Courting Stories

Noah always thought he understood love - until he met Mara Leigh. She's calm where he's restless, luminous where he's shadowed, and the first person who truly makes him feel whole. For a time, their world is perfect in its simplicity. Late-night talks, shared notebooks, laughter that softens his edges. But when Mara is diagnosed with cancer, Noah's world shatters in slow motion. Every day becomes a battle - to keep her spirits up, to survive himself, to hold onto a love that's slipping like sand through his fingers. As he navigates grief, guilt, and helplessness, Noah realizes that loving someone fully means standing through the pain, even when it leaves you broken. While You Fade is a story about love that lingers long after the last word, the courage to face loss, and the hope that even in heartbreak, the heart can learn to beat again.

The Black Family Tragedy was a well known story in the Wizarding World. The simultaneous kidnapping of eleven children is obviously an event that's hard to keep a secret. The fact that the abduction case is so famous is most likely why Hermione came across the article almost immediately when she started her roam through the library. - In the dead of night, a stranger penetrated the wards around Malfoy Manor. Eleven of the thirteen children in the house were taken. Nine year old Nymphadora Black and one year old Draco Malfoy-Black were the only children to escape abduction, being saved by a house elf who caught the intruder in the act. By the time the elf was able to wake the adult occupants of the manor, the children and mystery wizard were gone.

My dear Miss Featherington, I hope you will forgive the liberty of this letter, but I have discovered that certain gratitudes grow restless if left unspoken, and I find mine has been pacing the length of my mind for some time now. I wished to tell you-properly, and without interruption-how much I owe you. Do you recall that afternoon in the gardens, some months ago now? You were waiting for my sister, half-hidden by the hedges, the late sun catching in your hair as though it had conspired to set you alight. I remember thinking you looked otherworldly-like some fiery fairy who had lost her way and settled, briefly, among mortals. I sketched you then. I did not intend to at first; my hand simply moved before I had thought better of it. And I continued to do so, on other days, from other angles, always when you did not see me. Until, of course, you did. I confess I expected embarrassment-perhaps even reproach. Instead, you looked upon the sketch as though it were something precious. You said it was beautiful. More than that, you told me I should pursue such work if it stirred me so deeply. No one had ever spoken to me thus before. My family indulges my drawing as one might indulge a child's fondness for toy soldiers-amiable, harmless, and entirely temporary. You were the first to suggest it might be more. That it might be mine. It was shortly after that I resolved to apply to the Royal Academy of Arts, having at last concluded my studies at Eton. I do not flatter myself into believing I shall set the world alight-but I am going, Miss Featherington. I am choosing something for myself. And for that courage, such as it is, I have you to thank. Yours most sincerely, Benedict Bridgerton.

[LEGO NINJAGO FAE & FAERIES!AU] At first it doesn't seem like much of a good thing.
