《Arranged Marriage to The Devil》Chapter 3: Tree House Fun
Advertisement
"So she just said that you guys are geting married and you guys can't back out of this?" Leah asked, for the second time now.
I sighed, "Yes Lee and I'm really trying to work up a plan to stop this marriage from happening."
"Maybe she's right, this arrange marriage can help you guys from hating each other to getting along."
I stopped in my steps, "Don't ever repeat what you just said, ever!"
She giggled, "Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed,"
It so happened I did. Waking up with a huge headache knowing that you fainted for the whole night, plus having your mom talk about you and the Devil getting married isn't to pleasing to hear in the morning, while eating cereal. To top it all off, they didn't even save me a piece of chocolate cake, what a bummer.
We walk to our picnic table and sat down then started eating our lunch. "I can't really think of a way to stop this wedding." I sighed in defeat, placing my hands on my forehead.
"How about you guys fight like you guys never did before. No more verbal but pyshical." Leah suggested
The light bulb went off in my head, "Lee your a genius!! but how am I going to convince Devil to do it?"
Speaking of the Devil
"Alex we need to talk," I heard him say
I turn my head and stared at him like he was a diease. "Sorry but I'm having lunch with my friend. Why don't you go eat with your so called crew," Using finger quotations under "crew".
He rolled his eyes, "Seriously, we really need to talk."
I stood up and faced him with pride, "What if I don't want to talk to you, Andy."
I saw his Jaw clench, both of us knowing he hates being called Andy, by me.
"Or else," He growled
"I'm so scared, I should go cry to my mommy," I dramatically whine just to get him upset.
His face turned beat red and I mean RED!! "I'm going to asked you again, can we talk?!?!" scream at me
Everybody outside on the courtyard was now paying attention to our fight. Even the people inside the cafeteria were looking out the window. My big mouth and I just had to say;
"Come on Andy, you must control your anger." In a Brittish accent.
I don't think his face could of gotten any redder, but it did. I guess I know how to press the right buttons to set off the Devil apocalypse.
"That's it,"
I was about to say another sly remark when I was lifted off the ground and flipped over his shoulder, "What in the fuckery are you doing?!?!" I screech out.
"I said or else and you asked for it!" He huffed
"For your infomation I didn't asked for anything!!"
I looked up and see that Leah had a "what is he doing?" look.
"I'll text you!" I yelled at her.
She nodded her head, grabbed her belongs and some of mine and started heading off to class.
"So where are you taking me cause I know your mom wouldn't like you skipping school just to carry me around, would she?"
Just then I fell on top of a soft cushion chair. Guessing I'm in his car. "Can you please shut up? will yah?"

I pretend to pounder, "Since you said please.. Okay!" Right when I finished my sentence, he slammed the door right in my face
He sat in the drivers seat and the engine started to roar, ready to hit the road. "Where ever you're taking me, Can we stop at Pizza Hut? I'm kind of hungry from all the insults that I been saying, you know?"
I heard him grumble a few words that should not be said and started going down the direction to Pizza Hut.
Pulling out my phone, I text Leah telling her to drive my car home and pick me up tomorrow. Cause I don't think I'll be going home anytime soon by the look on Devils face.
Just when we were 3 km away from the school Devil starts to speak. "Okay here's the deal. I over heard my mom talking on the phone with your mom last night sayi--"
"Gasp, you actually slept at your own house for the first time. What a shocker!"
He rolled his eyes at my rude comment. "Anyways, My mom said that if we get along by the time you turn 18, they'll cancel the wedding."
I think I'm hearing a choir singing in ny head because this is to good to be true. "Okay but here's the problem; we can't get along."
He knew I had a point there.
"Well... Can we atleast act like it? We all know your pretty good at acting and I can pull a pretty good move on them."
I put my hand to my chest, "You're complimenting me? How honoured I am to be your enemy!"
We arrived at the pizza place and started going drive into the drive thru.
"Can we take this seriously? I don't think you want to become Alexandra Carter don't you?"
He does have a point and somehow that name kind of suits me-- OUT OF THE GUTTER ALEXANDRA!!
I shook my head, "Nope I so do not want to become a Carter, I actually want to stay a Thomason."
The Devil not saying a word knowing that it hurts to much to say anything more.
