"We were young and naïve back then. We didn’t care for what the future held, nor were we prepared for it. Living for the moment was our notion. Day by day, we’d progress by each other’s side; it was just him and I.
It had always been Alfie and I, that’s just the way it was. We were inseparable, connected at the hip by a metaphorical joint. He was the centre of my very existence and I was his. Best friends for life."
It's 1939. In the small, sleepy English village of Hollybrooke, fifteen year old Harper has been best friends with Alfie for as long as she can remember. But when war breaks out and disaster strikes for the pair, will Harper fight through her worst fears, or find herself pushed to limits she cannot control?

Can I Take You Out For Dinner?
I was back at home after a long day of schedules. I could feel fatigue creeping in. I took a cold shower and got ready for bed when my phone pinged. Out of habit, I instantly picked up my phone from the nightstand. It was an Instagram notification, a message alert from @zeepruk. "Hi NuNew. I hope you didn't forget me too soon. It's me, Zee. James and a couple of common friends have mentioned that we should meet. I know you're busy but if you ever have a free queue, can I take you out for dinner?" I was trying to stay sane as I read his words out loud. I rubbed my eyes and pinched my cheek for good measure. Nope, I wasn't dreaming and the blue check mark right next to his username was also real. Oh my. THE Zee Pruk just DMed me, asking if he can take me to dinner! What in the name of macaroons is going on? What am I supposed to reply? * * * NuNew's a rookie singer and Zee's a veteran actor. They met and instantly felt a connection. Let's see how they navigate celebrity life as they further their feelings, deal with their traumas, and above all, dare to love again. [First published in AO3 in 2023, to be continued this 2025]

Yours Truly
[Copyright © 2014] In 1943, Charlotte Truly is a nineteen-year-old American nurse serving in World War II. The oldest of four daughters, Charlotte is mostly a shy and reserved girl who keeps to herself. But when Charlotte meets William McCaden, an injured soldier on leave whom she'd briefly met when she was seventeen, she finds herself falling inexplicably in love. When Will is shipped overseas to Nazi-occupied France to fight in a deadly combat mission, Charlotte and Will have only their letters to keep each other close... but in the midst of war, how can love possibly survive? ----- DISCLAIMER: This work was written when I, Raine the author, was 14 years old (circa 2014) and is a FIRST DRAFT. Certain aspects of this story are highly problematic and should rightfully be called out. Please do bear in mind, however, that the entirety of what you see here was written (unedited) by a 14-year-old girl. Now, I as a 20-year-old writing student am fully aware of my mistakes and would like to apologize profusely for them. They are not reflective of my present character by any means and I can assure you that I FULLY condemn the slut-shaming, misogyny, white saviorism, racism, and the general oversimplification of vastly complex themes and historical contexts you might see in Yours Truly (2014). As much as I would like to chalk it all up to being a sign of the times (the very backwards 1940s), I understand now how I should have handled this particular time period with more tact and discretion. Especially with how I recklessly portrayed the horrific racial climate of the 1940s American South. Again, I am very sorry and can wholeheartedly promise you that any later drafts of Yours Truly would 100% rework all of these themes and contexts with the utmost of consideration towards the communities they affect directly. Thank you. -Raine, Feb. 11/2021Complete
