《Flatmates》22

Shit, my alarm. How is it already 5am? I turn it off, rolling onto my back and staring up at the ceiling. I was excited, I really was. But fuck me I was tired.
I throw back the duvet, pulling myself into a seated position before standing. I grab my phone and text Will, James, Ethan and Simon to make sure they are all awake before brushing my teeth and getting dressed. I slip down the hall and put my hairbrush and tooth brush in my case, before putting the kettle on and going to wake Alex and George. I decided to leave Harry till last.
'George' I whisper as I open his door. 'Come on, we gotta leave in half hour. Kettle is on.'
'Mmmhhh' he groans in response, throwing his duvet back and sitting up. 'It's too early' he moans.
I walk a little further down the hall and knock on Alex's door. 'Alex, time to get up' I whisper. As I open the door I see he is already sat on the bed dressed and ready to go. 'Jesus, you are already up!'
'Yeah, too excited' he giggles and he stands and walks towards his bathroom.
Finally I go to the living room where Harry is sound asleep. 'Harry, come on buddy you gotta get up. We gotta go soon. Kettle is on.'
'Jess. Do I have to' he whispers, pulling the blanket up over his head. 'It's too early.'
'I know it is, but just think of all the alcohol waiting for us in Spain' I giggle, tugging his blanket back down. 'Come on, I will make you a coffee.'
I go into the kitchen and pull out four mugs, making coffee's for us all. I find some croissants in the cupboard and bung them on the breakfast bar with the drinks. After about ten minutes all four of us are sat eating and drinking, the lads beginning to wake up a little.

'Uber is here guys, time to go' I call as I head towards the door to grab my suitcase. We all head out, locking the door behind us and piling into the elevator. It was holiday time.
***
We met the other lads at the airport, and after just a few short hours we touched down in sunny Spain. Once we had all collected our luggage, we piled into the minibus I had booked and were soon stood outside the magnificent Villa. It was even better than it looked in the pictures.
'So, there are 5 bedrooms, most of them are twin doubles. Some of us will have to share' I finally announce as we pile in through the massive doorway.
'I can share with George' Alex says looking at George for confirmation.
'Yeah that's cool with me' he replies.
'I don't mind sharing with someone?' Will pipes up.
'Yeah I will share with Will' James adds.
'I don't mind sharing' I say as we dump our suitcases in the hall and begin to explore. The Villa is incredible, better than anything I have ever stayed in before. Alex and George and Will and James head off to choose their rooms and dump their bags whilst everyone continues to explore.
'I don't mind sharing with you Jess, you did after all arrange this amazing holiday' Harry says quiet enough for the others not to hear.
'Go on then. Lets go choose our room' I say as I head back to the hall to grab my suitcase.
We wander all the way to the top floor where there is just one bedroom, and it is of course unclaimed. It has a massive ensuite and a balcony, and Harry and I instantly claim it. We quickly unpack everything into the wardrobes, before I disappear into the bathroom to change into a bikini. I am not wasting time getting in the pool!
By the time I reemerge, Harry is changed into his shorts and ready to go.

The Pugilist
Vincent Roy Salazar has never been your common folk. He climbed any mountain he found in front of him. From a bright young student to an accomplished professor, his life can be described as a continuous race to the top of his chosen fields. Patriarch of a loving family, proud father of three already grown siblings, Roy realizes that his life is the perfect picture of what the average man strives for, and for that he is truly grateful. But happiness is a difficult-to-reach goal, and as he lies in a pool of his own blood, his fist cracked, a young lady crying while cradling his head, he remembers what really gave sense to his youth. Pure Unadulterated Violence The Pugilist wants to be a different take on isekai shenanigans. What would happen if instead of a moronic idiot, a depressed high schooler, or a wannabe hero the one to get his do-over is a fully grown man that has already seen what life has to offer in full? Someone who conformed himself to society, but has always craved something different? In a journey of self-discovery, academy building, god-slaying, and absolutely no harem we follow someone driven by logic, experience, and a smokey goal: to fuck shit up, have fun while doing so, and maybe resume his career as a professor for those strange, magic-wielding, unstable youths that seems to never get enough of his presence. Guys, a few notes, first of all, this is my first time writing long-form fiction. I have a background in psychology, and my main income comes from writing dreary financial articles on SEO blogs. But after a bad break-up, and finding myself falling asleep only while thinking of deus ex machina for stories on this site (and for APGTE) I decided to try my hand at this web series thingy. I'm confident in my grammar, but that's it. Everything else will be a first time, and as such any constructive criticism is encouraged and gratefully accepted. Now, on the story. Romance will be introduced once my little heart is mended, if you are scared of LGBT you may be turned off by the fact that I plan to have no taboo of any kind in my universe, but I won't ever write detailed sex scenes for any characters so don't worry too much. The litRPG part is very light and will take place later in the novel, but it's a key component nonetheless, for world-building and storyline reasons. I already have everything big planned out, so I won't drop it outta nowhere, and I hope you won't find too many flaws in how things pan out. I plan to make The Pugilist an interactive story, with secondary characters created by my audience and introduced after tweaks and careful planning. The main reason I'm writing this is that I want to build a community for myself in this time of isolation. I discovered that exercising, playing the piano or video games means jack-shit when you are utterly miserable, so I hope to give some value to my readers in exchange for praise, fame, money, and companionship. I give full props to anyone who has read this whole mess of a synopsis: I hope to not disappoint too much, now let's write some more steaming garbage that will be in dire need of editing later on.
