《Jade *COMPLETED*》Chapter 5

Jade POV
It has been two days since my outburst, and only today it has stopped raining making everything dangerously wet and slippery. And if you are wondering, no, I didn't go out at all of the house. In fact I barely left my room because I was so angry and just didn't want to see anyone.
I was currently out shopping in Port Angeles when I heard a very familiar voice calling me. I looked around to see Paul Lahote walking in my direction with a big smile on his face. "Morning Jade, lovely to see you this morning."
"Thanks Paul, it's good to see you too," I told him with a smile and saw that he was carrying shopping bags aswell. "Grocery shopping?"
"Yep, someone needs to feed me and it ain't gonna be my Dad cause he can't cook for shit," Paul said with a chuckle, making me chuckle in the process. "You're shopping too?"
"Yeah, I'm in need of a new wardrobe and need to buy food for the family," I said as we started walking in the direction towards Dad's truck. "Plus I don't want Dad and Jake to live off takeout food. They need more meat and vitamins."
Paul chuckled at my words as we came to a stop. I unlocked the truck and put everything in before turning to face Paul. "I'll see you around."
"Wait!" Paul exclaimed as I was just about to enter the truck. I turned around and stared at him. "Ummm....I was wondering whether you are busy later? Maybe we could go watch a movie and grab a bite to eat after. If you want to, of course."
I stared at him in shock as his words rang through my head. Is Paul asking me out on a date? Like an actual date? Like what Rachel and Ross did before the whole 'We were on a break' thing happened?

"Like a date?" I asked making him nod with a shy smile on his handsome face. "Sure, I would love to. Pick me up at 7 and no later." With that I got into the truck and drove back home.
I cannot wait.
Once I got home, I filled the fridge up after cleaning it a few hours ago. I then went into my bedroom and sorted my closet and wardrobe out. I then chose an outfit to go out in with me settling on a pair of high-waisted-tight-fitting jeans, a long black sleeveless top, a long blue hoodie with a hood, and a pair of boots. Once I was happy with my choice of clothes, I went to have a relaxing bath so that I could calm my nerves and be prepared for anything that will happen. And once I finished, I put on my red lingerie and put on my clothes before putting on a little blush, mascara and lip balm.
I soon heard a knock and the sound of the door opening. "Jadie! You have a visitor!"
I grabbed my phone, bag and purse before leaving my bedroom to see Dad and Jake speaking with Paul. All three looked in my direction when they probably heard the sound of my boots on the floor.
"Wow! Jade, you look amazing," Paul said completely mesmerized. I felt myself blush at his words, and I honestly drooled a little when I saw that he was wearing a short sleeved top with a black leather jacket, black jeans and boots. His masculine scent of spice and sweat, mixed with the perfume and deodorant that he was wearing was making me intoxicated.
"Thanks Paul, you look amazing too," I told him as he suddenly took my hand, kissed it and pulled out a bouquet of peonies, roses and lilies. My favourite flowers. "Paul....how did you know?" I took the bouquet and smiled at their scent.

"Intuition," he replied. "She will be back by 10, Billy."
"No problem Paul, take care of her," Dad said as he ushered us out of the house and me and Paul went into his black truck. Is black his favourite colour or something? I'll find out later, let me just enjoy this date.
And let me tell you something, I enjoyed this date so much that when we returned from the diner with the most delicious chicken wings ever......I kissed him! I just couldn't handle not knowing what his lips felt like against mine, and what he tasted like aswell.
Heck throughout the whole movie of Pirate of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, I could feel Paul's heated and longing stare. It did not help also when he out of nowhere, placed his hand onto my leg and rubbed it at the beginning of the movie making me feel very hot in my clothes. Like was the guy trying to get into my pants or what?!
I swear Paul Lahote is like a drug to me.

Rise for the Sky [Slow-Pace Multi-Lead Dungeon Crawler]
Sixty people have awoken at the bottom of a one hundred floor dungeon. Together they must confront the terror of monsters and seek the answers to why they are here. Expectations: This story is written from multiple perspectives, male and female. Most chapters are a single person, but there will be chapters where there are a couple of quick scenes with different people. The story does take place in a dungeon, but there is no leveling system. This a realistic take on the classic litRPG and iskai tropes written like a traditional novel. There is a profanity warning because I wish to be natural with how people talk and cursing is a thing people do. So it will happen where it makes sense. Gore is warned because this is a realistic take, and people will be torn apart by monsters. I don't plan to be overly detailed with it but be warned it will happen. Updates Every Monday. Chapters will be between 3,000 to 5,000 words. Fulfill Patreon goals to increase updates

The Last Marshal
Weird West Fantasy Noir Once the Republic Marshals brought order to the chaotic lands along the Frontier, facing dangers both human and supernatural with ancient wisdom and a six-gun —but that was a long time ago. Destroyed by conspiracy and betrayal, all that remains of that secretive order is one nameless man on a trek though the West seeking revenge on the woman he blames for the Marshals' fall and his disgrace. When a visitor from our world joins him on his journey, they together must confront the horrors of a strange land, the mysteries of the past and the real meaning of their quest for justice. The world of Tellus is what 19th Century Earth would have looked like if the stories of Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Lovecraft and William Hope Hodgeson were real. History in this world moves slower. The old faiths persist and civilization never conquered the dark corners of the map, at least not without being inextricably changed. Technology and culture takes a little longer to evolve in this land, as people here tend to spend more time pursuing their elaborate revenge plots or trying to avoid being the next sacrifice to the Outer Gods rather than advancing science or statecraft. Imagine Cormac McCarthy by way of Edgar Rice Burroughs, though a little less testosterone-drenched than that description would imply. Three caveats: First, there are deep mysteries here, including how such a world came to be and who controls it. Second, this world is not wholly unconnected from our own. There is a historical point of divergence, but in the distant past. To paraphrase Twain: history in this world is not a repeat of our own, but it does often rhyme. And finally, this is not a setting that lends itself to happy endings.
