have to use up for homework time! I take off 15 minutes to write up another part in the next chapter but really, even typing this down is making me fall behind in my schedule to complete my workload of homework! Damn...this is my one night without Math 10 Honors homework, yet I have English, Science, Cosmetology booklets, a quiz to study for, 9 questions to finish, not to mention another quiz in cosmetology.

I've recently had a dream about the Pevensies, Edmund and Alaura and I know I miss writing another chapter for Blinded. Thank goodness I got the chapter up or else the sequel would have never been made. ;) But yeah, hope everyone is doing good. I am feeling depressed by the changes but hopefully things will change. This is your Bad Boy and Blinded author, stay tuned.

October 19th, 2013
A/N: HAPPY OCTOBER! It's moi; Bethany and hello my lovelies! It's been a rather long time, approximately a month I believe. Sorry I couldn't update anything or any author's note. I've been very busy with high school, and I've been struggling still with the transition and to be honest, I never expected high school to be like this. I've been battling with accepting everything and it kinda changes my mood with updating and my writing. English isn't going well, although I love writing and all that, it's just a stress-free zone and I honestly suck at English. Since I haven't had time to write, it's been a very stressful 2 months... I havne't abandoned my stories, more-likely Blinded, just slow on updating. I've been working on a chapter but it doesn't settle with me write so I'm rewriting. Sorry for the hold-up, the rest of my stories are TEMPORARILY DISCONTINUED (excluding Blinded) because to be honest I don't know where it goes, so I'm seeing if I can continue with it.

The following week are English presentations and I'm sick to my stomach of talking publicly. So bear with me, I'm going through a very difficult time. Hopefully times could change and in a heartbeat too!

December 6th, 2013
A/N: HAPPY DECEMBER! It's Bethany after the longest time of not being on fanfiction, let me tell you, it's been torture much like school. High school wasn't what I expected and I'm still adjusting, I've managed to make some friends and it wasn't easy getting out of my comfort zone. Still a few problems with my grades but I have my parents helping me out and being supportive, love them to death. Anyways, I haven't updated for the LONGEST time and I feel so guilty for not doing so. I'm pretty sure I've lost some readers and I've kicked myself in the shins because I promised to have the stories updated by 2 weeks from when I last updated, and it didn't work out as it has been 3 months. So terribly sorry, I'm trying my hardest to balance everything out but at this point it's hard so please be patient and I haven't abandoned my stories yet, never will.

- Bethany

March 23rd, 2014
A/N: HAPPY MARCH! It's Bethany, on fanfiction after billions of years later. I deeply apologize for keeping all of you guys waiting for the next update, truthfully I've been redoing and working on a couple chapters of my stories. More importantly, Blinded because my main priority - fanfiction wise - is to get that story up and going, and for me to get one step closer to saying "I've finished two stories". Anyway, I'm super excited to get the story moving, I've gained a couple more ideas by watching the third adaption to The Chronicles of Narnia (film series), as well as I've gained some inspiration to continue the story.

Anyway, I'm hoping to publish some chapters on Blinded during my spring break which is this week. So keep checking your story alerts.

-Bethany

April 4th, 2014
A/N: HAPPY APRIL! Hello my lovelies, I know what I said on the last author's note and I haven't updated during 'spring' break. I placed quotations there because during the spring break all that happened was it kept snowing and snowing, and the temperature kept dropping. It seemed more like the beginning of winter and winter break. It wasn't nice. Anyway, I'm over a half way done, I kinda lost my touch on Edmund's characteristics and decided to dedicate some of my time trying to get that 'bad boy' attitude back. I'm struggling with Emma because I keep slipping into Alaura mode and then I refocus on Emma and it slipped back to Alaura mode sometimes and yeah it's frustrating. Anyway, marks were due and to be honest I'm really proud of my grades. I don't feel depressed anymore, I feel more outgoing and I'm looking foward so yeah time heals.

I think the next update would be around the next 2 or three weeks, depends on how much free time I have. I honestly do have a lot of homework that takes 8 hours in total for all my subjects. The next update is going to be on Blinded. So stay tuned, I know I keep saying that. :)

-Bethany

June 25th, 2014
A/N: HAPPY JUNE! Hello my fanfiction friends, it's been awhile since I've last released an update on what's happening. Summer's here and school's out. I'm here to publicly (kinda) announce that I'm returning to fanfiction, there won't be any more 3 months wait on an update. I will be focusing on updating stories and publishing one-shots again, like old times before high school got in the way. Just for a heads up, chapter 7 on Blinded should be coming soon and a one-shot on Kick will be posted as soon as I finish it. And that's about it for my projects currently. I'm going to make the best of summer, watching movies and television shows, watching youtube videos, doing some badminton and volleyball outside, hanging out with my friends at the mall, further in the city, maybe having a picnic with them. Just making the best of the 2 months until we have to go back to experience another school year of torture. So that's kinda about it, nothing new.

