《Chasing the nerd ✓》Chapter 15|Noah
Advertisement
I reach the gate of her house and I hear a loud buzz as it swings open, letting me in the driveway.
What in the actual fuck?
Does this place really exists?
I mean come on now! In each side of the long driveway there is a huge garden with all kinds of flowers and trees. In fact I'm not sure it qualifies as a garden, it's more like a park. Yeah, let's just go with that. My jaw drops to the floor though when I face the huge mansion at the end.
Holy shit!
It's a marble miracle with a double red door on its center and endless huge large windows on each side, just above a dozen of shiny marble set of steps. A whistle escaped my lips involuntarily. I always thought that these kind of houses are only used for props at a Marvel movie featuring Iron man. Never thought that some people, other than fantasy characters, might actually live in a house like that.
I park the car and get out, leaning against the passenger's door looking mesmerized all around as I'm waiting for her. I do feel a bit of jealousy as I'm imagining that it would be nice to grow up in a place like this. Some people are just so damn lucky that isn't fair.
I sign and look up at the sky crossing my arms in front of me.
This is the first time after high school that I actually feel a little nervous for a date. If you can call this a date. I feel the electricity coursing through my veins. I'm just on edge waiting for her to screw up so I can put a stop on this farce and return to my normal, boring and comforting life. No surprises, no crazy women!

Yeah, I'm almost certain that's the reason. Although if I'm being completely honest a part of me is hoping that this can actually go well.
Oh, damn her and her ways!
She is creeping in my mind in moments that she shouldn't be there and for the last couple of days I find myself thinking about her and that scares me!
I think she messed up my head, I don't know how maybe she has superpowers but she is dangerous.
"Are you having a stroke?" I jump a little startled when she speaks. I was so focused on my thoughts that I hadn't noticed her at all. She chuckles at my reaction and tags her hair behind her ear smiling widely. I take a good look at her and might be the light, might be the vulnerability of the moment or even her undeniable natural charisma but she looks like an anger.
She is wearing white tight jeans with a flowy light blue tank top along with white Stan Smith's. She has some light makeup on and her hair are down in loose waves reaching just below her chest. As for her eyes are sparkling with humor as she looks at me.
"Like what you see?' she says wiggling her eyebrows.
I clear my throat uncomfortably and straighten my glasses looking at the ground.
"Not something I never saw before. Ready?" I say and circle the car to get in the driver's seat.
She gets in as well and fasten her seatbelt at once.
"Not a great thing to say on a first date. You wanna try again?" she says provoking me. I think about that for a moment and she is right. I turn to look at her before i start the car and take i deep breath.

"You look really nice today." I say and surprisingly I mean it.
She smiles again, a shy smile, and pushes her hair back.
"Thank you. You too." she says and her cheeks are now a vivid pink color. Wow! Who would have thought that she blushes!
I nod my head and try to hide the involuntary smirk that is forming in my face. See, that would invite more question and I don't think I'm ready to be interrogated about the things I think or, dare I say, feel right now.
"So, you wanna catch me up? I'm guessing this movie is part of a series, not a stand-alone, right?" she says after a while of deafening silence and although it was quiet the ambiance was full of electricity. Being this close to her made my body temperature rise, thinking that the shirt above my T-shirt was a bad choice.
"You seriously never saw any Avengers movies?"
"Um, no. I know who they supposed to be, I know Thor is hot but other than that i don't have a clue as to what they're going." she says and i shake my head in disappointment.
"They are a bunch of superheroes dealing with aliens or evil organizations who try to destroy the humanity, more or less. In the previous movie an alien guy, Thanos..."
"The purple freak from your shirt?" she asks interrupting me.
"That's right. So that guy wiped half the population of earth to make the planet more functional." i say trying to explain with a simple way something as complicated as the marvel universe.
"He killed billions of people?" she asks shocked and I laugh. I can see her looking at me confused.
"No, he just wiped them. Turned them into dust using a golden glove with stones stuck on it. The infinity stones are, let's say, magical. So he found them, put them together and with a snap of his fingers they just disappeared."
"I have a question." she said fidgeting in her seat.
"Shoot."
"Wouldn't be wise to have a more private screening? You know, so i won't disturb others with my constant questions." the moment the words fell of her lips i started seeing red. I pulled off on the spot.
"What did you do?" I said, well I growled if I want to be exact, between my teeth feeling angry as shit. I swear to God if she did this I'm turning around right now. That's exactly the screw-up thing i expected her to do, flaunt her money around, arranging things I'm not comfortable with and what feels like a pay-off.
"Thankfully nothing. I thought about it but thinking how stubborn you are I changed my mind pretty quickly. But I had to ask." she says throwing her hands in the air like in surrender still smiling.
"Good. You made the right choice." I say firmly starting the car again.

