《Best Friends With Benefits & After The Benefits End》Best Friends With Benefits - Part 22

*Liv POV*
I walked through the crowds of drunken people, not knowing where I was going or what I was actually doing. I could hear the music blasting away, everyone was having a great time.
“Hey ” I heard someone shout but I ignored them, then I felt someone’s hand on my shoulder.
I turned around to be greeted by a gorgeous, blue eyed boy.
“Hii” I grin
“You look lost darling” he smiled
“Na, I’m just wandering around”
“Why?”
“Was bored with my friends” I giggle
“Fancy hanging with me and my boys for a while?”
“Sure” I smiled. I wasn’t too drunk yet and I was single right?
I just wanted to have some fun and forget about the pain I was feeling towards my best friend right now.
“What’s your name gorgeous?” he asked me
“Liv, yours?”
“Beautiful name, I’m Alex”
“Nice to meet you Alex”
“Pleasure is all mine , now come meet my boys”
He took my hand in his as we walked over to a group of about ten lads all sat round a tiny fire drinking beers and smoking pot.
“Who’s this Alex?” One lad shouts
“This is Liv” he smiles “Liv meet the boys”
“Hey” I smile
“Hey gorgeous” A dark haired lad grinned at me, looking me up and down. Making me feel slightly uncomfortable.
“Can I get you a drink ?” Alex asked me
“Please”
After about an hour I was very drunk. I was giggling and having a good time with the lads, I could feel my phone vibrating in my shorts pocket but I ignored it. I was having a good time, and Dan wasn’t going to ruin it for me.
“You want some?” The dark haired lad asked me, his name was Brian. I looked at the spliff in his hand and shook my head.
“You sure ?” he asked again and I nodded
“You ever done pot before?”
“Nope” I giggle
“Come on, it won’t kill you” he grinned passing me the joint.
“Okay then”
“Okay inhale into your lungs, not into your mouth, leave it there for a couple of seconds then exhale”

I did as I was told but burst out coughing the first time I took it.
“Okay , I said inhale into your lungs not your mouth” Brian laughs at me and I nod before taking a couple more drags of it.
This time I did it right and I couldnt stop laughing, it was gone straight to my head.
“Ahh she’s a giggler” Alex laughed
“I’m a what?” I laugh
“A giggler. Some people get angry on it, some get the munchies or paranoid. Everyone reacts differently…you giggle.”
“Ahh right” I giggle again
“Keep this for later” he winked at me, handing me another spiff. I placed it in my pocket before taking another swig of my beer.
Alex had his arm around me and kept kissing me every once in a while. They were nice but they were drunken and meaningless. I missed Dan’s kisses...I know I shouldn’t. He thinks im a slag but his kisses were perfect.
I was talking to Brian about Dan when he pushed his lips onto mine. “What do you think you’re doing?” I ask him pushing him off me.
“Don’t lead me on missy” he smirked
“I’m not”
“Whatever” he moaned, leaving me sat there uncomfortable.
“I’m gona go back to my friends. They’ll be wondering where I am” I smile standing up “Lovely chatting with you boys”
“Nice meeting you too ” They all smiled
“I’ll walk you back , it’s late” Alex smiles standing up
“Thanks”
He took my hand in his and I tried to remember where our tent was.
“So you single ?” Alex asked me
“Err kinda. Me and my boyfriend are on a break at the moment”
“Oh right! Just that I like you”
“I like you to.” I smile and he kisses me. I pulled away giggling before wandering back to where Evie, Luke and Dan were sat. I didnt really like him but it’s not like I could say it to his face after chatting to him and drinking his beer all night.
As soon as I wandered over with Alex, Dan shot up of his chair and over to me.

“Where the hell have you been?” he shouts at me
“None of your business” I reply walking over to Evie.

