What Is A Legacy?
After Thomas' family died, before he left for France during the Revolutionary War, he never allowed himself to grow close with anyone. But living in Virginia led to the inevitable: crossing paths with his rival, Alexander, and meeting Eliza and Philip Hamilton. But when Alexander constantly works, and is away from his family, Philip ultimately turns to Thomas for advice, and the two of them soon become as thick as thieves. When France enters their own revolution, it lands Thomas in danger, and teaches him how to deal with his loss. I swear, the story is better than the summary. I do not own any of these characters, all song lines/references belong to Lin Manuel-Miranda. And I apologize for historical inaccuracies, this is just something me and my sister would be fun to write. I hope you enjoy! Please no hate :)Concluida

Just using them as inspiration for the story and how the characters look like. The collages are made by me. Created this story from pure imagination based on a part of a dream. (which the scene that was inspired by it will happen near the end depends how I feel about the story.) Names my sound similar to the actual people they are inspired by and some are just combinations of what I came up with. ~Warning~ I might change characters appearance to make them seem older as story may go along. (It will rarely happen maybe one or two characters will change who knows)Concluida
Mr Jefferson is Coming Home (Jamilton)
1789: Thomas Jefferson returns from France and meets Alexander Hamilton for the first time. It's hatred at first sight, but it will eventually change into something none of them would ever have imagined. Set in the 18th century, the two political enemies will have to overcome their own fears and to hide their love, while trying to build their new nation. (Jamilton / past Lams) ***And then it happened. Jefferson looked away from Burr for just a second and fixed his eyes on Alexander's. Alex's heart stopped and he felt his blood running cold into his veins - what should he do? Should he nonchalantly walk out of that damned alley, or run away, or what? He was trying to think fast, but in the end he just stayed there, frozen on his spot by Jefferson's smug stare. For what it seemed to be a lifetime, Thomas's brown eyes held his gaze, tying Alexander's blue, wide eyes to his, reading his very soul like an open book. Then, he winked and turned to Burr again, acting as if nothing had happened. Alex abruptly retreated into the deep shadows of the alley, breathing hard and sweating as if he'd just had an epiphany. Five seconds. Just five insignificant seconds and his world had been turned upside down.*** Cover picture credits to --> hello.im.jade on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hello.im.jade/Concluida

I'll Come Back for You
Book is completed! ✅ * January 2, 2020: placed third in romance category for the Duck Awards! The crash that broke through the last of her desperate hopelessness, was merciful, or so they said. Merciful, indeed. Merciful, for now she knew how cruel that promise had been. How had she managed to hold onto those words, as the world around her fell to ash? He hadn't remembered her at all, and she doubted he dwelled on the indefinite promise he'd made her. He hadn't remained the same, that she knew. He had risen to the top, left her to watch from far below as he became the star he had always dreamed of being. To believe he would return for her just because he had said so was ludicrous. Yet, if by some twist of fate, he did come back? "I'll come back for you," he'd said. Those vague words would be her undoing. **Inspired by Max Schneider's song "I'll Come Back for You" **Please do not steal my writing. This story took years to get down on paper and so much hard work!Concluida
