Lonely Hearts Club: Chapter 0
Chapter 0
Lindsey feels, in these moments, a cruel winter wind blow over her for the first time since she can remember. A harshness, a gritty wind that one could only expect from a world that doesn't want them there.
Where that may be over-dramatic, one doesn't confuse the feelings of the heart often, and who was Lindsey Howell if not an unwanted child, the orphan of the world, a street urchin who never realized that the world wasn't her playground until now. He had on her mother's jacket, not letting her mind dwell on the sentiment and memories that this jacket carries for her. She stands on a barren sidewalk in front of a community center

Dear Diary,
Four days until Wednesday.
He’s more attractive than I remember… he’s mean now, he’s very edgy. He hasn’t necessarily gotten any more attractive… but the way he talks over all of those people. The way he talked over me… the way he silenced that entire room and then told me off… it was a turn on… I know that sounds weird. I’m just sick of weak guys getting me presents, I’m sick of feelings and I’m sick of responsibilities, I’m sick of the touchy-feely bullshit. Guys coming to me, calling me a tease, calling me all sorts o

The Lonely Hearts Club Intro
Prologue
On many occasions, the birth of a child is a happy occurrence. A painful and bloody occasion, but sacred…
Annie Malone hoped that after she was done, after the pain, after the blood, after the hours upon hours of torture, she would have nothing to be ashamed of. Steven was there to hold her hand though.

For the Dissent Dramatica
Oh God. Full moon.
Truth is, I wasn’t not looking forward to it. I was. But, no doubt, I’ll wake up with blood splotched on my face and my wife won’t even notice. I’ll have left a trail of muddy footprints that my wife cleans up as if the dog did it. We don’t have a dog.
