《35 | Cody Bellinger x Reader》Chapter 11
Advertisement
We walk out of the hotel to see that our Uber has arrived. Being the gentleman he is, Cody opens the car door for me.
"My lady." He says in a British accent.
I giggle and say in a British accent, "Why, thank you kind sir."
The ride to r/n was very quiet. I kept think about how Y/BF/N and I were going to meet the rest of gang. I know that Y/BF/N is a ball of excitement since we are meeting the entire Dodgers team. Don't get me wrong. I'm excited, too, but I can control my excitement.
When we finally got to r/n, Y/BF/N couldn't hold the excitement in anymore.
"Where are they? When are we going to see them? Are they even coming?" Y/BF/N kept asking questions.
"Maybe I'm starting to think that meeting the team is a bad idea." Corey said, shaking his head.
"Or, maybe you should have kept it a secret from Y/BF/N." I said to Corey.
"That would've been a good idea. Why didn't I think of that?"
Another car pulled outside r/n. When the car door opened, I silently died on the inside when I saw who came out the car.
Both Austin and Chris came out of the car like it was a normal day for them.
I heard Y/BF/N inhale very loud.
I mouth to her, "Calm down, Y/BF/N. Act like they are normal people and not baseball players."
She mouthed back, "I'll try."
She looked like she was in pain.
"Hey, man how you doing?" Cody said to Austin as he shook his hand and gave him a big hug.
"Hey. So these are the girls that you stood with last night?" Austin said as he pointed to me and Y/BF/N.
"Yes we are. I'm Y/N, nice to meet you Austin." I said ad I held out my head for him to shake it.

Instead, he took my hand a gave me a hug.
"Nice to finally meet you Y/N. Cody has told us so much about you. You're more beautiful than I imagined." Austin said to me.
"Well, thank you." I couldn't help but blush.
"And you must be Y/BF/N. Corey has told us so much about you." Austin turned to face Y/BF/N, who was blushing a deep pink.
"Hello Y/N. You probably know who I am, but I'm Chris, Chr-"
"Chris Taylor. Yes I do know who you are." I interrupted him.
"Sorry for interrupting you." I said to Chris, looking ashamed of what I've done.
"Hey, it's fine. It is better than get 'Who are you?' and 'What sport do you play?' It's nice to know that there are girls out there in the world who know what baseball is."
"True. True."
"Do you know when the others are coming?" Cody asked Austin.
"Joc and Kikè are like five minutes away, but I don't know about the rest of the team." Austin said.
"Should we go inside and get a table while we wait for the rest of them?" I asked.
"Sounds like a good idea to me." Chris said.
"Dang not only are you beautiful and know a lot about baseball, but you are also smart, too." Austin said.
"Well, what can I say. I got looks, talents, and knowledge." I said.
Austin and I both laughed as we followed Y/BF/N, Corey, Cody, and Chris into r/n.
We got a table that would fit us six plus the entire Dodgers. I sat in between Austin and Cody.
We started talking when Cody got up and started talking to two people at the door. Then I realized that it was Joc Pederson and Kikè Hernandez.
They were coming over to the table. I look at Y/BF/N, who is basically dying. Austin saw and whispered to me, "Is she okay?"

"No, not at all. She was like this when she met Cody and Corey." I said to him as I turned around.
"How come you're not like that?"
"I can control my excitement. She can't."
"Makes sense."
"Joc and Kikè this is Y/N and Y/BF/N." Cody said.
"It's nice to meet you guys." I said as I got up to shake their hands.
"I- It's ni- nice to me- meet y- you."
Y/BF/N said as she got up to shake their hands.
I look at Austin and he can tell that she was nervous and excited at the same time.
"How about you guys sit down and you order drinks or something." Austin said as they sat next to him.
"So how long have you watching baseball?" Joc asked me.
"Ever since I was 7 years old." I said to him.
"Wow. Seem like you dedicated your whole life to baseball." Kikè said to me.
"Yeah, I guess so."
"Who is your favorite player from the Dodgers?" Austin asks me.
"I don't know. You are all great players." I said looking away from them.
"Y/BF/N, who is your favorite player from the Dodgers?" Austin asks
Y/BF/N.
"Don't put me under pressure." Y/BF/N said to him.
"Come on, just answer. It's not like we are going to attack you if you say someone else." Joc said us.
"Fine. Mine is Cody." I said, still not looking at them.
"Mine is Corey." Y/BF/N said.
"Name your top 5 favorite baseball teams." Kikè said to us.
"Dodgers, Mets, Cubs, Marlins, and I guess Astros." I said.
"How dare you pick the Astros." Austin said to me.
"Sorry."
"I'm just messing with you. How about you, Y/BF/N?"
"I would have to say the Dodgers, Astros, Cubs, Mets, and I guess Blue Jays."
"Damn, you also like the Astros. Why are we even hanging out with you two?" Austin said as he started laughing.
"When are the other going to get here?" Corey asked Joc.
"I have no idea." Joc said.
"We might be here for a while." Corey said.
"Puig and Logan this is Y/N and Y/BF/N." Cody said, introducing the last of the team to us.
"It's nice to meet you, Y/N." Logan said as I shook his hand.
"Same here." I said as I go to shake Puig's hand.
We all order what we wanted to eat and just started talking about random stuff until our food came. We basically had the whole restaurant to ourselves since we had almost all the tables and chairs.
"I have a question." I said as all eyes turned towards me.
"Who's going to pay for all of this."
That's when they all started looking at each other.
"How about we all pay part of it." Chris said.
"Sounds good to me." Austin said.
We all payed part of the bill and then left.
"This was fun. We should do this again sometime." Joc said and he and Kikè started saying goodbye.
We all said goodbye to each and went our separate ways.
I check to see what time it was. It was only 12:47.
"So what now?" Y/BF/N asked.
"Maybe we should start packing our stuff to get it out of the way." I said.
"Alright then, let's go." Corey said as he got on his phone to call a uber.
When the car arrived we all got in it and headed to our hotel.
I will never forget the day that Y/BF/N and I met the entire Dodgers team.

