What to do
As Diana’s eyes fluttered open, she immediately realised that she was in a hospital ward. She had been here before, when she was 7. In fact, she was surprised she could even remember. Her vision was blur, but she could see that around her bed, Artemis and his entire family were there. And across the bed, she could see David, but she couldn’t understand why his arm appeared white.
She sat up, without any difficulty and looked around, embarrassed at the crowd. Then she decided to speak. Everyone was looking at her intently.
“What? Am I going to die or something? ”
Angeline sighed, and patted her hair. “No dear, I’m afraid that you won’t be seeing home for a few weeks. ”
Diana’s eyes widened. “I’m that serious? ”
Angeline nodded. She looked pretty solemn. “Artemis found you and him lying on the garden. ” As she was saying about David,she nodded towards him. David narrowed his eyes at Angeline. Diana knew he did not like being called ‘him’.
“After you recover, you have some explaining to do! ” Angeline continued. Diana, without saying a word, darted her eyes towards David, who just shrugged. It was then she realised that he was wearing a cast on his arm, where she thought it had appeared white.
She sighed. And put her best apologetic face. Then Angeline smiled slightly. “Don’t worry, dear. ” After a pause, she said, “Myles and Artemis are hungry. Do you want anything from the cafe? ”
Diana shook her head no. She wasn’t hungry. In fact, she wanted the Fowls out of the way, and fast. As the family made their way down, David didn’t follow them. He stood there, motionless.
“Did you see who did it? The ice thing? ”
Diana nodded. She even knew her name. “Yeah, she- ”
But David cut her off. “Yeah, she talked to me too. And she told me something. Something I think you will find ridiculous. ”
Diana raised her eyebrows, and David continued.
“She told me your father is still alive.”

Hey guys! Some of you may find this story familiar. Just a news flash: I had to re-publish this because, well, I couldn’t update at all the last time. I’m technologically cursed, like Lydia Tall.
Anyways, enjoy the story!

The sentences are somewhat choppy, but otherwise okay. It wasn’t bad, though…who’s the jerk who rated it a one?

Ahh, choppy? Hmm, I’ll amend it accordingly. Lol, I think the ratings have been cleared again.

These sentences were either choppy, or incomplete sentences.
Diana had a crisis. David just shouted at her. Because Artemis’s mother had adopted her. Why was he acting like that? He never even scolded her before. And this time, Diana let her tears flow. They were overpowering her eyes. Was he overprotective? Or did he just want Diana to stay in his house? Was he lonely without her?
Sorry, I’m just picky like that and it really bothered me.

Oh, I get what you mean. OK, maybe I’ll join some up together and make the sentences longer.

I don’t really like my introduction myself… just a few ammendments… Ahh. There we go.

I admit it. Romance is definitely NOT my type. But when you look at every guide to writing they have here, they just say you have to have a little. And that just makes me uncomfortable.

LOL well I loved the first one, and the second is awesome too. The story’s great. I can see that the sentences are a bit choppy as well, though I didn’t know how to put it into words. Choppy fits though. Overall, it isn’t bad in the slightest.
