《Music System》Chapter 20
Advertisement
Saturn and Samantha were laying on the bed, Sam's head resting on Saturn's bicep. Sam had her finger circling on one of Saturn's abs while Saturn was staring off into space. The two would often lie together like that in comfortable silence, usually it was Sam who broke it.
" Hey babe, what are your dreams for the future? Your ambition's. "
" . . . . . I don't know. "
Sam looked up at her boyfriend who was staring at her with dark eyes. She instinctively giggled being stared at. Saturn also chuckled watching his silly girlfriend.
" You know that girls don't like a man without ambition. "
" Even when the man looks as good as me. "
Samantha slapped Saturn lightly on his stomach which made Saturn mock a hurt expression.
" You're such a dad joke. "
" I do love dad jokes. For example, what kind of apple grows on a tree? "
Sam thought about it before staring at Saturn again.
" I don't know which kind? "
" All of them. "
" God damn it. "
Samantha put her head under the blanket, she was embarrassed by her boyfriend and nobody else had even heard the joke. She didn't know what to do if he had said the joke in public.
" Anyway, let's see. When I was young I wanted to go to college on a piano scholarship, after that I wanted to become world famous and make tons of money. After I went to jail all I wanted to do was get out, now that I am out, I really don't know. I am living the dream, beautiful girl, great friends, I love my job and it pays great, and last but not least my mom is alive. I couldn't wish for anything better, and I doubt there is anything better. "
" Nothing? You don't want to have millions of fans or own a record label? You don't want to live in a mansion the size of a city block or anything? "
" Well if there was anything then it would be to live forever, but that's unlikely. "
" . . . . . Your only dream is to have a super power? Ugghhh I am dating a child who likes dad jokes. "
" You just admitted to having great sex with a child. Maybe I need to call the police . . . Anyway I'm going to work out, wanna join. "
" UUUUGGGGGHHHHHH! "
" I'll take that as a no. "
Sam who had once again covered her beautiful body under the blanket barely peeked her eyes out to stare at her boyfriend who was in the process of doing sit-ups.
" How have your work out vids been going? "
" Pretty . . . Good . . . A lot . . . Of support. It . . . Seems . . . That . . . A lot . . . Of my . . . Fans . . . Enjoy . . . Exercise. " ( Saturn was speaking every time he would go up, hence the gaps. )
" I personally really like them, my favorite part is showing them off to the girls. They're all really jealous. "
" Well . . . Look . . . At me. Perfect . . . Male . . . Specimen. "
" I won't disagree. "
After dating Samantha Saturn had long started to open up to her. By nature Saturn was actually quite a silly fellow and he loved feigning arrogance as a joke. Naturally though he would only act like that with the few people he was close with. Those few being Amelia, Dante, Luther, and of course Samantha. All four of them were extremely happy that Saturn had started to open up to them. Amelia especially was happy as she had felt that Saturn had kept some distance from her after he got out of prison.

About halfway done with his push-ups and completely done with his sit-ups Samantha finally got up. She wasn't wearing anything at all except for her socks which were green and purple. Saturn himself only wearing clothes because Samantha's snap & lock flooring was very cold. Sam quickly put on some dirty clothes that she had had on her clothes hamper.
" I'll go get us some breakfast, what do you want. "
" Chinese. "
" We can't eat Chinese for breakfast. . . . . I'll just get us a couple subs. "
" Want . . . Me . . . To . . . Go? "
" Naw, I'll be back. "
" Be . . . Careful. "
" I know, you remind me every time I leave. "
" I . . . Worry. "
Samantha smiled at her boyfriends worried face. He was very cute.
" Then use the energy from worrying and do more sets. "
" . . . Bye . . . "
After that Samantha in time with Saturn's push-up gave him a kiss on the cheek.
" See ya babe. "
Saturn didn't respond, instead he kept doing more push-ups, determined to do more than usual.
Saturn finished all of his push-ups by the time she got back. As opposed to the 200 he usually did Saturn did 230 push-ups. Truthfully he had surprised himself with such an increase and vowed to do at least 230 push-ups a day. After his push-ups Saturn moved onto squats of which he did his usual amount quickly. He would of tried more, but he wanted to eat with Sam who had waited for him to finish.
