He would never forget her. Her beautiful blonde hair. Her friendly, sincere eyes. Her joyous laughter that could liven up a funeral home. He met her on his final day of vacation, dancing in the ocean under a star-light sky. They spoke, they laughed, they even cried and then they said goodbye. They were like ships in the night, passing by. They just didn't get the timing right...
But that doesn't mean they won't be granted another chance.
He never thought he would find her in the most unlikely of places... Singing on the stage of his church. She has been within reach all this time, yet he never knew. He had sworn off his church for the rest of his life, for he feels as if they had wronged him in the worst way possible. However, repaying a favor to a friend might have been the best decision he ever made.
Will Kol and Kinsey get the chance for their happily ever after? Or are they only ever meant to be ships passing in the night?

I can feel my heart hammering so loudly in my chest. I bite my bottom lip while gently tracing my fingers in circles over his hand. He grips my hand a little tighter which pulls my eyes to his. "What's going on in that pretty little head of yours?" His voice deep while his fingers move from my hand to push some loose hair behind my ear. My breath hitches in my throat at his touch. His thumb traces my bottom lip, his eyes darken with hunger and need. Clearing my throat, I wriggle out of his hold and divert my eyes down to my lap. *** Dual POV 18+ Mature scenes Strong languageComplete

A Few Small Repairs --- VegasPete OceanPete
Pete was a complicated man who loved an equally complicated man. They were meant to have forever. If only the man he thought was the love of his life had not betrayed him. Will he move on and accept love again when it is offered by someone new, someone outside the dark world of his past? Someone who has seen what betrayl can do to a person's heart and vowed never to hurt the one they love once they find them. Vegas loved Pete. He knew it in his bones Pete would be the only man he would ever love. Too bad his pride got in the way. After cheating on the love of his life how will he ever win Pete back especially when he knows in his heart his perfect Pete will never forgive him. Please note this is a fanfic based on the characters of Vegas and Pete from Kinnporche. It is just a little idea I had for what would happen if Pete couldn't forgive Vegas betraying him and went on his own journey to find a life away from his past. I wanted to see Pete with someone who would never betray him and would treat him with respect. I also want to see Vegas grow and realize his mistake and come to understand that because of his own selfish pride he will have to either move on from the only person he ever truly loved and trusted or love him from a distance forever. This is a ghostship for Pete an a new OG character if you don't like ghostships please don't read this. This will be very slowly updated I also have a KinnPete ghostship and my own original work so maybe once a month on updates for the time being.
