Testing Fate
Part 25
*Justin's POV*
It had been a few days since I had seen Selena, but that was okay with both of us because we had been texting and stuff. Honestly, I needed this time alone to reflect on my life especially over these last few roller coaster, months.
With my break, I really spent a lot of time praying to God and trying to figure out what He had in store for me. Did He even want me to marry Selena? Did He want me to have kids with her right now?
So by the end of my focus session on God, I had been reminded that God really did have a plan for me even if I can't see it. He has big plans.
I had finally decided after this one phone call, I was going to go over to Selena's and finally work on being us again, because I don't see us going anywhere if we aren't 100 percent into this relationship.
"Justin?" The soothing female voice asked on the other side of the phone.
"Hi mom," I said with a small smile on my lips. Some people may call me a bit of a momma's boy but she was my mother so I guess I was okay with that.
"How are you, honey?" she asked slightly shocked that I had called because we hadn't really had much time for talk for quite some time so this phone call was long overdue.
"Actually mom, not all that great," I replied honestly letting her know everything that I had been struggling with.
"Honey, you did the right thing. You have to surrender it all to God and let Him take the reins on your life and trust that He knows what He's doing. It's going to be hard at first believe me but it will be worth it."

"But how am I supposed to know what God wants me to do? It's not like he's physically here with me telling me to do this and not do that," I said letting go of something I had really had a hard time with.
"Your heart will tell you everything you need to know," she said in the most comforting way.
We spent the next hour or so catching up and I had to admit, it was really great getting to talk to my mom again.
After we hung up, I went to get my shoes and keys. Just as I was about to leave, the door bell rang catching me off guard.
I opened the door slowly seeing as I wasn't expecting any guest and to my surprise the one person I wanted to see was standing right in front of me.
"Selena," I breathed.
"I know I shouldn't have come but I needed to see you," she said lowering her head, almost as if she was ashamed.
"I was actually just about to go see you," I said honestly causing her head to snap up.
Next thing I know, her lips collided with mine and the rest of the night was heaven.
*Selena's POV*
I woke feeling super happy over they way things had turned out. It was actually a lot easier than I thought it would be and I would be pregnant in no time but I can't help but wonder what Justin would say if I asked him what he thought about giving James and Leigh a baby.
"Good morning, Princess," Justin said with a smile plastered on his lips.
"Morning handsome."
"Did you sleep good?" He asked propping himself up.
"I always sleep good when I'm with you," I smiled kissing his nose softly.

"What do you want to do today?"
"Are we playing 20 questions now?" I asked playfully, raising my eye brow.
He chucked softly muttering and apology but it was adorable to me.
"And to answer your question. How about we lay in bed all day and just want movies and cuddle like we used to a long time ago. How does that sound?"
"Anything that has to do with you sounds perfect," he smirked rolling on top of me with a long, meaningful kiss.

"Hey Sel?" Justin asked turning off the DVD player after our all day movie marathon.
"Huh?" I asked slightly turning my head in his direction.
"What happened to your parents. I haven't really heard you talk much about them since we got back together," he said honestly.
"Nothing. They moved back to Texas with Gracie and I talk to them about once, maybe twice a week," I said leaning my head onto the pillow.
I really did miss Brian and my mom but they said that I was a big girl and I didn't need them anymore so they moved to get Gracie away from the life as much as possible.
"I miss them," he said throwing his hands behind his head looking up at the ceiling.
"Yeah me too," I muttered turning on my side.
"When's your next job?"
"Not for a while. I wanted to take it easy and just see where the road takes me. I don't want to rush anything but if a part comes my way then I'll jump on it. I'm still not sure if I want to do music or acting more," at this point I felt like I was really talking to myself with how honest I was being with him but I just felt free. Like I didn't need to hold back how I was feeling because I know he would pressure or judge me.
"You know I'll be there with whatever you choose," he whispered in my ear making me smile.
"Yeah I do. I love you."
"I love you Selena Marie," he said kissing my nose making me giggle.

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
