《Skinny (Cameron Dallas fanfic)》28.

"Lex babe, it's time to go." Cam said from the other side of the door. I was just finishing getting ready.
We had left the hospital a few days ago after having to stay there for a week because of my sitches getting infected, but Ethan had to stay in the NICU until they knew he was going to a hundred percent be okay. Right now Cam and I were going to the store to get some paint and a crib for his nursery.
"Coming!" I yelled before grabbing a jacket and heading out.
"So what colors were you thinking?" Cam asked, once they were at the store and walking through the front entrance.
"Gray with little accents of yellow." I replied while walking over towards the painting supplies.
There was a huge wall of paint samples in every color you could imagine. From bright blues to dark greens there was just so many to choose from. But I already knew the colors I wanted. I've had this room planed out since I first found out I was pregnant. I wanted a medium gray wall with a yellow stripe going all around the room. The furniture would be a nice white color and there would be a big comfy chair in it.
"Are these colors okay Lex?" Cam asked, breaking me out of my thoughts.
He was holding up two samples; the exact shade of yellow and gray that I wanted.
"They're perfect." I smiled at him before walking off to the furniture section while he got the paint into the carriage.
After about another hour in the store I had all the furniture picked out and it was to be delivered to the apartment tomorrow around noon. As for right now me and Cam were at work painting the guest room which has now named the nursery. The gray was done so all we were doing now is painting on the yellow stripe that went around the whole room and we would be finished for today at least.

"Cam once we're done can we visit Ethan?" I asked, hopefully. Nash has been at the hospital with him all day and I feel kind of bad. But he insisted on it so we could get this done.
"Sure babe, I'm just about done here so let's get cleaned up and head out." He replied.
***
Two weeks later was when the doctor finally cleared Ethan to come home. He was breathing regularly now but the doctor said there is a high possibility that he will develop asthma which wasn't too bad. He's also surprisingly easy and sleeps through the whole night and doesn't seem to cry too much which we are both very grateful for.
"Hey babe." Came spoke into my ear as he turned to face me in bed, wrapping his around around my waist and pulling me close.
"Morning." I replied, letting out a little yawn.
Just then a little cry was heard which wasn't unusual considering it was right around the time they woke up every morning to feed and Change Ethan.
"I got it Lex. Go back to sleep." Cam instructed, slipping out of bed and making sure the covers were completely over me before heading out. Snuggling into the blanket I soon fell back to sleep.
"Lexi. Grier. Get. Up. Right. Now." I was woken up a little while later by someone jumping on the bed.
Opening my eyes I was met with none other than my stupid brother himself.
"What do you want now Nash?" I asked sitting up so he would stop jumping.
"Cam took Ethan to his moms so you and me are going out to lunch now get up and get ready." He demanded, I just rolled my eyes at him before flinging a pillow at his face but getting up anyway to get ready.
I got up and changed into a flowy maroon tank top and a pair of light wash jeans that were a bit snug and made me frown for a second before I heard Nash yelling at me to hurry up.

