Hey!
So here it is.
Chapter 32 (lol) *shakes head* Enjoy!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Greg's POV
"I have to go. I'll see ya later." Nick went out the back door and I looked at Cassie who was digging into some brownies on the counter.
What was that all about? This is like the millionth time those two have been alone together and billionth time I caught them staring at eachother like that and I am really starting to feel left out on information.
Alison walked in the kitchen and smiled at Cassie then walked over to me.
"Can I talk to you for a minute? I need to tell you something that's really important and your cousin won't leave me alone." I looked at Cassie and nodded.
We went back to our usual spot in the laundry room.
"Now what. In the world. Was so important. That you had to drag me in a smelly laundry room." She sighed and sat on top of the washer.
"I saw her."
"Who exactly did you see?"
"The girl who was with Abe."
"When did you see her?"
"Just now." I groaned and rolled my eyes.
"You and metaphores. Talk."
"She's Ava." My eyes widened and I shook my head.
"No that's impossible. You have to be wrong."
"Greg I know what I saw. And her name was on Abe's phone that night. He texted her. I knew her name sounded familiar but I wasn't sure and when I saw her... Then I was."
"So your telling me. That my cousin. Is sleeping with my sister's boyfriend? That makes no-" The door opened and our heads turned.
Darci smiled and started laughing.
"Debauchery!" Alison started laughing along with her and I stared at them like they were crazy.
Alison got down and said.
"I'm going home. Tell Abby I said bye." I nodded and we both left the room.
"What are you doing here." She shrugged and said.
"I don't know. I talked to Nick and he said he was here so I thought I'd kick it with you guys. What are you doing in the laundry room with your sister's friend?"
"N-nothing." She stopped and stepped in front off me.

"Your lying."
"N-no I'm not." She smiled and said.
"Yes you are. Dude. Every time you lie you stutter. Now tell me." I narrowed my eyes at her and said.
"There's nothing to tell." She rolled her eyes at me and we went to the living room.
"Come on. Please. I won't tell Greg."
"No now go away." I looked at Taylor then at Abby. When did she come downstaires?
"Won't tell Greg what?" She shifted unconfortably and looked at Taylor. He smirked at her and said.
"Abby has a crush on Nick." She looked at me wide eyed and said.
"I don't. We established this already Greg. Remember?" I smiled at her and then looked at Taylor.
"Go away. Your such a trouble maker. Its a wonder how nobody has locked you up yet." He laughed and ran up staires. Probably to trash my room some more. I laughed at that thought and Cassie came in the room.
"You guys just have a habit of having fun without me don't you?" I smiled at her and Darci scoffed.
"Where is Nick? He said he was here."
"He left a few minutes ago your too late." Abby sprang up and said.
"You know. We don't need Nick. He's... You know... Home. With his sisters'. Maybe he's playing a friendly game of monopoly. Or or. Maybe he's playing dressup with Oceana. Ya never know. That's why we should just leave him where he is." She smiled at three of us and I felt her need to not be around Nick overly suspicious.
I narrowed my eyes at her and said.
"Abby. Why don't you. Go tell Mona to come over. I'm sure she'd love to have some girl time with you." Her eyes widened and I smiled.
"No. No. That's fine. I'm just gonna go upstaires and um. You can invite whoever you want okay? Okay." She smiled and went to her room.
I shook my head and looked at Cassie who was biting her lip. That's when I really knew something was up. Cassie doesn't do that unless she's...
I looked at Darci and then back at Cassie.
"Cassie?" She looked at me wide eyed and I almost smiled at how beautifly nervous she looked but I had to focus on the problem at hand.

