《Trust Me》Chapter 22.

I looked up to face him, not being able to contain the smile forming on my lips.
"You want me to help you decorate the house ?" I ask him in excitement.
He nodded his head in response smiling at me.
I jumped up and hugged him.
"Okay, so blankets and cushions are the first things to go here " I stated, but also seemed his approval as I pointed at the place in front of the window.
"Well it's your room so you can decorate it however you want " he crossed his arms as he gave me a weak smile.
My room?
Why would he give me a room?
And why am I excited about it?
"My room?" I murmured looking deep into his ocean eyes.
"That's only if you want " he tried to make up for what he said. He probably thought he was being too straight forward.
"You know I fell in love with this room as soon as we walked in right ?" I reply sarcastically raising my eyebrow at him, trying to make him shake off the feeling he probably had.
"Yeah, I could tell" he chuckled.
My stomach then rumbled, and I remembered I hadn't eaten anything today.
"You hungry ?" He couldn't contain his laughter.
I softly slapped his arm . " oh shush I haven't eaten anything today " I admitted.
His face then completely changed to that of concern.
"Why haven't you eaten anything ?" His voice stern as he narrowed his eyes.
I looked down rubbing the back of my neck "I just forgot ". I admitted as I slowly lifted my face to look at him.
I saw him typing something on his phone.
"What kind of pizza do you like ?". He stopped looking at his phone and starred back at me.

I gave him a stern look "You're not paying for it ".
"Just tell me what pizza you want woman " he chuckled.
"Pepperoni " I admitted in a defeated tone.
We were back in the living room when the door knocked. Henry went to answer it and then he came back with the pizzas.
I clapped my hands in excitement like a child and he laughed at the action.
He put the pizzas on the table and I put some music on my phone.
We sat down and started eating.
"Wait, isn't that cheating ?" I uttered with my mouth half full.
"What is ?" Henry was confused but he was still eating his chicken barbeque pizza.
"This " I point to him and his pizza chuckling. "Aren't you supposed to keep fit?"
He looked at me with a guilty look while eating his last slice "my trainer doesn't need to know, and I trust you not to tell him".
I couldn't help but laugh at his remark. "You put too much faith in me Cavill".
We finished our pizzas and we opened two bottles of beer. As I got more comfortable I put my legs on the sofa and I sat crossed legged.
"So you don't know where to spend your money So you spend it on houses ?" I proceeded to ask him in a joking tone.
"Is that bad? I think of it as having a home wherever I go " he admitted as he took another sip of his beer.
"So you're gonna buy yourself a house in Austria and in Spain when we get there ?" I gave him a sarcastic smile.
He tilted his head slightly to the right "probably " he answered chuckling.
After that, we just ended up discussing how he wanted his house to be decorated.

"So what about the master bedroom?" I ask him looking at furniture on my phone.
"What about it?" He seemed confused.
"How do you want it? Do you want it minimalistic? Do you want it comfy? Relaxed? Romantic? "
He seemed deep in thought.
"Guess I want it comfy and romantic " he answered me after a while, his eyes gazing at me.
"Aww, we have a romantic in the room" I chuckle as I give him the goo goo eyes.
He chuckled again and hid his face in his palms in embarrassment.
I moved closer to him and removed his hands from his face.
"I'm sorry, I was kidding " I was still chuckling.
He didn't answer me, just looked at me with a vicious smile and he then started to tickle me.
I couldn't breathe from the laughter, and I was begging him to stop.
He stopped and regained his serious composure. He rested his face on his hand. "That's what you get when you make fun of me " he managed to break a smile.
Which earned him a playful punch on the shoulder. "You're a dick" I exclaimed.
He chuckled.
But then his serious face came back "well that means that you aren't a romantic person then?"

The Realm Reborn: Small Closed Demo (LitRPG)
One of the world’s top competitive gamers, Theo Robinson, has been invited to demo The Realm Online, Radical Interactive’s second attempt to delve into the VRMMORPG industry.

A MOBA player, RPGs have never been his thing. The only reason he accepted the invitation was because of another secret project that Radical Interactive has been working on. Word has it they have been trapping people with brain injuries inside of The Realm Online. When Nancy Shelton, YouTube's most famous female Let's Player (and Theo's best friend online), got into a car accident and ended up in a coma, it was suspected that her consciousness had been ported into the game. Theo's quest isn't to demo The Realm Online but to try to find his friend. But will he even be able to look for her when the immersion is so intense that he forgets who he is?

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
