1. Heartbreak Girl
Genre: Family/Angst
Characters: Charlie/Sue, Bella/Sam
Word Count: 101
Prompt: "So much for date night."
Charlie and Sue jumped apart at the sound of the front door slamming. Bella raced past on the way to the stairs.
Sue placed a kiss on his cheek then stood up. "I'll go check on her."
He let out a sigh, his head falling back on the couch. "So much for date night," he muttered. A knock at the door dislodged him from his inner bitching.
Opening the door, he found Sam on the other side, looking desolate. He crossed his arms over his chest. "Can you explain to me why my daughter ran through here, crying her eyes out?"
2. Family Portrait
Genre: Family
Characters: Wolf Pack
Word Count: 100
Prompt: picture of girl taking a picture in the mirror
Mating Season universe
The photographer looked over at his assistant. "From now on, we're charging for location and head count."
He turned his attention back to the group. Kids were running around with harried mothers after them. Some of the guys were playing around as much as the kids. Several women, who were pregnant, yelled and/or laughed at the antics. An old man looked pleased at the commotion around him.
"Can we have just the family members please?" he called out. It quieted down and people got into position.
"Son," the old man answered from the middle of the group. "We're all family."
3. Wicked Children

Prompt: picture of a girl taking a picture in the mirror
The Pack's Imprint universe
Two arms snaked around Bella's midsection as she cooked dinner.
"Hello, Ms. Swan."
She turned and grinned. "Well, hello, Mr. Clearwater." She wrapped her arms around his neck as he dipped in for a kiss. A click separated them.
"Eww, gross," Gannon said. Cameron nodded.
"I think it's awesome for people Mom and Dad's age to show affection," Lucy commented.
"As long as it's just that," Charlie said with a shudder. "Can you imagine Mom and Dad bumping uglies? That's just gross."
Bella gasped and threw a roll at her oldest. "Just for that, you set the table."
4. Welcome Home
Genre:
Characters: Unknown Wolf
Word Count: 106 (got close)
Prompt: It was his best idea yet.
He stepped back from the canvas. He wiped at the sweat on his chest, unknowingly smearing paint. His head cocked one way then the other. A smile began to form on his face. This had to have been his best idea yet.
The painting was of Akalat, James Island. Figures wove between the trees, spilling onto the beach. The individual in front held his arms out in a welcoming gesture. Behind him, a wolf towered over him. On either side of him, men and wolves seemed to fade into the distance.
"Oh, babe," she whispered in amazement. "What are you going to call it?"
"Welcome Home."
5. Different Languages
Genre: Friendship
Characters: Bella/Jared
Word Count: 98
Prompt: I love you.
Skinny Dippin' universe
Jared wrapped his arms around Bella and pulled her closer. They watched as the sun rose over the horizon.
"Which way is La Push?" she whispered.
"That way." He pointed towards the northeast. "What's going through that over-active mind of yours?"
"I think we just screwed up. We were having a hard time before, but now?"
"Bella." He tilted her head back. "Just remember nayeli."
6. Drunken Confession
Genre: Friendship
Characters: Bella/Leah – non slash
Word Count: 105
Prompt: I love you.
"I love you," Bella slurred, leaning on Leah.
"Yeah. Okay, Swan." She pushed the drunken girl gently away.
"No. I mean it. I love you." She was right back on the she-wolf. "You're snarky, sarcastic, a down-right bitch. You don't take shit from anyone." She sighed. "I wanna be like you when I grow up."
Leah snorted. "You wanna be a bitter harpy who won't let go of a past relationship that everyone says was obviously doomed from the start since he didn't imprint on me."
Bella pfffted. "It's better than being outta your head crazy, doing stupid stunts to hear an undead sparkly's voice."
