《Just A Secret (Dreamnotfound)》13
Advertisement
We came back home and my mom gave us hot chocolate to warm us up since we were outside for a long time. George grabbed his cup and sat really close to me on the couch and snuggled close to me to try to warm up.
"How was the park?" My mom asked cleaning up the kitchen.
"It was fun," I say taking a sip from my cup.
"Very." George adds on with a smile. I start to blush a bit, and so does George.
"I'm so glad all of you came over this Christmas."
"Thank you for having us over, we really appreciate it." Sapnap says.
"Of course Nick, and Clay," I lift up my head. "Please bring them over more often."
"I'll try my best." I say sighing.
After we all finished our cocoa, I washed all the plates and loaded them into the dish washer. I looked at the time, 9:00 pm. I head to the front door and start to put on my coat.
"Okay mom, I think it's time for us to head home."
"Already?"
"Yeah, it's starting to get late."
"Well you all can just stay the night, just tonight and you all can leave the next morning." I look at Sapnap and George and they nod their head.
"Okay, but you have to find us tooth brushes, pjs, and toothpaste."
"I'm on it."
"Thanks momma." I hug her and she heads to her room and starts to gather everything for us.
"Man, your mom loves us." Sapnap says moving right next to me.
"She's missed you guys, I guess she also misses when we were in high school and had sleepovers like every weekend."
"It was nice to see her." George say moving on the other side of me and hugs my arm. Sapnap pretends not to notice, but he's eyeing us.

"Okay, I'm not sure if these fit you, but I remember that they were a little big in you when you guys were last here." My mom says handing George and Sapnap their pajamas. "And Clay you can just wear your dad's clothes." I walk to my parents' room and into their closet. I grab a random shirt and some pajama pants. I head to the basement and see that it hasn't changed much besides a few things that were moved around to make more room. I walk into my old room, it was kind of empty with everything moved to my new house. I get dressed and go out to see where George and Sapnap are.
"WHAT THE HELL GEORGE." Found them.
I walk into the hangout room to see George and Sapnap playing Monopoly. Sapnap landed on a very expensive lot that George owned.
"George can we please trade? I don't have enough money to pay for rent."
"I don't want your trashy rail road." George scoffs.
"Please George. I'm begging you."
"Pay the rent."
Sapnap sighs and the screen pops up with the words "bankrupted" popped on the screen.
"Intense game of Monopoly?"
"Well if George didn't spend all of this money on lots I would actually have a chance."
"Three years later and you still can beat George in Monopoly."
"Shut up Dream." I stick my tongue at him to poke fun at him. George invites me to play a few games against him and Sapnap.
Once Sapnap wins a different game; he starts to brag about how he won. It was starting to late and I decided to go to bed, Sapnap was sleeping in the guest bedroom, George was going to sleep on the couch, and I slept in my old room. We all got ready for bed, said goodnight and went into rooms. Once I got into the bed, I was restless. I kept tossing and turning, I stared at the ceiling and the dim light around the ceiling. How the hell am I going to sleep? I was on my side when I heard a faint knock, I look over and see George peering around the corner.

"Oh, hey George." I sit up.
"Hey Dream, were you sleeping?"
"No, I can't sleep."
"Neither can I. Can I talk to you for a bit?"
"Sure," I move over and lift up the comforter. He sits where I previously was and he sat down and put the comforter on himself.
"What's on your mind?"
"I don't know why but I can't stop thinking about our," He stops and smiles to himself and blushes a little bit.
"Our kiss?" He looks at me and nods his head. "What about it?"
"I dunno, just it being so perfect."
"Perfect?"
"Yeah, perfect." I smile and so does he.
"I'm sorry if you didn't want to do it, I completely understand if you didn't-"
"No, no, no. It's completely fine."
What the hell. Why am I like this.
"I need to get something off my chest."
"What's that?"
"Remember when I said I like someone?"
"Yeah," He takes a breath.
"It's a he. I like a guy."
"A guy." I smile.
"Yeah, I'm kinda embarrassed."
"There's no need to be embarrassed, I'm glad you told me."
He looks at me with a relived look.
"Can I sleep here tonight? This is a little bit more comfortable than the couch."
"Yeah, it's not anything different from what we do at my house."
I lay my head on my pillow and he does while he faces me. I think he knows by now I like him. I put my hand on his cheek and stroke his face with my thumb. I give him a light kiss on the forehead.
"Goodnight George,"
"Goodnight Dream,"

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.
