You guys, don't freak out or anything...

But we hit 1k likes!!!

There are genuinely no words to describe how much this milestone means to me. You all truly mean the world to me and I wouldn't be able to keep producing content like this if it were not for your love and support. This is more of an accomplishment on your behalf than mine, so I thought I'd drop a little gift that quite a few of you have been asking me for.

So, without further ado, here is the prologue and description to Always Fight, the sequel to Don't Hide.

"Let him go, Dawn. He's gone! They're all gone!"

I suck in a sharp breath, tears blurring my vision. The wind gently tugs my hair as I keep my chin up.

"I can't let him go Tony, how could any of us let them go?"

Tony Stark goes silent before me, his eyes softening. From behind his legs, his little girl steps out.

"Did you lose someone?"

I offer the girl a sad, broken smile and stoop down to her.

"I lost the most important person in the world to me," I respond, a single tear streaking down my cheek. I reach forward and brush back a lock of her hair.

"But when it comes to losing the people we love, we never give up on them,"

I pause, looking up to connect my charged glance to Tony.

"We always fight"

Sequel to Don't Hide [Infinity War - Endgame]

Prologue

The perfect moment is often hard to find.

Most people spend their lives searching for their one perfect moment, the exact moment when they realize that everything is perfectly as it should be. It's not like the grueling times are forgotten, but it's in that one perfect moment that we learn to look at life not through the lens of the bad, but the good. Like I said, most people spend their entire lives pursuing this one moment.

I'm luckier than most people. I'm living it.

My perfect moment is being painted by the glorious combination of my niece, my job with Tony and the Avengers, my work with Steve and his crew, and my relationship with Bucky. The past year and a half have been pure bliss, a beautiful contrast from my previous hardships.

But that's the thing about the one perfect moment, it has to come to an end.

And the end of mine would be the harshest, most gut-wrenching end there could have ever been. The most heart-breaking part is that I didn't see it coming, none of us did. I didn't know I'd walk away from the people I love and not see them again.

What I do know, though, is that I won't let this be forever. I can't bear to lose them forever, to lose him forever.

For him, I will always fight.

There's your little sneak peak!! The book probably won't be out for a while because, well, school is HARD. I will be constantly working on it, though.

Oh and p.s., I'm completely open to cover designs for the book. I am not artistic and when I put the current one up, I did not expect the book to blow up as much as it has. So, if you have any ideas, please feel free to let me know! I love you guys 3000,

Peace out for now!
