《The blonde and the brunette》2: They dont know

Why?
Why did I talk to him...
He won't want to be my friend.
He will be like everyone else.
I like him... but... I shouldn't.
I can't like people. I can't like people. I can't love people.
Do I love him?
No...
Maybe?
I don't know what love is anymore.
I just know what my heart being shattered feels like.
I never want that again.
Once Scott left, I started to panic.
All the thoughts of having a friend came back, thy were good until I remembered that they all... they all went away...
I'm lonely.
Scott won't last once he knows who I really am.
He doesn't know me because I have never talked to anyone in this building before.
They don't know that I've been abused.
They don't know why, they don't know, and they don't know when it all happened or started.
They never have gotten a word from me.
And I don't know what gotten into myself, I don't know what made me talk to Scott.
I felt something when he walked in.
I felt happy for a moment. But when he walked out, I felt sad and alone.
Why can't I be normal?
Why can't anyone love me?
Why can everyone else be loved, and I can't.
It's not fair.
I'm not right...
I'm crazy, they say.
Your ugly, they say.
Go kill you self, they say.
I've never thought about doing the last one until Travis started abusing me.
One of the reasons why I'm here.
But, I've stopped that.
I'm only here because I keep... keep thinking things and it makes me act different.
Travis said I was crazy.
Travis said I'll never be normal.
Maybe he was right.
No one can help me.
Can they?
As soon as I came into work this morning, I went right to Mitch's room.

He talked last night.
I couldn't believe it.
I take the keys and unlock his door, and gently knocking on the window. His head pops up and I see him brush his hair out of his face and stretch.
He walks to the end of his bed and looks down.
Did he get better?
Did he get worse?
...
I walk in.
"Good Morning, Mitch. How are you?" I ask.
No words.
What happened??
"Mitch?" I ask, sitting down next to him.
"Hm...?" He mumbles.
"What's wrong?" I ask.
He doesn't reply.
He moves his head, and looks towards the door.
I get up and close it. "No one can hear us, you can tell me." I says facing him.
"D-did you know I got.. I got abused?" He stuttered.
"Yes. I'm here to listen if you need to talk. Mitch, I'm your friend. And I know it will be hard for you to trust me but... I'm not leaving. Trust me. I spend the most time with you."
"Really?" He asks in a quiet voice.
"Mhmm." I say with a smile.
"I-I don't like talking..." he says.
"Well.. maybe you could tell me what happened. Then we could sing and talk about fun and happy things."
"I... I don't remember being happy."
"Can you tell me what happened? I'll listen, and won't tell a soul."
"P-promise?"
"Promise."
And so he began.

The Unnoticed Dungeon
A newly formed dungeon core awakes with no memory of who or what he was. In fact, he just found out that he died. He has no idea or when or how he came to pass, and now finds himself being forced to start all over as a dungeon core. Worse yet, he isn't even your average run of the mill dungeon. No, the Overseers, whoever they are, have designated him to be an experimental core. This means he doesn't have to play by all the rules, the bad news is that if the core oversteps his boundaries as a dungeon core too far he's more than dead; he's erased. Now he has to struggle to figure out what kind of dungeon he wants to be, all the while very aware that he can't play it safe. The overseers don't want safe, they want lines redrawn and limits reset. The question is, can he do it and survive? He asks, because he overstepped before he even made it to his new world.

Living as a Demon
Jonathan was living the life of a normal human male in modern-day society, until he was rudely awakened one night by a summoning circle that ripped him out of his reality and dumped him into a new world filled with magic, demons, and…mouthy young orphan girls?! Now Jonathan must navigate the trials of playing guardian to a preteen, learning to unlock his inner demon, and somehow managing to find a dang pair of pants! Welcome! I'm E.O. Tenkey; thank you for considering Living as a Demon, my third released work here on Royal Road (following Not a Manga and Mr. Familiar)! Let's set some expectations, shall we? • Not much hard profanity (chapter 1 is the exception!)• Human MC! Our protagonist is a bona fide homo sapiens. Which is not to say there won't be demons, demonic powers, and what-have-you, but this isn't some grimdark exploration of the life and times of a nihilistic, amoral killing machine.• Slice of life. My previous works always ended up there, so might as well get ahead of the curve!• Weekly updates, and a completed story: I will post a single chapter per week on Wednesdays until the story is complete (extra chapters are rare, but do happen).
