《The Guy Next Door (COMPLETED)》Authors Note
Advertisement
There is a chapter after this, feel free to skip this note.
Okay guys sorry but this is not an update. I have to put this up properly before people start gathering and chasing after me with guns,( because apparently pitchforks won't do enough damage)
I am abandoning this book.
( lol Leave it hanging: I'm such a perv)
Sorry back to point. I was just having one of those ugh! moments with this book and I was in a hurry to go out which is why I just left it like that and I didn't even realise it until later and I actually face palmed myself.
The thing is that in this part of the book you're supposed to feel absolutely frustrated to the point where you want to be like I can't read this anymore and along the terms of what is wrong with her?
I always planned it to be like this, the first part focusing on the other characters AKA Jake and Alec, and Clara's personality being there to support their personalities more than hers and then towards the end It becomes more about her character development.
And unfortunately she's frustrating as eff because she kinda for the time being has to be, otherwise a lot of things won't make sense.
All of you are like go for Jake and (some of you are still TEAM Alec , yes!) stuff but you have to understand at this point it's not an option.
At all. (See how I mentioned at this point though?)
I mean literally guys there is no way in hell no matter how they feel about each other, that they can be together, because Jake is leaving her because of how he feels about her and him staying and being with her literally renders his feeling moot towards her. He wouldn't go if.....

You guys can fill in the blanks.
That doesn't mean there isn't a solution to the problem though. Basically what what mean to say that all of you guys want this happy ending now when right now at chapter 55 there is no hope either way neither Alec nor Jake.
That doesn't mean that it's not possible because because this because this book isnt over.
Clara on the other hand is stuck in this place where she can't differentiate between wether she actually loves Alec or wether she's way too scared to let him go because he's been this constant in her life that she doesn't have worth anyone except her grandmother.
At the same time like Rebecca said she's feeling helpless because she's just letting Jake go and doing nothing about it because she really can't.
And Alec he's going through his on stuff but more on that later.
I know a lot of you just want to skip to the happy ending but then it won't makes sense.
But this story is dragging way too much and it needs to end soon. Developing into this phase of hers means a lot more frustrating I can't read this book anymore just make them kiss and get it over with moments.
Sooo I've come up with an idea.
I'll be giving you guys two options but please remember that the ending for both options are the same and you guys may get what you want and you guys may not.
The first option.
1)I'm going to shorten it up but some characters introduced before and certain events aren't going to make sense. The main problem is that the time line will get screwed up pretty badly and certain things may make you go, wait how did that happen all of a sudden? Also you guys are going to get this fast forward version to the ending which will leave some of the character development out.

I'll try to fix all the plot holes this will leave but not much can be done about it since I'm going to have to stuff out. But on the bright side it will drag much lesser and you'll get your ending ASAP and you're phones will survive through this ordeal more or less intact.
Basically it won't drag as much.
I'm not going to tell you if the ending is necessarily happy though (yes, I know I'm evil)
2)This is going to go the way I planned previously but that means at least another ten ish chapters (I can't give you a guarantee that it won't be more because I have really crappy habit of getting carried away but the way it's planned it should be around that many)
It will have a lot of God Clara I just feel like killing you, Jake is such a noob, Alec needs to die and dammit I wish I had insurance on my phone because I kinda broke it when I chucked it on the wall, type of moments which will frustrate the hell out of you.
This option is all angst, drama, angst more drama as compared to the other one which is clipped up but it will be a fuller and better plot hopefully you'll understand the characters especially Clara better (lol I don't know how much better you guys can take) and won't leave you like huh how did that happen all of a sudden? It will have more "moments" but this will drag with her current I can't do anything so I'm just going to sit around wait for everything to get screwed even further.
There is a very clear defining break point to Clara's character that all of this will make sense and I feel this will describe it better but you guys are going to have bare through this Clara and ninety percent of the time you will be like what the eff are you doing with your life?
So it's all up to you guys.
In both options I cannot promise that it will end the way all you guys want, it just might though.
I can't promise I won't accidentally kill Clara like oops sorry the machete just slipped from Michella's hand.
Clara:*glares* Jeez thanks.
Author: I try my best.
Clara: well it's not my fault that you've made me so whiny. I'm totally awesome in real life.
Author: Whatever helps you sleep at night.
Rebecca: That would probably be a boy whose name coincidently happens to be Jake Henderson.
Author:*high fives* I see what you did there
Jake: I'm more like the kind who keeps you awake at night.
Author:*face palms* I really don't know why everyone is so crazy over you, honestly.
Rebecca:*clears throat and takes out a list*
Author:Holy crap how long is that? And how did you manage to fit that in your pocket?
Rebecca: I have my ways. Okay I'm starting from the bottom, Reason 10,123: He's-"
Author: Lol you should make Clara hear this, not me.
Rebecca:*whines* But she's still going to be totally dumb!
Clara: I'm right here you know?
Author:Nobody cares!
Anyway thank you guys so much for all the messages you sent, I was so moved! Again I'm so sorry for being such a bitch and not clearing things up!
Sorry though it's very short.
got
And Lol that's it. I can't give you guys a peek in to the main thing because.... Spoilers.
Next Update: Depends on whichever choice you guys pick but hopefully Sunday or Monday.

