《Off Camera / A Treegan Love Story》New Beginnings

Two Weeks Later
It's early Sunday morning and I awake to the sound of Keegan snoring beside me. For the past few days we have been staying with his mom. Our friends and family haven't wanted us to go back to our homes yet, and to be honest we both felt a little scared too. I laugh and cover my ears with my pillow. "Keegs!" I turn to look at him. After a few minutes he wakes up. Yawning and stretching out his arms. I lean over and kiss him.
"How did you sleep?" He asks me.
"Pretty good. Until I heard you snoring!" I roll my eyes at him.
"Sorry. Bad habit." He pulls me close to him and we cuddle for a few minutes.
Dan jumps onto the bed and makes himself comfortable in between me and Keegan. I begin to scratch him behind the ears and he immediately starts to our.
"What do you want for breakfast today?" He asks me changing the subject.
"I'm cooking you breakfast. And your mom. She has been so nice to let us stay here. I'm going to miss her when we leave." For a minute we're silent just smiling at each other and then we decide to head downstairs.
Two hours later
I'm back in my room with Troian. We're cleaning it up and packing up some of our things.
"Where are we going after my mom's?" I ask Troian who is currently folding her clothes on my bed.
"I'm not so sure I feel comfortable being at my house alone. I sure don't want you staying alone." I say as I sit down on the bed.
It had been two weeks since that awful night and the police had charged Ali with breaking in. Although the fingerprints on the gun did not match her DNA or the guy who she was seeing. Me and Troian we're both worried there was some friend that she knew and had asked to do her dirty work for her.
Troian looks up for a moment. She looks like she's thinking.
"I was thinking about moving. It's been on my mind for a while. Before we started dating."
Wait. Is she asking me to move in with her?

"Are you...asking me to move in with you?"
Troian puts down her clothes and walks over to me. She takes my hand and looks at me sweetly.
"I am. I love you so much Keegan." She pulls me in for a hug and then we kiss for a few moments.
After we break apart I take a few moments to look at her. Really look at her. Her beautiful eyes sparkle as I look into them.
"Then it's settled." Troian says happily. "We'll start looking for a place!"
Two Months Later
Me and Keegan have settled in a neighbourhood outside of West Hollywood in a gated community. I'm standing outside telling our friends where to bring boxes and what rooms they have to go to.
I've just told Ashley and Tyler (who are now dating) to go to the kitchen with a couple boxes of dishes. All of a sudden someone covers my eyes with their hands. I start laughing. "Keegan." I say his name with a slightly annoyed tone in my voice.
"How do you know it's me?" He replies. He uncovers my eyes and I turn around to kiss him.
"You two don't have to try too hard to be adorable." Lucy says coming up to us. A happy Elvis running along side her with his tail wagging. Ian and Sasha are behind her carrying more boxes.
After they all head inside I stand beside Keegan for a couple minutes not wanting to let go of his hand.
"I was thinking...after the bedroom is all set up. We could try out the new bed." I whisper to him in a sexy voice.
"Yeah? I can't wait. Hand me some boxes! I want to finish moving in as fast as possible!" Keegan replies.
We both laugh and each grab a box before heading into the house. We enter our kitchen where most of our friends are currently putting dishes into cubbords. Outside in the backyard I notice my dogs happily running around. I put the box I was carrying down on the kitchen island and open it up. I remove some wine glasses and begin to put them away.

A few hours later
I'm in the master bedroom I have been setting up with Ian and Tyler. It took us a long time to get the bed set up and bring the furniture, clothes and decor in but as I'm standing with my arms crossed and looking around at everything I have to say we did a pretty good job! On both of the night tables beside the bed there is a picture of me and Troian. Just random selfies we took. One from our Toronto trip and one of us standing in front of the Hollywood sign.

