(UNDER HEAVY EDITING) Elizabeth Pollard, daughter of Captain George Pollard, is an unusually talented girl who lives for adventure and excitement. After being asked to join the Whaleship Essex, her life as she knew it would change forever after being assaulted by something no one could believe: a whale of mammoth size and will, and an almost human sense of vengeance. Through thick and thin, panic and despair, starvation and thirst, love and lust, what will happen as the story of Moby Dick unfolds and what will happen to the once innocent girl of New England as she does the unthinkable to stay alive.

4 years have gone by since those magical nights with my love, Dan Howell. The group still remains together, Dan, Phil, Kian, Jeremy, Jordan, Eden, Julia and I are all still as close as we were when we were 18. Not all of us went to college after graduation. Dan moved in with Phil so he could focus more on his You Tube. He had so many subscribers! I was proud of him, but we were separated most of the time when I went off to film school with Eden, Kian, and Julia. However, this was my last year and I promised that I would move in with Dan as soon as I graduated. But as my birthday comes, Dan purposes to me, but just as I think everything is going to be all right... it turns, terribly wrong.

High school was miserable. If I thought getting picked on was bad... I should have seen my future. My fathers company was moved so we went all the way from America to the UK. I met friends. Espiacally Dan Howell. I thought my life was getting better until my dad killed himself and my mother became abusive. I needed a hero to save me. And that was Dan Howell... who I fell in love with.

"It's really nothing" "If it's nothing Dan, why are you trying to hide it from me?" When a major event happens, turning Dan's life upside down, he must accept the help of Phil and yourself despite having his defenses up in order to protect your potential relationship. What problems will you face? Will Dan's health affect you as well as himself? Will you put on a smile for him, even when you know of the negative outcome? Find out and enjoy :)

Find out and enjoy ;)

My writing has since improved, but I'd rather not edit and correct all these things for the sake of looking back on how much I've grown and changed, writing-wise. Thanks for your understanding!
