I'm coming up, it might be my time
I'm taking off, you might say I'm all in, I'm all in
I'll send a postcard from the sky
♡ ────── ♡ ────── ♡
"I'm so excited!" Ellie says while she rings the doorbell.
"Remember when we get there stick together." I say.
I hear running inside and then the door swings open. "Jade don't forget your coat!" Red shouts.
"I'm already wearing it." She says going back inside to grab it.
When Jade comes back out she says, "Hey guys!"
"Hey." I say holding my hand up for a high five. She jumps up to reach my height and high fives my hand.
"I reached it this time!" She says smiling.
"Good job kiddo!" I say laughing.
Jade and Ellie start to catch up and head back to my car, while I wait for Red. A few moments later my girlfriend comes out with a smile on her face.
"Hi!" She says checking me out. Shut up.
"Hey." I say glancing at her necklace. "You're wearing it!"
She blushes and murmurs, "Ya I thought it looked nice with my outfit..."
"You look gorgeous as usual." I say grinning.
"Aww thanks." She says trying to hide a blush.
I chuckle and wrap my arms around her waist. "I'm going to kick your ass in bowling." I whisper.
"There's no way in hell that's happening." She says smirking. I lean down and brush my lips against hers and she pulls me closer.
"Stop making out!" I hear Jade shout.
"Can we please get there before tomorrow?" Ellie yells.
Scarlett separates from me and laughs. She quickly locks the door and I grab her hand.
"Do you guys want to do the arcade or bowling first?" I ask.

"Bowling!" All three of them say at the same time.
I laugh and we get in line for bowling shoes. Once we have our bowling shoes on and our lane is open, Ellie decides to bowl first.
I sit by Red and give her a small kiss. When we separate she murmurs, "I'm going to destroy you."
When she stands up I smirk and say, "We'll see about that." She turns around and I give her a slap on the butt.
She looks over at Jade and Ellie who aren't paying attention and says, "Fuck you."
"Just give me a time and place." I say smiling.
She flips me off and I blow her a kiss. When she let's go of the ball it rolls towards the pins and knocks down every single one.
"Top that!" She says beaming.
I walk up to the ball machine and grab my bowling ball. No I don't. I let go of the ball and watch it roll towards the pins.
It knocks down 6 pins and leaves a big space in the middle. When I bowl again it knocks down 3 pins down. I walk back to the couch and see Red smirking. "I'm just warming up." I say as an excuse.
She rolls her eyes and says, "Sure."
We watch Jade knock down 9 pins and she starts jumping up and down. "Good job!" Ellie says clapping.
An hour later we've finally reached the last frame of bowling. Red bowls and finishes off with a score of 145.
"You owe me ice cream!" Red says smirking.
"Not so fast Red. I still have to go." I say.
"There's no way you'll beat me." She says.
"Watch me." I say standing and walking up to the bowling lane. I slowly exhale and let go of the ball.

It knocks down 5 so I need to knock down at least 3 to win. I quickly grab the bowling ball and let it roll down the lane. It knocks down 4 pins and I jump with joy.
I turn around and see Red's jaw hanging open and Ellie and Jade clapping. I take a bow and walk towards Red. "You should close your mouth babe. You'll catch flies." I say smirking.
She gives me a playful glare and I cup her chin. "You owe me ice cream." I murmur before crashing my lips against hers.
"Let's go to the arcade!" Jade says running towards the arcade area. Ellie immediately follows and Red separates from me.
She sees me pout and gives me a quick peck. "Come on we have to buy the game cards!" She says taking my hand and dragging me to the machine. I definitely will.
After we pay for game cards we hand them to Ellie and Jade and they run to a random machine. I face Red and say, "So we have $20 to spend."
"What do you want to do first?" She asks looking around the arcade.
I think for a few moments and then say, "You."
Her head whips towards me and she gives me a small shove. "Stop." She says blushing with a smile.
"You're so cute." I say cupping her chin.
She tippy toes and gives me a light kiss. When she pulls away she says, "I want to play some skee ball!"
We walk towards the skee ball lanes and slide the card on the card reader. We start rolling the skee balls upward and in the end get 10 tickets. "Not bad!" Red says holding up her hand for a high five.
I high five her and we start walking around the arcade. It's not always about the tickets you know...
Ellie and Jade are talking about their prizes while we're walking back to the car to get some ice cream.
I park the car in front of the gas station and everyone exits the car. I hold the door open for everyone and Scarlett immediately orders ice cream in a cone.
"Scarlett can you buys us donuts?" Ellie asks.
"Of course!" She says giving them the cutest smile.
"Thank you!" They say at the same time.
Jade and Ellie smile at each other before they each grab a donut from the tray and drop it in a plastic bag. "These donuts are my calling." Jade says.
"That doesn't even make any sense." Ellie says laughing.
I walk towards Red and gently grab her wrist, "You know I was kidding about the ice cream. You really don't have to pay."
She turns around and says, "Nope you won fair and square. I have to keep my side of the bet."
"I'm sure the winner won't mind..." I say.
The worker finishes topping of the ice cream and hands Red the cone. "Here you go." She says cheekily smiling.
I lean down and kiss her on the lips. "You're the best girlfriend ever." I murmur.
She blushes and says, "I know."
I laugh and she goes to the counter to pay for our treats. We start to head out and I ask, "How come you didn't get anything?"
"I'm not really hungry... I'm still kind of full from the pretzels I snuck in my bag." She says laughing.
"Of course." I say laughing.
We get inside my car and I drop Red and Jade off. You only liked it because I won the bowling game. Whatever.

A Prose of Years
For decades, spiritualist Evert Kallstrom and his team have joined in humanity’s millennia-long fight against the beasts. Wielding their weapons and their ki, they fought and killed these great threats to civilization. And yet, despite their efforts, humanity was losing traction in the war. In the last fifty years alone, more cities had been overrun than in all of known history. While most thought the great beasts natural, a few knew the terrible truth. They were the product of a dark lord, who desired neither fame nor wealth nor power. Instead, his sole purpose was the genocide of humanity. While their peers dithered, a small faction of the strongest mankind had to offer—including Evert Kallstrom and his team—set out towards the Deadlands to find and confront this dark lord. After weeks of travel, twenty-one spiritualists found themselves approaching an ancient fortress wherein rested a being known only as the Eastern Guardian. All they found was death. But death has other plans for Evert. Evert bolts awake in his 16 year old body near his hometown, decades in the past. He is confused, poor and weak. But with grit, sweat, and years of experience, he won't let the future repeat itself. That level of strength won't be enough by itself (it wasn’t last time) and victory is hardly assured (he’ll need to reach farther and higher than he ever did), but Evert refuses to squander a second chance. [Other tags: First Person POV, Hard Magic, Faulty Memory] Volume 1 is complete and has been fully released. My current intention is not to write any sequel volumes. That said, I have also released appendices (SPOILERS) that cover the worldbuilding and future story-that-never-was. Comments suggesting fixes for grammar, misspellings, etc. appreciated. Note: If you came here from Candlelit Lives, these stories have nothing in common.
