《The Blue Assassins》XXII

Someone knocks on my door and I groan.
"What do you want?"
"Can I come in?"
I open my eyes and look down at my clothes. "Um, can you wait a few seconds?"
"Sure." River responds and I slowly stand up. I change into black leggings and a random jersey. Then I open the door and look into River's hazel eyes.
"Hi, River."
"Hello, my queen." He smiles and I roll my eyes.
I let him enter my room as I lean on my dresser.
"What do you want?" I ask him and he raises an eyebrow at me.
"Ooh, you're a grumpy one in the morning, aren't you?"
"I don't know how everybody isn't."
River chuckles, nodding. "Wanna have breakfast with me?"
I gulp and he stares at me, waiting for my answer. Biting my lip, I say, "Uh, yeah. Okay."
"Alrighty." He smiles and I take some deep breaths, "Follow me."
I follow him upstairs with confusion. "Where are we going?"
"To the roof." River opens a door and I gasp.
"Such a beautiful view of the beach." I comment and he nods.
"I used to come here everyday as a kid."
"Lucky. The only beautiful view I had were bricks."
River laughs and I shake my head. "Well...I'm willing to share this spot with you."
I grin, "Deal!"
He pulls me to the edge of the roof and carefully sits me there, him beside me. I gaze at the beach and the water moving peacefully. The smell is the best. The cool breeze too.
"So what's for breakfast?" I question and River pulls out two plastic bags from his sweatshirt. He hands one to me and I quickly open it up.

"River!" I exclaim, smiling, and he chuckles.
"I heard you had an obsession with Nutella so..." He shrugs, "I thought Nutella on waffles would be the best breakfast for you."
I hug him.
"Oh." River laughs, "Okay. We're hugging now."
"You're the best." I kiss his cheek and he blushes a little.
Where did that boost of confidence come from?
"Thanks." He murmurs and I eat my waffle.
"Now I have to do something for you."
"No! Really, it's okay. I wasn't expecting anything back. I just..." He stammers, "I don't know. We're getting married and everything. I guess I just wanted to make the situation better for you. With you being my fiancée and all..."
I grin widely, "Yeah. I'm gonna have to do something really good."

For the other half of the day, I managed to get some alone time. I made a group chat with Eric and Emily, talked to them about the most recent events, and I watched two movies they said had just came on Netflix. River allowed me to have my phone back since I was going to be marrying him pretty soon-
I bolt out of my bed and run down the hall to River's room. He was normally in his room in the afternoons, I noticed.
"Who is it?" He asks when I knock.
"Blair."
The door instantly opens and I slip inside. He raises an eyebrow at me as he closes the door.
"What's wrong?"
"We didn't even start planning!"
His expression is confused for a moment before he nods understandingly. "Oh. The wedding. Right. Um, I have some time right now?"
I nod, "Okay. How much? An hour and a half, hopefully?"
"Actually, I have two hours and a half." River responds and my eyebrows lift.
"Wow. That's even better!"
"Well, it was supposed to be a mini break for me but I would've ended up training." He shrugs, "Anyway, let's get started."
"First of all, I need paper and a pen."

World After Calamity
Two hundred years ago, the Calamity occurred, an event which changed the terrain and climates of the world immensely, shifting continents and regions, developing new religions and altering life itself. The existence of magic and monsters was no longer able to be concealed, and until the Sage came and ended the Calamity, the world lived in chaos. Now, two hundred years later, two primary forces in the globe, united under a single government, oversee all magical and supernatural crime and disruptions, working from the shadows and in the light to ensure the safety of all. Something has upset the delicate balance the Sage created, however, and monsters sightings occur more and more frequently, and the signs of a second Calamity have begun to reveal themselves. At the same time, young superhumans begin training to fight against the forces causing this, to protect the mundane from monsters, and to ensure ancient artifacts are preserved and secured.

The Puppy Project
"Give me my puppy!" I demanded, my eyes ablazed with fiery anger."Correction, it's not your puppy. It's our puppy," He smiled, but it was anything but sweet nor happy."You know what? Damn you! You're nothing but a cold, emotionless, and heartless bad boy!" I sneered, glaring at him fiercely.He chuckled at my words, taking a step closer to me. He slammed his hand unto the wall, trapping me, before leaning in close. "You got that right sweetheart but I think you got one thing wrong." He said, his eyes piercing straight into mine."And what is that?" I managed to asked, my throat seeming to get drier the more he looked at me."I'm neither one of those when I'm with you," and with those words, slammed his lips into mine.#1 in Strong-Female Character - 1/29/21#1 in Sarcasm - 2/4/21#2 in BadBoy - 2/13/21#3 in Teen Fiction - 2/13/21#1 in Mysterious - 3/4/21Copyrighted 2017.
