《Down The Line》~DTL.14~

I went over to Aaliyah's to visit Kamryn after her accident. I bought her favorite foods and toys to help comfort her. Aaliyah was missing work for a couple days just to look after her.
"Miracle" Aaliyah said covering her mouth in shock as she looked at her phone.
"What" I said confused
She took a deep breath and showed me a recent shaderoom post about Jalen
Liked by , and and , and 12,796 others
Jalen Johnson ex Toya Benette . claims to be impregnated by the basketball star.
Wow. Shake my head, niggas ain't shit.
Ain't not truth to this. ShadeRoom is full of rumors.
whats going on girly? Can't keep a good eye on your mans.
Eww I don't even like Toya Benette this better not be true.
🤰🏽🤫😏
Lmfao. I don't believe it she's just another hoe wanting to exploit these basketball players for money. 💸 Bye honey find a job.
I read down the post and comments and couldn't believe it. I could feel tears streaming down my face.
"It's probably not even true Mir. You know how these rumors be" Aaliyah tried to reassure me.
I quickly wiped the tears from my eyes "It better be for Jalens sake cause if it is were over"
I got up from my seat "I gotta go and figure this out. Tell Kamryn I said bye and love her" I said before walking out the door.
I went straight to Jalens house and waited for him. He had a game tonight and I was suppose to attend but I didn't want to face the media causing more rumors about our relationship.
"Babe" Jalen called echoing through his big house.
"In here" I said from the kitchen.
He smiled when he got into the kitchen "Hey beautiful" he kissed my cheek and I slightly swerved him.
He chuckled in confusion "What was that about? Wassup?" He asked.
I crossed my arms "Have you seriously not been on instagram today"
He shook his head while taking a gulp of Gatorade "Nah you know me, on game day ion like being on that shit. Why?"
I opened my phone and went to ShadeRooms post about Jalen. He took my phone and read over it while I waited for his response.
"Mir" He said sounding guilty.
My face dropped "Mir what? Who is this chick. Is she your ex" I asked while snatching my phone out his hand.
He huffed "Yea she my ex" I rolled my eyes "She a girl I dated when I first started out"
I glared my arms "Okay but this timeline ain't making sense. If she a ex from years ago why she popping up now"
He looked down "I mean I saw her like a month ago." He said lowly.
"Speak up nigga." I asked while my voice got louder.

He ran his hands over his face "It was the night we was fighting and you slept over at your place" I scuffed and shook my head and walked off into the living room.
He chased after me "Miracle..Miracle" he turned me around to face him. "Nothing happened I swear. We talked that was it"
I looked at him like he was stupid "So you expect me to believe you met your ex, and all y'all did was talk. Ain't kiss, didn't have sex nothing but she claim she pregnant by you" I poked his chest.
He stood there quiet. "I mean do you even believe that bull shit." He still ain't say nothing "Come on can you honestly tell me that any of that shit sounds logical Jalen" I felt a tear run down my face.
He pulled me closer to him "Miracle you gotta trust me man. Nothing happened. I ain't touch that girl. She's lying" he pleaded.
I cried "I want to Jay I really do, but what you expect me to do. This girl pops up and say she pregnant. And now you telling me you saw her the day before you told me you loved me for the first time."
"Miracle she's lying baby I promise. You gotta believe me" He said with a tear going down his face.
I wiped his face "I need time to figure this out and as your publicist I have to make sure your reputation is okay" I broke from his grip.
He stood behind me shaking his head while I grabbed my phone and other things so I could leave. I walked to the door while he followed me. "I love you Mir" he turned to me.
I slightly smiled and kissed his cheek "I love you too Jalen"
I really hope that this isn't true. I mean I love Jalen but I couldn't live with myself if I let myself be with him while he raised another women's child. I would never let myself do that no matter how much I loved him.
I was at home arguing with Maurice, I had his phone and caught him talking to one of my ex friends and flirting with her.
"Nobody was flirting with her Ariana so quit tripping" He said while plopping on my head.
I stood over him "Nah nigga. You a dummy" I said while flicking his head.
He stood up immediately making me back up "First of all don't stand over me and second don't be putting your hands on me"
I rolled my eyes and turned around "You a cheater man."
He turned me around forcefully "If I wanted to cheat on you, I would've done it already trust"
I snatched my arm away and pushed him "Why the hell would you tell me that nigga. Are you crazy" I said loudly.

"Ariana nobody is cheating on you, so just shut the fuck up already"
"Why would you be texting her anyways, when you know I don't even fuck with her." I yelled back.
"Read the messages dumb shit cause I wasn't even flirting with her I was defending your stupid ass. So get out my face" he said while pulling his phone out his pocket and tossing it at me to read the messages.

