"We're going to play Uno." I sit down beside Jay and Haven sits in between my legs. "Loser has to buy everybody drinks." I nod my head and Clare starts passing the cards out.
I hold my cards out in front of me and Haven. "Did y'all even shuffle these? We already won this round." Haven looks at the cards and point at my draw four, "Save that when we really need it." We start playing and I look up from my hand and see Ty looking at me with a smirk on his lips. I glare at him and he starts laughing, "Haven, what were you and Niall talking about?"
My eyes widen at the question, "We tal-." I cover Haven's mouth and look at her, "It's a secret between me and you. No one else can know." She nods her head and I pull my hand away from her mouth. Haven looks back at Ty, "Its a secret." I smirk at Ty and he rolls his eyes. "Let's just get back to the game."
"Finally! I'm off that death trap!!" Jay says as we walk to a van. Haven looks around and she walks up to me and squeezes my arm. "I don't like this." I look at Haven and smile, "It's okay, there's no need to be scared." We get in and we head to a Japanese house I brought for us.
"You brought a whole house?!" Adam asks as we pull up in the driveway, "Yeah, we can come back for vacation another time." We walk in and everybody split up to find a room, "Me and Haven have the biggest room!" I shout as we walk upstairs.
We walk in the room and Haven looks around, "I don't like it here. It feels weird." I put our bags down and look at Haven, "There's no need to worry. Everything's alright. I won't let anything happen to you." I order us all some Japanese food. "After we're done eating, we can call it a night. We've been on a plane for eleven hours."
I hand Rafiki a slice of pizza and he sits on my lap. "Tomorrow we will go looking around to see if we get any leads or ideas on this guy whereabouts." Haven sits beside Jay and whispers in his ear. Jay chokes on his pizza and laugh, "What are you two talking about?" Haven shakes her head and Jay shrug his shoulders, "Nothing. It's a secret."
I look at Haven and she looks down. We finish up our food and head to bed. "I-I w-want to stay down here with Jay for a l-little bit." I freeze at Haven request, "Why?" She shrugs her shoulders, "Secret." She walks off towards Jay and they both sit on the couch, "It's just going to be you two?"
Jay looks at me and nods his head, "Yeah, we're not going to be down here long." I slowly turn around and hesitantly walk up the stairs. I walk to my room and slowly crawl into the bed. I lay down as Rafiki lays on my stomach. Bean climbs on my chest and licks my face, "Is it that obvious that I'm feeling some type of way?" Bean whines and I rub her head. Ten minutes pass and I start to get an uneasy feeling.
I move Bean and Rafiki off of me and put them on the bed. I slowly walk downstairs, being quiet as a mouse. "What am I doing?" I ask myself as I try to turn around, but my body wasn't allowing it. My feet quietly carry me to the last step.

I go around the corner to the living room and hide behind the wall. Why am I hiding? Why do I need to hide? I let out a low breath and peek around the corner and see Haven straddling Jay. It seems like Jay doesn't even care that Haven is half naked. Haven is reaching for Jay phone with a pout on her face and Jay is laughing, "Why are you pouting?" Their faces inches away from each other, "Give it back."
Jay shakes his head, "My phone. Why should I give it back?" Haven reaches for the phone even more and Jay places his hand on her thigh, "Stop before you fall. We can just go tomorrow, it'll be better to look around." Haven sits back down and grabs Jay by the ear. She pulls his ear, "Ow! Ow! Let go! What are you doing?!"
"Dummy." Jay holds his ear and scoff, "How am I a dummy?" Haven shrugs her shoulders, "Kiss." My eyes widen at the word that just came out of Haven's mouth. She wants to kiss Jay?! "I don't know about that. We don't know how Niall will react to that." I step out of hiding and Jay eyes widen, "Shit! Niall, you scared the hell out of me."
He looks at Haven, "You want me to ask or do you want to do it?" Haven points at Jay, "Me and Haven want to go off by ourselves. Is it okay? I'll keep her by my side the whole time." I look at Haven and she looks at me with hope in her eyes. "I don't care, I'm going to bed."
Haven face falls and Jay arches his eyebrow, "You okay?" I turn around and ignore his question. Haven quickly follows me up to our room. I get in the bed and Haven crawls to me, "Cuddle?" I shake my head, "Not tonight, Haven." She pulls my left arm and I pull it back, "I said not tonight!" I say a little harsher than I intended.
I hear some shuffling, I peek over my shoulder and see her with her back to me. I close my eyes and slowly let sleep take over me.
I wake up to an empty bed. Haven comes out of the bathroom with a dress that stops mid-thigh. "Can you do my hair?" I slowly sit up and stretch, "Yeah, let me wash my face and brush my teeth." Today we will be going around town to look around. Hopefully, we'll find something useful.
I come out of the bathroom and see Haven sitting on the bed playing with Bean, "You want a ponytail or bun?" She hands me her brush, "Bun." She sits on the floor and I do her hair, "You want to take Bean and Rafiki with us?" Rafiki runs to her and nods his head, "Yes."
I finish her hair and she walks out, "She usually waits for me." I change into some cargo shorts and a tank top. I put on a Nike hat along with some shades. I walk downstairs with Bean following behind me, "Y'all ready? When we come back we will most likely be coming back around dinner time. I brought everybody some kimonos to wear tonight."
Kylie squeals, "Yayy!! I thought we would have to buy our own! Thank you so much!!" She gives me a tight hug and I laugh, "You're welcome. Now, let's head out." We open the door and the heat hit us, "I rather stay here." Ty and Jay say as they turn back around, I push them out the door and close the door.

