Since we all love to read one-shots, I'm making a new one that I'm pretty sure hasn't been done yet. Every chapter will be filled with a random character one-shot based off of a song's title and lyrics. I will have the name of the song title and who it's by at the end of each song. I will try to range from a variety of music's, from rock to country. Please review at the end of the chapter telling me if you like either this idea or this chapter please! It will give me SO much input on if I should continue this or not.

The sizes will also vary. I will have some longer ones, and I will also have some shorter ones :D


"Who's that pretty wady?" a four year old girl sat on the lap of her father, looking through some old scrapbooks.

"Her name's Gwen, angel," the man kissed the top of his daughters head while she continued to flip through the pages and stare in awe at each one.

"Did you know her?" the girl continued to ask with large, green, adoring sparking eyes. Her long black hair was all messed up, but it looked rather cute for her.

"I knew her very well, Tammy," the man told his daughter. Very well…

"Oh. When's this picture taken? She's in dat picture, too!" Tammy noticed.

"That was very early in the game. One of the first weeks, actually," the man noticed. It was a picture of Gwen and the man in his teenage years, staring at the stars with her. They had to stay up all night; it was a good way to loose track of the time.

"Gwen in a lot of these pictures!" Tammy squealed as she pasted through each page. "Like in dis one!"

The picture was of Gwen and Trent at the mess hall. They seated at the back, almost as if they were trying to hide of not only camera, but video camera, also. But somehow, the camera man managed to get both of them.

"Well, we were really good friends, sweetie," he reassured her.

"Eew! Cooties! You guys are about to kiss!" Tammy acted disgusted as a later picture showed the two about to kiss. Their lips were inches away from each other.

"We were saying good-bye. It was a good-bye kiss!" he tried to chuckle. But it was supposed to be a real kiss. A kiss of love and passion instead of just a farewell.

"Okay Daddy," the girl laughed.

"Can we put the book up yet?"

"Daddy! I'm just getting too the good part!" the girl whined.

"Alright. Let's just finish this season," the man was wanting to close the book that reminded him of his past.

"How come you look sad in this one?" she pointed to a picture that showed him with a small tear in his eye playing his guitar at the Aftermath section for the first time.

"Oh, that was so long ago. I don't remember," he lied. He remembered. Gwen had broken up with him not too long ago.

"But you look happy in this one!" she smiled, showing her missing tooth.

The picture was at the end of the season. Everyone had stood in a some-what organized pose, smiling at the camera. They had all planned to go home the next day, but of course, Chris's evil plans would have later informed them of yet another season.

"Everyone looked happy in that picture," he informed his daughter.

"Gwen doesn't. And you look happy-happy. Not like your faking it for the camera," she pointed to Gwen, who wore a smile, but her eyes looked like she might have cried not too long ago.

"Let me think…"

"Come on Gwen, Trent, you guys need to hurry for one last summer picture of us all!" Geoff called out, holding the camera.

"Fine," Trent sighed, and Gwen mumbled something under her breathe. The two had just finished talking about the possible future they had together. But she decided against it.

"You have to change your ways," she had said and glared her onyx eyes into his emerald ones.

"I don't know what your talking ab---" Trent was going to say something else, but that's when Geoff called. They never finished the conversation.

"Now smile, dudes!" Geoff put the camera on a stand, set the time, then quickly ran over to everyone else.

The crowd stood still, waiting for the camera to flash. Once it did, Geoff ran eagerly to it, to see how the picture turned out.

"Aww, Trent! You didn't smile!" Geoff moaned.

"Yeah I did! It's right there!" Trent showed Geoff the picture.

"That's not a real smile! That's a fake one. Redo," Geoff placed the camera back on the stand.

"Now smile, dude," Geoff managed to say before the camera flashed as he stood in the crowd next to him.

"Like how?" he was getting frustrated.

"Smile like you mean it!" Geoff blurted out before the camera flashed again. This time, Trent did wear a smile. A real one.

"I don't remember," he lied yet again.

"Oh," the girl looked disappointed. "Do you ever see Gwen?"

"No, sweetie. After I met Mommy, we lost touch," he informed the girl.

"Now that Mommy's gone, maybe you should try and find Gwen," the girl spoke with a tear at the mention of her mother.

"We'll see," he chuckled at the thought of him and Gwen together again. "Now time for bed."

"Okay Daddy, the innocent girl sighed and slowly walked into her room. Trent formed a small smile as he opened the book again to the page with the last picture they looked at.

"Yeah, Gwen. Smile like you mean it," he mumbled as he lightly touched his fingers to the picture.


I'm just going to go ahead and infer that you are going to be nice people that I know you all are and review like I asked!