I immediately felt bad and stupid at the same time. "Right" He said sarcastically.
I handed him back his phone "Well Whatever" I said with a attitude to not admit I was wrong.
He pulled me on to his lap "You so damn hard headed. You know I would never even talk to another girl while, I'm with you so get that out ya head"
I smiled and buried my head in his neck "I'm sorry" he pulled me back up by my chin "Whatchu say" He smiled showing his braces.
I smiled "I said I was sorry Maurice dame" he laughed and kissed my lips. "I still love you thoe. Hard headed and all"
I stared at him and pecked his lips "I love you too"
Aaliyah and Kamryn were over to see Kamryns room that I finally finalized. I put a rush on ever since I got back from New York.
"You like it mooch" I asked her while she was in my arms.
She smiled big "I love it. Thank you" she said politely.
"We're gonna go shopping for toys when you can walk better okay"
She nodded her head "Lul spoiled brat" Aaliyah said in the back.
"Mommy's jealous" Kamryn laughed. I poked her "Mommy is jealous ain't she. Say quit being jealous mommy"
"Quit being jealous mommy" she repeated me.
She shook her head "Nobody jealous of you little girl" she laughed.
"Mooch tell her daddy can spoil her if she act right" I winked at Aaliyah.
Aaliyah pointed her finger at Kamryn "Don't repeat your daddy." Kamryn cuddles into my chest.
"And don't tell her no dumb shit like that" She hit my arm causing me to laugh.
The doorbell rang and we all walked downstairs. I opened the door and it was Jalen and he looked distraught.
"Umm imma give y'all a minute" Aaliyah said. She held her arms out "Come on Kamryn let's go see your room." She smiled and Kamryn didn't want to go.
"Imma be up there in a minute. Promise" I told her and kissed her forehead. She went to Aaliyah. "Hey Jalen" Aaliyah smiled.
Jalen nodded his head "Wassup Liyah" he faked a smile.
"Come in" I waved him inside. He took a deep breath and walked in. We both sat on my fluffy couch.
"So wassup?" I asked. I had an idea of what he was going to talk about. I mean I did see the ShadeRoom post and I know how much stress he under.
"Man it's not true. Non of it I ain't have sex with her" Jalen pleaded.
"Jalen you my mans if something happened you can tell me bro-"
"No" he slightly yelled. "I'm being one hunnid when I say nothing happened. I mean she tried to kiss me but I wasn't with it and when I realized that, that what she was on I left."
"Walk me through what happened that night. Every damn detail." I told him while clasping my hand together.
"Hey Toya" I faked a smile and hugged her while walking into her place.
"Hey Jay." She returned the smile. "I have to say I was surprised when you hit me up"
We sat on her couch "So whatsup?"She asked. I ran my hands down my face "Man as you know I have a girlfriend"
She rolled her eyes "What?" I asked her confused.
She touched me seductively "I was kind of hoping you cane over to talk about us. Maybe rekindle something" she whispered in my ear.
I moved "No Toya definitely not, you cheated on me remember. I thought you could be my friend and we could talk."
"And we can we could be friends with benefits." She straddled my lap and tried kissing me.
I got up and shook my head "No Toya we can't I'm in a relationship. And unlike you I don't cheat"
I walked out her house and got in my car and went straight home. To think I thought we were friends.
"That's what happen man, that's it." I told Darius.
He shook his head "You gotta give her some head space but y'all gonna figure it out" he told me patting my back.
"Daddy" I heard Kamryn call. "Gotta go man duty calls but call me when y'all figure things out"
I got up and dapped him up "Fashoo man. Thank you" I nodded my head. He smiled and nodded his back and I left.

Adventurer Book II - Dawn of an Empire Short story prequel- The Lurking Lair: An Adventuer Series Short Story Summary for the LitRPG savvy reader: Looking for a LitRPG that is more tabletop traditional role playing game and less MMORPG? This is probably your cup of tea. Long term progression with a heavy slice of life element. Strong mix and inclusion of ancient Greek life, values, and myths. Hence, the world can be a bit more harsh and brutish than modern sensibilities. The system is tangible and knowable beyond the MC's insights. The MC is more of an everyman than someone specifically chosen for the experience. Author's Note: This is my debut novel. Up until this point, the only thing I have written of comparable length has been non-fiction and related to history. I am immensely grateful to all the folks who have given me feedback and helped me improve my writing.

Skinwalker / War Chief
A System Apocalypse Fan Fiction I started reading Litrpg about two years ago. I fell in love with Tao Wong's System Apocalypse series. He is an excellent writer and I loved his world building, but when the second series arc went elsewhere It kind of lost me a little. I wanted to create a little parallel world that was very familiar to his fans but skewed off in a different, darker direction. If you haven't read Tao's work, you're missing out! Look him up on Amazon and read The System Apocalypse. One of the best in the genre.
