The year is 1792. The idea of the first presidential home and station, envisioned by architect James Hoban, is brought into creation. The home is built and families circulate in and out frequently, much to the dismay of the lonely building. Years roll by until fate brings James and Dolley Madison into its walls. However, a fire begun by British enemies destroy the White House's last chance at happiness. The burning building reflects upon its years from the moment of inception to its final hour in flames.
Author's Note: This story is a little different as the original White House is personified. Pay attention to foreshadowing and other elements-- you many find a lot! Please enjoy and leave comments :)

Marooned - Fred Weasley
"Whatever memories and moments define who you are or who you want to be, this one was among his." _ The second Sarah McCauley stepped over the threshold of the Burrow, bruised arm and heart, she knew it would become a special place to her. The second she met the Weasleys, she knew they will become the people she cares most for. It didn't take long to realize the twins had met their match. From that moment started a never-ending whirlwind of chases, play fights and bickering, building up to forming a formidable trio. All the while she and Fred, her best friend also Co-Trouble-Maker-in-Chief, slowly fall for each other. Falling for their best friend. What could be more idiotic? As if another complication was needed. Time goes by and the mystery surrounding her past and that dreadful Halloween night still fills her heart. What happened that led up to that night? That night that left her marooned on the wooden floor.
