《Instafamous|| B.U.》Eighty-Five
Advertisement
We got back to the house at nearly midnight, meaning it was almost seven AM at home. Before he fell asleep, Tom went to the room he was staying in to FaceTime Aella, leaving Brendon and I to be alone in the living room. He had fallen asleep right after we finished eating, and slept most of the plane ride here, so he said he wasn't that tired.
"Cam?" he spoke, his voice almost at a whisper.
"Yes Brendon?"
"Can we talk? Like in all seriousness, no joking around," he asked, a deadpanned look on his face.
"Yeah of course. What's up?"
"Do you think that you could ever give me another chance?"
"Yeah, I think I could. Would you like me to?"
"There's nothing I would like more Cam. These past four months that we've been broken up, have been some of the worst in my life; worse than when my parents kicked me out, worse than when the band split, hell even worse than when I found out everything that had happened with Sarah. I- I missed you so much, but I couldn't do anything because I knew that it was I who fucked everything up in the first place. I am so sorry Cam. I should've told you that Sarah and I met up while I was in Vegas, and I so regret it now. You're the best thing that has ever happened to me, an-and I don't think I could survive without you in my life."
By this time, tears are streaming down my face. I knew that my eyes were red and puffy, along with the rest of my face being the same.
"Br-brendon," I start, but can't continue due to the sobs coming out of my mouth. With everything that has been going on recently, I've been trying to keep busy so I didn't think about it. When I called Brendon yesterday, I had broken down for the first time. This time, it was about to be a whole lot worse.

A few days before we wrapped on season 1 of Supergirl in Vancouver, Addilyn and I had gotten in a huge fight over practically nothing. We hadn't seen each other the entire time I was there, despite her not filming at all and me very little. I had asked her why, and she got mad and started yelling at me, which led to a huge fight between us; our first one ever. I left her apartment crying, and she didn't even seem affected by it. We had kept up appearances online for a large number of reasons, but mainly so we didn't get any bad publicity for either of our shows.
That was the night that I received the phone call about my dad. I hadn't even made it back to my hotel room yet, and I was told that he had killed himself. It later turned out to be murder, but I didn't know that until a few days later when I was able to fly down. I didn't have my medication or Brendon to calm me down, so that flight really didn't end well.
The pain of what happened between Brendon and I never went away either. I had kept it to myself, in order to keep a decent public appearance. All three of these things finally drove me to the edge, when I called Brendon.
He didn't say anything as he pulled me into his shoulder, running his hands through my hair in attempt to calm me down. It worked a little, and I was able to explain to him everything that had happened.
"Oh my god Cam, I am so sorry. I- I had no idea."
"It's fine Bren, you had no way of knowing," I replied to him, wiping me tears using my sleeve. He pulled me into his lap like he used to, and held me there, my head resting on his shoulder.

We sat there for what felt like hours, but actually was only about 10 minutes. My crying had subsided, but I knew my face was still red.
"Brendon?" I whispered against his chest, so low I didn't think he heard it.
"Yes?"
"Can you promise me something?"
"Of course."
"Can you promise that if I let you in again, you won't break my heart again?" I ask him, my voice still just above a whisper.
"I promise you that Cam, you just have to give me the chance," he replies, him voice changing to match my volume. I pull my chest away to look at him. We made eye contact and kept it unbroken.
I don't know who started it first, but we were both leaning in, our eye contact still in place. It was broken by me, as I slid my eyes eyes closed as our lips met.
It started out soft at first, like we were 14 and having our first kiss ever. Our lips barely brushing against the other person's, but that changed quickly. I pressed mine against against his harder, and our lips start molding together. He pulls me in closer, and I run my hands through his hair.
We pull away, and are both out of breath. It takes us a second to regain it, and I move out of his lap and sit next to him again.
"That was..." he started.
"Yeah," I breathed out.
"Uhm, I just came down to say goodnight, but I saw that instead and now I think I'm blind," Tom said, stumbling into the room. His eyes were covered by his left hand, and he tried to sit on the couch, but missed it by a foot and fell on his ass instead. Brendon and I both started laughing at his, and he uncovers his eyes and stands up. "Seriously though guys, get a room. And get one when I'm not around, because I don't want to hear that shit. Goodnight guys, no sex while I'm here please."
"No promises!" Brendon shouts after him, and I shove him.
"What the actual fuck?" I ask him.
"What?! I'm not promising him anything!"
"Yeah, no Brendon."

