Max's POV
School went by In a blur. I kept replaying this Morning over and over again. Each time, if smile and 'accidentally' doodled Tyler's name on my notes.
So thank gosh all my classes for the day is over and jules is taking me home. Well, out to eat, then home. "So have you two hooked up yet?" She asks. I spun my head towards her and my face goes red. "No." I said. She smirked. "Don't lie to mama now."
"I'm not lying." I said. She shook her head and turned back towards the road. "Okay max. You could at least try to have a little fun with the guy. He likes you, you do know that right?"
"Does making out with him count?" I mumbled under my breath. She slammed on the break and pulled over on the side of the road. "What did you just say?!" she screeched, smiling. I smiled and rolled my eyes. "I said we made out. you happy now?"
"You two made out!?" I smiled bright and bit my lip, blushing hard. "Maybe....."
"You did!" she smiled, "When?!"
"This morning." She smiled and jumped a little in her seat. She almost looked happier than me. "How?" She asked, a little calmer than she first sounded. "I don't know........ It just kinda..... happened. I wasn't expecting it to happen honestly." she hook her head. "But why did you make out with him? I thought you didn't like him."
I blushed more. "I guess i didn't realise it until he kissed me." I admitted. She chuckled and turned back in her seat, buckling her seatbelt and starting to drive again. "Well your stupid, so that explains everything." My mouth dropped open and I punched her shoulder. "I'm not stupid."

"Yes you are. He has liked you since the day he saw you and your just now kissing him." She says. I shake my head. "I'm not a slut like SOME people." She looks over at me and smiles. "Oh honey, I'm not a slut. I'm currently fixed on one guy right now. And hopefully a while."
"Wait...... does that mean your dating Carter?" Her smile drops. And I suddenly feel horrible for asking. "No....... we had an agreement that we wouldn't sleep with anyone else. And of course, he broke that. So I got him back and did the same. So I'm dating someone else now."
"Who is it?" I asked. She sighed and raked and hand through her hair. "This guy, David."
"Oh...... Are you guys serious?" She shakes her head. "He wants to be. But the only reason I'm even dating the damn guy is because I'm getting back at Carter. I just wish he would get over whatever other slut he's sleeping with."
Man, I've never seen jules THIS upset about ANYBODY before. She usually just likes the guys for her own pleasure. Carter must really be something to her if she's willing to do this. But I'm already going through stuff right now, and it's none of my business, so I'm just going to not worry about it.
"I'm sorry, jules."
"Don't be."

Dinner was nice. Junior called me nonstop though. and texted me, but I ignored every single one of them. After what Tyler told me about him, I don't even want to see him ever again.
Jules brought me home. On the way, I got a text from Tom saying he's coming sometime tomorrow morning an taking me to his house for the weekend. I smiled and got really happy. Jules starting blaring basket case by green day and we screamed along to the lyrics.

We soon got to my apartment and I got out. "Thanks for dinner, jules." She smiled and ward her hand. "No problem. No go have fun." she wiggles her eyebrows at me. I roll
My eyes and walk towards the front door. I open it and jules spins away.
As I'm closing the door, Tyler is running down the hall towards me, shirtless. Right as the door clicks shut, I'm being lifted int he air by Tyler's strong arms. I giggle mighty as he spins me around. "Colton, what the hell are you doing?!" He laughed and jumped on the couch. Still holding me. He landed on his backs me pushed me farther in the air by placing his feet on my stomach and gripping my hands. intertwining our fingers.
"It's movie night!" Tyler yelled. I laughed and kept a hold of his hands so I didn't fall. "And you have me in the air, ready to fall why, exactly?" I question. He lays me down easily and wraps his arms and legs around me, trapping me from even moving. I was laying on his bare chest, with my own. "So you can fall right Into my arms." He whispered in my ear. I smiled and leaned up just enough to see his face. He smiled back.
"What movie?" I asked. He shook his head. "Any movie you want, princess." I smiled and tried to pull away from him. Didn't work. "Not just yet." He said. He didn't give me any time to say anything before kissing me. It was quick, but still jut as sweet as any other kiss he had given me.
I smiled and pulled away. He let me go and still smiled. I got up and went to the DVD player. "Which one you want to watch? Annabelle, or the ring?" I asked. "Hmmmm........ Annabelle." He answered. I Smiled and put it in. I went back over to the couch and sat down right beside him. He did the stupidest thing and yawned, stretching and putting his arm over my shoulder.
I looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "Really?" I asked. he smiled and nodded. "Really. Now Shh, the movies starting."
I rolled my eyes and watched the screen, moving in closer to Tyler. And I'm not sure when, but sometime during the movie, I fell asleep.

Phantom Storm
"Have you heard, the entire Bonanno crew was brutally murdered!" Exclaimed a youth in his early teens. "What? you're lying, again!" Another similarly aged child responded with crisp denial in his tone. After all, the crew was infamous for their ruthlessness. An eery silence passed between them. Soon enough, the teens' curiosity trumped his ego, and he found himself inquiring in a meek voice. "So...Who did it?" "I heard my father talking about it while he was drunk. Guess what he said?..." The child responded, he was a natural-born storyteller. Listening intently, the other teen urged him on. "It was done by a single person. When the police arrived, the bodies were charred black, likely the work of an electro mage. Most had an arrow or two lodged in their body, and a few were even chopped into neat little slices by a sharp blade." He paused, inhaling sharply. "All the victims had shocked expressions on their faces. As if the enemy was invisible or something. That's why they call that person the Phantom Storm!" concluded the adolescent with an excited glint in his eyes. 2 CHAPTERS PER WEEK (Canada time) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] -------------------------------------------- Follow Itsuki as he is reincarnated in an unfamiliar world, left to discover where he belongs in such a place.

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021.
