《Where Did The Little Rock-Star Go? (GXG)》Chapter 2
Advertisement
(Devon's POV)
I sit in my apartment on the couch, doing nothing. I have the urge to smoke and drink. I'm actually shaking right now.
I reach for my phone, grabbing it off the coffee table. I hurriedly scroll through the contacts. I press call.
"Yello? Taylor Swift speaking!" Taylor's voice answers on the 3rd ring.
"T-Tay. I need. I need help." I say, my voice shaking.
I hear rustling on the other side of the line.
"I'm coming. Don't do anything stupid." Taylor tells me-knowing why I called her. I always call Taylor when I feel the urge to smoke or drink. She's practically my mother or something.
"J-just hurry." I mumble, hanging the phone up.
You may think I'm overreacting, but you try going on a tour with your ex-girlfriend and ex-bandmates. Especially when you just got over it after 3 years.
My door busts open and Taylor comes running in. She spots me on the touch and sits down next to me. She brings me into a hug.
"What happened?" Taylor asks me. I take a deep breath before responding.
"I-I went t-to the meeting today a-and," I take a deep breath. "A-and they we're there. I-I ha-ave t-to go on tour with them."
Taylor's grip on my tightens as she holds me. She knows who I'm talking about too.
"I-I saw her. S-she looked s-so beautiful, Tay." I mumble into her t-shirt. My eyes start to get heavy.
"Go to sleep..sh. I'll be here.." Taylor rubs my back. I go limp as I let sleep takeover me.
~~~
I wake up with arms still around me. I look up and squint, to see Taylor asleep. I smile and carefully get up.
I look at the time. 2:34.

I sigh as I walk into the kitchen, remembering the tour that I have to go on.
I grab an apple and lift myself up on the counter. I grab my phone, logging onto Twitter.
@DevonSwift: I don't know if I should be excited for this tour or not..
The fans know that I'm going on Twitter, they just don't know who I'm doing it with. After I tweet that, someone else tweets- someone from the band.
@SkylarProposalTillTwelve: @DevonSwift Me either.
And now the fans know. Woot woot!
I sigh as I finish my apple. As I'm throwing it away, Taylor comes into my kitchen, yawning.
"You feel better now?" Taylor asks, sitting down at my table.
"I guess," I say. "I don't know how I'm going to cope with this."
"You'll get through it. And if you need anything, don't be afraid to call, alright?" Taylor tells me.
"Yeah yeah, now go back to your boyfriend." I tease her.
Taylor rolls her eyes and hugs me.
"Oh, and if he breaks your heart, don't be afraid to call me before you write a song about him." I wink at her. Taylor laughs to herself and throws a pillow at me. I catch it as she walks out, shutting the door behind her.
Taylor is now my best friend- more like sister. It all works out too! Same last name and shit! Totally awesome. But we're not biological sisters- sadly.
I go to the living room and sit down. I turn on the TV, turning it to E! News.
"Breaking News: Devon Swift is going on tour with her ex-band mates and ex-girlfriend! How will this turn out? Especially since Alex and Jamie are still dating! Who is cuter together, Delex or Amie? Go to our website and vote!"

I laugh to myself as I go to their website.
Is this cheating? No, no it is not. I totally ship Delex. 100%. Amie can go kiss my ass.
I press the Delex button. So far, the votes are; Delex- 35% and Amie-20%.
Woohoo! Delex for the win.
But for real, what kind of ship name is Amie? Isn't that like..a real name? It has no creativity to it.
I can get through this tour, I will get through this tour. I'm just going to be myself, no strings attached. I'll be my cocky self, my charming, cocky, self.
And why not make the best of this tour? Let's look on the bright side, I get to see Skylar and the band again! I mean, sure I still have feelings for Alex. But I'll get over it, right?
"OPEN UP!" Someone pounds on my door.
I jump up and open my door.
"Hello to you too, Kylie." I sarcastically say as Kylie pushes past me. Yes- Kylie Jenner.
And yes, I know the fucking Kardashians and Jenners
"Hi! I need food!" She mumbles as she searches through my fridge.
This is completely normal, by the way. She finds a bag of chips in my pantry. I lift myself up on the counter as I watch her eat.
"Why are you here?" I ask her, swinging my feet back in forth.
"I saw the news," Kylie says with a mouthful of food. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I had a little break down, but Taylor helped me. I'm alright now." I respond, taking some of her chips.
"Hey! Those are mine!" She pouts.
"I bought them." I remind her, eating them.
"Kim was annoying me earlier today. She wouldn't stop talking about North. I mean, I love the child but oh my god." Kylie complains.
"I'm surprise there aren't any camera's here yet." I let out a laugh. Just then, camera's burst through my door. "I spoke to soon!"
"So you sure you'll be fine about the tour?" Kylie asks once again, eating her chips.
"Yeah, I'll be okay. But how can you fucking live with camera's following you around?" I ask, not caring if the camera's get this.
"You get used to it," Kylie sighs. "And by the way, I totally ship Delex."
I let out a small laugh as I hop off of the counter. I grab a bottle of water off of the fridge.
"Imagine me having my own TV show. Keeping Up With The Swifts. It'll be Taylor Swift and me." I joke.
"I could totally see it. Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris on camera. And then you and..your food on camera!" Kylie sticks her tongue out at me.
