《Friendly Sex {{ GeorgeNotFound }}》THIRTY-FIVE: irl
Advertisement
Astrid got out of her Uber, smiling at the driver and giving him thanks. For once she hadn't got out at George's flat, but at the corner shop at the end of his street. The last time she'd been there her eye had been drawn to a certain machine at the back.
At the time, when she begged George to get a slush with her, he'd said no. Complaining about getting a blue tongue before he streamed, she'd been distraught, seemingly over it after he offered to pay for their sweets but she'd never forgotten about it.
George wasn't streaming today, he'd streamed the week before and most probably wouldn't stream again until MCC in two days. So he had no excuse.
She was downright giddy as she pulled two of the largest plastic cups from the stack, salivating at the idea of the cold rush the drink would give her.
Filling one to the very top with blue raspberry, knowing full well that George would complain all night if his wasn't his favourite colour, and the other with red cherry. She loved how vibrant they were side by side, two completely different colours but they complemented each other so well.
She'd always only got one flavour, couldn't stand the colour of the mixed ice, the two colours were separated and that's how they should be. The purple slush that would come about twenty minutes later was not worth the mixed flavour.
Astrid almost danced down the street, her hands almost shaking in the cold weather. Despite April being right around the corner, and Spring halfway done, the English night breeze was hard to fight against.
Once she finally reached his door she was stuck, both hands full. She looked around, nobody in the street, her only choice was to kick the door... and so she did.

"Why did you kick the door?" Was a reasonable question from the dark-haired man, looking her up and down in confusion. The crazy smile on her face, both hands behind her back as she bobbed back and forth from foot to foot.
"My hands are full" her eyebrows jumping in excitement.
"With what..."
"Let me in and I'll tell you"
He finally moved out of the way, opening the door wider for her to slip passes, awkwardly turning so that he couldn't see behind her; the boy as confused as ever.
They stood and stared at each other. Astrid suddenly realised that with no hands she couldn't shred her coat or take off her shoes.
An unfortunate dilemma.
But George knew her well.
"You want me to go upstairs so you can hide it from me even longer?"
"That'd be great" a toothy smile made its way to her face as he laughed, slowly ascending the stairs with his head over his shoulder to stare her down one last time.
Once he was out of sight she placed the melting slushies on the floor, shoving her shoes in their spot and her coat on the rack before picking them up, almost running up the stairs.
Running until a shout stopped her.
"Don't trip!"
The sudden shout startled her, toes not quite gripping the step as she tripped up. Elbows hitting the steps above her as she, fantastically, held the slushies just high enough for them not to spill.
Fast footsteps ran to her aid before they stopped.
Astrid's eyes raised to see him staring down at her, a laugh in his throat that he just couldn't hold, he doubled over with a boisterous laugh. Clutching his stomach as he didn't even attempt to help her up.
"Are they-" he stopped to let out another cackle, "are they slushies?"

"Yeah..." she whispered, an overdramatic pout on her face as she picked herself up, "they were supposed to be a fun surprise"
"Well, they're the second best thing to happen tonight," he eyed her, humour still in his eyes, "if that helps"
"Shut up" she wittily replied, placing the plastic cups on his coffee table, cringing at the water rings that they'd leave. She really had to buy George some coasters.
They fell down to the couch, spread out as his laughter trailed off hand falling to her leg to rub it in comfort as she pushed it across his lap.
"Which ones mine?"
"Which do you think?" The corner of her mouth tugged slightly as he grabbed the blue one.
"You got cola?" He asked, sipping some up before taking the straw out to scoop up a bit with the spoon.
"No, it's cherry, red" she corrected, the colourblind boy nodded in understanding.
"Red and blue?" She nodded, "that makes purple right?"
"Yeah..." she spoke slowly, thinking of the nasty dark colour they'd make if he offered to split them.
"Then let's make purple" a smirk on his lips as they made eye contact.

8 445Our Chaoz; Our Reality (Completed)
Everyone has their own reasons, be it past events, personality or simply company. But most at some point divulge themselves into videogaming, be it for entertainment or more compettitive reasons. In this year and age there are many genres of gaming, one specific genre though still holds on tight to the ledge it was pushed to trying to pull itself back up. MMORPGs were once the top of everybody's list, adventure, combat, storytelling and endless grind in one single game. It was a different life for most, as if a parallel world to our own. You could be a knight indulging yourself in combat, a mage expertly crafting spells of mass destruction or creation. A ranger exploring the land and hunting down prey, an assassin completing contracts and hording the spoils. A troll scamming children out of their hard earned 10 gold and making more hardcore players rage quit for the day. Or something else. Kyle was a simple player, he always picked the strangest classes or jobs and his characters almost looked the same. He played for the combat, he played for the grind and he played for his guild but above all he played for the story. Kyle is a roleplayer, one who enjoys the simple parts of this virtual life. Whether his guild was starting a war or ending one he'd always have his drammatic entrence or exit, his decleration of annihalition or demand of surrender. After all that? He divulged himself in the game's story, the interaction with NPCS (Non Player Characters) and their advanced AI. He went through many questlines, many tales of heroics and many more adventurers of legend but one thing always remained true with his character. Kyle absolutely loved to the play the villain. But when game turns reality, what will he and his guild of twisted personalities do?

So, for the first time in his long life, he let a man live. Little did Qian Meng know that being benevolent also had its consequences. Someone wished the God of Thunder death and would do anything to make it happen, even drag others through the mud. Pulled together by circumstance, yet accused of heinous deeds, can they uncover the truth surrounding the murderous plot of their brethren? Weekly updates on Friday! This is a glacial-burn BL story without graphic romantic scenes. It focuses on the tragic fantasy plot of our two main male leads.
