《About the Boy || Cody Bellinger》Twenty One

Madeline's POV- July 2017
Cody slept like the dead, completely oblivious as to what was going on around him. He gave me his room key last night which is why I was able to get into his room without waking him up. I set the two cupcakes, and the wrapped box on the night stand in order to turn on the lamp. I placed my purse on the floor and once the room was a bit illuminated, I climbed up on the bed.
"Hey" I gently said as I pushed his hair back.
His eyes slowly opened and I smiled.
"Happy Birthday to us" I sang.
I laughed as he pulled me down and shifted so I was under him. He connected our mouths together and we made our like horny teenagers. When he pulled away, he laughed as I continued to sing to him. Once I was done, I lightly nudged him and sat up when he moved.
"I bring cupcakes" I said.
"You're the best"
I accepted his praise and kiss on the cheek. His voice was incredibly raspy at the moment. It that had to do with him just waking up.
"Chocolate one is yours" I stated.
"You're seriously my favorite"
I smiled and watched as he ate the cupcake.
"Sleep well?" I asked as he chewed.
He nodded.
"Are you sure you can't come?"
"I'm sorry, Erin and Manny have the morning and you get the night" I replied.
"Sounds fair"
He smiled as I leaned forward and pecked his lips.
"Eat your cupcake"
I reached for my cupcake and bit into it.
"If it makes you feel better, we're going to eat breakfast together" I told him.
"It does, I get to meet Erin"
He reached for his phone.
"We have time"
It was 8:30AM and we were meeting with them at 9:30AM.

"You're up early"
"I am, but that's because Manny woke me up" I stated.
His mom had called to wish me a happy birthday before her shift started (his mom was an anesthesiologist, and she liked going in early in order to have the afternoon off).
"Let's just lay here and enjoy each others company"
I agreed and we lied down. We enjoyed each other's company, with the occasional lazy kiss. Eventually the kiss got heated, and soon I was straddling Cody. He looked up at me just as I felt his...friend press against me.
"We should stop"
I cocked my head to the side as I leaned down.
"Should we?" I asked.
He nodded even though his body said the opposite.
"I don't have condoms"
I smiled.
"Lucky for you, Manny tossed me this" I said.
I sat up and pulled a condom from my butt pocket. It was meant as a joke, but pregnancy is also no joke. Cody eyed the condom before looking at me.
"If you want to stop, just tell me. Ok?"
"Ok" I agreed.
I laughed as he flipped us over, so it was him who was straddling me.
"No hickies" I warned.
He nodded and I closed my eyes as his mouth pressed against my jaw. Gentle pecks were made down to my neck and I gripped onto his hair earning a light groan from him.
"Sorry" I apologized.
He looked at me and that's when I noticed how dilated his eyes were.
"Don't be"
"You freak" I teased as I tugged a bit on his hair making him groan.
He laughed before connecting our lips. Soon, our clothes were removed and scattered throughout the room. The condom was placed on, and the fun continued. Once the fun was over he cuddled up against me and kissed my shoulder.

"We should shower"
"Do we have time?" I asked.
"If we shower together"
I looked at the time and rolled my eyes when I saw he was grinning.
"No funny business" I warned.
"We're all out of condoms"
That we were. I joined him in the shower, and since I did not have my body wash or shampoo, I used his. Oh I was going to hear it from Manny and Erin.
"I made you something for your birthday" I said getting his attention.
He finished getting dressed and took a seat next to me. I watched as he opened the box and raised an eyebrow when he pulled out a small square I had knitted.
"I didn't want to pack the actual blanket" I began saying.
"You knitted me a blanket?"
"You hogged mine last time you were over" I replied.
He just smiled.
"Thank you"
I accepted his kiss and smiled.
"There's more" I told him.
He frowned and looked at me.
"You promised you wouldn't spend money"
"I had an extra" I stated.
He smiled and unfolded the blue t-shirt,
"Thanks babe"
"There's more" I said.
He picked up the card and nodded.
"I will definitely be redeeming this coupon"
The card said, VALID FOR A DOZEN COOKIES (Of your choice!).
"I got you something as well"
He stood up and I watched as he made his way over to his suitcase.
"I know you said no expensive gifts, but I saw it and I had to buy it for you"
He placed the box on my lap and sat next to me.
"Open it"
I opened the box and my eyes widened when I saw what was inside the box.
"This is to expensive" I began saying.
He shrugged.
"You're going to need it"
I looked at the purple stethoscope and nodded. I had lost mine during the move and it honestly sucked. The softball team had given it to me for my birthday and for some reason I could not find it. Maybe it was in the box in the garage but I doubt it.
"Thank you" I told him.
He smiled and accepted the kiss I leaned in for.
"Of course, it's the correct one right?"
"Yes" I replied.
He got me a littmann stethoscope.
"I even got you a charm, well two actually"
I picked up the small box inside the box and opened it. Once charm had a sunflower engraved onto it and the other had my initial engraved.
"I know most people referred to your team as the pretty girls, but I always remembered the sunflowers you guys wore"
I smiled and set the box on the bed before hugging him.
"You're the sweetest" I stated.
He wrapped his arms around me and kissed my forehead.
"Happy Birthday Babe"
"Happy Birthday Bear" I mumbled.
He chuckled.
"It's better than Boo or Pooh Bear, so I'll take it"
I nodded and kissed his cheek before clinging onto him. If he was going to call me babe, I was going to call him a pet name as well. I chose bear because he was tall, big and warm.
"As much as I'm enjoying this...it's about to be 9:30"
The look on Manny's face when Cody and I arrived to breakfast five minutes late. Erin was the first to greet me and she winked at me when we pulled away from our hug. They said nothing, but once we were in her car, Birthday Sex began playing. I got three texts from Cody a few hours later
🍆🍆🍆
😧
I was incredibly thankful that all I got from his teammates and their girlfriends was a wink.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
