《Syria Girl》Damn close

Dean and the cashier turned. I think Dean swore.
‘Really? Really? How the hell did we lose to France again?’
I turned to the screen. The news programme had switched to sport. The Netherlands had taken a thumping in the football.
While Mila taunted him I let out a laugh of relief, ‘That was damn close.’
Dean shook his head,’ It wasn’t close. We don’t know what we’re doing on the field this year.’
Back on the road, everyone else took turns roasting the Netherlands football team. Dean, their most loyal supporter was also their harshest critic.
‘Conor, you me and Mila could give them a whipping. We’ll make our own team. This can be our tour bus.’
Conor shook his head, ‘I’ve got the reflexes of a whale.’
‘You’ll still be better than The Flying Dutchmen,’ Ayamin yelled.
There was a chorus of cheers from Mila and Conor, and sobbing from Dean.
But all the fun seemed muted to me. My mind just kept cycling back to the gas station. It seemed like the world was closing in on me.
And I haven’t even told Ayamin yet.
That was the part that was freaking me out. How’s she going to react? How am I going to tell her? I could feel my past catching up with me.
‘Danny?’
I looked away from the window. Ayamin was staring at me. She had a smile on her face.
‘All good Danny?’
I shrugged, trying to put myself back in the moment, ‘Yeah I’m good.’
I slapped a fake smile on my face and raised my voice, ‘Better than the Netherlands national football team anyway.’
Everyone laughed. But Ayamin didn’t laugh quite as much as the others. She nudged my shoulder with her chin, ‘Are you sure?’

‘I’m sure Aya.’
Ayamin nodded and leaned her head against my shoulder, ‘It’s getting dark outside.’
Out the window, the first stars were beginning to appear. They flickered and disappeared when we passed through towns, but re-joined our journey in the countryside. I looked at Ayamin, she had this warm sleepy smile on her face that broke my heart a little.
Forget about it, I told myself, enjoy this Danny, live in the moment.
I wrapped my arm around her and tried to focus on the rise and fall of her body as she breathed. Her eyes closed and not long after she slumped against me.
‘People’s faces never lie when they’re asleep,’ Connor said from the seat in front of me, ‘You’ve got a genuine human right there Danny.’
I stared at him, and his hoody pulled up around his head.
‘I know. Hell, I know.’
He smiled and nodded away to some beat in his head. I turned back to the window and wondered, what does my face look like when I’m asleep?

Dimensional Mage(?)
Jonah is your usual 19 year old, besides the fact that, to help his widowed Mother, he chooses to quit school and does many different part time jobs for money. He does that, so his little Sister can go to college and have a good education. But a month after his 18th Birthday everything changed. Underground stations and different monuments or big buildings changed to dungeons and everyone inside died. A new "System", together with blue boxes, got introduced and changed law and order completely. Now humans can level up and be as strong as Superman or be as fast as Flash. But to be like that, you have to risk your life in dungeons and kill monsters. Right after the system appeared on earth, an alien guild named Frontline-Guild, appeared and they chose to make different cities their base and keep the nearby dungeons safe, so that Humanity can survive. This is a story about Jonah Bellwood and how he rises to be the strongest mage(?) on earth. *This is my very first try at writing a novel and I'm not a native in English, so pls tell me mistakes and I will fix them ^^ *There won't be harem, but I will try myself on some romance. I always liked romance in LitRPG, so I will try my best do an acceptable romance that works together with the story. *Later I will also add some POV's for some important chars, but not for many, cuz thats too much for me at the moment.

He would explore an untamed world, one full of lush forests and creatures only ever seen as products of imagination. it wasn't like he was starting as a child either - he was as fully grown and augmented as he ever was.

8 73The Order of Serpents (Dramione)
During the Battle of Hogwarts, Harry Potter walked into the forbidden forest, died, and walked out with crimson eyes as the new vessel of the Dark Lord. Since then, Hermione Granger served as an elite member of the True Order, isolating herself from other Order members and going on missions alone, not only haunted by the loss of her best friend, Harry, but Ron who had run away after the battle. Three and a half years later, Draco Malfoy shows up with his two year old son on the Order's doorstep seeking to switch sides. Together, Draco and Hermione are forced to deal with not only each other, but their own past and confront who they've become because of the war.