The Traveller from Afar
Lucas didn't know what he wanted, but it certainly wasn’t to get dragged into the middle of a another world. Too bad for him the universe had different plans and now he has to deal with the consequences of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. At least it isn't all bad, he gets to finally make use of those cooking lessons he was dragged into. Chapters 1-4 are kind of like a prologue, they are self contained and only give some background information for the rest of the story.*********This is my first attempt trying to write any type of longer form story so I have no idea if any thing I produce will be readable, I've tried to make sure I have a decent level of grammar and there are no spelling mistakes, but if you do find any please let me know. I am also from the home of tea and crumpets (the uk) so if there are some u's and s's your not used to seeing thats probably it. Uh I dont really know what else to put in a story description so just give it a shot and let me know what you think, any pointers would be greatly appeciated.

The Pugilist
Vincent Roy Salazar has never been your common folk. He climbed any mountain he found in front of him. From a bright young student to an accomplished professor, his life can be described as a continuous race to the top of his chosen fields. Patriarch of a loving family, proud father of three already grown siblings, Roy realizes that his life is the perfect picture of what the average man strives for, and for that he is truly grateful. But happiness is a difficult-to-reach goal, and as he lies in a pool of his own blood, his fist cracked, a young lady crying while cradling his head, he remembers what really gave sense to his youth. Pure Unadulterated Violence The Pugilist wants to be a different take on isekai shenanigans. What would happen if instead of a moronic idiot, a depressed high schooler, or a wannabe hero the one to get his do-over is a fully grown man that has already seen what life has to offer in full? Someone who conformed himself to society, but has always craved something different? In a journey of self-discovery, academy building, god-slaying, and absolutely no harem we follow someone driven by logic, experience, and a smokey goal: to fuck shit up, have fun while doing so, and maybe resume his career as a professor for those strange, magic-wielding, unstable youths that seems to never get enough of his presence. Guys, a few notes, first of all, this is my first time writing long-form fiction. I have a background in psychology, and my main income comes from writing dreary financial articles on SEO blogs. But after a bad break-up, and finding myself falling asleep only while thinking of deus ex machina for stories on this site (and for APGTE) I decided to try my hand at this web series thingy. I'm confident in my grammar, but that's it. Everything else will be a first time, and as such any constructive criticism is encouraged and gratefully accepted. Now, on the story. Romance will be introduced once my little heart is mended, if you are scared of LGBT you may be turned off by the fact that I plan to have no taboo of any kind in my universe, but I won't ever write detailed sex scenes for any characters so don't worry too much. The litRPG part is very light and will take place later in the novel, but it's a key component nonetheless, for world-building and storyline reasons. I already have everything big planned out, so I won't drop it outta nowhere, and I hope you won't find too many flaws in how things pan out. I plan to make The Pugilist an interactive story, with secondary characters created by my audience and introduced after tweaks and careful planning. The main reason I'm writing this is that I want to build a community for myself in this time of isolation. I discovered that exercising, playing the piano or video games means jack-shit when you are utterly miserable, so I hope to give some value to my readers in exchange for praise, fame, money, and companionship. I give full props to anyone who has read this whole mess of a synopsis: I hope to not disappoint too much, now let's write some more steaming garbage that will be in dire need of editing later on.

Snereloa Rebirth
In the darkest shining void, an ethereal being holding a scepter floats toward a nebula made up of the souls of the dead from all realms awaiting to be reutilized into the cycle. They aren't a deity of death, but one tracking an anomaly that can't be processed and completely wiped clean as they enjoy calling it. A fresh start, without shackles or remnants of what once was. Life is a price paid by all living beings, but like any transaction, we give it something in exchange for our memories, our feelings, our emotions, our past, and future, our ambitions and our dreams. Those all fuel the fire of creation, but so do grief, and pain. Every moment of suffering is the price, every living moment is paid at our death. Sometimes some have so much piled up that their soul and heart end up damaged. Be it loss of trust or being unable to truly live their life, those shackles are like an anchor that keeps the soul stable when on the verge of breaking apart, keeping it together at an immense price. Those unlucky souls are forced to be put into another life indebted, in the unlikely possibility of their defect healing themself in that new life. Their memories aren't intact after all—everything has a price—and that pain and fear are what they carry, while their partial amnesia is their shackle. This is the story of one such soul, of a girl sent into a world of legend and novel of fantasy, dragons and magic. A world away from what she knew, in which she will hopefully heal, be happy, and survive its side of darkness. Ps: my english is self learnt that mean typo and some other issue will happen but it shouldnt affect the sense of the story if u have any correction u would want me to do or some thing arent clear please tell me
