《RESCUED AND RISEN》Chapter 16

"Did you served all those drinks already?" Katie asked once I came back to the bar counter with the empty tray.
"Yeah, I just went over to that table" I pointed in the direction of the table a few steps away from the bar. "The guys were anxious to get their drinks".
"Oh, because I was thinking that's really quick" she said before going to make a drink for a guy.
"Hey! Blondie. Move faster! Am I gonna be getting some attention over here anytime now or what?" Another guy at the opposite end of the bar shouted at her.
"Are you blind or something!! Can't you see that I'm dealing with another customer at the moment!? If you can't wait then you can go the hell to somewhere else then" Katie snapped back at him.
"Seems like you're gonna be needing some help behind that bar" I said as I made my way over and decided to serve Mr.Rude Guy.
"What can I get you?"
"Give me a beer" he said still as rude. "And make it snappy"
"Coming right up" I said rolling my eyes as I went to get his beer. "There you go".
"Whatever. Its about time one of you do your damn job right" the guy dismissed throwing the cash on the counter before walking off.
"His freaking head must be too big for his body" I muttered as he was gone.
"Good riddance to bad rubbish" Katie responded. "So damn rude"
"I know right. I hope he chokes on it" I said to her.
"I'll take a flask of cute bartender with a shot of hotness added" Matthew said as he came up to the bar sitting on a stool.
"Oh? I'm sorry sir but I think we just ran out of hotness" I giggled at him.
"Seriously? Oh man" Matthew said feigning disappointed. "I guess I'll just have the bartender then"
"Okay, which flavor bartender do you want? Blonde or dark haired one?" I asked playing along.
"Let's see, I don't think my body deals well with the blonde flavors so I guess you can just recommend the best one for me" Matthew smirked.
"Oh my God. You two are sick" Katie groaned shaking her head at our antics.

"Okay then. One cute dark hair bartender coming up" I chuckled before leaning over the counter to kiss him.
"Hey no fraternizing or showing of PDA with the customers" Katie said once I pulled back. "Rule number one"
"I don't think that rule still applies if the customer is my boyfriend" I chuckled.
"Good point, I'll have to recheck the rulebook on that one" Katie chuckled before turning to Matthew. "Hey Mattie what's up?"
"Katie hun... I'm good and even better now that I got to see my girl. What are you up to?" Matthew asked.
"I'm here living the bar life" Katie gestured around bar with her hand.
"Oh I can see that" Matthew chuckled.
"So what are you doing here?" I asked him before frowning. "Wait, dont tell me. You did not just come here to deliver to Katie did you?"
"Oh no hun, not me I'm still stacked" Katie said shaking her head.
"No, I'm not delivering anything tonight. I'm just here to see you" Matthew smiled. "I sorta missed you"
"Aww that's so sweet. I've missed you too" I smiled at him.
So Matthew and I had made our relationship official two weeks now, though we've been seeing each other for over a month now nearly two. We've been taking things one step at a time but things were good between us. There was just one thing that I didn't like though and it was the fact that he was involved with this whole drugs thing. Having a boyfriend and a best friend who did drugs from time to time was a hell of a lot tempting. Especially when he gave me the pills to deliver to Katie. Even sometimes Nora would come over and they'd both do lines and ask if I was sure I didn't need just a little sample, over and over I was tempted but my will to stay clean overthrew those temptation and I'll just leave and go visit my mom.
"What time do you get off tonight? I was thinking we could go hang out for a while or something" Matthew said to me.
"In a couple of hours. Although..." I drawled looking at Katie with those pleading eyes. "I could leave now, if my best friend love me enough to cover for me?"