*Dan POV*
“What’s up with you and Liv?” Luke asked me after Liv had walked off, “You’ve hardly spoken all evening?”
“We’ve had an argument that’s all” I sigh
“What about?” Evie asked
“Nothing really, it’s stupid” I hated that I couldn’t tell my best friends what was really was wrong. I know I told Liv it was just friends with benefits, no feelings. But they were here, deep rooted feelings for my best friend and I couldnt do anything about them. And now she thinks that I think she’s a slag...ahh why can’t love just be simple?
I grab another beer from the cooler and grab my phone out my pocket.
[Hey baby, hope your having an amazing time, can’t wait to see you when you get back! :) Love you Amy xxxx]
10 messages!
Fucking hell, give me some space woman. I didn’t bother reading them, they’d all say the same thing. ‘why aren’t you replying?’
‘I miss you’
‘Talk to me’
‘Why aren’t you talking to me ?’
Same shit different day with her.
I opened up a new message to Liv...I wanted to know where she was.
[, where are you? Please come back...we need to talk! xxx]
*No Reply*
I sat there twiddling my thumbs, drinking beer after beer as Evie and Luke cuddled up and kissed. I wanted to be able to do that with Liv but no...I had to come with with this stupid friends with benefits bollocks. Why not just come out with Liv...I think I like you. Shall we see how things go? But no Dan...you always have to make things difficult.
[, you’ve been a while. I’m worried, where are you? xxx]
*No Reply*
It had been a couple of hours since Liv had walked off now and I was seriously bored. Evie and Luke had prised their lips from on another just long enough for them to get another drink.
I must have text Liv about five times wondering where she was but she didnt reply. I even went looking for her a couple of times, but I couldn’t go very far though...my sense of direction is awful and knowing me...I’d end up getting lost.
Finally I saw her walking towards me holding hands with some lad.
Jealously surged through me instantly as I saw them together. She was meant to be with me.
I get up off my chair and walk towards her and this lad.
“Where the hell have you been?” I shout at her
“None of your business” she snapped at me before walking off in Evie’s direction, leaving the lad stood with me.
“You know if she’s single mate?’”This random lad asked me, stood there looking smug at Liv...I wasn’t having this.
“No she’s not”
“She said her and her boyfriend were on a break though”
“Well she’s with me mate. Sorry to burst your bubble”
“It’s cool, didn’t think a girl like her would be single” he sighed
I glanced over to where Liv was stood, talking to Luke and Evie. Laughing away, her smile sent tingles over my body.
“Mate take care of her yea”
“I will. Thanks for bringing her back”
“No problem” he smiled, “Better get back, enjoy your weekend”
“You to mate” I smile before he walks off
“Err what did you say to Alex? Why has he gone?” Liv snapped at me.
“I told him you had a boyfriend...which you do” I shouted back.
“Not at the moment I don’t. Who are you to tell him to leave?”
“Your best friend remember” I replied
“Yea right” she snapped at me before walking into the tent.
I looked at Evie and Luke who were stood there in silence, watching us argue. We had never argued this much before.
“Go sort things out with her” Evie says coming over to me.
“She’s well pissed off with me though”
“Dan you two are best friends, you will sort it out” she smiled at me
I sighed looking at her then at the tent. “Go” she whispered, placing her hand on my back.
I looked at Luke and he nodded, I nodded back before walking into the tent. Pausing at our bedroom section.

Essence Eater (A Super Progression Fantasy)
Gods. Demons. Aliens. Superheroes. Supervillains.Consume them all for power. Eighty years have passed since WW2, when Prime took to the skies and ended the war. No one knows what gave him his power, or what birthed the wave of supers that came after. Some claimed the nuclear bombs dropped in Japan cracked the barrier between Universes, allowing alien energies to enter the dimension. Others believed the wars finally triggered what humanity needed to reach a new stage of evolution. Daniel Das lives with his uncle in post-super London, the League of Hero's primary hub. He's spent all of his twenty-one years pushing himself, training in martial arts and studying supers, hoping he'll awaken his metagene and gain super powers. The cut-off age is close, but he hasn't yet awakened superpowers. Meanwhile, the League is steadily losing parts of the city to the growing villain factions. Daniel's uncle wishes to keep him away from the world of supers, but with the hot zones closing in, that's easier said than done. There are villains selling unregulated superpowers to gangs and dark days are on the horizon. Despite his limitations, there is no stopping Daniel. He is ravenous for power. If needed, he will ally with demons if they give him the power to protect his family and home. -------------------------------- This world building is heavily inspired by Worm and The Boys. It features dark, realistic storylines, corporation-funded heroes, and villains who aren't necessarily bad guys. The protagonist's powerset involves the crowd-favourite consuming enemies for power trope, too. The GameLit/LitRPG elements are super light and takes a while to kick in. The powercreep is slow as well since I don't enjoy overpowered protagonists. Chapters everyday until book 1 is complete. The schedule will change once I reach that point.

