《Trust Me》Chapter 8.
Advertisement
Today I woke up from the nightmares as usual. It was still 4 am so I had some time to take a walk.
It was still dark outside, but I always found an odd peacefulness in the dark.
The slight breeze hit me as soon as I exited my trailer so I zipped my jacket and put my hands in my pockets and I decided to roam in the dark roads of Hungary.
I decided to get back as soon as I saw the sun rising. It was 6 o'clock so I needed to start getting ready.
As soon as I walked into the parking lot I heard a bark. I furrowed my brows in confusion as I didn't know we had a dog. I decided to follow the way the bark came from, and then I see this black and white American Akita, he was so fluffy and big that he looked like a bear. I got closer to him and let him sniff me and then he started licking me which made me laugh.
"Hello beautiful, who are you ?" I say to the dog in a puppy voice while getting down to his level and patting his head. He replied by licking me again.
"Kal" I hear someone shouting. The dog stopped licking me and turned back to face his owner, as did I.
His owner was no one else but Henry.
He let out a breath of relief as soon as he saw the dog.
"Seems he already found my replacement" he sighed jokingly as he petted him.
I chuckled and stood up to face him.
"What can I say? Dogs love me" I exclaimed proudly of myself.
"I can tell why" Henry replied with a wide grin.
He caught me off guard, I really didn't know what to reply to this, so I just smiled instead.

"So is Kal his name then? Like Kal-El? I ask him remembering that it was superman's name back in Krypton.
"Yeah, exactly. So you've watched man of steel ?" He was now paying full attention to me.
"Unfortunately" I said almost under my breath and looking a down hoping he didn't hear.
But he did.
"Unfortunately?" He was furrowing his brows in confusion.
"All I'm saying is that Tony would be a better name" I folded my arms as I chuckled.
"Tony? As in Tony Stark ?" He raised an eyebrow getting my hint easily.
I nodded in agreement.
"So you're a Marvel fan, my mortal enemy" he put his hands in his waist.
"I'm not an enemy if there's nothing to compete with to start with" I paused for a minute "cause nothing compares to Marvel's greatness" I continued, enjoying myself.
"Ohh, we're so having this conversation after filming is done" he was pointing his finger in my face jokingly.
"Its on" I say mimicking his movements.
He walked me to my trailer to get my camera and then we silently walked to the studio where we waved goodbye for now.
Since I couldn't see Freya nor Anya on the set I decided to put my earphones on and get to work as usual.
I was lost deep in the music when someone tapped on my shoulder almost scaring me.
I turn around and I gasped. I saw a hunchback girl with raven hair reaching barely her shoulders, a kind of deformed face, and purple contacts.
She started laughing. "It's Anya you dick", she couldn't stop laughing.
I rolled my eyes at her "I was deep in the zone, you scared me you dick" I tried to mimic her tone. And then we just burst out laughing.
I was the one to first stop laughing. "Wait, I thought you started shooting tomorrow?" I asked as I remembered the talk we had yesterday.

She nodded her head in agreement "I do, but we had to practice the makeup before my big debut I also really wanted to scare you " she was still laughing. I rolled my eyes and laughed at her.
"Okay, I'm going to take this all off and come back to keep you company, deal ?"
I just nodded my head in agreement.
This time I took my earphones off in case Anya wanted to scare me again, and got back to work. They were shooting the fighting scene between Geralt and Renfri, which took quite some time as They had to switch back and front from the stunt double to the actress.
I could hear Anya behind me huffing in displeasure.
She comes next to me "ughh Lucy, I really hope she fucks off after this" she sounded frustrated.
"Why do you hate her so much? She seems alright, she is focused on work and Henry seems to be in good terms with her" I looked at Anya clearly confused.
"No" she cut me off "You're focused at work and you're not a selfish prick, you didn't come in and start complaining about everything. And about the Henry thing, I don't know, I feel something fishy going on there . " she huffed again as she glared at Lucy.
I furrowed my brows in confusion letting her know that I didn't understand what she said. She got my hint "all I'm saying is that I don't think Henry really wanted her here, but he has to accept her and work with her because he is a true professional" was all she replied to me.
I took her words into consideration as I saw Henry on set starring back at me with pain in his eyes.