"Stop, I know I'm single but just-stop." I roll my eyes.
Kylie's phone starts ringing.
"Gotta' go. Kendall needs me." Kylie says as she hugs me.
"Buh-bye!" I shout as she walks out of the door, the camera's following behind her.
"How the hell does that girl do it?" I mumble to myself, talking about the camera's.

this chapter was just a filler I guess.

Delve
Summary – Level 1: Delve is an isekai litrpg that follows an average guy who just happened to wake up in a forest one day. He wasn’t summoned to defeat the demon lord or to save the world or anything like that, at least as far as he can tell. The only creature there to greet him was a regular old squirrel. Soon enough, he meets other people, only to discover that he can’t speak the language, and that not everybody immediately trusts random pajama-wearing strangers they met in the middle of the wilderness. Things generally go downhill from there, at least until the blue boxes start appearing. Delve is a story about finding your way in a new, strange, and dangerous world. It’s about avoiding death, figuring out what the heck is going on, and trying to make some friends along the way. It’s not about getting home, so much as finding a new one. Did I mention that there will be math? Summary – Level 2: Okay, but what are you in for, really? Well, this story is supposed to be realistic, or at least, as realistic as a fantasy litrpg can be. The main character doesn’t instantly become an all-powerful god and murder-hobo his way across the universe. Delve is, at its heart, a progression fantasy, but that progression is meant to feel earned. The numbers in this story actually mean something. Everything is calculated, and if you find a rounding error, I expect you to tell me about it. That said, if math isn’t your cup of tea, there is plenty more that the story has to offer. Characters are meant to feel real, and progression isn’t only about personal power; it’s also about allies, connections, and above all, knowledge. Figuring out how the system works is a significant theme. ... What, you want more details? Okay, fine, but this is going to get a bit spoiler-y. Are you sure? Yes! Really sure? I mean, this summary is practically half as long as the first chap– Now! Okay, okay! The main character becomes a magic user, but he takes a route that is not very popular in adventurer culture, namely that of a support. There is a full magic system with various spells, skills, and abilities, but our MC decides that aura magic is the way to go, and that the only stat worth investing in is mana regeneration. Most people at the Adventurer’s Guild think that this makes him a bit of a dumbass, but he’s playing the long game. We’ll see how that works out for him, won’t we? Because of his build, the MC levels up fast, at least compared to normal people. There are no cheats, though, and he is limited in other ways. There are some clear and pretty obvious downsides to his build. That’s what makes it fun, no? Morals? Our MC has them. Again, we’ll see how that works out for him. Realism, remember? Would you be okay with killing someone and looting their body? I sure hope not. POV? The focus is on the main character, but there will be occasional varying perspectives from people around him, or involved in the events related to the main plot. It isn’t going to jump all over the place. Tech is standard medieval stasis. No smartphones, but the MC does have a technical background. Computers and their programming might be involved. There might even be a bit of uplifting down the road, who knows? Anyway, it isn’t the focus. He isn’t going to invent the gun in chapter 1 and change the face of warfare. Romance is not a major focus. Friendships are more the name of the game, though there will be some characters in romantic relationships. There is exploration, though not as much of the geographical nature as you might expect. It is more about exploration of the system and the culture. The pace is slow and detailed, sometimes verging on slice-of-life. The action is meant to be realistic and grounded in the numbers, and it is intended to have meaning beyond simply punching things until they stop moving. The general tone of the story is grey, and some parts can get quite dark. People die. Sometimes, people with names, but not anywhere near GoT level. There is plenty of light, too, though, to balance the darkness. The world is dangerous, but overcoming that danger is why we’re all here, isn’t it? Anyway, if you’ve made it this far through the summary, you clearly like words. I hope you enjoy the story! Cover by Miha Brumec Summary Updated: 2020-06-14

Now that I have my time back, It's just no longer fun to write this story. I won't remove any content for those still curious (a lot of my readers had told me I was doing a good job), but it's not likely I am going to add anything either. Thank you for the adventure that writing this story for you has become. I have read every comment and review and still come back to them. It has been wonderful to see all of you supporting me on this journey.

The Wild Touch
The world of Delmathar has many conflicts and plots that span over the whole world and even into the war torn oceans. That’s not even taking into account that the world is a candidate in the Realm wars… but that’s a story for another day. Instead we will follow the story of how a goddess’s botched attempt of using a weak earth soul to make powerful Grafter for her mother, ends up empowering an unsuspecting little boy. The boy who is called Nosal Brownwhisker, who happens to be a peaceful little buttonless-shirt loving little Capyban. And as the Brownwhisker family tries to juggle their everyday lives on their monster ranch and hiding little Nosal’s secret, more and more developments keep popping up in the village of Pancreedy that makes life more.. interesting. Author’s notes:This is my first fiction and I understand it will suck. Hopefully you will find it to be enjoyable enough to hang around. There’s not going to be any epic world-ending fights or any stuff like that, just some shenanigans generally with the story progressing very slowly as it changes from many viewpoints. The world of Delmathar may seem funky for now so I will promise a glossary every 15 chapters. The wild touch will be updated at least twice a week, with me having no backlog of chapters. So if I get mobbed at work or get sick I will let you know in my notes on a short chapter. I hope you enjoy, and thank you for the people who support me, give me encouragement and pointers.
