《Don't Forget Me-Matthew Espinosa》Chapter 17
Advertisement
It's been a few weeks since I was sick and I feel much better now. I told my mom as soon as she got home, and she scheduled a doctor's appointment. Turns out it was just a bad case of the stomach virus.
Matt stayed with me all week. As soon as school as over, he'd come straight over to my house and stay with me until he had to go home. That was about a month or so ago so I'm obviously not sick anymore.
Today is Thursday, and tomorrow Matt and I were planning to go on a date since we haven't really gone a real one in forever. I didn't really want to do anything special, but he insisted that we do something fancy since all we ever do is hang out at each other's houses.
It took us awhile to brainstorm where we could go that was somewhat fancy. Then we came to the conclusion that we should just go to a posh restaurant. I have no idea what to wear yet, I'll have to figure that out later.
Currently, I'm on my computer watching Netflix and too lazy to pick out an outfit. I feel my phone vibrate interrupting me from my show, Bob's Burgers. Honestly, it's my favorite show.
Matt: Ready for tomorrow?!
Me: You literally just interrupted me from watching my show..
Matt: Well then
Me: Don't worry though.. I'm hype
Matt: haha same. I'll let you get back to your show now.
Me: K thanks
I love him, but no one interrupts my Netflix time.. or else.
While watching my show I keep thinking about what I should wear. A dress? A skirt? What color? How long? It really started bothering me, so I went to my closet to see what I could wear for tomorrow.

I picked out a few things, but wasn't sure which one would be perfect. My options so far were a cute form- fitting dress, a bodycon skirt with a nice blouse, or another dress that was longer and less form- fitting. I spread all three outfits out on my bed, and really put some thought into which was cutest. I then decided that the skirt and blouse was too uptight and boring. Here came the hard part.
Both of the dresses I picked were extremely cute and appropriate for the occasion. So, I tried each one on. I tried the longer one on first. It went all the down to my ankles and was a chic color of pink. The straps on the back criss- crossed forming an "X" on my back. It was really cute!
This dress was much different. It was way shorter than other lying just above my knee. Rather than a light pink, it was a dark maroon. It had a black collar at the top which made it perfect for the fitting the "formal" characteristic.
I did the same thing looking at the mirror as I did in the other dress. I turned to the side and smoothed it out, but when I went over my stomach I noticed something. A lump was there, like a rather large lump. I thought to myself this isn't normal, 15 year olds don't just randomly grow lumps at their stomachs. Then again I get really bloated after I drink too much so that's probably why I have this strange lump at my stomach.
I'm really trying to think the best of this situation, but my mind is thinking of the worst possibilities.
To prove that it was just me being bloated I drank some more because usually after I pee I no longer have a lump. I drank everything I could before I felt like my bladder was going to burst. I ran to the bathroom before anything bad happened, like me leaving a trail of pee throughout my house. After I went to the bathroom, I went to my room to look in the mirror again. Turned to the side, and it was still there. The stupid lump was still there, and now I really started panicking. If it was just me being bloated, it would have gone away by now.

I'm no longer thinking about the best possibilities anymore. I'm thinking maybe I have cancer, because when you first spot cancer, it's in the form of a lump. I would know my sister has leukemia. Yet, I feel as though if it was cancer, the lump wouldn't be this low and this big.
That means there's only one thing left that it could be then..
I'm pregnant.
"I'm fucking pregnant!"

