"What if, we meant more to them?" A question that has never been answered, for Francesca. A question that has lingered for the last 6 years, hoping, and waiting for something to change. Wondering why, on one random day, Francesca and Alessandro were left behind in Sicily, Italy, with their Aunt, instead of travelling with their eldest brothers to wherever it may be they decided. 6 years of questions that even their Aunt could not answer, or whether she chose to ignore, neither one of them got anything of substance. What they did get, was free will to do as they pleased, which was never given when they were younger, from their brothers that constantly used the fact that they were in their care, and without parents, to their advantage. With this new freewill, they were rebellious, and did what every parent's worst nightmare was. They became the kids that were so unrecognizable by anyone, even to their own family. Only, how far did they go, and will they ever come back? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Started: 16.11.25 Finished:

"Nowhere is safe, you know?" Foster homes, orphanages, replacement homes, you name it, Georgia Monroe has never fit in anywhere. From a young age, she has only known that running away and constantly losing track of those that are supposed to care for her, is a way of survival. A way to escape. She hardly knows her real name, as people are constantly trying to change it, whilst all she wants to do is fit in. It's like she knows that she has a real family out there, no matter how many times people try to tell her that they either didn't want her, before explaining all the reasons why no one would want her, or that they all died, and she will never know them. For years, Georgia has tried to decipher the difference between words thrown at her in rage and due to alcohol, but as the years go by, it is harder to see the difference. It's harder not to believe the words. The words of her family not wanting her and that they may be dead, probably as a result of her sake. All she wants, is a pair of safe arms that will take the stress of her shoulders, for a little while. Only, she doesn't know how great of a deal she is asking of those that are her family. She will never understand the depth of the work that her real family has been intertwined, and maybe not living with them, has kept her alive. Has made her a stronger person than she would have been if she had grown up with them from the beginning. Georgia, though it may feel like to her, isn't the only one that has suffered. Though her brothers home may be idealistic and fit for a king and queen in her eyes, it is far from it. Behind all the luxury and money spilling from the walls, it hadn't been like that their entire lives. It wasn't easy to attain such wealth without risking a few lives here and there, including Georgia's, their sister. __________________________________________________________________ Started: 11.10.21 Finished: 21.08.22 Rewritten: 17.08.25 -

Clover Marianne Emerson has always been a quiet storm, hiding her fears behind soft smiles and her scars beneath impossible expectations. When tragedy uproots her life, she is thrust into the chaos of her brothers' world-a place of loud voices, sharp edges, and a love she doesn't know how to accept. They are strangers bound by blood, each with their own cracks and shadows. Clover tries to fit herself into their lives, perfect and invisible, but perfection is a fragile thing. As the walls between them start to crumble, so does the mask she's always worn. Follow Clove as she learns to navigate teenage life, sibling rivalry, and her own dreams and as she begins to discover that perfection isn't what binds a family together-it's love, chaos, and everything in between.

The Valentinos have always been a family full of energy and passion, but more often than not, these emotions get twisted into the wrong circumstances. What happens when a new face worms it's way inside the household, disturbing the familial foundation and most importantly, attempting to replace what, or who, was lost?

"You disappeared. You chose another life, one where you abdicated from the role of being a big brother; the same big brother that was the only father figure I had in my life" Life has never been easy in the Antonelli household. Constantly on the move due to uprising family issues, people get lost. In large families, people get lost. Loud crowds, barely any food, and sharing clothes, is just the bare minimum. Growing up in Russia, was a completely different story. The second the Antonelli's stepped in to the states, it was a whole other world. Going from poor, absent parents, to the rich lifestyle with only her brothers to show some form of guidance, is not what is expected. Least of all, is boarding school. Only a few years after being accustomed to the states, her eldest brothers are gone. No trace, no note, nothing. Only a message in the form of her fourth eldest brother, whom has now become her guardian, that she is to go to an elite boarding school. Only now, the trio of big brothers are back in town, and demanding that she comes home. Demanding her, Harlow, to return to the little girl they left, 8 years ago. It isn't that easy though, adjusting to living under the roof of a brother that chose to leave the second he could. But, who can blame them, when the lifestyle they came from, was not flush with money. Only, you can blame them. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Formally known as Athlete B Started: 23.10.25 Finished: -
