《Arrogance and Erin》Jake
Advertisement
I laid there staring out the window at the ocean, her head resting against my chest. We hadn't spoken a word since before we started kissing and now I didn't want to disturb her and reawake the demon. I was also afraid that I was about five seconds from asking her to marry me. While she irritated me to death, she had a passion that seemed to override everything... she unfortunately was shaping up to be close to my dream girl. Although originally my dream girl was blonde and tan, leggy, and sports obsessed, someone I could work out with. Basically someone who made the wheatgrass smoothies less miserable. But I would trade a wheatgrass Barbie for Erin. That scared the shit out of me.
A phone started ringing which brought everything back. It continued to ring, to which I sighed. "Erin, get your phone," she groaned into me, sending little vibrations across my chest, and I felt like chucking the phone out the window and having a little do over. "It's not my phone," she whispered, which made me scramble across the room for mine.
"Hello?" "Jake, I can't take it, I'm giving you custody... I'll be at your apartment tonight." "What?" I think I may actually be losing my mind here. "I'm giving you custody because I can not handle it anymore, you get her, you get our daughter." what the hell do you even say to that "well... ok, then," "so I will be there tonight around 8." "ok." she hung up and I literally felt my head spin. I have to go back to the city now.
"Erin, I have to leave," she shot up in the bed, watching me race to put my clothes back on "why? What's wrong?" dear God this woman has compassion as well. "My ex-Fiancé, is giving me custody of our kid." her jaw completely dropped, which is when I remembered that most people are not ok with that just being dropped on them. My mother for one was nowhere near happy when I told her I had a kid... she was especially not happy when I didn't marry Hannah. "You have a kid?" I nodded pulling my shirt on which just made her collapse on the bed. "I have to go back to the city now..." as I was patting pockets looking for my keys I remembered I had come down with Erin. "I'll just go find somebody else to take me or borrow a car..." she reached for her shirt climbing out of the bed. "No, I'll take you, I needed to get some work done anyway..." I stood at the edge of the stairs watching as she shoved clothes into those Louis Vuitton Duffle Bags of hers. Do I need to get my kid a gift? First I should probably remember exactly how old and what her name is. Isabelle... her name was, is, Isabelle. I raced down the stairs "I have to grab my duffle, I'll meet you at the car!" I yelled up the stairs before racing through the house to get to my house. Somebody will be in the way, I guarantee it. I began running up the steps to my room, shoving everything I could think of, into my bag before running back down and straight into Lizzy.

"Where are you going?" she held onto my arms like I was a shoplifter trying to make a break for it. "I don't have much time, Hannah is giving me custody of Isabelle... she says she can't do it anymore, and I'm not quite sure what that means but I'll take it, whatever it is I'm taking it." she smiled patting my shoulders as she let go "good for you! I want to meet my niece Jake, remember that on your way back to Boston... wait do you need a ride, I can..." I shook my head still heading for the door, "Erin's taking me," "oh really? Why's that?" I shrugged "Something about work, now I really have to go!" I ran out the door and back towards the driveway throwing my bag into the open trunk before Erin slammed it shut.
The drive consisted of mostly silence. Awkward silence. People should never sleep with each other and then have to drive somewhere. No matter if it is about convivence, do not do it. "is it a boy or girl?" she finally asked as we pulled onto the main road, only a few more hours to go. "Girl, her name's Isabelle, " she nodded passing a car, "Very pretty, I'm sure she's a little gem," I nodded "I haven't seen her in over a year... her mom didn't want to share custody with me since I was on the road... but now she says..." Erin waved her hand "Look Jake, I'm happy for you... but we don't have to keep pretending that there is something between us, it was just sex and a lot of kissing... so we can just move on, maybe we can even run into each other at a coffee shop without me spilling it down one of your hideous shirts." she passed another car, speeding up down the straight shot. "Where is this coming from? I mean really, bringing up the whole coffee thing again? What's with that?" she just shrugged, taking the sunglasses from her hair and putting them on her face. "Just forget it." the cold exterior I had first known and really despised, full of her demon ways and smoking on the roof, was back. It was back, and I'm not sure there is a way to get back the Erin I was five seconds away from proposing to. The constant buzzing, dinging, and ringing of her phone seemed to resume as if they had stayed silent when we actually got along, but now it was all over. Completely over.

In my world, there are only idiots who know nothing of the true workings of the world. They only see what is shown to them, only accepting and not questioning anything. They brag about the strength given to them yet do not know how or where that power comes from. Sick of this competition for power that is unfair to all who participate, I’m tired of being given choices that seem fine to others but don’t make any sense to me. Others are blessed with supreme talent, others are born cripple; the world is unfair and that is a fact. But what if you could see? What if the world was open to you and only you? Would your life change forever? Would you become a King amongst men? OF COURSE NOT! For the heavens are fair and they shall maintain the balance of the realm, no matter what the case. Did I ask for the knowledge I was given? NO! Did I ask for the abilities I was given? NO! So then why make me different? Why turn me into a monster who sees all yet cannot participate in the competition for power that you have arranged? WHY HAVE THE HEAVENS FORSAKEN ME? From birth I saw everything, nothing could escape my sight. However, the heavens made me a cripple, they put me in the shadows and I can’t help but yearn for the light. Why am I still of the living then? Well, Why should I give the Heavens the satisfaction of seeing me give up? I will not submit to the heavens nor will I submit to the bastards that wish to use me. All I can do now is continue to rebel against everything. All I can do is continue to battle the Heavens in my heart. I shall carve out a new path for all those like me, a path that will go against the very constitution of this world. How will I do this? I do not know. But I will! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I will upload a chapter a day on Royalroad (maybe more) however if you want more of the story at a quicker pace then go to fantasy-books.live. There are currently 110+ chapters of Path of Blood there. P.S - I started Path of Blood about a year ago so the first fifteen chapters have some problems character wise however I'm currently working with an editor to remedy these to make the story a better read. Anyway, these issues don't last long and since Pob is a story that rewards the patient, only those who've read till the latest will understand how good the story really is....I designed it to get better with every ark, surprises planned at every corner and the eventual ending of Pob will definitely not dissapoint, so stick around and give it a chance. :D
8 146In this Dangerous World
Walking home one evening after school, Devin was attacked by a monster straight out of a horror movie. Just as she thought she was going to be eaten alive, she was saved--if you can call it that--by something that could only be considered the bringer of the apocalypse, which swallows the first monster as a evening snack. Unfortunately for Devin, this new apocalyptic horror considers her the main dish. In a desperate bid, Devin manages to escape, but finds herself in a strange, dangerous new world far from Earth. Now she must figure out how to survive when everything seems to want to eat her, all while feeling the threat of that ancient eldritch looming ever closer.

8 191LbC TharnType Chapter 75.5 Aftermaths
With Pete rescued from Trump's hands thanks to Ae and the rest of the football team, what is Types reaction to an all to similar scene? (As I don't have access to the full TharnType novels I don't know if Mame covers this in any of the TTS novels. This is a "short" Fictional chapter that takes place in the aftermath of "Love by Chances" Chapter's 74-75 in which Pete is kidnapped by Trump, so kinda spoilers if you haven't read it? To read the chapter it's bassed on XxxPandoraHeartsxxX translation they have on their Wattpad account)
