《Into You》Chapter Ten

-3 weeks later : Friday, May 8th, 2014-
I was riding with Dominic to his mother's house. I was super nervous because I was meeting her.
But we aren't dating yet...
"Dominic?"
"Yeah?"
"I know we are going to see all your family but we aren't dating so how will they think of us?"
"It shouldn't matter what they think. As long as I care about you, you should just worry about that"
I smiled and nodded.
.
We walked to the backyard and everyone looked at us. I instantly got behind Dominic and blushed.
"Hey guys", he said, smiled.
"Hey Sage!", everyone yelled.
"This is my friend Leah", he moved out the way.
I waved and everyone waved at me while smiling. I smiled and we went to go get some food from the grill.
"You're so pretty", one of his cousins said.
"Thank you", I said, biting into my food.
.
"That was fun", I smiled.
"My mom loves you, she couldn't stop talking about you and your chubby cheecks.
I laughed and played with my hair a little.
"You want to go to the beach?"
"Sure"
.
We walked around on the beach with our shoes in our hands. It was always beautiful here in LA. So glad my parents decided to move here.
I do miss them tho. They moved back to Canada to be close to our family. I haven't seen them since I graduated college.
"What's wrong?"
"I miss my parents"
"They're in Canada?"
"Yeah, they moved back after I graduated college"
"We can go up there soon?"
"You forreal?", I looked at him.
"Sure, I wouldn't mind going to Canada"
I squealed and hugged him tight.
"Thank you thank you!"
"No problem", he hugged me back.
I pulled back a little and kissed him. He kissed back, rubbing my waist a little.

-Later that day-
I was on social media while sitting on Denise's couch. I raised my eyebrow at a post.
It was a picture of me and him kissing at the beach and another picture of him and his babymomma, his arm wrapped around her shoulder as she was looking at something in the store.
"Denise!"
She walked in the living room and looked at me. She sat beside me and showed her the post.
"Maybe you should talk to him about it first. You know how that shaderoom bullshit is"
"I don't know Denise. That picture doesn't look old"
I looked at the picture again.
"She's very pretty", I frowned a little.
"Hey don't let this get to you Leah"
I sighed and locked my phone.
.
I heard a knock on my door and I walked to it. I opened it and saw Dominic.
"What are you doing here?"
"I know you saw what the shaderoom posted"
"Yeah", I said, crossing my arms.
"I wanted to tell you. I'm not messing around with her, she is always taking care of our daugther a lot so I was taking her out"
"Okay", I nodded.
"I did kiss her once but that was all. I'm sorry", he rubbed his neck.
I was a little upset but we aren't together, not much I can do about it.
"Okay"
"Wait what?"
"I'm not about to freak out about it. We are not together"
"Oh", he frowned a little.
"To be honest, I lost a little trust in you. If we do start dating, how do I know you won't be messing around with her behind my back?"
"I'm not. I learned from cheating once and I felt super guilty about it"
"Mhm"
"Can I come in?"
"I don't know"
He picked me up and walked in.
"I hate you", I laughed.

Rising World
Vonn of Shieldpoint is an ambitious young inventor who, as far as his family knows, just survived a terrible accident. Really, he didn't. Instead a being known as the System has recruited the soul of a modern college student from our world, to fill in for him. Given a new life in a new body, the former human wants to make good use of it and fulfill the dreams of the one he's replacing. He's an Engineer in a world where that's a character class with explicit levels and stats. This world is just discovering the power of steam and clockwork and the occasional magic dungeon crystal, so Vonn is just in time to become a famous genius. He just needs to figure out what the gods actually want from him. (LitRPG Isekai with light but important stats, nonhuman MC. Cover art by Alexandra, https://www.deviantart.com/oktoberbeef .) This book is now available on Amazon! https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B09H5CQSX5 For legal reasons, I need to hide most of the content from Royal Road for now. The version for sale is revised and expanded anyway, including a rewritten opening. If the book does well, that's encouragement to write more of it soon! Reviews are welcome too. As noted in the afterward, it's been fun and useful to share this work with all of you here as I worked on it. Update 2022/2/22: Wow, it did do well! Thanks to all who read, commented, bought, and/or spread the word. Right now I'm working on a side-story about character Selen, and posting that starting yesterday. I do plan to do a true sequel this year, yet.
8 69The Apocalypse Begins with the Strange
Lev and his best friend Jameson are thrust into a world that seems stranger than any other. The monsters seem weird, the blue boxes even weirder, and the actual living God's among men seem even stranger. Meanwhile, all of New York City has seemingly disappeared and also really crappy grammar and weird weird metaphors. Have fun :)
8 136Aurelion
Aurelion is like any other world, created by a god. Currently, Aurelion is a world full of different species of creatures. A world full of magic and battles, with hidden secrets and unknown elements than meets the eye. A world that doesn't have much technology. Roland is a fighter that specialized in short dagger close quarters combat and short range fighting. He is trained in the art of speed and stealth. This is his adventure in the world of Aurelion as he meets friends, team up, fight monsters and reveal the deepest secrets of the world. IMPORTANT : The beginning chapters are extremely messy as those are just what I began with. I don't plan on updating them in the time being --- I'm just someone who enjoys writing. I would like to listen to suggestions and opinions of my readers of the story to improve myself further! For now, please enjoy the story. I'm grateful for every opinion and support I receive!
8 116Arca Archa
New chapter weekly. In the year 2100, later to be renamed 1 AR, the world's first stable rift finally opened. It permanently connected Earth with Arca Archa, the mythical otherworld where the basis of all our myths, legends, and folklore once stemmed from. However, tragedy soon struck the world following this historic union as the Russian Great rift Outbreak event brought about a catastrophic loss of life and left the majority of the country covered in ashes. As if that was not already enough, in the aftermath of this incident, brand new and never before seen rift events began to spring up all over the world. These rifts would oftentime connect to the many dangerous and hazardous locations of Arca Archa, rife with perils that threatened the everyday peace of society. This led to the united nations of the world's adaptation of the guild system of the Arcanians and the subsequent immigration of their people in an effort to combat, mitigate, and control these events. Now, over two decades later, Edmond lives alone in this post rift era where he has to regularly deal with the consequences and fallout of these two worlds now intertwined.
8 132Revenant
Everyone dies. Not everyone gets back up again afterward. The Deep Paths are a cursed place, meant for those similarly cursed souls whom the gods themselves denied the sweet release of death. Revenants haunt the underworld, wielding forbidden powers and often consuming those who lack the strength to join them. At least, that's the story that parents teach their kids up on the surface. Reshid can't remember what he might have done to deserve such a fate, but he learns quickly that there is more to undeath than the gods and their faithful preach to the living. Revenants have a unique connection to essential magics that allows them to develop their powers in extremely diverse ways. Wherever there is power, though, there are those seeking to wield it, whether they be governments and gods from above, or mythical elder races from below.