- Bethany

September 27, 2014
A/N: HAPPY AUTUMN! Hello my fanfiction friends, it's been a while since I've last posted an author's note. I wanted to apologize for my lack of updating, I know I used to update frequently back then when I was still in junior high but I've really grown busy with school pushing at me. This year and the following school year is really important to me and my future. I've been wanting to update my stories for a while but I haven't found the time to do so with unit exams and quizzes and assignments every week which takes up my weekends too. To those following Blinded I'm deeply sorry for the constant one month or two month update, I've been working on ideas during period two at school because the subject is just three-credit and it's basically straightforward, and I have some of the story figured out. If you don't know me, I don't plan my stories anymore because it doesn't work out on me. I've been thinking about Blinded even on the bus and train ride home, and yeah. But when I get on the computer for the next chapter, I'm struggling to place down the next chapter. So please bear with me. The next update might not be for another two weeks or so.

I promise all of you that I'll be working on my stories. And as you guys know, I needed to be very motivated and bursting with ideas to write the next chapter. Yes I know I've only created seven chapters in one year and I'm pretty sad about it because with Bad Boy I've completed 30 chapters in a year and a half, but I guess it makes sense since I was in junior high and not high school.

- Bethany

December 6, 2014
A/N: HAPPY DECEMBER! First of all I would like to give my apologies not updating after so all. I hate keeping you guys waiting and in the dark about my stories, I don't like knowing I haven't updated in 2 months, man time flies when you're in school. I seriously don't mean to not update on purpose, I've been so busy with homework and schoolwork, and all those fun unit tests and stuff. I've have too much going on approximately 5 tests each freaking week and about 2 tests are on freaking Mondays! Meaning I can't even have the weekends off to work on my stories. I've been trying to find time to do my updating but my schedule is jam packed with studying, even if I slack off for 10 minutes I'll later realize that I'll need those damn 10 minutes to finish what I'm doing so I'm so sorry. I'm sorry for ranting but I just haven't found the time to get inspired and think of some new creative ideas to keep y'all on your toes. I just wanted to let you guys know that I won't be updating until Christmas break, maybe before that hopefully but not likely. I'm deeply sorry and I'll try to make it up to y'alls by updating long, fulfilling chapters if that's possible.

Until the holidays,
-Bethany

This is some general information about Bethany if you'd like to know more about the author.

Bethany enjoys many homemade delights, especially made for meals and desserts but she also enjoys trying out takeouts from various cultural restaurants or dine-ins. She isn't very keen on cooking herself, but enjoys trying new recipes and thinks it's better to have some past experiences before she's out of the house and cooking for herself. She enjoys Italian the most, and her favorite dessert is tied between cupcakes and smoothies. She's ashamed for being one of the very rare people to not enjoy sushi, or any particular fish excluding salmon.

Bethany has a keen sense on fashion. She isn't obsessed with looking fashionable everyday, and enjoys lounging on the couch in her pajamas and or shorts with a worn-out shirt. Fashion has been a main point in her life, it's an alternative way of expressing herself without crafts and arts. Although, as a young child, she was known as an tomboy, telling her mother to just get her a t-shirt and an hoodie instead of making a huge deal out of shopping. But nowadays, her opinions have changed, she's been inspired by many young celebrities. Also, fashion, for her is mixed with her favorite season.

Basically, literature is Bethany's entire life because without it, she can't express her ideas and imagination. Being shy and unable to share her opinions has many disadvantages like being judged as stuck up, or mute or unfriendly when she's just afraid to speak her mind without feeling like a fool because she wants to be close to perfect. Due to this, Bethany has been pulled back from participating in group work and sports. Which makes her unable to improve in sports, stumble over her words and dress low-key.

The white man said, "Colored people are not allowed here." The black man turned around and stood up. He then said: "Listen sir...when I was born I was BLACK, When I grew up I was BLACK, When I'm sick I'm BLACK, When I go in the sun I'm BLACK, When I'm cold I'm BLACK, When I die I'll be BLACK. But you sir, When you're born you're PINK, When you grow up you're WHITE, When you're sick, you're GREEN, When you go in the sun you turn RED, When you're cold you turn BLUE, And when you die you turn PURPLE. And you have the nerve to call me colored?" The black man then sat back down and the white man walked away...
