In which Jungkook realises that he's hopelessly and ridiculously in love with his best friend, Park Jimin. ~ Guys, this is just a sweet one shot fic I wrote for fun because I LOVE Jikook individually/together/whatever. (I adore every member but in reality I have a Jimin bias which is constantly wrecked by Yoonkook.) Anyway, this was written with NO disrespect to any of the members. I truly do love them all. Since I've become so obsessed with Bangtan over these last few months-and reading an unhealthy amount of bangtan fanfic-this was just bursting to get out. Hope you enjoy!!!…

'The best way to make alliances, is with marriage.' Daenerys Targaryen sits on the Iron Throne. Days after arriving in Westeros, the Lannister forces were destroyed; in a reign of fire and blood not seen since Aegon's conquest. As the ash settles she turns her gaze north, where a bastard calls himself king and the people eye her with fear and suspicion. Intent on unifying the realms of north and south, she rides her army to Winterfell, armed with a proposition that could ensure peace for generations to come.Jon Snow - battle weary and reluctant - has been crowned King of The North. Heralded a hero after the battle of The Bastards, he has no designs on the Iron Throne for himself. Haunted by what he's seen beyond the wall, Jon welcomes Daenerys Targaryen, fully intent on bending the knee, knowing he will need her support in the Great War still to come.Jon is stunned by Daenerys's proposition - offered to him atop the snow covered walls of the castle he grew up a bastard with a bastard's name. As Jon finally confronts his destiny, he will be forced to question everything he has ever known about himself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*DISCLAIMER* This is GoT Fanfiction. This is an alternate take on the ending of GoT which in terms of timeline would be set after the events of SEASON 6 of the TV show. The books are perfect and I shall not be messing with them. *ANOTHER DISCLAIMER* I do not own these characters. George RR Martin does and are featured in his series of novels: A Song of Ice and Fire. This is mainly Jonerys fanfic. Some of your other favourite characters may appear, but they will be secondary because Jonerys is endgame, Jonerys is the only show in town, Jonerys is life, Jonerys4Life... Ad infinitum. This is essentially a complete rewrite of the last two seasons of the show which feels completely necessary at the moment for to me to nurse this broken heart. Updates whenever - I shouldn't even be writing this!…

"So, then you are who I think you are?" I ask.He pulls the scarf down again to expose his mouth and gives me a wry smile. "Depends on who it is you think I am, I suppose." His face gives nothing away but there's a twinkle in his eye. I bite my lip feeling shy all of a sudden. "Um, I'm Francesca. My friends call me Frankie." I tell him. If it's not him then I can be on my way and home in ten minutes and he'll be just a lunatic hiker who picked the wrong month to go explore the great outdoors. Then he'll freeze and die and I'll have a strangers death on my conscience and not the death of an A-list actor I've had a crush on for ten years. "Nice to meet you Frankie," he says. "I'm Tom. But my friends call me Tommy. I'd shake your hand but I reckon I might lose it you know? It's probably halfway gone already." He flexes his fingers to check the life in them. And I'm no longer calm. Ok. So this was happening. I'd been stopped by a hitchhiking Tom Hardy on a remote desolate island in the middle of a bloody snowstorm. You just never knew the minute did you?******************************************************Just a fun A/U FanFic about the god that is Tom Hardy. This is A/U. Tom is not married in this universe. In my fantasy universe he's married to me. In another universe he's a sexy pirate. In another universe he's the emperor of a kingdom of dogs (woof) ... you get the gist. IT'S A VALENTINES FANTASY.Hope you enjoy! Please remember to vote! ❤❤❤…

When a woman from their past comes hurtling back into their lives after eight years, Christian Grey and Gideon Cross must navigate their way through a web of secrets and lies which threaten to destroy them. At the same time they must both confront their love of the same woman, and the night that changed all of their lives forever. This is NOT the story you know. Neither is it an extension of Ana and Christian's love story. For context, this story takes place in the same universe as Fifty Shades of Grey, but a few days prior to the events of the first book. ** This story contains very strong language and scenes of a sexual nature and is intended for mature audiences only** The legal bit: I do not own the characters of Christian Grey or Gideon Cross. These are the creations of E.L James and Sylvia Day respectively.…

This is a little insight into how my Imagine came to be, what it felt like to pitch a story, have it approved and then have it published! GAHHH. It's every writers dream right!?…
