  This one is already gone:
  https://thegirlintrouble.wordpress.com is no longer available.
  The authors have deleted this site.

  Which URL are you referring to?

  All blogs are independent websites so what you do one one has no effects on any others. Deleting a blog URL is a permanent irreversible act.

  To delete a free hosted WordPress.COM blog you must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered a blog to delete the blog Dashboard → Tools → Delete Site http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

  Alternatively, to change blog visibility to private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3 . See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blogs and/or blog content does not remove it from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months.
