《Crazy》66: Love

"Wait, Alayna!" I heard gravelly footsteps coming up behind me.
"I'm sorry, you had to find out this way." I turned around so fast I almost got whiplash.
"You're sorry? You were the one that made me find out."
"I couldn't let you live in the darkness the rest of your life, princess." I shook my head.
"Don't you dare call me that."
"I'm sorry about how much of a dick I was about it. But you were being a bitçh too."
I really wanted to slap him.
"So you decided, what's better than to throw it in her face that her father is a sadist and her mom was his victim!" I was screaming at him but it didn't matter because his nearest neighbor was almost a mile away.
"Look please, just come back inside. You can't drive in this state." It was only then I realized I had tears rolling down my face.
I pushed past him and went back inside.
"Stay away from me." I spoke as I went to one of the empty rooms.
This had completely tired me out mentally and I needed a break.
I locked the bedroom door closed and laid on the bed. I would take a power nap and go home and never speak to this aśshole again.
I closed my eyes and was out like a light.
;-;-;-;
I woke up who knows after how long. The room I was in was no longer illuminated by sunlight but dark. That means the sun must have set. Which also means, I was asleep for hours.
I got up and went towards the door. I opened it only slightly to peek out and saw Drew laying next to the door.
Did he really wait out here like a guard?

I opened it wider and tip-toed past him. I was hungry again and wanted food. When I got to the kitchen I realized he ordered pizza.
I ate two slices before walking to the living room, there was a sofa, a desk and a large weird looking TV.
Out of curiosity, I turned it on.
My breath got caught in my throat and i started coughing as my hand let go of the remote.
In front of me was footage from surveillance cameras...from my house. My room with Ron. My old room. The kitchen. The living room. Front yard and back yard. Ron's old room.
I heard footsteps and turned around.
"What. The. Fûck."
"Let me explain." He started, there was nothing to explain though. He was watching me for the past two freaking years.
"I did it to protect you."
"Protect me! How does this protect me!"
"No one can hurt you..."
"I thought I was crazy but you have lost it, Drew."
"Look I'm sorry. I know you wouldn't want to see me ever again after everything. But I wanted to make sure you were safe and this was the only way I could think of. Please, princess."
I went to the sofa and sat down. I stared at the footage of the kitchen.
Ron was making food.
Oh my god, Ron!
"Shït." I got up quickly and went back to the room I slept in to look for my phone. It was on the nightstand thankfully.
"What are you doing?" Drew must've followed me back to the room.
"Calling my fiancée."
"I already took care of it. He thinks your with Cole." He did not sound happy when he spoke.
"I still have to go."

"We haven't talked in two years, Alayna."
"And who's fault is that?"
He looked away for a moment.
"I still love you, Alayna." He blurted out.
"What?"
"I still love you." I stared in shock, those were four words I did not expect to hear from him.
"I have to go." I put my phone in my back pocket and this time I left for good.

Don't know how I feel about this one.

Bon Week-end
He runs the underground. She’s made it her playground. Their time together--the stuff of pulp fiction. When a corrupt corporate conspiracy threatens to tear them apart, they blast back with their offbeat brand of crime and chaos. This story is just one from the pulps. Film critic Roger Ebert once described them as ‘cheap, disposable entertainment that you could take to work with you, and roll up and stick in your back pocket.’ So do just that--and read it on the weekend. Bon Week-end is a novel written in the tradition of Jean-Patrick Manchette’s neo-polar, existing now as what shall be known as the neo-serial. This is Nippoten’s second serial following the superhero epic Entirely Presenting You. This novel will have a rather unique release schedule compared to others. To stay up to date, check out the main site and more specifically the chapters page.

A Tale of the Ages: Gods, Monster, and Heros
The past get's forgotten. Or so they say. Maybe they're right. Even the gods forgot the beginning, the reason it all started. But I refuse to forget, even if I'm driven mad by the memory. Salvation? It's pointless. No one is worth saving, but that doesn't mean they aren't worth helping. No one is a plaything, but everyone's a pawn in this game. I hate it. Who's playing? I don't know. I don't even know what the game really is. I gave up on figuring that out after a time. What I do know is that I want to tell you all a story. It has a beginning, a middle, and an end, as any good story should. But, I really don't think you'd keep listening if I told it in order. So, we will start at three points; you'll have to figure out where they are in the overall story. The story of Hal and instinct, a pair so close that they might as well have been one. The story of The Husk, a creature on a hunt that would span generations. The story of Mask and a hero. How one will come to learn of the other's past and the many faces they had. Do you know where you stand? Do you side with the gods, the hero, the demon king, the experiment, the cursed, the blessed, the monsters, the forgotten? Well? I know. You don't know anything yet, so you can't say. So, enter our world, and find out what side is what.

A Suspicious Lack of Horses
World: The framework of reality. The rules which govern interaction. The dimensions within which existence takes place. Soul: Mind. The source of thought, of consciousness. The means by which reality is observed. Body: Form. The means by which one interacts with the World. The substance from which reality is formed. Spirit: Life. The connection between Soul and Body. The anchor to the World. What happens when these foundational forces are given human form? When they're confronted with the truths of human nature, of human frailty? When the evils of reality are thrown in their face and the question is asked: What are you going to do about it? Why did anyone ever think they'd need horses? I upload ~30k word chunks at the beginning of every month, rotating through each character in order. I have at least four extra chunks on my Patreon. I suggest setting your reading preferences to indent and 30 pt paragraph spacing for the best reading experience.