Right when he was about to sit down at the dining table Sam handed Saturn a sandwich. When he looked at his he was surprised. It was a vegetable sandwich. Saturn looked at Sam like a kid looks at his mom after she stuffed his plate with broccoli and brussel sprouts.
" HAHAHA! . . . . Alright, lose the puppy face, here. "
Sam then handed Saturn a meat ball sandwich. Saturn then acted like a kid who had his plate stuffed with Salisbury steak.
He started digging into the twelve inch sub. Saturn had long stopped trying to eat healthy. All of the working he did if added with a diet would actually be extremely unhealthy and could damage Saturn's body. While eating the two conversed.
" So what do you want to do today? "
" I'm thinking of recording a pop song. "
" . . . . You . . . A pop song? "
" Yeah. "
" Why? "
" Because I want to. "
" But I thought you didn't like pop music. "
" I don't like the stuff that is playing on the radio. I don't mind any particular genre of music. I could find plenty of songs in any type of genre that I like. "
" Then why the sudden want to do pop music? "
" I wanna put something new on the channel. I like diversity and I fell I have for the most part been doing the same sort of stuff. "
" Then why pop, why not rap? "
" Why are you so opposed to pop music? I thought you liked it. "
" I do, I just don't want you to do it. "
" Can I ask why? "
" Uh-uh. "
" ' Sigh ' Fine, then I'll try out something else new. I have had a few ideas for songs anyway. "

" Can I hear them? "
" Uh-uh. "
" Douche. "
" Haha, bitch. "
After that the two sent playful glares at each other.
After breakfast Saturn quickly went by his mom's house to grab clean clothes and his laptop. Amelia was at work so he couldn't talk to her unfortunately. After he locked the house back up he hopped in his Tahoe and drove to the mall. Once he went to the mall Saturn instinctively walked to Luther's store.
The old man could be seen talking with a few young chaps all of which were dressed in stylish clothes. It seemed the five were arguing. When he walked up Saturn heard them talking.
" Come one man, why can't we just use the booth it's open? "
" I'm telling you that it is already rented. If you want to use a booth you can wait until one is open or leave to find somewhere else. "
Saturn stepped in.
" Something wrong here Luther? "
Before the old man could speak one of the youngsters spoke.
" Yeah, this guy won't let us use the booth. "
" Is it my booth? "
" Yeah. "
" Thanks for holding it then. Next time though, don't worry about it. I don't want you to lose business. "
" You mean that you're the guy renting the booth? "
" Yeah, is that a problem. "
The young man who had been taking the lead looked at Saturn's shirt that showed off his muscles. He seemed slightly intimidated.
" Whatever, let's go guys. "
" Fine. "
" That's bull shit. "
" ' Sigh ' "
The last fellow didn't say anything. After they walked out of the store Saturn and Luther who had been watching them turned to each other.
" Like I said, in the future don't worry about holding a booth for me. "
" Saturn, you are basically letting me fulfill my dream of doing something in music. As far as I am concerned that booth is your booth. "
" At least let me pay rent. "
" Fine, one hundred a month. "
" That's it, come on Luther. "
" Save the rest of the money for taking your girl out on dates. That girl is a keeper and she deserves to be treated special. "
Saturn then gave the old man a firm shake on his hands. He was feeling emotions he hadn't in a very long time.
" Then let's get to recording shall we. "
" Can't wait. "
Once everything was ready Saturn spoke through the mike to Luther.
" Alright Luther, I am going to do something really odd, don't freak out. "
" . . . Allrrriiiiggggghhhhhhttttttt. "
Saturn then started singing in a girls voice. Luther paused for a second before widening his eyes towards Saturn. Saturn who felt his stare became uncomfortable stopped singing.
Saturn had discovered the ability of being able to replicate a girls voice only a few days before while playing around with his skills. Luther still slightly shocked just shook his head and gave the sign to continue. Saturn then sang out all of the lyrics.
After that Saturn still using the girls voice spoke out.
" Alright, I wanna change up the process now. "
" STOP! Use your normal voice. "
" HAHAHA! Alright, alright, chill. Like I said I want to do something different. So just download all that onto my laptop please. "
" Sure. "
After that Saturn walked out and sat at his chair.
