《Violet Eyes || Haikyuu!! Fanfiction ||》Chapter 7: He's not confessing?!

**
"I bet a hundred yen that whoever the guy is, he will kneel in front of her and spout whatever nonsense that is" Tsukishima said.
"Ah...I'm not betting, right know, Tsukki" Yamaguchi told him. "He will kneel in front of Mizuki-san? Oh crap, I hope Tsukki's wrong..."
"Ah, mystery guy is here" the blonde said, looking at the boy with glasses. Yamaguchi's heart was pounding as Ayame is talking with the boy. Suddenly, the boy was on his knees, holding the girl's hand.
Oh, crap...
He...
Freaking...
Held...
Her hand...!
Not to mention, on their first meeting!
For some reason, this ticked Yamaguchi off and he wanted to know what they are talking about and better yet, separate them.
"Ding ding, I won the bet" Tsukishima said. For starters, Tsukishima usually don't mind Yamaguchi's business but right now, he's interested in what the teen's acting right now. He's not listening. He kept looking at them with burning curiosity, to the point which Tsukishima found this strange at his friend's attitude.
"Hey, Yamaguchi, your glare could practically pierce his thick skull, you know?" Tsukishima told him. Yamaguchi rarely glared. He's a bit of a coward, he would say.
"I'm not glaring, Tsukki!" he answered defensively "Anyway, we got to help her"
"Why do I have a bad feeling about this..." Tsukishima muttered "What's this guy's problem?"

"Um...Katasuke-kun, what do you mean by that?" I asked him out of curiosity. Technically, I really wanted to know why he asked me about this. This is getting confusing. He fixed his glasses then nervously answered.
"W-well..."
"Oh, so you're the letter sender..." a voice said. Katasuke-kun suddenly sweat dropped. I turned around and saw Tsukishima-kun and Tadashi-kun standing. Apparently, I think this two mistook it as a confession because Tadashi-kun looked like he wanted to strangle Katasuke-kun.

"S-so t-tall...." Katasuke-kun sweat dropped, quickly letting go of my hand. Oh yeah, Katasuke-kun is a good 160 cm while Tsukishima-kun is 188 cm, so he's basically a little intimidated by his height.
"You've got guts, holding her hand without knowing her, for someone like you" Tsukishima-kun said. Tadashi-kun had this weird and dark aura behind them and it scared Katasuke-kun.
"Uh...can we at least hear his explanation first before jumping to conclusion?" I asked them.
"Why bother asking when it's obvious what he's about to tell you?" Tsukishima-kun said.
"He's confessing..." Tadashi-kun muttered. I face palmed. They clearly misunderstood the whole thing. The guy's asking for help not confessing! Apparently, I think they saw Katasuke-kun kneel in front of me and they probably didn't hear the whole thing and assumed he's confessing his feelings whatnot. I better tell them or else things will get worse for poor Katasuke-kun.
"Um...he's not confessing..." I told them "He's...asking me for help on creating a love letter"
...
...
...
"What?! He's not confessing to you?!" Yamaguchi asked, pointing a finger to Katasuke."Then, why the heck he's kneeling and holding her hand, huh?!" He felt relieved when she said that the boy's not confessing and he was only asking her help. Still, he can't get the image out of his mind when he was holding her hand.
"You heard her. Nerdy's not confessing..." Tsukishima sighed. He was kinda hoping that he was confessing to her so he could see the freckled teen's reaction.
"It's Katasuke Shiro" Katasuke answered "And no, I'm not confessing to Mizuki-san. I-I only wanted her help on creating a love letter..."
"Good to hear..." Yamaguchi sighed "Can you at least explain why you need Mizuki-san's help?"
"Please tell us everything" I said. Katasuke-kun relaxed and pushed his glasses.