Good Guy Necromancer
Necromancers are murderous, repulsive, utterly ungodly creatures. And then there's Jerry. Jerry is a novice necromancer who treats his undead warmly, seeks to befriend people instead of harvest their bodies, and doesn't mind cracking a skull or two when needed. He genuinely is a good guy—too bad nobody believes him. Jerry tries to settle down, wanting nothing but a peaceful life for him and his undead—and, when that doesn't quite work out, he sets out to adventure. He will make friends, each unique in their own way, and together, they will travel through a variety of striking environments; from a tiny village, to the land of the dead, to a jolly archipelago, to a kingdom on a beanstalk. To save a world that shuns him, Jerry must stand against a large organization of arrogant, mighty wizards. He strives to become stronger while maintaining his kindness, only to realize that, maybe, gentle hearts make the greatest necromancers. This is the story of a delightful man in a harsh world—full of warmth, action, and wise-cracking bone puns. Chapters are usually 2-3k words, and updates are 3/week: Mon, Wed, Fri. If you're looking for another fun, action-packed adventure, check out Cultivator vs. System by yours truly, available on Kindle, KU, and Audible. But read Good Guy Necromancer first.

The Adventurer's Guild(master)
In a world of adventure, magic, and kingdoms, only one man can keep it all from falling apart. As much as he wished that wasn't the case. This is the story of the man who became the guild master of the most prestigious adventurer's guild in the kingdom, and then came to completely regret that decision, as he is forced to keep the peace, file paperwork, and babysit adventurers. The life of a guild master is not as great as it once seemed. Note: The prologue is an extended -probably should have not took it that far- joke and is completely skippable from the rest of the series. This is my first work on this website, or on any website to be honest, so criticism is more than welcome. Feel free to leave comments on any chapter, not just the latest one.

Pocket Dungeon Lite
Based on the Pocket Dungeon original novel made by Stuckin (I asked for his permission beforehand). I do not know if this could count as a fanfiction as I made up many elements on the go so, for now, I will list this as an original but if Stuckin-sama would like me to change it I will be fine with doing so. This is somewhat of a self-insert but I made sure not to make the MC to OP. Also, the creator of the cover is Vurguy I tried to contact him to ask for permission but couldn't due to technical issues please go support him on Deviant Art and I don't own the picture so if he wants me to take it down than I am completely okay with doing so. As I am an improving author, I am glad to receive any constructive criticism or critical review I just hope that everyone will give me a chance before they yell at me for something or at least tell me what made them angry so I know what the issue is and can figure out how to deal with it. For now, my schedule is 1-2 chapters a week and if I am busy with either work or school 1-3 chapters every 2 weeks. I expect a bunch of chapters at the beginning around 5 or so and for me to continue from there. I will try my best to keep some chapters in storage for any time where I can't write for whatever reason. I will continue to change this part of the synopsis if anything changes in my update schedule. - From a thoughtful Author Pocket Dungeon is a widespread interstellar game that has captivated the attention of many races and civilizations. Nowadays in the 2300s anyone not living under a rock would grow up with a dungeon and learn to manage it over time as they make mistakes along the way. But as all things go there is always an exception and this exception can be found in Nadezhda Ledopad who had an overprotective family that didn't let him interact with anything but those they deemed worthy and safe. This overprotectiveness caused them to forbid him from gaining a pocket dungeon as they knew with his intelligence and specialties in certain fields he would become a strong dungeon master, quickly. This was something his family was very much against as they knew that his competitiveness and duty to maintain the Ledopad family's reputation would push him to win in the competitions that he would inevitably get invited too. This all changed when Nadezh graduated high school and moved to the Celestial Plane capital star as a Prodigal student in planetary conservation (major) and revival of species through DNA transferal (minor). His brother in all but blood Tet schemed to get him into Pocket Dungeons when they got there as no one would keep Nadezh from playing. Nadezh excited to join his peers in this famous game looked forward to doing so. But with this one decision, many futures changed and the Fates laughed as people of strong destinies meet together on this plane. Warning - This will probably contain LGBT+ relationships. You have been warned, I will not tolerate stupidity to the ninth degree in the comment section and I hope that people can be logical enough to GO AWAY if they don't like this kind of thing. If you don't feel comfortable with mature or explicit scenes I will put a warning in the chapters or parts with such and I just wanted all of you to know that this will be a long novel as with most novel I will write in the future so don't expect a deep romantic relationship anytime soon.
