《Shades Of Red | RaNnett》Part 9: Under the Tree
Advertisement
'Bye... Bennett.' 'I'll... be alright... Ra... zor...' 'Oh. Bennett go Good Hunter. Cathedral. Out.' 'Oh... okay...' Those were the last words we said before parting, I wonder why he wanted me to go there, probably to make me explain my cuts. *sigh* Typical Razor, always caring a little too much about others, and not letting them go until he's sure that they'll be 100% safe.
Can't believe I actually thought I had a chance with such a caring, loving, innocent, and perfect wolf boy. I really am oblivious. Knowing my luck, anyone who I might like would end up hating me. At least, Razor isn't leaving me, yet.
"BENNETT!" a pair of arms wrap me in a firm hug. "Ra- Razor, hi. Umm... could you like, not hug me that tight, its kinda hard to breathe and-" As he let go, a kid ran past us which took me by surprise and I started to fall.
My head was a grain of sand away from the floor when I was caught by Razor, we locked eyes for a moment, and I quickly turned my head around. "Thanks, Razor." My face started to heat up, 'Not the time, snap out of it,' I thought, trying to go back to reality.
"So, why did you wanna come here?" I asked trying to break the tension. Razor led me to a seat and asked, "Order?" I was shocked by this, as the wolf boy, he would normally avoid contact with others, what happened to him? "Razor?" "Yes?" "Do you have a... fever?" I was genuinely concerned, I put my palm on his forehead, checking if his temperature was normal, he was fine but I could swear I saw him blush.
"I'll do the ordering, Razor. The usual?" "O- okay." His voice trailed off at the end, he seemed s- sad? Disappointed? Yeah, he's acting weird. I got our food and placed it on our table, a plate of Matatsuke Meat Rolls for Razor, and a Sweet Madame for me. "Dig in," I said, and immediately Razor devours the meat rolls one by one. I let out a small chuckle before eating my own food.

It was a normal lunch together, just like the thousands upon thousands we'd had together. Razor led me out the Mondstadt gates, we passed by Timmy, and I had to remind Razor not to pounce on the pigeons, I'd told him many times but sometimes he forgets so it's best to be sure.
At nightfall, we were under the giant tree at Windrise, the crystalflies lit up the canopy of the tree, while the moonlight danced across the night sky. "You know, the Mondstadt lights still seem pretty, even from this distance." I turned my head to see a distracted and very much red Razor.
"Razor... are you-" "Bennett..." he cut me off, "Razor want tell something." "I'm listening," I replied, confused. But it became clear once he continued his words. He put one foot on the ground, and a knee on the floor, kneeling. He took out a piece of paper and showed it to me, the title read 'Colors', but what caught my attention was the section that read 'Red'.
"Bennett, Razor did homework, end up writing Bennett, make Razor realize, Razor very very very lucky Bennett friend, Razor like Bennett, more than friend, Razor... love Bennett. Can... Bennett and Razor... boyfriend?"
He gasped for air, he usually didn't talk much, while I was lost for words, I thought he was with Fischl, guess I shouldn't jump to conclusions. Tears formed in my eyes, I cried, I cried in happiness, but my thoughts flooded in.
'You love him, he loves you, go for it!' 'He'll end up leaving you anyway, your luck would ruin everything anyway.' 'He's perfect, why turn him down?' 'You don't deserve such a perfect person.' 'Shut up.'
"Razor..." tears continued to slowly roll off my chin, hitting the ground, "you... don't have to do this, faking that you love me, just so I can be happy." "But... Razor feelings, real. Razor real love Bennett." "R- Really?"

I suddenly felt lips meet mine, it felt great, the heat of my face and the heat of the moment encouraged me to go with it, and so... I did. I didn't pull back, I wanted it for so long, and I finally had it in my hands. Razor stopped, "Razor love, real."
He put his hands on mine, and time stopped. He slowly pulled me closer, staring at my eyes and I stared back. The wind lifted his long ash-grey hair, uncovering his face. His face looked beautiful when it reflected the dim moonlight, if only I had a Kamera.
He leaned in for another kiss, "Boyfriend?" "I would love to."

Domhain: A Modern Fantasy LitRPG
(Blurb) When Ardan, a teenage elf boy, is thrown into the world- his world, of distrust and tension, he wants only one thing. To live a normal life, get a job, make friends, even start a family. But either dumb luck or fate won't leave him alone. With the power of a game system and magic, he's determined to find out the reason he was picked, and what makes him special. Along the way, hopefully meeting new friends and learning some magic here and there. (Synopsis) Domhain - a world split between five nations and five unique magical gifts; home of elves, dwarves, goblins, trolls, and humans, each of them so different but in reality more alike than anyone would like to acknowledge. Twenty years ago, the humans, weakest of the five, secretly acquired powerful magic and set out for war. The united forces of the other nations stood no chance. Humanity prevailed, proving itself as the new leader of the modern world. Now, Domhain is at peace but tensions are rising again. The humans want more than their territory back. They want it all. And they want revenge. But this time, the elves hide a dark power, and will stop at nothing to wipe the humans off Domhain forever. War is inevitable. Thousands will die. And the power to stop it all falls into the hands of none other than a particularly tall fifteen-year-old elf orphan. Ever since he could remember, Ardan lived a normal, sheltered, life in an elven orphanage. On the day he's finally able to leave for good and start his independent life, something strange occurs. He is given a pill, a gift, that turns his life into a game with levels, quests, dungeons, and a... talking weapon? All of which are capable of transforming his body and the world around him. As if that weren’t enough, Ardan learns the orphanage has hidden natural magic from him, and the whole world is intertwined with it. More importantly, he, as an elf, has a particularly unique and powerful heritage. That heritage, along with the benefits of his new power makes him a target for the greed of many... With nothing but his friends and a incredibly smart sister, he is determined to find out what makes him so special. Who can he trust?

Prey No More
Imagine being given a second chance at life. Not only that but with a life you chose (sort of). This is exactly the situation that our character is in. He was once a Biology Graduate Student involved in a special program in Alaska studying Polar Bears. In an ironic twist of fate his life is ended by exactly that which he was trying to study. Now, in a new world, he refuses to be anything but the top of the food chain. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a story I began writing a year and a half ago and decided to shelf, I'm coming back to it now because I miss writing; however, I have not carved out any time specifically for this and, as of now, it will be something I do on the side for fun. Currently I have 9 chapters plus a prologue written; I'm going to be going through and editting it to be in a present tense (from past), as well as changing some of the story and grammar. Let me know what you think, and thanks for reading.

MAZE - The Endless Quest
As all kids do, Hera wanted to be an explorer. Sadly when she turned 18, she discovered that her stats and lack of skills made her fail the requirements to become one, and she went to work on a bookstore. That should have been the end of her story. But when she wins a lottery to have her level up, she discovers a hidden skill and a rare one at that. The system gave her dream back, and this time she is not letting it go. ############################## The story is about a world where game-like systems are the norm. Everyone has a level, status, and even skills are a common thing. If your stats are good, you can also become an explorer, someone that ventures inside a place called MAZE, a dungeon of sorts filled with monsters, creatures, and things that the natural world is missing, such as magic and demi-humans. The story follows Hera, a woman who wanted to be an explorer, but her status were too low to become one. One day she wins a raffle that allows her to level up for the first time giving her the chance to achieve her childhood dream. It's more about how things work and what you can do with them than about power or revenge. The rhythm might be a bit slow for some, but that is the idea. I want to give sort of a slice of life feeling to most of it.