Lost in Love
My name is Alexander Halesworth, sole heir to a prestigious ducal house. Or rather, that’s what my identity is supposed to be now. I still haven’t gotten used to this whole situation yet. Not long ago I was just a humble store clerk. But shortly after getting into an unfortunate road accident, I woke up in the setting of an infamous Otome Game called “Lost in Love: A Heart Throbbing Romance in a Fantasy World~!” Yeah. It’s even trashier than it sounds. Don’t judge me, it was a gift from a friend. *cough* Anyway, this situation wouldn’t be too bad, except I ended up in the body of the worst possible person: the villainess’ older brother. Alexander has great looks, near limitless wealth, and a thoroughly rotten personality. In most of the game’s endings I end up dead or exiled. My family also falls to ruin, and don’t even get me started on what happens to my evil little sister. Well, whatever. If that’s the hand fate dealt me, then I just have to prevent the bad ends, right? And if I have no choice but to deal with this family’s baggage, I may as well enjoy myself while I’m at it. Being filthy rich and powerful has its benefits. For example, this cute maid who I get to tease whenever I want. (Male lead otome reincarnation, inspired by Akuyaku Reijo Ni Koi Wo Shite and similar works)

8 364The Ultimate Supporter
Mona stood there, her body has stopped shaking as she stared at Sarah with no expression. “... do I have to set a goal?” Mona asked quietly. “Yes, if you do not then you will not be allowed to play Road Builder.” “...why? Why do we have to set a goal?” “This game is about inspiring people to work hard towards something that they wish to achieve. Don’t you have something you wish to achieve too ma’am?” “... I… do.” “What is your goal then ma’am?” “My goal… my goal is to become the ultimate supporter.” Feelings rushed back into Mona’s eyes as she clenched both her fists hard. “I want to help others succeed. I don’t need to be the main character. I want other people to be the main character.” Mona yelled as tears began to stream down her face. “I just… I just want to feel needed again.” Mona sniffled. Sarah looked at her with a soft expression on her face. “Is ‘I want to become the ultimate supporter’ your final choice?” Sarah asked. Mona bit on her lip as tears continued to stream down her face. She slowly nodded her head. “Alright then… this goal has been registered onto your avatar. You will soon spawn into a town and began your journey.” Sarah smiled, her eyes illuminating warmth to Mona. Mona nodded her head understanding as she wiped away the tears. A blue circle appeared around her as numbers counting down from ten appeared in front of her. 10… 9… 8… “By the way ma’am.” Sarah said. 7… 6… “Yes?” 5… 4… “I am sure you will achieve that goal, and to guarantee that, I give you my blessings.” 3… “What?” 2… “Enjoy your time in Road Builder.” 1… ********* Please point out if you notice any mistakes so that I can fix it. Also, because I re-edit this a lot so the chapters are going to come out very slowly(and because the blue tables take a while to do). Any comments and reviews are welcomed and are appreciated! Thanks for reading!

8 107Captain Critiques: A Grumpy Pirate Review Book
(CURRENTLY OPEN)When it comes to reviews, I'm probably as harsh as the hellhole most story ideas crawl out of. I'm blunt, sarcasic, to the point and I know what I like in a story. As you can probably guess, you don't wanna take my advice if your like an overprotective mother about your story. Who am I kidding, EVERYONE is like that about their stories.But, if you could find the courage to pry the story out of your cold, crabby hands so I can give my brutally honest opinion then be my guest. Just don't try and start a fight once I provide it. You DON'T wanna fight a pirate. .................................. I reserve the right to decline stories as this will be taking up quite a bit of my time and if I say no, I mean NO. If your blurb is unreadable I will decline it. If it includes the genres mentioned in my 'Hell No' section then I will send it back where it came from.Do NOT critique the Captain.
