《Stranded》Chapter 13: My very first birthday on a island in the middle of nowhere

Becca's P.O.V
I open my eyes and hear a enthusiastic voice say "Happy Birthday!" Wait what? I immediately sit up. I see Noah holding a banana with a candle stuck on it. I couldn't help but be thrilled. I make a wish and blow on the candle.
"I am sorry it's not a cake." Noah apologizes as I split the banana in half and offer him half. He hesitates and pulls out a coconut. "Here it's for you. I know it's not the best, but you know birthdays have to celebrated even when you are in the middle of nowhere." He says smiling.
I take the coconut from him and open it. The coconut is like a box and inside there was a pearl bracelet. The pearls are shiny and they are so smooth. The bracelet looks very real. I love it, the shine, the colour. Everything! I feel Noah's nervous eyes on me as I cradle the bracelet. "Do you like it?" He asks nervously. I pick it up and put in on my wrist. "I love it! Noah, thank you!" I exclaimed, flinging myself into his arms. His arms curls around me and holds me closer.
I look up at his eyes. Noah wasn't anything like the rumours I heard about. He was sweet, caring, fun and hot. For once, I actually make my brain shut up and follow my heart.
I decide to take a risk, at least if I get hurt, I'll know better next time. I lean in closer. I kiss him. He holds me tightly as if he thinks I was going run away. I run my fingers through his hair. My arms snake around his neck. I pull away and stay in his arms.
"Thank you." I said, blushing, suddenly realizing what I had just done. I look down, embarrassed.

"Your welcome." He says. I will not look up. I will not- Dammit!
His hair is slightly tousled. His eyes are twinkling with amusement and I look at him. His eyes soften as I look at him.
"Noah?" I whisper.
"Yeah, babe?" He replies. He smirks, probably thinking I was going smack him or yell.
Instead I whispered, "I like you, too" I hated the way he made me feel. I felt girly, weak and vulnerable. I buried my face in his chest. Oh my god! Did I really just say that?
"I knew it! " He says to himself, almost smugly. That breaks me out of this stupid trance. I huff and walk towards the water.
"Hey, where are you going? We aren't finished yet, babe." he calls out, suddenly I hear splashes coming from behind me.
I start running in the water. The water is so heavy, I start swimming.
I look behind me, he's gone. Yes! I won. Before I can turn around and do a victory dance. I crash into something solid. I yelp and sink. As I rise to the surface I look up to see Noah's smirk.
I splash his face. He splutters. I laugh at his expression. He lifts me up and throws me back into the water. I squeal.
I pull him in with me.
Noah wasn't just somebody who I liked, he was somebody who was comfortable with who I was. This might be the start of something new. I thought as I leaned in for a kiss.

Romance - plus Judgemental Powers? Completed
Blue was a red headed boy who desperately wanted a girlfriend. So he asked the class beauty to walk home with him. She very nicely refused him. So he asked another girl in the same class, one with an average rating in the social status ranking. She also refused him. So, still desperate, he thinks – “I’m probably at the bottom of the ranking for boys in this class, so how about I ask the girl who is also at the lowest ranking?” The girl’s name was Pink. She said yes. Gulp. “What do I do now?” was his reaction. Well, obviously, have a romance. And, along the way, they get one hell of a lot more than they bargained for. Like, for example, supernatural Judgemental Powers. How did they get those? And that was only the start. The two most insignificant students in their class become famous. Not just in their class or even in their school, but to the population at large. They end up breaking and making the top politicians and rulers of their country. But finally, of course, they get what they wanted. A committed relationship. This is an Esmeralda the Angel of Death story. It follows on from my previous novel “Maybe it would have been a good idea not to wish for a harem?”, however it is a totally separate story with only a minimal overlap in the characters. There is no need to read the first story to enjoy this one. Although you just might enjoy the first story also… This story has multiple characters and multiple Points of View. Every POV change is clearly marked with a new header. Inside each POV section, the POV character’s thoughts are in italics. This story has about 105,000 words (about 380 RoyalRoad pages). It is fully written and proof read (the poor man’s proof read using Word). It has 25 chapters, and will be published at the rate of roughly one chapter per day.

Gladiator✔️
His chest glistened with water droplets dribbling down the glowing bronze skin. Resting, his strong muscular back against the rocks on the lake side, head lulled backwards, onyx eyes closed in utter salvation."Your spying on me is utterly useless young tulip." Ink eyes opened, resting upon my little frame making me freeze."What are you thinking? You have got this one chance....run away." He offered his eyes watching my each and every movement like a hawk."I am a prisoner sire, I have heard stories....tales of how war prisoners are mercilessly butchered if they are caught and I can't afford to die....not yet...I have someone to feed and I will do anything for them.""Anything?" He asked in eerily calm voice. I nodded slowly a lump forming in my throat as my eyes glistened with tears with the scenes of men using my eighteen year body flashed infront of me making me tremble.Water splashed around as he rose to his full height inside the lagoon, his eyes solely focused on me, his feet moving forward, closing our distance altogether."Azarios" I stiffened, my eyes snapping to his in utter surprise as I heard the name leaving his plump lips.His identity, the name which echoed throughout the dynasty making every living soul shudder.KillerCommanderBeastHe was the commander of Gladiators.Azarios, the Gladiator of Ambrose."You will be the bride of mine."
