《Senior Year》The Perfect Gifts
Advertisement
As the weekend went on, you started to think of what your friends, teachers, and the cast wants for Christmas. You already know what you're gonna get Kendra, Gwen, and Emily. Next week, you're going to a craft show to look for more present ideas.
You decided to look back at the pictures from the summer. Maybe looking back will give you some ideas. Within a few minutes, you got texts from Dexter and Will, saying that they got casted in new projects.
Dexter is in the musical, Witness Uganda. He told you about that when you all gathered for the premiere. Will got casted in a movie called, Detroit. You were happy for them. You can't believe that one of the Maze Runner actors is actually gonna be onstage, instead of onscreen.
As you were looking through the pictures, you thought of a gift idea for Thomas. You're gonna make a photo album on Snapfish. Your cousins have made photo albums on Snapfish before and the finished product always turns out good.
You got another idea! You gonna print a copy of the two-by-two photo booth pictures and put the original in the back of the album. You got out your laptop to start on this amazing present. Tears developed in your eyes as you were putting this present together.
When you finished, you went through to check if it's perfect. You saved the album as a draft, so that you can order it later. You went on Google to look up presents for the rest of the cast. You planned that you're gonna get the same thing for the boys and the girls to save money. You're getting the girls Yankee Candles and you're getting the boys personalized ornaments.
Everything is falling into place.
Thomas's POV
I've been working on my gift ideas for about two days now. Since that y/n's gift will take the longest to put together, I'm saving that for last and getting my other gifts out of the way. I clicked the order button on Amazon. I let out a sigh of relief. I hated buying in bulk, but it's done.

Now, I can focus on y/n's gift. I'm making her a CD that has all of our favorite songs, an original song, and I'm gonna record her favorite song. I know that she's gonna love it. Along with the CD, I'm giving her one of my old sweatshirts that's scented with my cologne. I put a blank CD disk into my laptop. I went to iTunes and downloaded our songs.
-Closer by the Chainsmokers
-Rewrite the Stars from the Greatest Showman
-Cool Thing by Rascal Flatts
-What Ifs by Kane Brown
-Worldwide by Big Time Rush
-A Thousand Years by Christina Perri
Once those songs downloaded, I put them on the CD disk. I went on YouTube to look up the lyrics and guitar chords to y/n's favorite song.
[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]
I saved the song and the guitar chords sheet to a file on my laptop, so that I can practice it later. I closed out of the file, then opened a blank document. I started to type up the lyrics to my original song. I was on a roll until my mother interrupted me.
"You've been in here all day. What have you been doing?" she asked me.
"Sorry, Mum. I'm working on my Christmas gifts for y/n." I explained.

Bitter
The story of a girl who finds her life is not what she wanted. So she gets another one. Schedule: Story has been completed. Book One is available free on Amazon and EPUB. Books Two to Five are out now. Final Book out soon. Chapters will be around 500-1000 words. This will not change so if you don't like reading very short chapters wait till the end of the week or even end of the month. This many chapters a week isn't easy to pull off so please bear that in mind. This is a VRMMORPG story, but the ones I've read tend to use VR as an excuse to get into a fantasy world and then don't really play up the game aspect other than pulling up a status screen every now and then. To me, MMOs are about more than the fantasy setting. Bugs, exploits, devs who don't understand their own game, OP classes, over the top nerfs, p2w, ridiculous RNG, cash shop fiasco, lockboxes, raging players, broken mechanics, limited bag space, tedious crafting and above all that, a company trying to squeeze money out if its playerbase while pretending they're just in the business of having fun. Of course, then there's the orcs and elves. This story is about finding yourself in a completely immersive fantasy game, but it's also about what a game like that would really be like.

Sufficiently Advanced
A Novella about magic vs aliens vs science. It's a raucous, campy sci-fi read involving humans gaining magic, a possibly pizza-hating alien empire, the decapitation of the US Federal Government, eldritch abominations, lesbian space witches and some medium-hard science.I wouldn't say it's not serious, but I wouldn't say it's serious. Eh, it's not serious. Wait... it's getting serious.

Their Wife
Nea Riar, a human, accidentally stumbles upon a portal to another world full of everything she has thought to be a myth. There she meets five men; Fae, Demon, Shifter, Warlock, and Incubus. What these five men have in common is that they are each seen as a threat in a society ruled by matriarchy. In the world of Asorix, Arradona is a Queendom where women are superior. Most are physically closer to the size men, the difference in high not as great, and their magical capabilities are naturally stronger from birth. They dominate and tame men, claiming those they see fit as husbands to add to their growing harems. Those of the upper class compete with one another by comparing the number of husbands they have in their harems, ranging anywhere from the tens to the hundreds, and even a rare few in the thousands.In these lands, five men; Zev Dubois, Cassius Montgomery, Jaxon Novak, Ezra Larsen, and Axel Dimitrov are anomalies. They're stronger than any male that has existed, physically and in terms of magical capabilities. The extent of their power is unknown, but it's speculated that they are more powerful than women also. Their power and wealth has earned them a high status without having to marry a wife to gain it, something that was impossible before them. They are seen as a threat by the Council.In an attempt to control them, the Council orders that they must each take a wife in hopes that she can tame these men who show signs of being dominant. The women of Asorix stumble over one another trying to take at least one of the five as a husband for their harem because of their looks, money, and status in society that would all become their own.During this time the five men come across Damanea, a woman who isn't like the rest. She's the opposite of what women in their world are like. Instead of being dominant, assertive, and abusive, she's meek, cautious, and weak. So what do they do?They marry her.WARNING: Slow burn dark romance
