《Finally》(8)

It's been two weeks since that horrible meeting with my parents and siblings. Today is the date. Today is going to be amazing. Nikki and Dominic are minding Daisy while we go for the whole day. Tom said she could come but we need to be just us, not being parents... well me but ya know what I mean. I loosely curl my hair and do natural make up. I go out and Tom has Daisy dressed. I smile and look away. Tom looks at me. "You look amazing, Clara" said Tom. "Thank you" said Clara, blushing. Daisy walks over. "Nikki and Dom" said Daisy. "Yes their babysitting you" said Clara. Daisy cheers. "She is very happy for my parents to baby sit her" said Tom. "I guess it's because she never had a granddad and grandma to be like that. She needs that" said Clara. Tom picks her up. "She does" smiled Tom. I look at Tom. His amazing with her. He really is.
Tom looks at me. "I know I am an actor and need to head over to America pretty soon for Spider-Man 3 but if you two want, you can come with me?" asked Tom. I look at him. "We'd like that" said Clara. Nikki and Dominic walk in. "Dee it's time for grandparents time. If your family isn't gonna step up... we are" said Nikki. I hug them both. "Thank you" said Clara. Me and Tom leave to get breakfast and then we go to the park to sit on the bench. "You know, Clara... I hated it when we lost touch. My job took me away from you and then we never reconnected" said Tom. "While my past mistakes took me from you. It's weird how everything worked out. What if we're meant for each other and we did not realise it and I dated someone who was an arsehole." said Clara. "Well we're lucky fate bought us back together" said Tom. I smile. "That we are, Tom" smiled Clara.

We decide to go watch a movie. At 1pm. We decide on Scoob and it was great. As we decide on lunch I spot Lillie, Kevin and Josiah. I sigh and Tom grabs my hand. "Hey everything will be OK" said Tom. They walk over. "Clara, Tom hi" said Kevin. I nod. "Clara can we talk?" asked Lillie. I nod and walk away with her. We down. Lillie begins to cry. "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to shut you out. I wasn't thinking and I was trying to be the good daughter but I forgot that I had a duty as an older sister to protect you! I am so sorry, I hope you can forgive me" said Lillie. I place my hand on hers. "Lillie. I forgive you. Your my sister and to be honest I was never sure I could forgive you but your my sister and I can't exchange sisters, no matter what" said Clara. We share a hug and go back. "So Tom, how long you two been dating" said Lillie. "Our first date is today. I lied to your parents because I wanted to make them see she's happy" said Tom. "Thanks, she is certainly happy with you" said Lillie.
I giggle and they eventually leave. We head for dinner and we sit down. "Tom.... you could have anyone why me?" asked Clara. "I quite like your personality and you understand me so your stuck with me" said Tom. "Oh wow, I could say the same for you" said Clara. The meal was amazing and when drive home. Tom parks and stops me from getting out. "Will you be my girlfriend? Even after one date" asked Tom. "I'd love too but slowly, like still dates" said Clara. Tom smiles and kisses my cheek. We go inside and say bye to Dom and Nikki. Daisy is in bed and she is knackered, apparently.

Is Lucas Destined to Die in the New World?
Lucas imagined himself doing grander things in life; after all, he put in his own blood, sweat, and tears, and got himself a master's degree in English. Maybe he'd be the next best-selling author, or maybe the most popular late night TV show host. However, life didn't give him anything more than a management position at the local burger joint. Day in and day out, he flipped burgers, swept floors, and made weekly schedules that his employees ignored. All he had known for the past five years of his life was pure misery. Then after one night of drunken revelry, he found himself in an unfamiliar world, but he knew all the gimmicks. He knew these stories had quirks he could manipulate- he could put all his stats into magic and become the best wizard in the world, or he could dump all his stats into strength and become a veritable warrior. But once again, just like Earth, this new world seemed to have different plans for him. Instead, he was given a luck stat of 0 and a skill that forced him into danger where there should have been none. Why is this nerdy, magical paradise trying to kill him? Content warnings are there to give me some creative legroom later. There's not an excess of any gruesome content in the story, and what is there is tastefully sprinkled in. This is a LitRPG. Updates are twice a week on Mon/Fri plus some extras here and there.
