《Forgiven: A Zarry Instagram Story》43(zayn)

I was kind of shocked when I heard Harry say 'I love you' last night, I didn't know what to do and panicked so I just said 'You're Welcome.' Which I think was kinda harsh.
I haven't talked to him since last night, he was in the kitchen and I was here still, lying in bed thinking about things. After a few minutes of lying down, I heard the door open and I pretended to be asleep. I had heard Harry let out a sigh as he sat on the bed. He stayed there for a good while before getting up and walking out of the room, closing the door behind him. As soon as heard the door close, I opened my eyes. I checked the clock that read 9:23 am. I figured I better get up and hop in the shower. I got out of bed, went to the bathroom and closed the door. I turned on the water, let it warm up and when it was warm I finally stepped into the shower. I was in there for a good 10 minutes or so when I finally turned the water off and stepped out. I opened the door, not thinking to put my towel around me, and there was Harry.
"Harreh!" I shouted as he turned to look at me before I could cover myself up.
"Jesus Zayn, don't you use a towel?"
"I didn't know you were going to be in here."
"What if I was someone else? Anyways it's not like it's nothing I haven't seen already" Harry said in a sarcastic tone.
"Still Harry."
"Well I think we need to talk."
I turned to him after he said that, "I know what you want to talk about, we've known each other for more than 5 years so it wasn't awkward or anything, I just panicked when you said it and didn't know what to say" I sat down on the bed next to him, "But Harry look" he looked at me with that worried face I have seen before, "I love you too" I said as I kissed him on the lips.

As we pulled away he said, "I thought I was maybe too early for your likings and I was scared that you would break up with me or something."
"No, never Harry. I wouldn't do that, I would tell you if I wasn't ready, but that's not the case, I DO love you and I have for a while now."
"Me too Z."
"Just know that I wouldn't break up with you for something so little like that. I love you too much."
"I love you too" he said as we kissed once more.
"Now I made breakfast while you were sleeping, so let's go eat."
We both got up from my bed and made our way to the kitchen to eat.

Tower of Somnus
When humanity first encountered alien life, we were judged and found wanting. The Galactic Consensus interviewed our leaders and subjected us to a battery of psychological tests to determine our progress as a society. They found us to be selfish, wasteful, impulsive, and boorish neighbors. Earth was blockaded and our collective encounter with our extrasolar neighbors rapidly faded from memory. All they left behind was a hypercomm relay and a handful of subscriptions to a massively multiplayer game that participants played in their sleep. The Consensus said that it would let us interact with our neighbors in a controlled setting. That it would teach us to be better members of the galactic community. The megacorporations that controlled Earth ignored the game until they learned that the powers earned from clearing dungeons were just as real when day broke. Magic, supernatural abilities and rumors exploded from nothing and a subscription to The Tower of Somnus became a status symbol. Katherine ‘Kat’ Debs doesn’t have much, but it could be worse. Born in an arcology, she was assigned a job in the megacorporation that raised her almost as soon as she could work. Despite the stability of her corporate life, she wanted something more. A chance to claw her way up the rigid social and financial ladder to make something of herself. A chance that wouldn’t come naturally to someone as familiar with dark alleyways and the glint of steel as she was with office work and corporate niceties.Book One is up on Kindle Unlimited as of 7/6/22 - https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B0B2X3L8H5

8 431To Cross the Threshold
What would one do, when a star crashes into the Earth? Die, of course! Except, in Joseph's case, it was all wrong. He met face-to-face with the Light, got the program forced into his brain, and woke up far, far away from his small insignificant hometown, in the ethereal endless void, full of stars and vigour, guns and loot, Daemons and Skills! From there on out, he got volunteered into the crew of the Morning Star, the pirate ship he was unfortunate enough to stumble upon. With a tree for the Captain, a dragoncat for the Quartermaster, and a human, equal in height and width, as the Cook, he sets sail across the mysterious and hostile Threshold, filled with fierce abominations, rich Ghosts, and patriotic soldiers from the Glorious Metal Empire, all to figure out what the Light has brought upon his Earth that day, and to find his way back home. Warning - English is not my first language, so I apologize in advance for any inconsistencies and grammar mistakes. Please, do point them out when you find some. Updates three days a week - Monday, Wednesday, Friday. This book is about the slice-of-life-ish lighthearted adventures of Joseph and Co. Just one long bumpy road, inspired by old-school RPGs.

Some of you believe in fate and some of you don't. That's ok in our world. In the world that I created Fate has been acting strange and selfish for a long time.She was always fascinated with humans and the fact that they had soulmates because a lot of other races didn't. Ever since humans started traveling through space, that opened millions of new opportunities for Fate to make the human soulmates meet.However, because of her strange behaviour Fate made too many mistakes.After that, Fate made what she thought, was a good move. What she didn't count on was that the good move she made knew that you can cheat fate. One and his crew don't know how ironic it is that she chose them to make her good move. ------------------------------- I didn't use any movies, books or series for inspiration the story is my original work. This is just the result of my weird imagination and brain telling me what to write. I hope you liked it :) It’s just a story, like all of my other stores. It doesn’t have a deeper spiritual, moral or ethical meaning.
