《Flatmates》23
Advertisement
We spend the afternoon lounging around the pool, messing around in the water and talking about anything other that work. We were all finally beginning to relax, London a distant memory.
As the afternoon turned into evening, Ethan decided to fire up the barbecue. He was probably the safest bet out of the other lads. I mean, can you imagine Alex using a barbecue? We would be in A&E before the first burger was cooked.
Whilst Ethan cooked with James as sous chef, the rest of us set the table and made drinks. Jugs of (probably lethal) cocktails, surrounded by shots (thanks to Alex our alcoholic magician) covered the table leaving little room for the food.
***
We ate until none of us could stomach anymore, the jugs empty and the shots gone. We cleared everything up, refilled the jugs and shot glasses and went and sat back outside. Although it was getting late it was still warm, all just in shorts and t-shirts. Will brought his wireless speaker outside, and the more we drank the more we danced and messed around. We knew it was going me be a messy night with messy hangovers in the morning, but we didn't care. We had no worries.
'So there is seven lads and our honorary female. Who do we think Jess is gonna shag this holiday?' George blurts out, causing me to choke on my drink.
'Woah fucking what? None of you lot thats for sure!' I say as I throw my empty cup at Georges head.
'My bet is on Alex' Will winks, dodging my arm as I went to slap him around the head.
'I won't be fucking anyone thank you very much' I say as I make a second swing, finally connecting.
'You must like.. have needs though?' James pipes up, ducking before I even find anything to throw.

'We are NOT having this conversation, thank you very much' I say louder than I mean too as I finally find an empty cup to lob in his direction. 'My sex life is not up for discussion!'
'Oh man, you need to relieve some of that sexual tension' Ethan joins in.
'FUCK. OFF' I shout, back-handing his arm. 'No sexual tension. No discussion.'
***
It is starting to get light outside by the time we all stumble to our bedrooms. James carries me, whilst Ethan helps Harry up the stairs to our room. James dumps me on my bed before turning and leaving, Harry falling in through the door into a heap on the floor.
'I think.. I might.. be drunk' he groans, making no effort to move.
'You and me both.. you and me both..' I grumble in response, trying to figure out how I was going to move to change. The room spinning around me.
Harry finally pulls himself up off of the floor and flops down onto my bed face down.
'Harry.. wrong bed' I groan as I try to shove him. My limbs not really working as well as normal.
'I know.. I am getting there slowly.. its too far.'
'I have no clue how I am going to get changed. I don't think my legs even work' I whisper, trying to pull myself up and failing. Harry sits himself up and then pulls me up with him into a sitting position.
'There ya go.. just don't fall over.'
I stumble to the wardrobe and pull out my pyjamas before attempting, and failing, to walk into the bathroom. Harry comes over and picks me up off of the floor, ignoring my pleas to just leave me there. He sits me on his bed, pulls my t-shirt up over my head, and replaces it with the new one. Then he shimmies my shorts down my legs, before stuggling to get my pyjama bottoms on.

'There you go.. don't say I don't do anything for you' he chuckles. I lay back on the bed, unable to move. Before I know it, I pass out into a deep sleep.

Bear with me or contact me if you find something that is just too bad for you. Actually, I appreciate any reports of errors (spelling or continuity) that you find and let me know about. In the discord I have a dedicated channel for these reports. If you don't want to join... I do read the chapter comments. ;)There is one thing I want to point out though. And that is that I chose to place this story in a LitRPG and game universe so it doesn't have to be 100% scientifically correct. Also: Clarke's 3rd law!

Transposed
Apparently, even heaven had the odd clerical error. Which was not something Nathaniel Miller would have expected, and yet, that seemed to be exactly what had happened to him. The collector of souls seemed to have been given the wrong address, and instead of taking one Nathaniel Miller of the earth apparently right next door, he took Nate. As recompense for this small bit of error Nate was placed in the body of the Nathaniel Miller that had supposed to have been taken in the first place, and seeing as he now had an opportunity to try to live his life a different way he planned on taking advantage of this chance. No one, however, had specified how different this world would be from his, sure they had said the tech would be a little older, and there were other small anomalies. But no one had seen fit to let him know that older meant medieval, and those small anomalies mentioned? They probably referred to all the fantasy elements and magic that seemed to be part of this world. Still, he was determined to do better this time around, after all, chances like this were next to unheard of...

Tale of Tales
* Tale of Tales is a High/Epic Fantasy saga based on the motifs of ancient myths, legends, and forgotten fairytales * Senka is no hero, but you never know what is coming for you. And if that burns down your house and family, while you are left blinded by your house’s guardian snake, the outlook becomes grim. So Senka clings to her dog’s back to survive, unaware of the fateful prophecy and the great changes to come. But when a wandering warrior becomes her protector and mysterious strangers join their hounded party through a series of seemingly chance encounters, they all begin to discover that all is not as it seems. What is pursuing her? And why? Can the strange characters gathering around her on her desperate quest save her from doom? Are they mere puppets of a young, beguiling witch guided by her own hidden motives, or are forgotten shadows rising again from the immeasurable depths of time? A tale of folk fairytales and myths, of swords and sorcery and mythical beings – a unique story of dark times and unsung heroes who may light your way. Book one, A Strange Bunch, features leading characters of various ages. This is a fantasy with their progression happening slowly throughout the series, with occasional spikes in character power after certain encounters that may or may not be random. Although the book series is written with adult and young adult audiences in mind, it is, in the tradition of such epics as “The Lord of the Rings,” suitable for all ages. Excerpt from the scene depicted on the cover of the first book: “Above this hellish pack and the rider at the forefront, flurried a ghastly sight – a cloud of dark, endlessly bustling bodies and wings, a swarm of creatures that, through their almost infinite number, produced that great din which had first reached the ears…” RELEASE SCHEDULE is about once a week. The entire series should take around two and a half years of weekly chapter episodes, so do encourage me by reacting and following. Ratings are greatly appreciated!
