《Bad is an Understatement | ✓》Chapter 16

"Heath give me my phone." I call before he can exit the empty classroom.
"No."
"Why?!"
"Because I have it and if you want it back you'll have to do something for me."
"No!" I cross my arms.
"Then I guess you don't want your phone back as bad as I thought." He turns around to leave.
"Okay! Fine. What do you want me to do?" He stops and turns back around. A grin on full display.
"Stay away from Luke it's as simple as that." My heart skips a beat.
"Why?"
"Because you want your phone back."
"No why are you so against me being friends with Luke?!"
"Because he's not good for you." He simply says trying to keep his anger hidden.
"I've had enough of your bullshit Heath. You don't know what's good for me or not. I definitely don't need someone analyzing that for me especially someone who has no idea what I've been through before I came here. I'm more then capable to take care of myself, because that's what I've been doing since I was fourteen!"
"Riley, I'm not saying you can't take care of yourself I'm just trying to help you see the fact that Luke isn't good. I don't want you to get hurt. I just care about you that's all."
"I've been hurt more times then you could count Heath." A tear slips from my eye," And if you really cared, you would've told me that your girlfriend was behind Mark almost killing me during the game." Heath's eye widen in shock.
He walks closer to me. I take a step back away from him," Riley, I'm so sorry I-"
"You what? You were going to tell me, but you didn't know how?" I look up at him, but he looks away. "You're pathetic." I scoff walking past him.
*********
Was I too hard on him? He probably thinks I'm on my period or something. Typical guys. I roll my eyes at the thought. Listening to Next by The Weeknd, I think about how I outburst on Heath.

It was just a phone Riley and Heath shouldn't have had such an effect on you. I shouldn't care what he does or cares about. Why does he care about me? I still don't know what's so bad about Luke. I sigh.
"Riley, I'm not saying you can't take care of yourself I'm just trying to help you see the fact that Luke isn't good. I don't want you to get hurt. I just care about you that's all."
Whow. He called me Riley? He must've been serious. Ugh! I shouldn't have outburst like that. A loud pounding on the door averts my attention. I yank my headphones out," Jen I know you have a fucking key! If I open that door and find out it's you. It won't be pretty!" I say walking to the door.
I open the door to reveal Dylan," What the hell is wrong with you Dylan?! You could've literally broken the door." I check for any dents.
"Is someone on their period?" He asks like he's talking to a kid walking inside, past me.
"Oh yeah come right on in." I exaggerate. "And no I'm not on my period." I close the door after I make sure there's no damage done on the door.
"Oh, so I guess you don't need these chocolates I brought?" He says holding up two white Lindor chocolate bars. I grab them out of his hands.
"Who said that?" I open the wrapper and take a bite out of the delicious mouth watering chocolate. He laughs, " Why are you here, Dylan?"
He sits beside me on the bed and holds up some papers," The graphing assignment?" He quirks his eyebrows. I gasp.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I totally forgot we were suppose to work on it yesterday." I sigh," Jen and Kylie really wanted to take me out and I'm sorry."
"It's okay." He laughs," There's still two days left. But I was messaging you all day. Why weren't you messaging me back?"

"I don't have my phone, and why'd you bring chocolate for me?" I ask taking another bite.
"I heard you weren't in your best mood today." He says quietly.
"And who was this person that told you?" I ask already knowing the answer.
"Heath." He mumbles.
"And did he also tell you that he's the one who has my phone, or that he's the reason I'm mad?"
"Ohhh. Makes sense, and no he didn't." I nod," Okay, you know what he's a jerk sometimes. Just forget about him and lets get started on the homework." He says opening up his laptop.
*********
"No way! Are you serious?"
"Yeah after that day Heath's ego has been higher than an eagle could ever fly." I laugh.
"Explains a lot about him." I say and the door clicks open.
"Heyyy, Rileyyy..." Jen says walking in. "Dylan? What are you two doing together?"
"Working on a project." I reply.
"While eating Chinese take out?" Jen asks.
"We got hungry." Dylan protests.
"You could've at least ordered me some."
"You've been awol the whole day." I complain.
"Yeah, I had to cheer her up by bringing her chocolates, and tell her the story about Heath when he was ten."
"Oh! You told her that?" Jen laughs, Dylan and I both nod joining in on the laugh. "What's wrong?" Jen sits down beside me.
"Nothing."
"She's on her period." Dylan says.
"No I'm not." I glare at Dylan," I'll tell you when I am and it's not today for sure." Jen nods not believing me, and I roll my eyes," Where have you been the whole day?"
"I went out with Kylie to get my car back." She says," I messaged you."
"Yeah I don't have my phone."
"Did you lose it?"
"Nope it's very well kept in Heath Lever's hands."
"My brother has your phone?" Jen's eyes widen.
"Yes!" I groan.
"How?"
"From that stupid prank this morning. Well it wasn't stupid, but still."
"Oh." She says not making eye contact.
"Wait a minute. You left me with that monster you call your brother this morning. Alone!" I grab a pillow off the bed and smack her with it.
"Hey, hey!.. Stop!"
"No! You little. Ugh!" I stop. "I lost my phone because of you two." I cup my face with my hands.
"Hey, Dylan came after us, took the most ugliest pictures of and then posted them online for the whole world to see. I've been getting comments all morning." She sends a glare his way.
"Well I didn't get to see them."
"You'll get your phone back. Eventually." Dylan says and I give him a dead stare," Okay. There must've been some sort of catch." He adds raising his eyebrows at me.
"Yes."
"What was it?" Jen asks.
"I have to stay away from Luke, and before you start saying that Luke is a bad guy and Heath is just trying protect me. Let's just get one thing straight. Luke is the only guy that I can openly talk to who doesn't judge me by the people I hang out with, and also the only guy who doesn't annoy the crap out of me." I say causing Dylan and Jen to remain quiet. I let out a breath," What time is it?" I sigh.
"Five forty. Why?" Jen asks.
"I have practice to go to." I get up. "We're done the thing right?" I ask Dylan and he nods," Okay, so you can just keep it and remember to bring it to class."
I'm so not ready for practice. Kirsten. Ugh!

Manaseared
Adventuring is for losers. Only the absolutely impoverished or the megalomaniacally mad would stoop to graverobbing and dungeon-delving to put food on their tables. As a career it is dangerous, unreliable, illegal, and infinitely unpleasant. Most who choose this life have no other options. They're the seventh sons of seventh sons, the disowned, bastards, impoverished and desperate, and nearly always young. And they are, without fail, losers. Eris is an adventurer. Eris is a loser. Like most of her make she's a teenage runaway with no other options. Unlike her company, she isn't fodder for the meatgrinder.

This is her story, as she grows into adulthood, masters her abilities, and learns to care about more than just herself. Manaseared is an episodic fantasy adventure serial. It's also a pastiche of early D&D and RPGs in general, and an attempt to explore at what it might really mean to be a first level adventurer.