He was about to say something when the Drive Thru speaker turned on. "Hi, welcome to Pizza Hut what would you like to order?"
"Yes I would like to order 4 boxes of pizza? two cheese and two meat lover with seasoned fries and Barbque Chicken?" The Devil said
"Okay, your total will come up to $50.69, Your Order will be ready in 15 minutes." Then the person hung up.
He drives over to the booth and we sat in slience waiting for our food. Looking around his car with boredom finding something that could not be passed by. "Dude! You have a condom in your car?!?! Don't you know if your mom ever found this, you're totally screwed!!"
He shrugged his shoulders. "So? Mom knows that I sleep around."
"Yeah but not your father." I mumbled under my breath
Devil froze in his seat. Yeah I got you didn't I? Muahhahha... That was a little to evil, just a little.
Right on time the window of the booth opened and out came a girl, around our age staring-- No! More like drooling over the Devil. "H-H-Hi, here is your order and the cost is $50.69," The girl stuttered. She passed the order to the devil. Devil just had to push the food in my hands, so he can talk to this girl who actually thinks he's gonna give her a chance. Little does she know that she's another girl in the bag.

Devil puts on his so called "Charming smile" and took out the money out of his wallet and a small piece of paper. "Here's the money and a little tip too." Did a retared wink and drove away from the booth. I scoffed, "You got to be kidding me."
Devil put on a innoucent look, "What? All I did was give the girl the money and--"
"And your number. She's gonna call, thinks she actually has a chance with you then you take her out on a romantic date. Have sex with her and then leave her house, block her number from your phone and the end." Said that all in one breath, I feel proud of myself for having that much air to speak.
He smirked, "I see that you been studying on my work ethics. I think I'm going to change your B to a B plus, good job."
Have you guys ever have that feeling you just want to get a person's head and slammed them to a wall? I have and right now would be a great time to do it.
We drove for a little while down the road and smelling the pizza in the back of the car makes me want to drool a puddle right now. "Don't worry, were almost there, you'll get to eat soon."
I slouch in my seat and started looking out the window."Wait we pass by our house. Why are we not going home? Can you please exp--"
" Can you just shut up and hold on!?! We're almost there." He let out with frustration. "Sometimes I wonder how Leah deals with you." He mumbled the last part but my amazing hearing heard perfectly.
The car ride was slience after a while. Watching trees go by can make you really tired. Feeling my eyes getting heavy, I fell into a peaceful slumber.
"Dude, I never met a girl this heavy in my life! And she's skinny, she has to have a suite on... Like white chicks."
"Shut up man, she's gonna wake up and we don't want that!"
"How do you know? It's not like you been in her room early in the morning playing pots and pans like a crazy man."
"Actually... I have,"
******
Feeling myself come back to reality I looked around my surronding. I was in a house that I never seen or heard of. Everything looked like it was a house made out of wood. I rose up and see a lit fire place blazing in front of me, man this is really nice but who's house is this?
I notice I had a black blanket that was wrapped over me. I took it off, stood up and streched. HOLD ON!! Looking down I notice that my shoes were missing and my two different types of socks were showing. I felt my cheeks heat up, not because of the fire place.
Looking around the house, it was so... cool, I never been in a house that looks like a tree house mix in a 5 million dollar mansion. I kept walking around the house, checking out the bedrooms, bathrooms and the living room. I must be dreaming, because I never seen this house before. Waking up and just seeing that your in a house like this!! It's amazing.
Walking down the stairs I smell the scent of pizza calling my name. I found the kitchen and see two boxes of pizza from Pizza Hut, bowl of ribs, and french fries. I must be in a dream because I don't think the devil will save me food while I'm a sleep or would he?
I shook my head, were talking about Andrew Carter now. The guy who thinks of himself and can't keeps his hands to himself around girls. I grabbed the boxes of pizza and the bowl of fries and ribs and went back to the living room where I was sleeping.
Sitting down my pizza, I saw a remote right beside me. I wonder where the TV is? I picked up the remote and pressed the ON button, then something magical happened! The mantel piece of the fire place rosed up and a 42"inch Smart TV came out slowly and magical! I couldn't believe my eyes, yeah I know my parents are rich but they wouldn't go all out like this! They like to stay old school and have the TV on a entertanment stand. The TV turned on and my favourite all time show came on; Pretty Little Liars.
