《35 | Cody Bellinger x Reader》Chapter 20
Advertisement
I woke up to see little light coming through the curtains. I check the time and it says 6:45. I tried to go back to sleep, but I could so I got up and walked into the living room as quietly as possible so I would wake up the others. I open the front door slowly and close it slowly and quietly. I turn around to see Cody sitting on the steps. I go and sit next to him.
"Couldn't go back to sleep either?" I ask him as I look at him.
"No. I just kept thinking about last night's game." He said looking at me. "We were doing great until that game."
"I think it's Yu Darvish's fault."
He laughs a bit. "I think so, too."
We both started laughing. When we stopped, it was really quiet until he broke the silence.
"Y/N?"
"Yes."
I look at him and I just feel lips on mine. I feel him pull me closer to him. This is all I ever wanted the moment I met him. Then he pulls away.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that." He said looking away from me.
"No it's fine Cody. I don't mine."
"It just feels weird kissing someone your not dating."
"Oh... I get it." I say looking at the floor.
"Which is why I'm asking you out on a date."
I look up at Cody to see him staring at me happily.
"You are?"
"I am. So what do you say?"
I smile happily at him. "Of course I would to love to go on a date. When would it be?"
"Whenever and wherever you want it to be."
"How about tomorrow at 6 p.m?"

"Sounds great."
We sit outside for a little longer just talking until we header back inside. When we did, Y/BF/N was in the kitchen making coffee.
"You guys want?" Y/BF/N asked us pointing to the coffee maker.
"I'll take." Cody says sitting down at the table in the kitchen.
"I will too." I said taking a seat next to him.
Once the coffee was done brewing, I got up to help Y/BF/N with the coffee. We just sat in silence drinking our coffee.
"So what are we going to do today?"
Y/BF/N asked, breaking the silence.
"I just want to stay home." I say.
"I do, too." Cody said.
"Oh ok. In that case, I'm just going to watch a bunch of Marvel movies. Wanna join?" Y/BF/N asked getting up out of her seat.
"Of course I will. I can never turn down a Marvel movie." I say getting up as well.
"I never really watched any Marvel movies before." Cody said, kinda looking ashamed.
"Are you serious? How come?" I ask, looking at him in shock.
"I was more into Star Wars."
"Well that is about to change, my friend. Come on." Y/BF/N said, motioning him to get up.
We move to the living room and see that Y/BF/N already had Iron Man out. She puts the movie in the player and sits in the reclining chair.
A few movies later, Corey woke up and went to the bathroom. He got out dressed and left the house. None of us even bothered asking where he was going.
The rest of the day was just filled with Marvel movies.

The Infinite Labyrinth
(Story complete - Book 1 "Shanghaied", 2 "Shortcuts", 3 "Secrets" and 4 "Sanctions") It is the 19th century, and war smoulders between England and France. Any hope for a quick end to Napoleon's rampage across Europe ended when the Great Gates opened in 1800. For a fortunate few, the strange world of the Infinite Labyrinth offers opportunities, strange descriptors popping in their minds, informing them of growth, and status beyond that of a mere mortal. The materials and power crystal they bring back foster a new age, both military and civilian. Aether-powered Skyships prowl the skies, as all the great nations blessed by the Gates try to turn the blessings of the Labyrinth into immediate advantages. But for Jonas, an apprentice leatherworker, his friend Ira, and so many Londoners, the fabled ones that walk the Labyrinth are distant heroes, seen from afar. They fell short when their Potential was measured, and they fill their mundane lives with distant dreams. One man wants to break the stalemate. The Tyrant of the Dominion of France, Napoleon Bonaparte, has a plan. Eighteen years after the world changed, he will force it to change again. And when civilians are caught in the fallout, the unthinkable happens. Six people, unqualified, forbidden to ever enter the Labyrinth, find themselves stranded in a distant zone, forcefully turned into Professionals. They know little of what that means, but they have to figure out the rules that are now their lot, for they have little hope to escape their predicament otherwise. They need to understand what the descriptors in their minds mean, what each of the strange piece of gear waiting in treasure chests behind terrible guardians can bring them. They have to become Professionals on their own and rejoin the Empire. They will figure out their new lives one way or another. But will there be an Empire waiting for them when the Gates re-open? Caught in a clash of empires and high tiers, they will do what little they can. They will step up and do their best. One way or another. The Infinite Labyrinth is a slice-of-life litRPG adventure set in a real historical setting. It's a hard, crunchy litrpg. Expect blue boxes everywhere, and the system itself is very mathy. It started life as a serial. I prepared some proper worldbuilding, with enough details and background for lots of different potential story arcs, but as I wrote, I realized the main story needs to have a definitive end. So, there are four books in total, for a bit under 1500 pages, plus additional side stories, and even maybe a sequel one day. The Gore tag was added as a precaution because there are a few scenes with some light gore.

Let's continue with the topic we're all curious about. Why was it a great day? I achieved my dream to transform my real life into an MMORPG.

Let me give you some context before we continue. I'll keep it short, for we have more urgent matters to discuss. Art by: Roland Deaconu