The Ruined Monks of Rothfield Monastery
Erin is the youngest member of the dark monks; a supernatural brotherhood whose ultimate mission is to improve the dire circumstances of poor, war-torn villages using powers unique to each member. Or so he was led to believe. Erin, like his brothers, does not age, and that is, unfortunately, the only trait he shares with them. He cannot charm or compel like Woodrow, he cannot cast illusions like Knox, he was not swift like Swithin, not powerful like Blake. He was barely an assistant to his dear brother Wilbur, with his herbology and alchemy. He was told to lie low and make himself scarce. That is what he did. The dark monks temporarily reside in abandoned monasteries scattered around the country, feeding the poor and healing the sick, nurturing the monastic lands until it was fertile enough to raise crops and rear animals. As the years passed, they would leave these reformed, repopulated, self-sustaining monasteries and venture froth to help the next settlement. Yet, after years of toiling and quiet servitude, Erin notices that people and the country itself are declining. The villagers look gaunt, the once-lush soil now barren and cracked. He begins to feel disheartened, thinking that their mission is proving futile. Still, their leader Blake is steadfast and charges onward, and lately has his eyes set on a certain monastery in a thick, thorned forest that seems to diminish, even nullify their powers. A thick forest that Erin somehow has a connection to. A thorned glade where an ethereal voice calls his name with one simple request along with a promise:Heal the land, child. Heal the land and I promise to give you sanctuary so long as you stay. I promise to nurture you as you nurture me. As Erin cultivates the land, the land, in turn, gifts all its caretakers with new, enhanced skillsets on top of their unique powers -- skills of protection, healing, and magic. Magic. Erin had long wished to see the world fill with it again. The people, regardless of common or noble blood, still believe that magic will enter this world again. Magic to bless the king like it did the Saints. Magic to dispel the miasma befouling the world. Magic to bring back the fae folk and their many forms. It is up to Erin to forge the many paths leading to a bright future; to build a prosperous paradise that welcomes all races and bloodlines, by mastering the rewards gained through agriculture, horticulture, and animal husbandry, smithing, crafting, and fishing. Erin may also find a lifelong friendship and romance with his neighbor, Claude, if he decides to pursue him, and may even join him in the military campaign outside the monastery. The darkness still lurks outside, after all, and the mastery of his skills, along with a few good friends, may finally be enough to turn the tide in their favor. Most of all, Erin wants to keep the vow he set for himself: to protect everyone and everything he loves until his dying breath.

Artemis
"Let them go, Dante." I whip my head to see a small boy standing the clearing with blonde hair and a green cloak hanging from shoulders. He isn't very tall however he holds his stance well. He doesn't seem to be more than Cassandra's age. Maybe 12 at most. I abruptly turn my head back hearing the man holding a sword to my throat chuckling with a sinister grin. "Oh, poor boy, what are you go to do about it?" The yellow teeth gleam as he begins stalking towards the boy who does not look the least bit fazed. I look around at the other men who are following the leader. I pull Cassandra tighter to my back as I take small steps back. I keep my eye trained on the men but also fear for the naive boy. "Do you really want to test me Dante?" He asks raising a single eyebrow. For a minute the men stop their movements. I see their hesitation for fear... Fear of what? I take the moment to stick Cassandra behind a nearby tree. She crouches down while I pull my sword out from its place. "How do you know my name?" The scoundrel raises his sword challenging towards the boy before taking a final step towards him. Then the unexpected happens. The young boy chuckles so darkly. It sounded almost... demonic. All the men instinctively raise their swords. "Oh Dante, I didn't know your name... but you know someone dear to me." "Spit it out boy!" The once grinning man is now looking around frantically. I continue my eyes scanning the small boy. He looks directly me and gives me a small nod before saying one word that caused all hell to breaks loose. "Artemis." Artemis is not an ordinary girl. She grew up in the wilderness after being shunned due to unique abilities and her different physical attributes. Blessed with an ability that scared others, she roams the wild with only her guarded one. That is until she stumbles into a situation that brings her in front of a prince.