"It's hot. Can't we just use google earth to look around?" Ty complains and Jay nods his head in agreement. Haven grabs Jay arm and pulls it, "Never mind, I don't mind walking around." They walk ahead of us and I bite the inside of my jaw. We walk around and see other tourists around.
"We have to do some work before we go off." I hear Jay tell Haven, "You okay? You seem like you're mad at the world." I look at Rylee and shrug my shoulders, "Yeah, I'm good." I look back at Haven and Jay, "Do you two know where specifically where you're going?" Jay looks at me and shakes his head, "No, not really. We're just going to walk around."
We haven't found anything useful. We just know that there is a lot of secret roads and streets that not too many people know about. We are all sitting down eating. "Can we get one hint?! Just one, that's all I'm asking for!" Adam shouts as he throws his head back.
"While we're sitting here, let's take some pictures." Clare pulls out her camera and stands in front of all of us. Haven is to busy looking around to notice the picture being taken. "Smile for the camera." I point at the camera and she smiles, I laugh at her fake smile, "A natural smile." I poke her side and she laughs, I hear the click of the camera and look at Clare, "I wasn't ready."
She shrugs her shoulders, "Natural smile, right?" I roll my eyes as she continues to take some pictures. "Niall, Rafiki is fighting his leash." Kylie points at Rafiki and I sigh, "He doesn't like the leash, but I don't want him running off and we lose him." He hits my leg and sits down with his arms cross.
I pick him up and put him on my right shoulder, "Can we split up now? Me and Haven want to do some more looking around." Something in me is telling me to tell them, no, but instead, I say the opposite, "Yeah, just be back home in time for us to go to dinner."
Rafiki jumps on Haven's shoulder and Bean follows after them. I watch as they quickly start leaving my sight. "You know we can follow them." I look at Rylee and shake my head, "There's no need, Jay is with her." We start walking and I turn to look back in the direction Haven and Jay went.
Kylie holds her hand out with a smile on her face and I grab Rylee by the wrist. "We'll meet y'all back at the house." I say as I put the house key in Kylie's hand and drag Rylee with me. "I thought you said there was no need." I look around and luckily my eyes lands on them. "I don't know what made me changed my mind. Just stay out of sight."
We watch as Haven and Jay stop at almost every store. "Do you want to get closer to hear what they're saying?" Rylee ask me as we follow them to the higher end of town. "No, this distance is just fine." From the corner of my eye, I see Rylee smiling at me, "What are you smiling about?" She shakes her head and laughs, "Nothing, I'm just laughing. They're gone."
I turn around quickly and see no sight of Haven or Jay around. I get out of hiding and start walking around. Five minutes later we catch up to them and see Haven looking up at Jay. Jay moves his head closer to Haven and next thing I know I am walking towards them, "What the hell are you two doing?!"
Their eyes widen and I glare at Jay, "What are you trying to do?! What do you want with her?!" Jay steps back as I walk towards him, "You're getting the wrong idea. We didn't do anything, I swear." I scoff and glare at Haven, "You can sleep with Jay tonight." Hurt runs through her eyes as I turn around.
I don't know what's going on with me. Why did I get so upset? I ignore Jay callings and continue to walk back to the house.
A couple of hours later we are all dressed in our kimonos. Haven comes up to me, "I want to be by myself for tonight. Go with Jay." She shakes her head, "Niall, just listen to her. We'll be waiting outside." Jay says as him and everybody else walks out, "There's no need, she wants to be with you more than she wants to be with me."
Haven runs upstairs and guilt just runs through my body. Seconds later she comes back down with a wrapped up gift, "N-Niall's birthday is tomorrow, June 9th. Me and J-Jay went looking for a gift. H-He helped me pick it out." I'm to busy dealing with this man, that I forgot about my own birthday. She hands me the gift as a tear rolls down her face, "I don't want to sleep with Jay."
My breath gets caught in my throat, "Happy Birthday." I put the gift down and she shakes her head, "Open it." She tries to wipe her tears away, but they keep falling. I open the gift, "I'm so sorry." She shakes her head as I look at the gift. It's a wristwatch with a picture of me and Haven smiling at each other. It was the night of Brit fashion show.
"How did you get this picture?" She looks down at me, "I asked Brit." She points at the box, "It's more." I pull out a gold chain, I hold it up and it reads N and H. "Niall and Haven." I stand up and smile at her, "Thank you so much. I'm so sorry for being mean to you." I kiss her forehead and wipe her tears, "Please forgive me."
She hiccups, "Can I sleep with you?" I nod my head, "Of course you can." She looks up at me, "You're not mad anymore?" I shake my head, "No, I'm not mad anymore. Let's go get us something to eat." She smiles up at me, "You look beautiful in your kimono."

The Strongest Hero VS The Weakest World?
There exist many worlds out in the universes. Within the Devine realm, the Gods manage each and every world carefully. That said, the worlds outnumber the Gods since there is an almost infinite number of worlds. Thankfully, every world doesn't need a God to work properly. Though, some worlds are in desperate need of some due to monsters or demons causing damage to them. To help isolate them and save the worlds, the Gods created a plan. The plan gives each world a rank that shows the danger level of the world. The plan also ranks each God depending on how powerful and wise they are. Then, each God gets assign to a world that matches their ability and rank. This said the Gods are unable to interact with the world directly. They can only do a couple of things, which none of the actions can save the world. Due to this, the Gods bring Heroes to their world so that the Heroes can save the world. The Heroes come from other worlds that have passed away. The plan picks out Hereos and then the Gods train them so that they are prepared to save the other world. Within the realm that the dead goes to for judgement, a person stands in line with a soul so bright it might be mistaken for a God. Later, this person is known as the Devine World Savior, though, if you would ask him, he will only say... "Huh? That was a low-ranking world. It was extremely easy!"