"What's going on?" She shook her head and smiled.
"Nothing. Nothing's going on. What's going on with you?" Darci folded her arms and I narrowed my eyes at her.
"Babe. I know you. If something is going on you need to tell me." She bit her lip again and that's when I knew she was nervous.
"I-I... Don't know what you mean." Darci smiled and walked up to her.
"You know something. Don't you?" She shook her head and I nodded.
"You do. And your gonna tell me. Right now." She looked at me and then Darci and said.
"Okay. Okay. I know something. But you have to promise not to tell because Abby. She told me not to tell you or anyone else and you didn't hear it from me but..." She trailed off and looked at the floor.
"Nick and Abby kissed." Darci mouth flew open and I was in a state of shock.
"What? When did this happen? When did this have time to happen?"
"In New York."
"What? I cannot believe-" I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair. This is unbelievable. Completely outragous. What the hell?
"Why didn't you tell me this before?"
"I just found out." My jaws clenched and I was about to burst. How could she lie like that? How could he not tell me?
Cassie put her hand on my shoulder and said.
"You. Don't. Know."
"Well I do know okay? And this is..." I trailed off and started walking to her room.
"Greg? Where are you going?"
"Just go home."
I stormed upstaires and opened her door.
"We need to talk." She looked at me confused and I sat at her computer to desk.
"What's wrong?"
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I don't know what your talking about. Could you be more specific?"
"About you and Nick. You couldn't have just told me when I asked?" She stood up and scoffed.
"Greg. I told you the t-"
"You did not tell me the truth. You lied. You kissed him and he kissed you and neither of you told me."
"That's because its none of your business. What happened with us had nothing to do with you or anyone else." I stood up and said.
"It has everything to do with me."
"It has nothing to do with you."
"Your my sister and he's my friend and when I asked you. You said there was nothing."
"That's because its not!" We glared at eachother and I wanted to just kill myself. I never yell at my sister and every time I do I feel like crap.
"Who told you?"
"What?"
"Only two people knew about this. So who told you?" I can't tell on Cassie. She'd never forgive me. I'm not even supposed to know.
"Th-that's not important. The important thing is..." I sighed and sat back down. She sat down too.
"I'm sorry Greg. I guess I should have told you. But it doesn't matter because. He doesn't like me... I think." I looked at her and she looked at the floor.
I sighed and sat next to her.
"I'm sorry for yelling. I just... I wasn't expecting." I saw a tear fall and I was confused.
"Do you know how it feels to love someone. Who'd probably never love you back? I hate feeling like this. I just wish that I could stop it. But I can't. And every time I try to push them away. They just come right back and even stronger then before." She wiped a tear away and I hugged her.
"I don't know how that feels. But from the looks of it I don't really wanna know." She laughed a little and I smiled.
I wiped her face and poked her.
"Hey. Buck up. You'll be fine." She nodded.
"I should have told you and I didn't. That just proves that the truth can really blow up in your face." When she said that I started thinking about Abe and how I knew he cheated. I want to tell her so bad right now but I hate seeing her cry and she's all ready torn apart right now.
Instead of telling her I hugged her again.
"You'll be fine."

Rise of the Green
This is set three hundred years before my other fiction, Journal of an Adventurer. With the age of disbelief coming to a close, people shoved to the side and rejected from mainstream sociality came together to form an organisation. If they worked together, they would protect their way of life, which conflicts with their technological mindset. In Favinonia, a place of learning and advancement. Where the world’s new technologies are created and studied. University Engineers reworking various new designs of past do-dads and gismos to serve the need of the populous. In a world still filled with magic, the Favinonian people have turned away from magic to embrace this new reasoning. Deprived of faith, the populous was yes advance but lacked humanity and needed to move onto the next step, losing emotion and losing touch with the higher realm. These cause some to fall for other means, pursuing that need to fill with devil and demon cults. In the chaos and ignorance came a community of healers with ancient knowledge before the Massacre of Magic. These few will eventually found the church of the Trinity whose three aspects of Green, life and death with healing and agriculture, Orange, retribution and protection with the flame of passion and Blue, knowledge and law with the clarity of the mind.

Adventures of one dude with an afro
...East-Blue, West-Blue, South-Blue, and North-Blue are the four seas that constitute most of the whole planet. Humanity is thriving on the small patches of land which poke out of the four seas. These four seas are separated horizontally by a humongous mountain which encircles the whole planet, called Red Line, and vertically by, the most dangerous sea known to man, Grand-Line. Both sides of Grand-Line are flanked by strips of the windless sea called Calm Belt. The eternally windless strips of sea are impossible to cross with only wind-powered ships. It might be calm over the water, but the water hides nasty beings called sea kings, not to be disturbed as the name suggests. People in this world can train themselves past any and all physical limits, only their mentality is the problem. A strong mind makes the body strong. Everyone in this world possesses this almost magical power in them called haki. There are three types of haki, two available to everyone and the last one is seen only once in seven million people. Different haki can be used to strengthen the body to even affect logia users, to predict and to foresee attacks, sense others’ prowess and even exert your will upon others. Fruits of the sea devil. Otherwise know as devil fruits, give miraculous powers to those who eat them, but robs them of their power to swim and makes them vulnerable to anything from normal seawater to the crystallized power of the sea, sea stone. Devil fruit powers are categorized into three different categories: Zoan type fruits allow their users to transform into an animal of a sort and gain their abilities. There are also human and mythical type zoans so they should actually be called transformation powers but those ones are extremely rare to the point of none existent that most just associate zoan transformations into animals. Logia fruits make their eaters become the element that the fruit was. For example, the one who eats the fire logia fruit is able to use fire in their attacks, become fire to avoid physical attacks and much else. Last but not least are the Paramecia fruits, these fruits are undoubtedly the weirdest and most random of the bunch. There are some that let you attract metal, make you slim and slippery, make your body able to split your body into many pieces, makes your body rubber, lets you control vibrations, light, pressure almost anything you can imagine. Lastly, there are two opposing factions in this world. The marines and the pirates, most strong people are part of either one. Both have their ups and downs. Pirates are free people who do whatever they want. Good or Bad. Marines are the upholders of justice in this world yet no justice system is without corruption. I closed the introductory book while frowning. "Isn't this a summary to the one piece world...?" The cover isn't mine and I am willing to take it down.