"Damn chill will you?" I muttered as I walked out of the closet to find Nash laying on the bed looking extremely bored.
"You were taking too long now let's go." He hopped off the bed and left while I went to put on some flip flops and grabbed my phone.
"So where are we going anyway?" I asked as Nash and I walked out of the building and towards his car.
"A place." He simply answered and by that I knew he wasn't going to tell me so it wasn't worth my time trying to get it out of him.
I settled for looking out the window for the drive and listening to the radio quietly in the background. The drive was only around 20 minutes when we pulled up to the airport?
"Nash? What are we doing here? I thought we were going to lunch." I asked extremely confused.
"We are. We just needed to make one quick stop." He responded, turning the car off and getting out.
As we walked in Nash ignored all my questions as the why we were here and continued toward the pick up area.
"Nash seriously who are we getting?" I whined.
"You'll see." He smirked down at me.
"Whatcha guys waiting for?" I heard an all too familiar voice speak up from behind us.
"Hayes!" I turned around and ran into his arms.
"Missed you Lex." He mumbled, hugging me equally as tight.
We heard someone clear their throat and broke apart.
"So you're not going to say hi to your brother? I see how it is." Nash scoffed.
"Shut up stupid I saw you last week when you came home. Now let's go eat I'm starving." Hayes shot back before walking towards the doors.
I laughed before following him to the car and we made our way towards Buffalo Wild Wings. The boys picked the restaurant and not lucky for us it was packed.
"I'll be back in a sec I just need to use the bathroom." I spoke to Nash before making my way over towards it.
To my surprise it was completely empty unlike the main restaurant part. Or at least it was until I was finished at started washing my hands and heard a nasty voice call from behind me.
"Lexi Grier?"
Cams POV
I had gotten back from my moms house with a sleeping Ethan in my arms to any empty apartment and an note explaining as to where they are. So throwing the diper bag on the couch I walked into the nursery and carefully placed Ethan in his crib and put on those little mittens so he couldn't scratch himself before making my way into Lexi and I's shared bedroom.
I turned on the baby monitor incase Ethan woke up then hopped into the bed. Turning to tv on I decided to kill sometime until they got back by watching a few shows on netflix. I guess I had less time than I thought because only about halfway through the third episode I could hear the three siblings come stumbling through the door. A few seconds later an anxious Lexi stepped into the room.
"You okay baby?" I asked, concerned about her as she joined me on the bed.
"Yeah.. Can you just-just hold me for right now?" She asked in a small voice.
"Course." I pulled her so she had her head on my chest.
I made a mental note to ask her about it again later because whatever it was it was clearly bothering her.

The Silver Mana - Book 1: Initiate
I used to be a healthy, young guy with a normal life - I had a career planned in professional soccer, a girlfriend, lots of hobbies, and loads of fun. Until the accident. Which changed my life. A few years later I had adjusted to my new reality, adjusted to being in a wheelchair, adjusted to having someone take care of me 24/7. And then the world changed. Old people and kids did not make it. And neither was I supposed to make it. But never count me out. If anything, I am tenacious. This new world was different. People could do magic. And there were monsters. And what about me? I had mana as well, silver mana. Which no one else seemed to have. The only problem was, I did not know what to do with it. Until I really needed to. Author's note: This is the rewrite of Silver Mana. The first bunch of chapters (until I will have caught up to level 2 of the dungeon) should be quite familiar to people that have read the original. There are some changes in content, but the story follows the original fairly closely for at least the first 150-200 pages. Most of the changes are in the writing, and some of the details of how things work. A few of the side characters get a bit more attention too. Some general comments to avoid disappointment: 1. The MC likes to swear. If you object to reading the word "fuck" at least once and usually multiple times each chapter don't read the book. "Fuck" is such a great, allencompassing word... fuck that; what the fuck?; fuck me! Fuck! one word, expressing so many nuances. And, frankly, the people I know that use fuck as a swear word.. they often use it a lot. 2. If you are looking for immediate progression, rapid advancement of the story, etc.... read another book. This one takes a bit. 3. I am NOT Pirateaba (who is writing The Wandering Inn) or anyone close to that level of productivity. If you expect to read 10k words every 3 days, or even just once a week... sorry. I've got a busy life. This is for fun, I have no patreon, paypal, anything, so I write when it is fun and however much is fun. Not more. And sometimes that turns out to be a decent amount, sometimes nothing. I have another book (Marrow) so that complicated things - basically I switch between the two whenever the muse strikes me.

Red Street Daybreak
August Samuel Hatch was born under an inauspicious pattern of stars. It's granted him what is widely considered the most unlucky of inconveniences: becoming host to a powerful but pernicious spirit that will act as his guide and protector--and one day end his life. Sairne is sworn to stand by August's side and, when the fancy strikes her, advise him, all in the service of atoning for a past life she can’t remember having committed a grave enough offense to earn her soul indentureship in the mortal realm. Bound by a celestial contract neither one can negotiate, their fates are all they've ever known. But in a city ruled by religious right and where magic runs deep as bedrock, their search for a missing friend leads them to a dark conspiracy that could transmute the very magic that binds them to their fates, and that might grant them the ultimate choice: do they save the city or save themselves? Cross-posted on Wattpad and Ao3. For fans of fantasy YA story beats if they starred adults instead, 1920s inspired setting, lots of banter, larger cast of characters, somewhat soft magic system. Completed, but being actively edited prior to posting! I'm the only captain on this ship, so mind any errors.