Path of the Ancients
When humans with the ability to control the fundamental particles of the universe with their minds were first discovered, the age of space travel began in earnest. Relativistic travel faster than the speed of light became possible and humanity moved out into the stars. When it was discovered that these Mages could be turned into effective weapons, humanity turned back to its oldest pastime of war. Hundreds of years later as humanity was on the brink of self-destruction, with its taste for war finally beginning to wane, a new organization was created. The Conclave was formed to regulate all Mage’s within the human colonies. While the colonies maintained their independence, the Conclave’s control over access to interstellar travel made them the de facto power amongst humanity. As the old saying goes, ‘Power Corrupts’, and many people were unhappy with the way the Conclave had been leveraging its authority, not the least of which were the Mages they controlled. One unregistered illegal Mage by the name of Tyrial had made it his life's mission to dismantle the Conclave at any cost. After spending decades working towards his goals alone, he realized he would need the aid of willing allies in his crusade. Tyrial would need all the help he could get learning to work with others, dealing with his own dark past, and handling unfamiliar feelings of romantic interest. Content Warning Note: They are there to cover my behind. I honestly hesitated to put them there at all but I figured better safe than sorry. Gore in particular barely applies and the sexual content amounts to light Cinemax style at best. But, at least now you can’t say I didn’t warn you. POSTED: Currently, this story is being posted to RoyalRoad and ScribbleHub. If you see this story posted anywhere else, please report it to the user "Tyrial" on either of the aforementioned sites. Thanks!

Whispers of Long Lost Voices
When all hope is gone, the crew of Hestia’s Hearth will make their own.What You Can Expect: * A Dark Yet Hopeful Universe* Kick Ass Found Families* Hero Moms* Dancers, Musicians and Space Shanties * Disabled MCs* Space Nazis Getting Punched in the Face (Sometimes Literally) * Folks who actually deal with trauma and griefThe Known Universe has been at peace for almost 100 years, but for most of Brenn’s life, trapped on an Earth controlled by the genetically superior Aesir Empire, it hasn’t felt like it. The Aesir took her peace, they took her parents, and then they took her wife. Three years after her wife’s murder, she’s found a new life light years away from Earth. A happy one, most days, with a best friend and captain who understands her, and a shared mission to undo some of the damage the Aesir have done to the Universe and offer relief to anyone who needs it. But the past has a way of rising again. A surprise rescue mission brings Brenn face to face with her wife; delirious, ill, and scarred from the bullets Brenn thought had killed her, but very much alive with a newborn at her breast. A newborn whose very existence could mean intergalactic war. Now Brenn must balance her wife’s delicate mental health, new motherhood, and her own complicated feelings while working with her Captain and their odd bunch of friends and allies to protect her tiny family from a small, but influential group within the Aesir government who will stop at nothing to take back Brenn’s wife and child. All the while, there are whispers of a greater and more ancient power coming to life. A power Brenn’s wife knows more about than she wants to let on. It’s a good thing Brenn is used to fighting. CW: Contains mildly graphic scenes of violence/death, topics of unwanted pregnancy/abortion, scientific experimentation on sapient beings, depression/suicide, grief, and trauma. The tone of this fiction is often dark and distinctly dystopian in lighter shades of Margaret Atwood, though where there is darkness there is always hope and light. On Hiatus Until September When the School Year Begins and Mom This story takes a considerable amount of time and mental energy to complete. I thought I had enough backlog and time to post it as a serial while COVID kept my child home from school, but it turns out while I can quickly write other pieces, I cannot produce the quality I need with this one at an acceptable rate. We'll resume in September when my days are much freer. Thank you for your patience and stay tuned for a different storytelling romp more suited for a serial platform in the meantime.