" Alright watch this. I am going to use this new app that I found for a new-ish type of music. It is electronic music and it usually doesn't have any vocals. The genre of the song I am going to be making is called " chill ".
Saturn then started doing a whole bunch of different things to everything. ( Another way to tell that I know nothing about what I am talking about. Just imagine making beeps and boops for a couple of hours and out pops a song. )
The instant he finished the song Saturn logged onto his WeStream and started uploading the song. ( To check out the song and all the other songs mentioned through out the novel go to this playlist. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7_acUgMyEtVGHfIU5vKCH2dGXYFm-tIh )
" There we go. Want to join me for dinner, it's just me tonight. "
" Sure. "
After that Saturn and Luther went out and ate Italian. Saturn ate regular old spaghetti. Luther ate himself a supposedly genuine pizza, neither of them knew the difference though. After dinner Saturn picked up some tofu and a salad for Samantha and Amelia who were both at Amelia's house. Apparently the two had met up and went clothes shopping while Saturn was busy mixing his song. Amelia had bought a dress while Samantha had bought a pair of running shoes. Her's had long been needing replaced.
Saturn who had been holding two bags filled with food walked through the door and found Samantha glaring at him while his mom smirked at him. She apparently enjoyed Saturn's future discomfort. Right when he was about to speak Sam " spoke ".
" WHO IS SHE? "
" Who is who? "
" The bitch you had in your song. Who the hell is she? Do I know her? "
" Babe, I didn't have a girl in my new song. "
Saturn was very flustered hearing Sam's slight anger. Apparently she thought Saturn was hiding a girl from her.
" Bull! "
" I swear, mom explain please. "
" He's right, Saturn you show her. "
Saturn instantly spoke out in a girly voice. Which immediately calmed down his girlfriend.
" You're such a dummy. If I was going to cheat on you I wouldn't put the girl in one of my songs. Plus I wouldn't cheat, I would just straight up break up with you. "
Amelia hearing her son's words cringed her face and said. " OOO. "
Samantha who had calmed down instantly became mad with anger and started screaming. Least to say Saturn didn't sleep at Samantha's for a week after that.

A young woman gets thrown into this grimdark world from our own. Will she survive the curveball that gets thrown in her face as she changes into something else? Map created by Maximeplasse This fiction is based on my play-per-post RP that I've run before but with my own take on summoned characters and dungeon settings. At certain points I'll also allow reader decisions if the story gets popular enough. xD It's unrelated to the D&D Theron setting; Telduria I just liked the name and the map when I started up the RP back in the day.

Glitch — Alpha [Swedish] [Svenska]
Otilia jobbar på förskolan när ett barn försvinner rakt framför ögonen på henne. Sekunder efteråt kommer barnet tillbaka, som att inget hänt. Hon tror att hon är överarbetad, men när försvinnanden börjar hända överallt och de som kommer tillbaka inte är sig själva, förstår Otilia att något, någonstans gått riktigt snett. När hon och hennes pojkvän får en idé om vad som kan vara orsaken gör de allt för att informationen ska komma fram till rätt personer. Detta är en skräck/thriller som innehåller ganska mycket blod och våld. Även mot och med barn. Om detta stör dig råder jag att du håller dig borta. Detta är också den första boken jag någonsin skrev (2015, och knappt rörd sedan dess) och var ämnad att bli en trilogi. Eftersom den bara har legat och skräpat i hårddisken under alla dessa år tänkte jag att jag lika gärna kunde släppa den här. Trevlig läsning! ********* For English readers: (Might as well add this information in English to save the lovely souls looking through our works some time) I probably won't translate this work, but I'm working on another translation within YA, if that's something you'd be interested in. This one's horror/thriller, so.. yeah. Maybe sometime in the future. Otilia works at a daycare when a child disappears. Seconds later, the child reappears, like nothing had happened. She thinks she's worked too much, but when disappearences start to happen all around the globe, she and her boyfriend realize that something has gone really, really wrong. When they get an idea about what could be the cause, no matter how unbelievable, they will do everything in their power to get the information to the right people. This was my first-ever-novel and my first gamelit story (though I had no idea that was a thing/genre at the time). This novel contains a lot of violence and blood and can be uncomfortable to read for some people. There is also some violence from, and off-screen violence to, children.