"W-well, there is someone in my class that I like and I think, giving her a love letter would do" he said "A-and I heard that boys are confessing and giving you love letters s-so I thought that maybe...you could help me..."
"Why did you send me a letter? You could've ask me, you know?" I told him.
"He chickened out..." Tsukishima-kun snickered. I frowned at him and motioned him to continue.
"W-well, the truth is, I was about to ask you personally but I got scared" Katasuke-kun nervously looked at Tadashi-kun and Tsukishima-kun "I decided that giving you a letter might do it..."
"That explains it all..." Tsukishima-kun said "Still, giving her a letter and asking her to meet you after class is a pretty classic move. We thought you were confessing to her in secret"
"It's the only thing I can think of asking her for help. Sorry..." he apologized, bowing.
"I'm sorry about earlier, too" Tadashi-kun said, rubbing the back of his neck. He probably meant the way his reaction was earlier, though I found it really strange why he's acting like that.
"I-It's okay, I guess..."
"If you're creating a love letter, let's hope you don't end up like those guys that Mizuki rejected..." Tsukishima-kun said, smirking. Katasuke-kun went depressed and sulked.
"Way to cheer him up, Tsukishima-kun" I sarcastically said. This guy really likes destroying someone's mood.
I helped Katasuke-kun in creating a love letter. Apparently, he admitted that he liked his best friend and he never had the guts to tell her. Honestly, I have zero experience in writing a love letter because (duh) I've never been in love but I'm really good at expressing my feelings in writing, so yeah, it worked.
While I was helping him, Tadashi-kun and Tsukishima-kun were standing a meter away, talking. Tsukishima-kun was telling his bestfriend about something and Tadashi-kun's face was red and he was shaking his head, saying "It's nothing like that, Tsukki!". I wonder what those two are talking about.
Anyway, I told Katasuke-kun good luck and he was a little relieved and ran off.
"That guy's weird..." Tsukishima-kun said. I sighed. Finally, it was all made clear. I hope that Katasuke-kun was able to give it to his crush because all his efforts (and mine) will be wasted if he failed to.

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!

8 203World of Fantasy: Golden Impact
For two decades, an RPG reigned supreme as the global king of MMOs. Then years of scandals and lawsuits, increasing microtransactions, retconning and nonsensical lore, and multiple progression-system changes, caused once-loyal players to form dissatisfied alliances and to leave in hordes, putting the developers on the edge of financial ruin. Now, NOVisionWizard is back to right all wrongs and to lead the gaming world again with their new, full-dive MMO: World of Fantasy: Golden Impact! Little does everyone know that the devs are secretly harbouring a lot of ill feelings towards their former playerbase...

And they’re about to experience a whole lot more than anyone ever expected.

It has a more traditional writing style (for now).
8 142The Skies of Aurora (To be rewritten in the future)
The Skies of Aurora A world full of thousands of islands spread throughout an endless sky with no ground to be seen beneath them. Here we find Shawn Blake, who lives a quiet life near a dungeon on the Isle of Fallen Snow. Very few people ever visit the Isle of Fallen Snow because there is only one dungeon that has a connection to the island in all of the endless Skies of Aurora. Thanks to that, Shawn has been able to live peacefully on the island with nothing but his training to worry about, despite being a hybrid of more than one of the five ruling races. However, unfortunately for Shawn, his peaceful life is about to come to an end as some visitors make their way to the Isle of Fallen Snow for reasons unknown. The world of Aurora is a world of endless skies full of floating islands separated by open air with the void far below them, and the only way to get from one island to another is through portals that are located at the end of each dungeon. These portals are connected to the central portal on another island. This book is a litrpg, fantasy, and sky world all in one. I hope you enjoy my book, and I welcome any and all suggestions.
8 263Become Leviathan
A young man struggles to put his life back together after his long-term girlfriend is killed in a mass shooting, but as he discovers more about the life, family history, and mysterious ethos of the shooter, everything, including reality itself, is called into question. A non-linear, multi-perspective, kaleidoscopic novel about the inextricable links between individuals, society, religion, and nature. Content Warnings: mass shootings, gang violence, violence towards animals, drug abuse, abusive relationships (romantic, familial, and interpersonal), various severe mental illnesses, and general suffering. However, please note that these elements are NOT included simply to be edgy--each topic is intended to be handled with respect and contain a genuine discussion of ethics. If you feel I have not treated a given topic with respect, please let me know, as I feel doing so is vital to the heart of the work.
