We were both properly crying now, holding each other as we trembled. The speakers announced, "This is the final call for the flight from Florida to London, please board now."
"C'mon!" I chuckled but with a tone of sadness in my voice, "You have to go before you miss the flight!"
"Don't ever forget how much I love you Dream!" he yelled as he hurried to the gate waving goodbye frantically, as he ran. With droplets still falling down my face and sobbed, "Goodbye George, until we meet again."
________________________________
After George boarded the plane, Sapnap and I went back home and ordered pizza. We sprawled out on the sofa and tucked in, watching TV. It felt lonely without George; quieter.
Sapnap tried to cheer me up, by cracking jokes every so often and made my favourite dessert: chocolate brownies. I forced a fake smile onto my face, I appreciated to effort he went to but all I really wanted to was go to sleep.
I tucked myself up in bed and rested my head on my pillow when my phone started buzzing. With a groan, I reached for it and my eyes lit up as I saw who was calling.
"George! How was your flight? How are you?"
"Hey Dream, I'm good thanks," he chuckled.
"I miss you already!" I whined.
"I've been gone for less than a day!" he laughed."
"The house feels empty without you..."
I heard him yawn and I laughed, "George go to bed! You're tired, you shouldn't have called me!"
"I wanted to say goodnight," he mumbled tiredly.
I chuckled, "Goodnight George."
"Goodnight George."

I woke up to Sapnap shouting at me.
"DREAM! DREAM WAKE UP!"

I groaned and glanced at my watch: it was 6:30am.
"What the hell do you want, Sapnap?" I grumbled.
"GEORGE IS ON THE PHONE, WANNA SAY HELLO?"
I launched myself out of bed and stumbled clumsily down the stairs. Skidding into the kitchen, I found Sapnap laughing as he chatted. He flashed the phone in my direction. George was on the screen. His dark hair was messy and fluffy and hanging down in his eyes. A smile tugged at his lips as he saw me.
We spoke for hours, about everything really. I chomped down an omelette that Sapnap made me while we talked. He said that he wanted to stream later so I said I'd join.
I logged onto to the SMP and started watching his stream. He was wearing his grey hoodie with the embroidered 'GeorgeNotFound' on it. His hair was getting longer, it looked fluffier and slightly curly underneath his headphones.
"Dream!" he exclaimed and broke out into a grin. I wheezed, "Hello there George, watcha doing?"
George spoke about what he was doing: building a nice new house for himself and I helped him.
"So George, how's England?" I asked, making a wall out of quartz.
"Um well it's just England you know? Bit rainy like usual but it's not too cold. I'd rather be in America with you though." He pulled a sad face.
I comforted him by saying, "Don't worry about the distance, just give me a call when you need me. Just pretend I'm right by your side."
I watched as he blushed and started to smile, he also avoided eye contact with the camera. For a second or two I forgot that we were streaming and that we literally broadcasted that live to one hundred-thousand people.
George announced that he was going to run a few minutes of ads. Looking down at my phone, I realised he had texted me, it said: Thank you :] <3
I replied with: It's all true, I'm always here for you ❤️
After that stream, everything went horribly wrong...

New God
Who said being a God was easy. If you started omniscient; omnipotent and omnipresent then it might be. However, without those powers it would be a different story entirely. This is that story. Adam is thrown into a new world with no choice and no instructions. At least he is a God, whatever that means... Lovely Royal Road readers: Imagine a tutorial with no instructions and no idea what the game was meant to be and what you are trying to achieve. All you know is that you are a God (whatever that means). So this is quite slow to start; mainly world building for me; a bit of base building by the MC and some good old minion development. I'm developing/practicing my writing and love the format of RR to get it out of my head. So hopefully it gets better with time as I get better. All feedback welcome - but please critique and tell me why you don't like it (if you don't) I'd rather a 1-star review than a 2-star(plus) rating!

Expect an update twice a week on Tue/Wed and on Fri/Sat. No set time, but likely afternoon or evening.

Evolution System+Customisation System=Stronger System? Maybe not though...
Synopsis- Dying due to what seemed to be an unavoidable drunken punch, Connor Connolly a 24-year-old man from England who is a little different when compared to the "normal public" keeps those differences along with a few additions when his soul transmigrates into a fantasy world of numerous opportunities compared to the mundane life of the earth where boredom was rife. His only asset? His mind and most importantly his imagination which he must maintain with practical knowledge from his previous life! Will his previous life's fascination with gathering what seemed to be random wildlife knowledge assist this hope for survival in the upcoming trials he faces that are beyond his imagination or make his situation worse because his past life knowledge is not always best in the world he has found himself a part of... All he has to go on are the words of the God who he heard from when he arrived in this crazy world and said "blessings" rewarded to him by this God. [Stupid human, I do not have time for your mortal questions, so I will give you the basic rules” of my planet. They are “evolve to improve oneself for yourself” and for you a unique ability that can be likened to your so-called concept of “customization” to further adapt oneself to the environment and for you to use your so-called “advantage of being reborn with your past life experience and knowledge”. Beware though, the strength you gain will balance itself out when compared to the aboriginals for the system I have created over my lifetime is perfection embodied] This is less brief in the actual prologue by the way as it also serves the purpose of giving you an idea of the world that Connor has been thrown into... :P Schedule: 2-3 Chapters a week, however, there could be more chapters released on some occasions.
