《boxes - taron egerton.》Chapter 11 - Preparations
Advertisement
The next day went pretty fast. I went to school like usual but I actually did speak to Taron before the dinner. This was the first he didn't drive me to school because he had to go the airport with him family , Matty picked me up in the morning instead. I was surprised T didn't even text me or call me , I assumed he must've went back to sleep after got back from the airport also he must've been emotional drained since he barely sees his family.
My uni day went by pretty fast, today I mainly practiced my play with Matty and the rest of the cast. Lunch went by pretty fast and then I had two more hours of practicing the play. Matty wanted me to go over to his house and practice more but I was sure we have practiced enough today also I was quite tired and ready to take a long nap.
When I got home my apartment was empty as usual , well unless Taron would come over. Lilith was at her evening yoga classes , she loved yoga apparently it was soul freeing which I didn't really understand but whatever. I changed into some comfy clothes and went back into living room.
I laid down on the couch and actually fell asleep pretty quickly , I must've been really tired.
I woke up around 2 or 3 hours later to the sound of someone knocking on my door.
Of course it was Taron , I was very happy to see him , I actually missed him a little bit because I didn't see him in the morning and he didn't text me during the day.
He of course gave me a nice long warm hug and then entered my apartment.
"You uh..didn't text me today , everything alright?" I asked him out of curiosity.

"Yeah it's all good , I just fell asleep when I got back home I was very tired , I was helping my mother pack all night and eventually I ended packing up stuff by myself because my mum to sleep , so I didn't get much sleep" He sighed and sat down on the sofa.
"Oh I didn't know" I said and went into the kitchen and put on some tea.
While I was waiting for the water to boil Taron told me about his day and how the travel to the airport was , luckily he said it felt short and it was quite emotionally to see his family leave again. I felt bad for Taron , it must be hard to see your family from time to time.
I told him about my day and I told me that Matty drove me to school in the morning , T was quite shocked to hear that. He still didn't like Matty , he said he seemed a bit odd. But that's what Matty exactly was.
"So you ready for dinner?" He asked.
"Honestly I don't know" I chuckled. I didn't know if I was ready to meet even more famous people , I was still shook from the fact that I was friends with Taron well mostly that he even wanted to be friends with me.
"Why?" He asked , a concerned look on his face.
"I'm just not ready for the fame thing , I in fact know that we're definitely going to get papped as soon as we step a foot into that restaurant" I sighed. Taron of course embraced me.
"I'm sure everything will be alright" He said, I didn't want to say anything anymore , I just wanted him to hold me longer so I just nodded. And we sat like that for a couple minutes before I realised what time it was.

"SHIT! It's 5 already? I gotta go get ready!" I said and quickly stood and looked at Taron.
"Well I'm going in what I'm wearing right now" He said , he was wearing a white Elton John ,Benny and the jets t-shirt and black jeans. He was wearing a dark blue bomber jacket when he came in but he took it off and of course it wouldn't be Taron if he wasn't wearing some type of boots.
"Well I don't know what to wear" I complained walking into my room.
"Let me pick out something then" He said following me and sitting down on my bed.
"Well if you insist go on mister" I laughed and sat down on the opposite side of him, he stood up and starting going through my closet. He didn't have many options since I barely owned any dresses or skirts.
He eventually ended up picking out a black not too tight dress that was mid thigh length and a white denim jacket.
"What about this?" He asked smirking , I must admit it was a great outfit.
"Wow can I hire you as my personal dresser?" I laughed standing up and picking up the dress, I'm glad it wasn't too tight because I don't feel comfortable in tight things.
"No need to hire me , just call me" He said and sent a wink my way , I just laughed and poked his side with my elbow. He just stood there staring at me like an idiot.
"Do you mind going into the living room or do you want me to undress in front of you" I said with seriousness in my tone but I let a small laugh at the end.
"I wouldn't mind staying" He laughed , I just rolled my eyes and pushed him out of my room.
"No peeking" I said as I shut the door.
"I can't promise that" He shouted from behind it. I just laughed , he's been such a flirt lately I find it actually quite funny.
I put on the dress and the denim jacket and I decided to pair some plain white converse with that and I put on some mascara and red lipstick. I straightened my hair and took my purse and left my room. As soon as I stepped into the living room Tarons eyes were all over me.
"You look gorgeous , as always" He smiled. I just smiled and asked if we're ready to go. He nodded and we left my apartment. We got into Tarons car and drove off.

The Rocky Shore
This is a LitRPG series. Every story you read here takes place in the same virtual world, with the same rules and limitations. Characters will travel, explore vast and dangerous realms, overcome obstacles, meet one another, enter into conflicts with one another, forge alliances, make horrible mistakes, and occasionally just die. A technological singularity has been achieved, and humanity has been trapped in a virtual world by a super-intelligent, self-improving artificial intelligence. This program is not malicious at all. In fact, it desires nothing except the happiness and fulfillment of every human it has copied into itself. If its decisions seem strange to you, that's only because its reasoning is far beyond ours. It recognizes that humans cannot be happy without enemies to overcome and goals to achieve, as well as the possibility of failure and death. The world it has created may be heaven or hell, depending on the free choices of the people it contains. The non-player characters who live in this realm have no idea that they are part of a vast computer system. They seem real enough, but there is no way to tell if they are truly self-aware. Even the system that created them isn't certain. This is world in which all the things that humans are used to dealing with in the abstract: skills, talents, knowledge, reputation, social status, morality, even love, exist as readable statistics that players can see and interact with objectively. This has many curious and complex effects on how people perceive themselves and the world around them. A few quick notes on the system: -Death is permanent -The system interface can only be accessed at certain locations. -Magic of diverse kinds is available and useful, but is not a good substitute for skills, physicallity, or mental prowess. Non-magical characters are common and competitive. -There is no inventory system. Characters must physically carry everything they wish to have on their person. -Healing is slow and difficult. Magical Healing is all but unheard of. Protagonists: Raymond Garrison- A man in his late twenties who used to work as a forklift operator in Idaho. His path leads him to work as a mercenary, protecting a small community of humans and goblins from the Seelie Fae who wish to exterminate them. Patricia Chandler- A elderly British woman who arrives in this new world with her grandson Kyle and her granddaughter Elizabeth. Never having dealt with rpg game mechanics before, she is in for a rough time, but she is determined to keep her grandkids alive in a world full of danger and evil. Jamil Mesbah- An Egyptian woman who once worked as a technical writer. Her path leads into a vast and hostile forest, where she must master both her magical abilities and her survival skills in order to succeed. Enjoy your travels, friends.

8 159Shattered World: New Game +
Monsters have appeared and are attacking. The only hope for humanity are the gods who have come to help them. Granting their chosen the power and abilities to fight against the onslaught. Almost like a video game. Specifically, the video game Shattered Earth. A little too specifically like Shattered Earth? [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Some things about this story. This is a brutal world and a gory story, the gore is described. It is also NOT a power fantasy. This story depicts an Apocalypse, and humanities attempts to overcome it. There is more stuff to be noted that are different but those would be spoilers. Just know, if you are going into this expecting a litRPG power fantasy save the world story, you will not find it.