"Amy no, you seriously want to leave me alone here to deal with all the a$$holes?" Katie said shaking her head.
"Please Katie, just this once" I pleaded with a pout. "I'll make it up to you, I promise. Besides, its almost time for Sebastian's shift. He'll be here soon"
"Ah fine" Katie sighed. "Go on, but you owe me"
"Oh thank you" I giggled as I hop over to pull her in a tight hug.
"Alright, alright. Stop crushing me now" Katie groaned.
"Sorry. I'll see you later okay and thanks again" I smiled at her before turning to Matthew "Just give me a minute to go change out of these okay"
I hurried around the back to change out of the skimpy bar uniform I have to wear here and back into my original clothes that I had wore to work. After changing I went back to meet Matthew before leaving in his car.
"I was thinking we could go to a movie then grab something to eat" Matthew said to me.
"Sure that's sounds good but how about we go to your place and watch a movie there and order pizza?" I suggested.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I just don't feel like being in a crowded area anymore" I said to him. "The bar sort of already did a number on me"
"I understand, we could definitely do that. Here I've got a pizza place number in here, could you call and order?" Matthew asked as he passed his phone to me.
"Sure" I said as I tool the phone and ordered the pizza.
About five minutes after we had reached at Matthew's apartment the pizza guy showed up. I had told Matthew to choose the movie or else we'd be watching a chick flick. So we ended up watching one of those Tyler Perry's comedy.
We were out of drinks so I got up to go get us refill.
While returning with the two glasses in hand Matthew was coming in same time to assist me but we collided and everything went down his shirt front soaking it.
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry. I didn't even see you coming in" I apologized putting down the now empty glasses on the counter.
"Its okay" Matthew chuckled looking down at his shirt. "Its a good thing this happened at home isn't it? I can always go change"
"Yeah, I'm still sorry though. You must feel quite sticky now" I said looking at his ruined shirt.
"Not quite as yet, but I'm not going to wait to start feeling that way" Matthew said walking over to the sink while lifting his shirt over his head.
"Holy shit" I whispered to myself as I saw him without his shirt now for the very first time.
Seeing Matthew shirtless was doing weird things to my body, he was so damn hot. Especially the way his back was well toned and those back muscles, I just had to see the front. If his back was this sexy there's no doubt that his chest would be just as sexy.
"Here let me help" I said grabbing a towel and walking over to him.
Wetting the towel I went to wipe off his chest and stomach. I couldn't help but feast my eyes on his well defined upper body as my hand ran over his chest and stomach. I was frightened though when I looked back to his face and saw him watching me with that amused expression, I knew he saw me checking him out.
"I'm sorry, I just... Couldn't resist looking..." I started apologizing.
"Its okay" Matthew chuckled. "You don't have to apologize for checking me out, you know this is practically yours"
"Yeah?" I chuckled as I finished wiping his chest and putting down the towel.
"Yeah" Matthew smirked before leaning in to kiss me.
Smiling I gladly returned it. The kiss was getting a bit heated when we both pulled back for air.
"Do you want to go to your room or something?" I suggested.
"You sure about that?" Matthew asked when he realized what I was suggesting by asking to go to his bedroom.
"Yeah" I nodded.
"Okay" Matthew muttered before lifting me up, my legs wrapped around his waist and carrying us to his room.

Essence Eater (A Super Progression Fantasy)
Gods. Demons. Aliens. Superheroes. Supervillains.Consume them all for power. Eighty years have passed since WW2, when Prime took to the skies and ended the war. No one knows what gave him his power, or what birthed the wave of supers that came after. Some claimed the nuclear bombs dropped in Japan cracked the barrier between Universes, allowing alien energies to enter the dimension. Others believed the wars finally triggered what humanity needed to reach a new stage of evolution. Daniel Das lives with his uncle in post-super London, the League of Hero's primary hub. He's spent all of his twenty-one years pushing himself, training in martial arts and studying supers, hoping he'll awaken his metagene and gain super powers. The cut-off age is close, but he hasn't yet awakened superpowers. Meanwhile, the League is steadily losing parts of the city to the growing villain factions. Daniel's uncle wishes to keep him away from the world of supers, but with the hot zones closing in, that's easier said than done. There are villains selling unregulated superpowers to gangs and dark days are on the horizon. Despite his limitations, there is no stopping Daniel. He is ravenous for power. If needed, he will ally with demons if they give him the power to protect his family and home. -------------------------------- This world building is heavily inspired by Worm and The Boys. It features dark, realistic storylines, corporation-funded heroes, and villains who aren't necessarily bad guys. The protagonist's powerset involves the crowd-favourite consuming enemies for power trope, too. The GameLit/LitRPG elements are super light and takes a while to kick in. The powercreep is slow as well since I don't enjoy overpowered protagonists. Chapters everyday until book 1 is complete. The schedule will change once I reach that point.
