Title: Courage to Speak
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Drama, Romance
Summary: Shy girl. Love triangles. And a funeral to attend.
Beta: my Survey of Forms: Fiction class
Word count: 2,960
Author's notes: Here is the second story that I wrote for my Survey of Forms: Fiction class. This is actually the first draft. I'm not that happy with the second draft, but I really do want to refine this story and maybe even make it novel length because I really liked the characters. If I do get around to revising this, it'll be quite different (maybe a different ending since it was kind of rushed), which is why I'm posting this anyway. :]

Word count: 1,536
Author's notes: This is the first story that I wrote for my Survey of Forms: Fiction class. I want to give a HUGE thanks to msmoocow! ♥ This story may be as much hers as it is mine because my brain just wasn't functioning the night before it was due. It's gone through one revision, but I foresee at least one more.

Author's notes: This is actually the prologue, but I've decided to revise the story a bit and make this chapter 1 instead. I just finished this five minutes ago, so it's a bit rough since I need to rush off and start my homework. Enjoy!
