hero.

I'm in a crying jag right now, and I want to cry even more.

Prompts:

1.) Give me a story based off of the song "Hero" by Enrique Iglesias.

2.) A romance, gone sad.

3.) Or a story, that you think can make me cry.



RuLeS:

Well...you should know them all by now. If not, pity. Ask. Or look around at the other contests.

Regardless, credit the song title and singer in your Author Notes.


Word limit: above 150, below 7000.
