Drabble: Actions Speak Louder Than Words
Fandom: The OC
Pairing: Ryan/Taylor
Rating: R
A/N This was written at the request of 60schic. Smut isn't my strong point which will soon become evident. LOL I couldn't sleep and this served as the perfect distraction. Hopefully this will make up for the most recent cliffhanger of DOOM! Maybe?

FIC: A Willing Sacrifice
Author: Nightrider
Fandom: The OC
Disclaimer: I don’t own anything related to the OC. How sad for me!
Summary: Seth begins to doubt his friendship with Ryan.

A/N: This was written for Brandy’s 15 minute challenge. I was supposed to use a sentence prompt, but it didn’t fit with the story I wrote. It’s rather odd because the quote gave me the idea for the story, but later didn’t fit. Go figure…

This is not betaed. I make a ton of mistakes and they are all my own. Feel free to point them out, and I'll gladly fix them.

Beta: Nope! Feel free to point out any glaring errors and I'll gladly fix them.
Summary: Ryan needs some encouragement. Naturally Sandy is the best man for the job.
A/N: teachertam wanted someone to play with this idea so this story is dedicated to her. I hope you like it. I have a large, angst-fest story planned for this idea, but I needed something light hearted. Hopefully one day I'll get to it!

This is pretty short, but at least I've written something! That counts, right?

Summary: The first time Ryan gets grounded.

This takes place early Season 1.
