"I lost him, he's gone. If I'm not careful I will be too" -------------------------- He looks healthy now. His cheeks are rosy red, his lips aren't cracked. He looks good, he looks his age. But I still don't know why we're in the hospital. Alone, no, We're stuck in the room, his face pales. Like the day we got the news. No, wait what's happeing, His eyes, his body, his smile it all fades. I'm not ready, not yet. I just want to hold him one last time, give me one last chance to say goodbye. Just one more. "Sophia" Not now. I just need to say goodbye, let me say goodbye. "Sophia" I turn around, my hair is in my face, he's dissapeared, where is he. I frantically look around me. I'm in darkness. Empty, darkness. "Sophia" No, I had him. -------------------------- Killian Miller died four years ago. Leaving his sister Sophia Miller to grieve. What he hoped didn't happen, happened and now she has completely lost it. She isn't living anymore, but she's surviving. Each day harder then the other. August Stead comes into her life. Will he be able to help, will he be able to love again? -------------------------- Started: 27th July 2020 Completed: 12th October 2020 Editing completed: 27th December 2021Complete

Personified US States and Federal District
So this was an idea I've had for a while now concerning the capital and states. I started out with Alaska, then moved to New York and it just snow balled from there. This book will start with Delaware, end with Hawaii and will put D.C. in middle with the rest of states from the 1700s. And if anybody wants to create fan art for them feel free to do it and if you want your art displayed here, I'll make a separate book just for the art. Please be mindful of the fact that these are my ideas on how they all look and act. Before anybody gets on me about Pennsylvania, I've read other stories where Penn is albino and can switch from acting like Prussia to Austria and back again with either a trigger word or song. I've done it so that even though Penn mainly acts like Austria, he will switch to Prussia if AND only when the family is being seriously threatened. The only countries who know about the capital and the states are as follows: 1. Russia, Ukraine, Belarus- reason is because of the purchase of Alaska back in 1867 and that New York decided to follow his grandma to meet this new potential sibling 2. Lithuania- we all know that he lived with Alfred for a time, so he one day literally ran into Alaska and from there meet the 50 of Alfred's children 3. Prussia- two words people VALLEY FORGE, it was not a good winter that year at all 4. Canada and Mexico- Mexico knew already because the states along the southern border are hers (yes, here Mexico is a girl named Esperanza) and Canada found out shortly after the war of 1812 Hope you all enjoy reading the book and as a pre warning, all and any flames will be used to roast marshmallows on bayonets (don't tell Gilbert about that last part) over backyard fire pits.Complete![Ma Belle Rose :|{2.0}|: Lafayette X Reader [Discontinued]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/145784011-256-k367916.jpg)
Ma Belle Rose :|{2.0}|: Lafayette X Reader [Discontinued]
{WARNING: THIS STORY ISN'T TECHNICALLY "COMPLETED" AND HAS BEEN LEFT ON A HUGE CLIFF HANGER! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!} Authors note: Hello! I wrote "Ma Belle Rose" over the course of a year and a half, and I've worked very hard on it. I would like to note that this book is a reboot of the original, and I only re-edited some of the first few chapters. So like half of the story is kinda shitty grammar-wise lol. I will not be updating or finishing the story because I stopped writing this a few years ago, so my interest in it has faded away. My sincerest apologies to you hardcore Hamilton fans out there. :,( Anyway it's still pretty good, and there's a lot of chapters, so I encourage you to read anyway and please enjoy!!! (Hi, its currently being edited by yours truly, @On_cloudneuf . maybe I'll make it out alive to write an ending! - Nov 16th, 2020) ------©©©©=====××× You crumbled the night you lost your mother to pneumonia. She loved you and your half brother B/n more than anything in the world. She'd always been kind, supportive, and very loving towards you both, and the strongest woman you've ever known. As you held her hand on the side of that dirty bed frame, she touched your tear stained face, and whispered to you loving words, before she passed away. Each night you missed her more than the last, but that wasn't the only reason you cradled yourself to sleep every night. The days got tormenting in the worst ways possible. Your maniac step father never liked you, and the only reason he tolerated your being was because he loved your mom. You were in the way of keeping her to himself. Now that she was gone, he put the weight on your shoulders, punishing you in horrid ways. But it wasn't long before you heard about the revolution. It was the only way to escape the mess that you considered your own life. And with the support of your brother, you were off.Complete

Ink & Steel
When I was 14, my best friend, Declan, rushed into my life like a storm. He climbed through my window one night, carrying a duffel bag full of baseball equipment, but it wasn't for a game. It was for me. He'd seen the bruises, heard the shouting, and knew what my dad had been doing. Declan, smaller than me even at that age, fought my father to protect me, taking the blows that I couldn't fight off. That night, my dad moved us away, and I never saw Declan again. Now, 13 years later, I'm back in town-older, tougher, and a lot more guarded-but I have no idea where Declan ended up. Life pulled us in different directions, and mine was full of scars, seen and unseen. Then, one night at a red light, a guy starts harassing me through my open window. Before I can react, a motorcycle screeches to a stop beside me. The rider-tattooed, broad-shouldered, and completely lethal-reaches through the guy's window, slams his head into the steering wheel, and rides off like it was just another Thursday. I follow him. He ends up at a place called The Rusted Anchor, a rough bar on the edge of town, hidden behind rusted fences and rows of bikes. The crowd is loud and rough, but I've seen worse. Inside, it smells like whiskey, smoke, and danger. And behind the bar, pouring drinks with practiced ease, is the man I thought I lost all those years ago-Declan. He's no longer the quiet, skinny kid who risked everything to protect me. He's a man now-hardened, scarred, with eyes like storm clouds and a presence that silences a room. He doesn't recognize me at first. But when he does, I see it-that same fire, that same instinct to protect. Only now, it burns even hotter. Declan isn't just back in my life. He's ready to do whatever it takes to keep me safe. And this time, no one is going to take me away from him.Complete
