The tale is told as if it's happening once upon a dream: the lovely maiden meets her handsome prince in the woods. The story has been told many times and in many ways. But always the maiden finds out that she is a princess-a princess who has been cursed by a dark fairy to prick her finger on a spindle and fall into an eternal sleep. Though her three good fairies try to protect her, the princess succumbs to the curse. But the power of good endures, as her true love defeats the fire-breathing dragon and awakens the princess with true love's first kiss. The two live happily ever after. And yet this is only half the story. So what of the dark fairy, Maleficent? Why does she curse the innocent princess? What led to her becoming so filled with malice, anger, and hatred? Many tales have tried to explain her motives. Here is one account, pulled down from the many passed down through the ages. It is a tale of love and betrayal, of magic and reveries. It is a tale of the Mistress of All Evil.

Can you love someone you can never touch?

Stella Grant likes to be in control - even though her totally out of control lungs have sent her in and out of the hospital most of her life. At this point, what Stella needs to control most is keeping herself away from anyone or anything that might pass along an infection and jeopardize the possibility of a lung transplant. Six feet apart. No exceptions.

The only thing Will Newman wants to be in control of is getting out of this hospital. He couldn’t care less about his treatments, or a fancy new clinical drug trial. Soon, he’ll turn eighteen and then he’ll be able to unplug all these machines and actually go see the world, not just its hospitals.

Will’s exactly what Stella needs to stay away from. If he so much as breathes on Stella she could lose her spot on the transplant list. Either one of them could die. The only way to stay alive is to stay apart. But suddenly six feet doesn’t feel like safety. It feels like punishment.

What if they could steal back just a little bit of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them? Would five feet apart really be so dangerous if it stops their hearts from breaking too?

عندما تقلب في أوراقك القديمة تجد الكثير من الهراء.. لكنك كذلك تجد بقايا أفكار ولمحات من خواطر فيها بعض اللحم.. عندما يخطر لك أن هذه القصاصات تصلح لشئ ما..
هل تصلح لقصة؟.. إنها أقصر من اللازم ولم تكتمل بعد.. يبدو الأمر كمن يجد مقبضاً صدناً فيبني قصراً كاملاً ليثبت هذا المقبض على أحد أبوابه..
هل تصلح لمقال؟.. ربما.. لكن عن أي شئ..
هل تصلح لقصيدة؟.. بالطبع لا.. نسيت أنك هجرت الشعر منذ عشرين عاماً، وصارت القوافي بين يديك كالصخر الأصم لا يلين، ولا تأمل في أن يلين..
هل تصلح لبعثرتها كحوار على شفاه أبطالك؟.. أسوأ القصص طرأ هي التي تكتبها كي تضع فيها شيئاً لم تجد له مكاناُ آخر.. إنها تكون الافتعال بعينه..
هل تصلح للحرق؟
بالتأكيد.. لهذا خلقت ولهذا وجدت..