I swear this was a dream. Tree house, saved pizza from the devil and PLL in the same day!! I must be in heaven.
It was a marathon of season 1 and 2 even though I watch each season about 6 times. This episode was about Emily getting drugged and Jenna getting her sight back. How much I love this episode.
After a while watching TV, I was getting pretty curious if I'm going to wake up anytime soon from this dream of mine. I turned down the TV and took out my phone. I have two missed phone calls from Leah, Three from Dad and ten from mom!! How long have a I been here?!
I Have the feeling of a nervous break down coming soon, I better find Andre before I go hay-wire. Looking everywhere around the house I see that nobody was in sight.
Hearing my breathing getting louder, I started to panic. What if I am sleeping and this is the time where I'm going to get killed or I am locked up by kidnappers.
Just then I heard the door open. My heart skipped a beat; who can be walking through the door? I picked up the closet thing that was to me and it was a bag?
Way to go Alexandra, you're for sure gonna die now.
I shook that thought out of my mind and slowly starting walking over to the front entrance of the house. I heard heavy foot steps coming closer to me and whispering too. Theirs more than one?
I lifted the bag over my shoulder ready to smack the person who had been keeping me hostage.
"Where did she go?" Some guy said
So guys are keeping me hostage, I guess they don't know whats coming for them.
I heared the foots steps coming closer around the corner. I hid right behind the door in kitchen ready to pound on these kidnappers.
The foots steps have gotten faster and louder. Ready to mark my post, I lifted up the bag and-
"Alexandra, what are you--"
SMACK!
The man fell down and was moaning in pain. Let's just say that things didn't end so good after me hitting this so called "Kid-napper"
Cece ;)

8 888A Girl and Her Food
When a lost girl wakes up without a name, she quickly finds herself alone in a way that people around her can’t fix. Without a real plan and desperate to find what’s wrong with her, she thrashes and bites to stay alive. But human beings are weak things, that band together for strength, no matter who we are. Now if only she could work up the courage to ask one question... It’s normal to get stronger when you drink the blood of monsters. Right? Things to expect: - A powerful but kinda neurotic and emotional protagonist, with some degree of weak to strong. Or maybe strong to stronger, honestly. She's pretty rational and practical about things but won't always make the best decisions, so be warned if you super-dislike characters doing dumb stuff for emotional reasons sometimes. - Lots of dialogue and characterization, especially as we get more into it. It's focused on a single POV, but there might be some sections of other POVs later on, I'm not sure right now. - Magic is on the softer side, but I'll try to keep things fleshed out enough to avoid any obvious "well-established magic could have seemingly instantly solved this problem" moments. - I didn't add the mystery tag because I feel like it implies that this is a detective novel or something, but the story is absolutely incredibly opaque at times. So you'll have the most fun if you go into it trying to puzzle out the nature of events before they're explicitly explained!😇 - Also, I added the genre for completion, but it's gonna take a while to get to the romance. Please wait warmly and have some tea. Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge!
8 357Transmigrated as the Second Male Lead's Twin Brother [BL Harem] (BXBXBXBXB)
My younger sister was an avid reader of romance novels. On her birthday, she begged me to read a novel named, "The Dark Catastrophe: The Holy Saintess Saves the World." What I didn't expect was that after reading the novel, I would get hit by a truck and die! When I woke up, I found out that I transmigrated as the second male lead's younger twin brother, Cash Reran! Cash was the second-born son of Duke Reran. To make matters worse, Cash Reran has a terminal illness and was fated to die in the first chapter of the novel! Although he was only mentioned during the first sentence of the novel, he played a very crucial role. He was the sole reason for the novel to exist because the novel plot only began after Cash dies from a mysterious illness. After being transmigrated a year before the novel's main plot, I decided to be a lazy bum and watch things from the sidelines. During my observations, I found out the villainess is a shy and misunderstood girl while the heroine is actually a green tea bitch.Furthermore, how come I didn't even do anything yet the main characters of the novel are always following me wanting my attention!? It seems like I somehow changed the novel's genre from straight romance to BL!!![Short Chapters]