"Well ladies. I'd say we did a pretty good job! Thanks for all your help!" I say as I stand in my living room with Ashley, Sasha, Lucy and Shay. We all take a seat on a couch. It doesn't take long for Keegan's cat Dan to jump up on my lap and start purring. Ever since we started dating, Dan had taken a real liking to me. My dog Charlie comes running over to me and sits looking up at me.
I reach down to pet him. "Don't worry boy. I haven't forgotten about you." I tell him petting him on the head.
For a few moments we all talk and admire how the house looks. All of a sudden we hear the guys coming down the stairs.
"Relax ladies." Tyler announces.
"Keegan is cooking tonight." Ian tells us with a smile.
"Oh is he?" I reply with a laugh.
I look at Sasha, Shay Lucy and Ashley and they all look impressed.
"What is chef Keegan cooking?" Ashley asks.
"You'll have to wait and see ladies." Keegan tells us.
Tyler heads over to the kitchen with Ian. He begins getting some drinks together and Ian grabs some snacks.
A few moments later there's a knock at the door. I answer it and find my friend Lulu and Shay's assistant Shannon standing there with Shay's dog Angel. I smile and give them both a hug. We head back to the living room. I find Shay cranking up the music and the girls are starting to dance.
I begin to dance with everyone. I don't know how long we're all dancing but finally Keegan calls everyone out to the back deck for dinner.
When we get outside there are turkey burgers, Caesar salad, smoked salmon and potatoe salad. It all looks so yummy!
I walk up to Keegan and put my arms around his waist and kiss him. He looks so handsome in a chef hat and apron.
"This looks delicious Keegan!" Sasha says as she grabs a plate and begins putting food onto it. Everyone else does the same and then finds a spot to sit. We let the dogs all run around in the back yard and play together.
The night moves along quickly and we all enjoy laughing and dancing. We eventually move inside as the night becomes cooler. I cuddle up to Keegan on the couch as I'm drinking a glass of white wine. We're all currently watching a movie on Netflix.
Keegan grabs a blanket off the back of the couch and wraps it around me. When the movie finally ends, everyone heads out for the night. We thank our friends for helping us with the move and head upstairs to our bedroom.
I'm pretty tired. It's been such a long day. I open the door to our bedroom a sleepy Troian in my arms. Her head is resting on my shoulder. She looks so cute when she sleeps. A lot of the time she smiles. I think it has to do with the fact that she gets to sleep with me by her side every night. I walk her over to our large canopy bed and gently lay her down in the bed. She wakes up and stretches her arms out. When her eyes focus on me she smiles.
"Hey." She whispers. I get in the bed beside her. I cuddle up to her and she turns around to look at me. "I'm so tired."
I reach up and tuck a piece of hair behind her ear smiling.
"I'm glad we have this house together Keegs." She tells me.
"Me too." I reply as I hold her close. For a few moments we just look at each other.
With everything that has happened in the past several weeks, I am beyond happy that I get to call her mine and that we now have our first house together. I never wanted to let Troian go and I would do everything to keep her safe. She is my world. She is my everything.

Cybernetic Dragon
Idea Seven, or Inter Dimensional Explorer Automaton Unit-7, has had a bit of an accident. Hijacking the egg of a dragon rather than its intended target of a bird egg, it isn't fully in control of its host brain. Rather the two, dragon and cybernetic AI interface, must work together to survive in a hostile world of magic, dungeons, beasts and adventurers. The AI must deal with being a machine from a world of science trying to carry out its mission of exploration, while the dragon, Rex, must deal with being a cyborg living with symbiotic nanotech that sets him apart from other dragons. What adventures await them? Author Note: I tagged this story GameLit because it contains concepts like levels, classes, and dungeon/beast cores. But, it isn't tagged LitRPG because no one has status screens, other than occasionally Idea Seven who likes to organize data into blue boxes. It isn't a natural function of the world to display level ups or skill ups with an announcer voice. I mention this to set expectations, because otherwise I feel like LitRPG fans might be disappointed by my lack of LitRPG elements while others might be turned off thinking I have a lot of LitRPG elements. I think that if you approach the story with an open mind you will appreciate the gradual way in which the main character learns and expands his understanding of how the world works, but the game mechanics aren't meant to take center stage to the actual story.
