𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 | ❝YOU JUST DON'T KNOW HOW IT FEELS, TO LOSE SOMETHING YOU NEVER HAD, AND NEVER WILL. ❞ ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ Carmen Ripley is known for making people fall in love with her. She's incredibly easy to love, all the way from how she looks to her personality. She smiles, and everyone falls in love. She speaks, and her soft voice just warms everyone's heart. You see her down the street but never speak, but somehow you think of her a week later. Her aura brings just about anyone joy. The only thing is Carmen rarely gives her heart out, because Carmen's very independent with love and making sure everyone around her knows she doesn't need a man. Which makes it hard for Bucky Barnes because though the girl is his best friend, he's utterly in love with Carmen. The boy just convinces himself that Carmen's out of his league. But his struggles only growing seeing as Bucky becomes a sergeant for the one-o-seventh, while Carmen becomes a nurse for the one-o-seventh. The two rarely see each other but when they do it's filled with soft singing and dancing, broken hearts, and a jealous filled Bucky. But at the end of the day they find hope, in a train, as 'death' awaits one of them. But prior to all that, prior to when the problems truly begin, it starts with three teen best friends, Steven 'Steve' Rogers, James 'Bucky' Barnes, and Carmen Ripley, all living Brooklyn. Their friendship began with a football landing in swim loving teen, Carmen. And slowly their story moves to three adult best friends facing the problems of Earth. Problems none of them truly were expecting. Three separate problems, for three separate people, that may just come back to haunt them later. ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ ( captain america: the first avenger) (extended summary inside) (started 5/19/18) (ended 8/3/18)

𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐞 | ❝WHEN HAVE I EVER, BROKEN A PROMISE?❞ ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ Someone once told Carmen a promise. A promise that her younger brother would be safe if she left. A promise that her brother would no longer be a missing child who kidnapped. A promise that he wouldn't be murdered right in front of her like their mother was in front of him. Just for that promise to be broken, by the man who broke her. It wasn't until that moment that Carmen knew how much a broken promise could really hurt someone. So though Carmen forgot her whole self for thirty-five years. She forgot about 'her boys,' she forgot about her brother, she forget about her father, she forgot about her mother, but there's only one thing Carmen never forgot. The day a promise was broken, Carmen vowed to herself that she would keep her streak of never breaking a promise. And with that she promised herself, for her own sanity, to never keep her feelings bottled up. Because someone once told Carmen that it's not okay to bottle up your emotions. And she never did bottle her emotions up. She only had Theo to talk to, especially when being on the run from Hydra you couldn't exactly make other friends. But it's when Carmen and Theo see the news that a man Carmen once knew very well came back from being frozen and to fight someone named 'Loki from Asgard' did her interest peak. But in the end they never went back to see him, at the time it was too dangerous. And even now it still is, but they know they have to go back to Steve once finding out someone from Hydra is back; the winter soldier. Meaning for the second time, Carmen's life is about to change. ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ (sequel to 'lose something') (extended summary inside) (ca:tws - ca:cw) (started 8/3/18) (ended 5/30/20)
