《Trust Me》Chapter 26

His voice gentle but concerned. I moved my hands away from him as I started rubbing my eyes.
"Mh-hmm" I murmured to him as I rested my elbows on the mattress.
"I got up to pee and I heard you having a nightmare, so I decided to come comfort you" I admitted shortly after.
Henry let out a small chuckle as he started rubbing the back of his neck "I have nightmares sometimes, but it's nothing you should worry about" he mimicked my position and rested his elbows inn the mattress facing me.
"But I did like waking up cuddled next to you" his voice gentle but also hiding shyness.
My mouth went dry after his comment, I did like being cuddled up with him, but I couldn't go through all that pain again.
I've been trying so hard to keep away from all of this and then Henry just storms into my life and messes everything I've been working so hard for.
I try to shake the feeling off as I rest my back on the headboard and crossing my arms beneath my chest.
"Don't get used to it" I uttered to him after a while, a small chuckle escaping my mouth.
"Bummer" he replied to me with puppy eyes.
I couldn't help but smile at the sight.
Kal then started jumping on the bed and trying to get our attention.
I swear this bear needs attention 24/7. Henry laughed at the sight of him and started rubbing him behind his ears and the fluffy bear started calming down.
I really wanted to find out what Henry dreamt last night so I decided to ask him.
"So, what was your nightmare about? You can talk to me about it. But If you don't want to tell me that's fine as well. Just know that I'm here whatever you need" I muttered to him. My caring side started to emerge again after years of hiding it.

"Promise you won't make fun of me?" He chuckled, still petting Kal.
I stick my pinky finger up in the air and smile at him "I promise".
He stopped petting the black and white bear as he let out a big sigh and rested his back on the headboard next to me.
"Remember when I told you I was getting bullied in school?" He asked me after a while.
I nodded my head in agreement and ushered him to continue.
"So I was sent away on boarding school when this happened, so I was away from everyone I loved. I was all alone. And I guess that has caused me some abandonment issues. I don't always have these nightmares, usually, I'm too tired to even remember what I was dreaming, but when I do I just keep seeing that I'm all alone, and everyone has abandoned me and they don't really care about me but my fame." He admitted to me, with his head hanging low and fidgeting with his fingers.
A familiar feeling hit my gut as I remembered that this is how I felt when I left Greece.
I entwined my hand with his giving him a small reassuring squeeze.
"You're not alone, you have me" I admit to him with a gentle tone. "Plus I hated your superman so I'm definitely not using you for fame." I continued jokingly, trying to lift the mood.
"You nob" he chuckled and then started tickling me. His fingers going from my sides to my underarms, to my feet.
"Please, not the feet" I manage to beg him trying to catch my breath.
"Apologise and I'll stop" he admitted as he positioned himself on top of me not giving me a chance to escape.
"Never" I half yelled at him while I playfully punched his chest.

He raised his brows giving me a mischievous grin and he started tickling my feet. I started kicking my feet in the air begging him to stop.
"Please stop, or I won't be responsible for your injuries" I admitted as I was still laughing.
He laughed at my remark and came on top of me tickling my sides again. "Apologise" he stated, his tone serious as he moved closer to me gazing at my lips.
"Okay, okay I apologize, now get off me you oaf" I uttered to him while I playfully pushed him aside.
I jumped off the bed and as soon as I saw that we had enough distance I gave him a mischievous grin. "I'm not sorry actually" my voice gentle but sarcastic.
He lift his brows at me and started chasing me. So I started running away from him. I was in the living room when I heard him yelling after me "come here, you little Fox".
I laughed and replied to him "You're too slow Cavill".
I kept running until I reached his small back garden and I realized I had no escape.
Fuck.
Shortly after I heard him running up behind me and I got to the end of the backyard with my back facing the fence.
Henry had a mischievous smile on his face "You can't get away you little red".
"You bet ?" I raise my brows at him, challenging him.
I started running towards him with the hope of going fast enough around him so he wouldn't be able to catch me.
But I was not fast enough. I felt his huge arms around my waist, harsh but gentle at the same time as he spun me around to face him.
Our faces inches apart as we were both panting from running.
We just kept staring at each other when he cupped the side of my face and started moving closer to me.
And then his phone rang.

8 188Dark Lands: The Exile and the Prince
A short time has passed since the siege on Ruined Home has been lifted and as the survivors of the battered encampment slowly begin to rebuild their new home, Aurelius has returned from a failed troll hunt. Yet despite the battered prince’s failures, he has set into motion a series of events that will forever change his life. Meanwhile, Iskra has found herself at the helm of a far more favorable position and begins to forge a path that will lead her towards the first steps of a long road of revenge. Author’s Note: This is the direct sequel to the first Dark Lands story and as time goes on I will update the synopsis to help bring further detail about the story. For now however, I hope you all enjoy what is about to be written. Eight Years Arc: Eight Years have passed since Aurelius and Iskra have first met one another, and a lot has changed since then. The vast majority of Aurelius’ family has been slaughtered by the hands of none other than his oldest brother, a man that the golden haired prince had spent the past several years to hunt down and kill all in the name of vengeance. Upon his return, the kin-slaying prince has found that some things have changed during his absence. Iskra, his first wife and love of his life, has proclaimed that she no longer cares about the events that have been unfolding in her former homeland for the last several years and states that she is solely focused on raising her children. Yet it is through learning that the High Elves have taken a keen interest in the once magically-absent lands of Ranislava that Aurelius decides that action must be taken and thus he journeys south to learn more about what his distant kin are up to in such a backwater region of the world. Who he will meet and what he will do will turn the tides of fate, but in whose favor is something that only the Gods will know. (The Eight Years arc is something that was designed to be written in a way where people don't have to feel the need to go back to the very beginning of the Dark Lands story in order to know what is going on or who the characters are.)
8 176Rebirth of Destiny I
In a world where magical runes called Rebirths rest in the hands of hostile nations, fourteen-year-old Aiden lived a quiet life in a small town conveniently named Khalm. Born with crescent-shaped irises and silver hair, young Aiden was never bothered by his unusual birthmarks until the night his life as a simple delivery boy changed. He was the 'Rebirth Destroyer', someone ruling powers deemed a threat. Chased by death and the foretelling of the world ending by his hands, Aiden soon finds that there are few people he can trust. My stories are fantasy-based and heavily influenced by classic Final Fantasy games ( by classic I mean 1-10 ) and other Japanese Role-Playing Games I used to enjoy, with one difference; the main characters are Black. July 2022 update! After months of deliberation, I've decided to continue with this cast of characters in the next books instead. The loose ends in this story have been keeping me up all night. I've gotten started on 2 sequels to this; Rebirth of Destiny II based on the good ending and the alternative ending. After I get a good backlog built up they'll be published once a week.

Choice. An important thing is it not? We always make choices. Every day of every week of every month (of every year), we do “choices”. I want to show you how important it is and I would gladly welcome the attention. I heard somewhere that the best way to make someone understand is to just let them experience it, so, here’s your first choice. CHOICE 01 Would you play this game, or not? Take your time, I’m not waiting for the people who chooses the latter anyways.