Of Men and Dragons, Book 2
Jack, S'haar, and all their family are back. After crashing his ship on an underdeveloped world, Jack found friends and family among the terrifying cat-lizard natives of the world, but now mere survival is no longer enough. They must carve out a new home for themselves in the landscape of the now rapidly changing world. Raiders, politics, and even nature threaten their happiness and their lives while they struggle to deal with the nightmares and traumas of yesterday. They'll need to depend on each other more than ever if they hope for their new home to have any kind of future. In case you missed it, here's book one. ATTENTION: This is soft sci-fi rather than hard sci-fi, hence why I chose that tag. For those of you unfamiliar with the distinction, here's what Wikipedia had to say. 1. It explores the "soft" sciences, and especially the social sciences (for example, anthropology, sociology, or psychology), rather than engineering or the "hard" sciences (for example, physics, astronomy, or chemistry). 2. It is not scientifically accurate or plausible; the opposite of hard science fiction. Soft science fiction of either type is often more concerned with character and speculative societies, rather than speculative science or engineering. The term first appeared in the late 1970s and is attributed to Australian literary scholar Peter Nicholls.

Ebony Chitin - Eclipse
Richard Adams is something of a talented alchemist. One of the few magical professions that have anything to do with some kind of science. Everything was going swimmingly, until the 'cold night' incident happened. With it being determined as his fault, that such a thing happened. He was promptly exiled until he could return to Eclipse with a new 'discovery' for his field. What he didn't expect; was that he'd run into a strange humanoid monster that could seemingly heal any life threatening wound in a matter of seconds. Certainly this would be what he needs to become a master alchemist. The first step on a multi series journey. Please excuse the earliest chapters and their poor grammer. Ebony Chitin follows Richard Adams, and Mimi on their Journey to understand each other and the world around them. Due the the exploratory nature of such a claim, it will cover many different topics. This was my first attempt at actually writing a story, and because of that I will not edit it. I'd suggest reading the second part as it comes out as most of the things within this book will be recapped. Though if it becomes popular I hope it might inspire some of you readers to write your own stories. Cover Art by Rose Dragon

Tesla Stone and the World of Smoke and Mirrors
R0Q-T357-Alpha (callsign: Rock) is a "Core Child," an irredeemably-crippled test tube baby modified and repurposed by an advanced U.S. military project to serve as the CPU for two-thirds of America's orbital defense systems. Though no one outside of the Pentagon has ever heard of him, he protected his homeland from three ICBMs, a Pacific theatre invasion fleet, and one rogue asteroid. Now, after twenty-seven years of distinguished service from "birth," he is being honorably discharged into civilian life. The only problem is that "civilian life" isn't exactly livable for a glorified brain in a jar. How does a couple pounds of grey matter surrounded by five tons of life support systems and enough co-processing enhancements to take over the planet enjoy an early retirement when he's surrounded by overzealous politicians, corporate spies, and foreign agents after military secrets? The real world isn't that forgiving.

The WereLionesses Mate
She was running out of breath, but that didn't matter, all that mattered was getting away from him and proving him wrong. Branches scraped her face and her arms, her body burning hot; but cold from her sweat as the wind blew over her skin. Her pants soaked from running through the streams, her shirt ripped to shreds around her stomach from very low hanging branches. Her hair, a tumbling fiery mess of tangles, and waves slipping through the ponytail she had quickly fastened trying to tame her wild hair. Running and crawling on the ground through the forest floor, trying to get back to the camp grounds so Whhooossshhhh! All of a sudden a giant gust of wind flew past her nearly lifting her off the ground and throwing her into a tree. Where in the world did that wind come from? She thought, but she kept running like it had never happened. She jumped over a fallen log, ignoring the fact that she almost fell in the process. She zoomed past all the trees and sprinted over the roots coming out of the ground. She rounded another tree coming to a sudden halt at seeing him standing there with a drink in his hand laughing and joking. She stood there wondering how in the world he could have beaten her here; He looked at her then, He looked, well, handsome, his faced was clean shaven and his button up shirt was all unbuttoned minus the three at the bottom. She could still visibly see his bronze chest and the top of his ripped-hard abs. He walked over to her and smiled, showing all of his teeth, the smile reaching his eyes. His eyes were dark and stormy, their color was usually a nice honey brown but now his eyes looked mid-night black. They looked like they could kill a man at eighty paces, but could sweep a woman off her feet at the same time.
