《Little Rebel》Chapter 20

I felt the car stop, but I kept my eyes closed, still leaning on Perrie.
"I wouldn't wake her up." I heard Perrie say. "She'll be cranky and will be annoying. Well, more than usual."
I internally rolled my eyes, knowing she was right.
I felt someone pick me up. "I got it." They muttered.
Someone else closed the car door.
I was carried inside and upstairs, then placed on a bed, probably mine.
They took off my glasses for me.
Whoever brought me up leaned over and kissed my head, making me almost open my eyes to see who is was.
They then left my room, closing the door behind them.
Who was that? Kian? Maybe.
I just rolled over, getting more comfortable and drifted off to sleep again.
###########
I woke up again and sat up, groggy.
I rubbed my eyes and put on my glasses, which were on my nightstand.
I decided to change, so I put on a pair of yoga pants and a sweatshirt and went downstairs.
"Well hey there sleeping beauty." Ricky said.
I grunted and sat next to him on the couch, tucking my feet under me and leaning against Ricky.
He just patted my head and went on watching Teen Wolf.
I sighed and watched tv with him.
"Oh, hi Jordyn." Kian said, coming in from the backyard, soaking wet.
I looked at him confused.
"Andrea's over and everyone other than you two are in the pool." He explained.
I nodded and cuddled into Ricky's side more.
"You ok?" Kian asked, looking concerned.
I shrugged. "I don't know. Even though I just woke up, I still feel, like, super tired."
Kian came over to me and felt my forehead.
"You do feel a little warm. Are you sure you're just tired?" He asked.
Again, I shrugged.

"I don't really know how I feel. I just feel weird. Weird and tired." I said.
Kian nodded. "Well just stay here with Ricky and I'll check on you in a little."
I nodded. "Kay."
Kian got a blanket and draped it over me.
I laid there for the rest of the day. Ricky stayed with me, getting up every once in a while.
I kept falling asleep, then waking up.
Ricky asked if I wanted to pick something to watch, but I said no, since I keep falling asleep.
I lazily traced my new tattoo with my pointer finger as we watched an episode of Psych on Netflix.
Everyone had come in by now and were doing different things.
Kian and Andrea went out to eat and Jc invited his girlfriend Lia over, and they were watching a romantic movie by themselves.
Connor had gone up to his room to go on Tumblr or something.
Nash had gone to bed, saying he was tired and wanted to retire early.
I was still leaning in Ricky and my legs were in Cameron's lap.
Perrie was sprawled across a chair, texting someone.
My eyes felt heavy and I could barely keep them open.
Ricky had his arm around me and was mindlessly stroking my hair.
Which was making me even more tired.
"You can go to sleep if you want Jordyn." Cameron said.
Everyone looked at me and I just closed me eyes.
"Well then I probably will." I said.
"Go ahead." Ricky told me.
I moved so my head was in Ricky's lap instead of on his shoulder.
He pushed my hair out from my face and smoothed it out.
I was almost asleep, when Kian and Andrea got back.
"Is she asleep?" Kian asked.
"Yeah." Ricky said, still running his fingers through my hair.

It felt really good.
"Whats wrong with her?" Andrea asked.
"She told me she wasn't feeling very good earlier. But she didn't really feel sick, just weird and tired." Kian explained.
"Well something is definitely wrong, because she was really quiet today and did nothing but lay down." Perrie said.
"Yeah, a normal Jordyn would be talking nonstop and wouldn't be able to get through one episode of anything. But she sat here with me watching tv ever since she woke up." Ricky said.
"Well, we'll see how she is in the morning and can deal with it then. Now it's important that she just sleeps." Kian said.
I agree, they should just shut up and let me sleep.
But of course they had to stay and keep talking.
Not about me necessarily. Just talking in general.
I had been drifting in and out of sleep for a while, not being able to sleep fully because they're voices kept waking me up.
Andrea had gone home and Kian, Perrie, Cameron, and Ricky were still talking.
"Did you know?" I heard Kian say.
"Know what?" Perrie asked.
He didn't say anything for a while. "About...Jordyn." Kian finally breathed out.
I almost opened my eyes hearing him say my name, but I just coudn't bring myself to. It was almost lie my eyelids were glued shut.
"Kian." Cameron said, almost in a warning tone.
"No, you told me Perrie helped Jordyn. So I want to know." Kian said.
Ricky shushed Kian since his voice was getting louder and kept stroking my hair.
"Perrie helped Jordyn with what?" Ricky asked.
"No one said anything.
"Nothing." Perrie said, sounding tense.
"No, I know. But did you." Kian said.
"Of course I knew!" Perrie burst out. I could almost see her flailing her arms around.
"Perrie." Cameron hissed.
"Sorry." She whispered. "But how did you find out?"
"She told me." Cameron said after a long pause.
It finally clicked in my head what they were talking about.
About...Jordyn.
She told me.
Perrie helped her.
Cameron told Kian!
I groaned and turned over, wanting to get up and confront him, but feeling like crap and not able to open my eyes.
"Shhh." Perrie said.
Ricky pulled my closer and kept smoothing my hair out.
"What are you talking about?" Ricky whispered after I didn't move for a couple minutes.
It was silent for a long time.
And whether they told Ricky or not, I wouldn't have known, because I finally fell into a deep sleep.

Summoned
“Per aspera ad astra." Death. Mercilessly, it comes for all. But when a young man is given a second chance – a second life – to experience what he never has, what will he do? Leave the burdens of his past behind, improving upon his faults? Or will he collapse back into old sins, wasting the opportunity given to him? Perhaps even he himself does not know. * Join Andre on his journey as he explores a new world – one ripped straight from the pages of a D&D campaign he's never played. He will face monsters. He will face men. And above all, he will face himself. The story’s genre is your standard progression fantasy, isekai: magic, a system, and a level of technology suspiciously underdeveloped. I’ve borrowed tropes from various books I’ve read like “The Second Coming of Gluttony”. The similarities are there (particularly in the beginning), but I assure you the story is my own. It’s in the first-person perspective and has its own quirks, characters, and world for you to become immersed in. The upload schedule for this will be different from the usual fictions on this site: I’ll release chapters in batches rather than so many a week. I’m a college student, so I don’t want another deadline to worry about. Depending on the popularity/demand of the series, I might increase or decrease the rate of releases. Other than that, I hope you enjoy the story! P.S. This is my first fiction so make sure to point out mistakes wherever you see them. I’m doing this, partly, to increase my skill as a writer. However, be kind! I’m fragile, you know? Warning: ***This is far from your happy-go-lucky, feel-good adventure story. There will be content that some of you might not be comfortable with. And if you're already feeling skeptical reading this, click away and don't come back. If you're still here, what are you waiting for?***

The Anthology
This is my collection of short stories. I ask what stories would my audience like to read and write whatever they post in the comments. I strive for more than two dimensional characters and I like to make my stories somewhat unique. The first six entries are my experiment to just write without stopping and see what comes out. They can serve as an introduction for the reader to me as a thinker and writer. Although it should be known that the majority of those entries were written in a foggy state of mind. Entry seven is where my short stories begin.

It's not Red Line's only problem... Someone is hunting the Talented and killing them, and time is running out before they strike again.