Returning to No Applause, Only More of the Same
Kreig was summoned to the other world 130 years ago, the last 30 of which were spent in a constant, vengeful war against any army that would attempt to subjugate him. Once he returned, he found out that only 10 years had passed. He was given the title of War of the North but he never even knew about it. After all, nobody could get close enough to tell it to him. But that all changes one day when a portal opens, allowing Kreig and a small band of soldiers to enter one of many portals that leads to Earth. As it turns out these portals have been opening ever since he was summoned, giving the people of Earth abilities that the world he was summoned to only used to have. But now... now, he has returned. Longing for his former life of peace and understanding, he allows authorities to capture him on the spot, only to be faced with deeply personal questions, such as "who are you?" "what have you been doing for the past 10 years?" and "why is your level so high?" -------- ...Have you ever read a story where the main guy who got isekai'd returns to Earth. Say, for example, FFF-class trashhero or the necromancer of Seoul station? Say, what if the authorities actually became aware what kind of monster had returned to Earth? What if they actually tried to use them for something? Kreig's been in the other world for 130 years, has experienced three great wars, and he isn't okay. Mentally speaking, that is. He's been imprisoned, gained and lost comrades, been betrayed... The whole lot. By now, all he wants is to put it all behind him, something the world doesn't seem to want to let him. (Irregular updates, mostly written for fun, no strong planning)

Wildling
Blurb: Silas--a scavenger living off the ruins of humanity--has spent his entire life fighting tooth and nail to provide for himself and his crew. But when a scavenging run goes awry and he's snatched up by an android patrol, he finds himself thrown into a cage and priced to sell as a pet. And when a suitor comes calling, he fears the worst: that he'll be turned into a Domestic, a human lapdog brainwashed into total obedience. Instead, he discovers an equally disturbing truth: that the creatures who stole his world have created a videogame the likes of which Earth has never seen; a sprawling, game-like theme park where humans are the Avatars and androids are the players who control them. And to make matters worse, his android guide is as hopeless as they come, having gotten all of her previous Avatars killed in record time. So if Silas wants to regain his freedom, he'll not only have to fight his way through a world that was specifically designed to murder him in brutal fashion--he'll also have to convince his android guide that he should be the one calling the shots. FAQS: Q: Who are you, handsome stranger? A: I'm Kyle Kirrin, the author of Shadeslinger, book 1 of The Ripple System, published by Portal Books, and I write crunchy LitRPG. Q: What is Wildling? And is it complete? A: Wildling is a crunchy LitRPG mash up of Fantasy and Science Fiction. And yup, Wildling is already complete at 64 chapters, or about 120,000 thousand words. You're looking at something like a third draft here--it's fairly polished, but it hasn't been picked over by a copy editor yet nor has my developmental editor seen it. Q: Upload schedule? A: 5 initial chapters today (2/15/2021) and one chapter a day for the next month. After that I'll probably slow down to 2 or 3 chapters a week until the story is complete. Q: How crunchy is it? A: It's pretty crunchy. I'd put it on the same tier as Ascend/The Land/RSSG, but it might be a bit crunchier than those three? Q: Is this the first book in a series or a web novel or what? And what are your plans for it? A: It's currently a standalone with series potential. Full disclosure: this story may head the way of my publisher eventually, but will be available on RR for quite a while no matter what. Likely several months after it's complete with plenty of warning before/if it's taken down. Q: What kind of build does the MC create? A: Sword and board! Q: Crafting? A: Plenty! Crafting isn't as center stage as it is in The Way of the Shaman, but it's close. Q: Base building? A: Two fully separate, distinct bases, both of which play a major role in the story. Q: VRMMO? Portal? Reincarnation or what? A: This one's a bit tricky. Basically an advanced race has created a game-like world that closely resembles a theme park. Think Westworld but with copious amounts of loot. And the MC has to fight his way through that to earn his freedom. Q: Permadeath? A: Nope! The MC gets 3 lives to play through the entirety of the game world, and death is extremely punishing, but not fatal. Q: Harem? Or romance? A: No and no. Q: Cursing? Blood? A: Quite a bit of cursing, yeah. There's blood, too, but it's not a gory book by any means. Q: How can I support? A: Instead of a Patreon/donations etc, I'd ask that you consider giving my debut LitRPG Shadeslinger a chance. It's free on Kindle Unlimited and the audio is already out narrated by Travis Baldree. It's an epic fantasy VRMMO where the main character gets 3 days of exclusive access to a new game plus a snarky, talking axe to guide him through it in exchange for agreeing to become the target of a serverwide manhunt once the Head Start period ends. Q: How's it similar to Wildling? And how's it different? A. The crunch level is very similar, but Shadeslinger is a much lighter, epic fantasy take on the genre. It's also VRMMO, but without any real world components aside from the first chapter. The MC is very different--he comes off as a bit of a jerk early on and can take a bit to warm up to, especially before his backstory is revealed--but he's also got a talking axe that constantly puts him in his place. Shadeslinger's a much more humorous story in general, and it's a great deal more polished as well. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy Wildling!
