《Adopted By Thomas Sanders and The Sanders Sides (UNDER EDITING!)》The Accident.

*The night before*
"Sean!" Aricka protests, as Jack mercilessly tickles her. "No fair!" she was gasping for air as he let her go. Checking her phone, she stood up. "Dad's waiting outside for me." they walk out, and before she climbs into the passenger seat, Jack claimed a kiss. "I love you," she murmurs.
"I love you too," he answers, and shuts the door, watching them pull away. "More than you'll ever know."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nothing prepared the Sanders household for what would happen that morning.
Aricka woke up, and checked her phone as normal:
Text from: Mama Mcloughlin:
Aricka, Sean was in an accident last night-he didn't make it. Will you come to the visitation this afternoon?
A haunted scream tore its way through Aricka's throat and out of her mouth, "SEAN!" she cries, sending Roman and Virgil running. She'd dropped her phone, and fell to the ground crying. "No, no, no!" she whispered over and over. Virgil runs to Aricka, and hugs her, while Roman looks at her phone. "OH NO SEAN!" she suddenly screams. "No!" that brought the other four in.
"What-?" Patton asks. Roman pushes them out and shows them the text, making Patton and Damien cry, and Thomas and Logan gasp. They look in and see Aricka crying and Virgil holding her, tears falling down his own face.
"No, not Sean. Not Sean." they could hear her whisper. "Please, not my Sean." Virgil rocked her gently, trying to calm her down. He gives Roman a helpless look.
What were they going to do?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aricka was numb. Mama Mcloughlin held her for a few minutes, then led her over to the coffin where Jack was. A strangled cry left her, and she grabbed Jack's hands. "Jack, open your eyes," she whispers. "Jack, c'mon, baby. Don't do this. Jack!" His hand was cold and lifeless. "Sean, baby. C'mon. Don't-I need you!"

*time skip*
"Aricka, Sean's girlfriend, graciously agreed to sing a song for this tragic occasion."
Aricka walks up to the podium. "I'll-uh-be singing mine and Jack's song." the music starts:
"Your eyes, your smile, I can't read, what they're telling me
One time, is all that I need (yeah, yeah)
Don't hide behind, those looks, that you're giving me
Who knows where this might lead?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
So come a little bit, come a little bit closer
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Cause' I just want to get to know you
I wanna get to know you better
You can tell me all your secrets
Don't hide them from me
Yeah, yeah
I wanna get to know you better
I'm there for you whenever
You wanna get to know me?..." then she started to cry again. She couldn't finish-could she?
Suddenly someone takes her hand and starts singing with her. It was-Virgil?
"Cause' I'm cool with that
Who makes first move?
Half way, is where I'll meet you
Your right, is where I wanna be
Yeah
I get, that your scared
Don't be, 'cause girl your beautiful
I wanna know your whole story, yeah oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
So come a little bit, come a little bit closer
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Cause' I just want to get to know you
I wanna get to know you better
You can tell me all your secrets
Don't hide them from me
Yeah..."

Most people think having powers would be amazing. Not Nate. If he had it his way, he’d never use them and pretend they weren’t there. His powers, though, seem to have other ideas. Uncontrolled powers sound problematic on their own, but when people can destroy entire city blocks with a wayward glance, they become a whole new issue entirely. Nate has always felt like he’s had wary eyes watching him, waiting for him to slip up. So far, he’s managed to just barely keep his head down, but when his powers force him to step into the spotlight, he finds himself caught up in the one life he never wanted; heroism. Now, will he find a way to accept the powers he blames for all his problems, or will he crumble under the pressure? Note: I primarily upload on my website on Sundays . I'll upload here regularly up to a day after the chapters go live on the main site. Vote for aka on TopWebFiction! Feel free to join the aka Discord.

Fat Boy Hero
Rueben Burger is a high school student and he is severely obese. He also suffers from a penchant for doing the right thing even if it means placing himself in a difficult or compromising position. Which is how Rueben finds himself in an apartment that is larger on the inside than it should be, about to be fired at by a weapon he has never seen the likes of in a building that is on fire. Super powers! The result of his sojourn in the burning building. Now Rueben has a few decisions to make. Does he become the hero he has always dreamed of being, or does he stay out of the fight to keep his Grandmother safe? Does Rueben give up his power to be the skinny kid he has desperately longed to be? Find out this and much more in the first book of the Fat Boy Hero Series. -History of FBH- Fat Boy Hero is a story long in the making. The idea came from my love of hero stories, but the lack of relatable heroes. By that i mean there were no, or few heroes that dealt with weight gain. Something I have and am dealing with after leaving the Marine Corps. So Fat Boy Hero was born. Check out the link below to listen to an episode of The Round Table Podcast where I brainstormed the idea with the hosts and special guest Michael underwood. http://www.roundtablepodcast.com/2013/03/workshop-episode-53-guest-host-michael-r-underwood/ This book is a side project and will be updated as time permits. I hope you do not find this too off-putting.

Stairway to Heaven
Humans are complicated, awfully fragile beings, far too weak to survive amid the other extraterrestrials that lie dormant across the galaxies. Instead of physical altercations, they would rather engage in verbal abuse, breaking an individual's psyche as a hobby. They excel at deception and manipulation, far too interested in bringing their brothers and sisters down and reaching for the top of their self-made hierarchies. Beyond their questionable nature and moral compasses, they long to find meaning in their lives and put names to the feelings that drive each passing moment. They are insatiable—far too greedy for more knowledge and a supposed understanding of their lives. It's pitiable, really, the way they struggle to find themselves while ravaging their kind through petty wars and conflicts built off of misunderstanding. Humans are complicated, awfully fragile beings. They created words and languages to fill the holes that lived inside their souls, desperate for ways to find meaning in their incredibly short lifespans. They'll waste their entire lives trying to find their so-called passions and reasons for living, acting as if they truly rule the way their lives go, supposed "controllers of their own destiny." Yet, they cannot evade the inevitable visit from death, who stands next to them, ticking the seconds down until their demise.

Cairo
Beaten, Scarred, tortured, and deprived of all emotion, Cairo wants nothing more but to find his happiness again. After being imprisoned and forced to murder for his survival inside of the Gulag for five years, a conundrum of mysterious explosions leads to his long-overdue escape. Seven years have passed since then, and for the past six months, Cairo has been staying at a lowly bar in the small town of Worcester. With the world around him filled with the Gifted—those who possess inhuman abilities—most of his days are spent hiding in the shadows of his hood, avoiding any and all human contact. However, once an axe-wielding maniac barges into the tavern he’s staying at, Cairo is forced into an unpredictable situation: save the innocent bartender that is forced under the axe, or run away, just like he always has. Urging to fight against the sight of bloodshed, Cairo stops the axe-wielder, only to realize that the bartender planned this, hoping to reveal his identity from the start, and uncover the hidden truths lying within his hood.
