《Pinball Vance (Vance Hopper x Reader)》Part 21
Advertisement
The morning after Claire left as soon as we got breakfast. At about lunch I got some money out of my piggyback and went to the shop. When I got close enough I saw Vance on the pinball machine and I rolled my eyes. I walked in and went straight to the drinks.
I got a can of soda and then went to the sweet section. I picked out crisps (chips if ur american), a pack of flying saucers and some giant cola bottles. When I walked to the till (cash register) I saw Vance there too trading bills for quarters to play pinball. He glanced at me then looked at me properly, "Y/N," he said with a smile. I nodded "hi," I said.
"Why didn't you go to the park yesterday?" He asked and I started to feel bad. "I just had a gut feeling not to." I said and gave my drink and sweet to the woman working the till. She told me the total and I handed her the money I had brought and she gave me back my change. "Maybe we could go now?" He said and I glanced at him and sighed, "sure." I said.
We walked out of the store and went to the park. We sat on the swings and I shared the sweets I bought. "Why'd you do it?" I asked and he looked at me. "Do what?" He said.
"Do you seriously not remember?"
"What did I do?"
"Yesterday."
"Ohhhh sorry yeah. I kinda forgot because I was just thinking about why you didn't show up."
"Uh huh well now you remember so why'd you do it?"
He just shrugged. "I don't know its just how I act around those guys."

"Well then maybe you should stop talking to them, because you hurt me."
He sighed and our eyes met, "sorry its just how I am around them. Not saying its like an excuse but you can't really blame me." He said and I stared at him. "Anyway maybe we should go to your house or mine. Maybe watch a movie.."
"Are you fucking serious?" I said. He nodded "Yes I'm serious we should watch a movie the clouds are rolling in it might rain."
"You're such a dick.."
"Are we going to?" He asked and I didn't know what to say..

How the Stars Turned Red
Announcement as of 05 July 2022: I've been diagnosed with some pretty severe nerve damage in my left arm, rendering me unable to write effectively, and as such this story is on hold until it is healed. I am so sorry, and I promise to get back to writing as soon as possible. In the latter half of the 3rd millennium CE, humanity has spread across the stars, inhabiting close to five-hundred worlds across the Orion Arm. Earth has become irrelevant, a historical has-been. The galactic map is dominated by two mega-factions, both controlling vast amounts of territories either through direct control or through their many allies and treaty signatories. The Kingdom of Aurora is the political and economic hegemon despite consisting of only seven inhabited worlds; their strength lies in the Royal Union, an interstellar commonwealth composing an internal market and a common defence pact. These member worlds are myriad and varied, culturally as well as politically, but they all flock to the same banner. The Independent Systems Alliance, spearheaded by the Republic of Elysium, is the ascendant challenger to Aurora and the Union. A pseudo-federal multi-system polity, the Alliance economy and military is rapidly expanding, but at the cost of effective democratic and meritocratic involvement by its people. However, with two superpowers as this, chafing along a common border, and with a constant clamour of polemics, both sides have become convinced the other is constantly preparing for war and are on the look-out for any perceived weakness in their opponent. The predictable result is a huge arms race and a cold war spreading across the stars, requiring only a spark to set the galaxy aflame. Drawn into this game of high stakes are ordinary men and women, their peaceful lives, hopes, and aspirations swallowed by the vortex of conflict and distrust. This is their story. Cover art by Rhodex Designs (FB). Hope you like long chapters and adjectives. Note: English is not my first language. Another story set in the same universe, written by a good friend
