《boxes - taron egerton.》Chapter 12 - Unpredictable night
Advertisement
When we arrived at the restaurant there was already a bunch of cars parked at the front , so I guessed that the rest were already here. Luckily I didn't see any paparazzi which was good.
"We aren't late are we?" I asked looking at Taron.
"No I don't think so , the others must've got here early" He said and got out of the car. Being the gentleman he is he came over to the other side and opened the door and helped me get out of the car.
We get entered the restaurant Taron told the waitress his name and she led us to the back of the restaurant , there was a giant table and a lot of familiar faces. All of which I've never met before.
Everyone got up and welcomed Taron while I just stood there awkwardly not knowing what to say or do.
"Hey guys so I would like you to introduce you to my best friend Ruby" Taron said and suddenly everyone was giving me a warm welcome. I just smiled and thanked everyone.
T and I sat down opposite each other, Channing Tatum and Pedro Pascal were on either side of me so I decided to make a small conversation before our food arrived, apparently here you didn't get to pick what you eat so it just goes by the chefs choice , which is kinda cool.
"So you and Taron?" Pedro asked me.
"What about us?" I asked.
"You guys dating?" He asked again.
"Uh no we're just friends" I laughed awkwardly.
"Oh alright it's just I thought you guys were because the way he looks at you" He laughed, the way he looks at me what?
"Wait how?" I asked again.
"Its just its like he's in love with you, do you not see it?" Pedro explained. Taron being in love with me ? No this is some kind of joke.

"I guess not" I answered and looked over at Taron , he was talking to Colin Firth. When he saw me looking at him he smiled at me and continued talking to Colin.
Could Taron really be in love with me? Impossible, we've only known each other for a couple months and I doubt Taron would love someone like me.
Soon enough our food arrived and it actually quite delicious, it was chicken with these like potato things and rice and vegetables. Throughout the whole dinner I could always see Taron looking or smiling at me like an idiot , he looked really cute though.
After everyone finished their food we all said our goodbyes and left the restaurant.
"Had fun tonight?" Taron asked as we sat down in his car.
"I did, it great talking to some new people" I smiled and he did too. He looked really good and I just wanted to kiss him at this moment , I wondered if he's thinking the same.
"Hey wanna crash at my place?" He asked , I just nodded and we drove off.
The drive was silent but we had some music playing in the backround. This whole thing kinda felt like a dream, I never knew it'd meet someone like Taron. He has made such an impact on my life , Lilith was right , ever since the moment I've met him I've been happier and I haven't been overthinking and worrying about things as much as I did before.
I looked over at him and just smiled.
We soon arrived at his house, got out of the car and went inside.
"Wanna watch a movie?" He asked.
"I'm quite tired , I think I'll just go to bed" I said and I could see his face expression change. He just nodded and opened his arms waiting for me to hug him.

I walked over and gave him a hug , I looked up at his eyes and I swear I saw something in them but I didn't know what it is.
We stood there for a couple of seconds before I felt Taron starting to lean in , was this the right moment?
I ignored every thought in my mind and leaned in too and soon enough I felt his lips hit mine. He was a good kisser damn.
I suddenly felt his hand sneak up my waist and grab me so I put my arms around his shoulders and we kissed for a good amount of time before one of us pulled away. Taron just stood there staring at me.
"You're so beautiful" He said and then picked me up and threw me over his shoulder , I squealed and asked what he was doing. He was walking towards the bedroom, was he really? Before I could think anything else he threw me down on the bed.
"Jeez Taron could you be anymore gentle" I laughed and I crashed my lips into his again, I could hear him moan into my mouth.
"You're so fucking beautiful you know that?" He pulled away and asked me.
"Taron you don't have to be nice just so you can have sex with me" I said.
"I'm not saying it because I'm being nice , I really mean it" He said and that's when I felt my heart beating very fast , did he really think that.
"You really think so?" I asked.
"Ruby since the moment I met you , I knew you were the most beautiful and kind girl I've ever met , you were always so nice and polite and I liked how you didn't throw yourself onto me like other girls would usually do , from the times we've spent together I slowly started to like you and I hoped that you did and when you kissed me that night I knew you were what I wanted. Even though you wanted us to be friends , I knew that you slightly liked me. Being friends with you was being the most difficult part because whenever I'd see you smile or laugh I always wanted to kiss you and tell you how much you mean to me and I'm so happy that we finally broke the ice , Ruby will you be my girlfriend?" He said , by now I was in tears, no one has ever said something like that to me. I was at loss of words so I just nodded and kissed him.
I think I'm in love with Taron Egerton.

Wow ya'll it finally happened.

Untitled Demon Book
After a few hundred boring years in Hell, Vivi’xidan is finally summoned to the mortal plane. Follow Vivi on the path of adventure and learning more about mortals (which are no less cunning than most demons), as Hell tries to follow them and ruin all the fun. It's an action adventure with fighting and magic and monster people. Note: This is my first time posting online anything I wrote. And English is not my native language. I try to do a few reviews before posting, but I'm still learning. If you find any errors or have constructive criticism, please tell me! I will be happy if you leave comments. Content warning information: this story includes lots of killing of different sentient beings, but it doesn't have explicit gore. I still put a content warning, because it's better to be safe than sorry. It also contains a few profane words here and there... No sex scenes or traumatic content, I'll try to keep it positive.

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
