《Notes in My Locker》I. All Nighter
Advertisement
I'm pulling an all nighter, so go touch some grass.
Natalie James's POV
"Dani, I need the taco shells!"
I finish seasoning the meat, cutting up the tomatoes, lettuce before taking out the sour cream and shredded cheese.
Dani walks into the kitchen and reaches up to the cabinet and hands me the taco shells, smiling before heading off to the living room to watch the Netflix original, OuterBanks.
I put all of the tacos on to a platter and walk over to the table in the dining room, setting it in the middle of the table.
Grabbing two pitchers filled with water and lemonade, mom doesn't want us having too much soda due to the fact we could get kidney stones.
"Dinner is ready!"
I shout as I settle down in my usual spot and watch as my brother and sisters rush into the room happily.
We grab our normal amount of tacos, but didn't start eating until mom came downstairs.
We watched as our mom come downstairs with her hair in a messy bun, she looked exhausted but I don't think I could blame her.
She sat beside Ainsley and gave her temple a kiss.
"How was everyone's day?"
She asked as we began to eat our tacos, we looked at one another.
My day wasn't all that, I mean I woke up, so points for that but I had nothing to do.
"I was planning on pulling an all nighter, if that's okay?"
I asked politely as I poured some lemonade into my glass cup, I was hoping an all nighter would fix my mood.
I found myself way too energized with nothing to do, so why not fix it with an all nighter.
"Yeah, I mean you don't have school and it is summer right now."

I smiled and finished eating, I got up from my seat and placed my dish in the sink before I ran upstairs.
I changed into a hoodie and shorts, leaving my hair down before I laid on my bed.
I turned the TV on and put on HBO, I couldn't help but smile when Euphoria began.
I turned on my LEDs to purple and wrapped myself in my safety blanket and gave all my attention to my TV.
After a couple of watching Euphoria, it ended.
I didn't know what to do now, it was only twelve in the morning.
I decided that this would be a failed all nighter, so I decided to shut my TV off and go to sleep.
I don't know what I expected, I have been going to bed early for some time now and now that I've had time to go to sleep late, I just can't.
I lied in bed for a bit, eventually the sleep went away and I walked downstairs to grab a snack.
"What are you doing up?"
I turned around to notice Dani, she walked in.
"I should be asking you that Dani."
I returned the question before grabbing some cookies and a glass of milk, walking to the dining table to eat it.
"Are you sneaking out to see your lover?"
I scoffed and looked at her, disapprovingly.
I mean what lover do I have?
I'm pulling an all nighter, so go touch some grass.
I put my cup in the sink and quietly but quickly walk upstairs and into my room, where the sleepiness returns.
I lay down on my bed before I closed my eyes and give into my tiredness.
Hopefully I could sleep in tomorrow, maybe that'll fix my sleeping schedule or screw it up even more.

The Designated: Out of Control
It happened quicker than anyone would have imagined. Multiple hurricanes were one thing. People had dealt with that in the past. But, like kids playing dominoes, one thing crashed into another. Areas affected by hurricanes needed resources all along the Gulf and East Coasts drew rescuers and resources away from other parts of the country. When wildfires lit up the Pacific coast and mid-west, those areas were already understaffed. Driven by hurricanes in the Pacific basin, uncontrolled wildfires burned through towns, destroying everything in their paths. Across the Pacific, Asia didn't escape. From the Philippines, across China, into Indochina, and Bangladesh and India. Typhoons and cyclones pounded the coasts and far inland. Widespread flooding forced millions from their homes and across international borders. Mexico was hit hard and thousands died in mudslides as Katia slammed into their East Coast. The refugees fled north and west. Rumours started that hundreds of thousands were headed for the US border. Instead of running out of steam in the southern US, several hurricanes tore up the eastern seaboard, devastating cities and renewing their strength before veering east across the Atlantic. Maria and Ophelia veered east and slammed into Europe, reaching as far as the Netherlands and Russia before finally dissipating. After that, too many weather stations were offline to provide any form of co-ordinated information or warnings. Wildfires in Portugal burned ahead of the storms, fanned by hurricane winds. They sparked wildfires leapfrogging across Europe, beyond any one country's ability to cope. Already uneasy from multiple terrorist attacks over the summer, anti-refugee groups seized the opportunity to stage protests across Europe. Some turned violent as they clashed with police forces. Several governments declared martial law to quell the rioting and enforce evacuations along the path of the storms. Rumour and speculation overwhelmed facts. Unrest spilled over into widespread violence. Then sickness broke out in the displaced populations. Within a matter of a dozen weeks, tens of millions died. In the coming winter months hundreds more would follow. The Designated Project was activated.

The Other - a (man) called Ted
A figure, large and present through time in ways most would not understand. Seemingly uncaring about all except his own principles, the one we refer to as the Other (for legitimate reasons, lest some accidentally call upon his old name), finds his way through life. Though refusing to claim the title himself, this (immortal)'s projects have begun to leave him behind, awaiting some accident to move him back into the world. - - - - - - Initially intended to be a novella, then a project to keep me sane in busy times IRL, this will be considered the roughest of drafts. Also, IRL may prevent me from regular updates after the backlog is done. Tags with a grain of salt, items may be mentioned briefly in story so far, or in chapters already written but not published. Content warnings just in case. Some perspective switching in the first several chapters. Legitimately though, in the first chapters an explanation is provided for referencing to the MC as 'the Other.'
