《A Distant Memory || Luxiem x Reader》VIII. || Dinner with Vox
Advertisement
"Oh! All I asked was if you wanted to check out the boba place with me" Mysta says causing you to light up and hug him. "Are you sure?? You aren't too broke this time??" You say jokingly "Anyways, what did you want to say Vox?" "I just asked if you'd like to join Ike and I for dinner at *insert restaurant name* tonight"
"That sounds good, I'd love to join you Vox! As for Mysta, we'll go out another time!" You say causing Vox to feel like he's been blessed. Mysta on the other hand felt upset, but he couldn't complain, you did say you'd go with him some other time. "Oh, that's fine, see you next time then!" Mysta says while running off as you and Vox bid him farewell. You then turned to face Vox "So, we're going with Ike, yeah?" You say as Vox nods "Yeah, we'll be with Ike, you wanna start heading there now?" Vox says while looking at you. "Sure, let me just tell Millie first-" You say as you start texting Millie "Take your time, we're in no rush" Vox reassures you.
You visibly blush at Millies response casuing Vox to be concerned "Are you okay?" "Oh- Uh yeah I'm fine, let's go now" You say, trying to change the subject. "Alright then, we should get Ike first though" Vox says "Oh right- well lead the way!" You say as you and Vox make your way to Ike's place.
As you and Vox walk to Ike's place, it gets a bit chilly, causing you to shiver a bit. "Are you cold? You can have my jacket if you'd like" Vox says with a mild blush on his face..? "Yeah a bit- I'll be fine though" You say before sneezing like a dad "Jeez- Bless you, that sounded like a dad-" "Oh.. nevermind then I won't be fine" You say causing Vox to laugh a bit. "Here, just take my jacket for now, all that matters is that you'll be warm. Don't want you catching a cold, now do we?" Vox says as he wraps his jacket around you causing you to blush in embarrassment "Thanks Vox.." "God how can you be so cute.." Vox accidentally whispers to himself, just loud enough for you to hear. This caused you to have a slight internal crisis "omg bro Millie what did you do I thought I didn't pull-" you think to yourself. "What did you say Vox?" You say causing Vox to be confused "I said something?"

"Nevermind, it's nothing serious" You say as you unknowingly reach for Vox's hand. This causes Vox to look down at your hands and blush, not knowing whether or not to take your hand. You end up grabbing his hand and holding it, making him blush more. "Hey Vox?" "Hm? What's up?" "How are you so tall?" You say while looking at him. "I just am, I don't know." He says as he holds your hand tighter, you'd think it's just him being weird, but it was really him trying to keep you safe from someone who's been following you this whole time. Who was following you? It was.. Shoto.. As you both reach Ike's house, you wait outside with Vox. Ike comes out after a bit "Hey guys! sorry for taking so long, let's get going, shall we?" he says as he locks the door. "Mhm, let's go!" you say enthusiastically causing Ike to headpat you "Still as short as ever~" he says. "Hey! I'm not that short!!" you scold him. Vox then goes over to Ike and whispers something, you couldn't hear it though. "He's following us.." Vox says to Ike "Shoto?" "Yeah.."
As you all follow the waitress to your assigned table, you notice Vox is still holding your hand. "Um.. Vox? You're still holding my hand-" You say causing both him and Ike to look at your hands "Oh- Sorry, I guess I didn't realize that-" Vox says as he lets go of your hand. You then sit at the table, you being in between Vox and Ike. When the waitress comes back for your orders, Vox notices that she's been looking at you a bit too much, this of course caused him to pull you closer to him trying to hint at the waitress to simply "fuck off" This confused you, but you decided to hug him because he's your friend.

After a short bit you excuse yourself to go to the washroom. While you were gone Ike asks Vox what the sudden intimacy was for, Vox responsing with "The waitress was looking at Y/N weirdly, I guess it was my instinct-" "Oh- Well you two look cute as a couple~" Ike whispers to Vox, causing Vox to blush and look away. "You really do like them! I knew it!" Ike exclaims as he teases Vox about it some more. "Shut up Ike- It's not like they like anyone anyways.." Vox sulks..
When you came back, you noticed that Vox wasn't there and only Ike was there. "Where did Vox go?" You ask "He went to the bathroom, he'll be back in a bit, why don't you finish your food for now?" Ike says as you sit beside him. Continuing to eat your food, you get a bit sleepy, I mean who wouldn't be when you eat alot? Ike notices this "If you're tired, you can rest for a bit until we're ready to go, here.. use my lap as a pillow for now" Ike says causing you to look at him questionably before going to fall asleep on Ike's lap. When Vox gets back he notices you on Ike's lap "So, why don't we pay and carry them back to the car?" Vox says with a laugh "I guess we should do that then, you can both stay at my place tonight" Ike says.
Timeskip to Ike's house
"They must've been really tired" Ike says as he places you on the couch "I guess so, they really need more sleep" Vox says as he notices your eyebags. "I'll stay here with them for the night in case anything happens" Vox says "Of course you simp-" Ike says causing Vox to whisper yell "IKE SHUT UP-" They both stop bantering when you wake up temporarily, only to move yourself onto Vox's lap causing him to blush like a tomato. "I'll just leave now-" Ike says as he takes his leave, leaving you two in the room together.

{COMPLETED} Alaina wishes to be more than a mere icon for her kingdom, believing a princess should be much more than a fragile lady in a dress.

But when one of the neighbouring kingdoms demands that it's time for a change in the land of Asteria, her entire kingdom is shaken. To worsen the situation, the king is somehow caving in to the demands irrationally. Stubbornly refusing to resign herself to the kingdom's seemingly inevitable fate, she is forced to leave her home in search for the root of the problems. Along with people of diverse backgrounds she comes to trust and a hotheaded boy with pyrokinesis named Kai, Alaina joins an uprising rebellion against the forming empire.

8 222The Dangers of a Double Life
Arthur Tracz is an IT technician, a loving husband and excellent friend. Aoife Brosnan is a courier, good daughter, and a volunteer. Gary White is a detective, ex-husband, and a father. They appear to be your average citizens, yet they harbour secrets some of which are so dark that if they were to be revealed they would end up on the top of the news on the international level. These people have no connection to each other, yet their double lives will lead to their fates interweaving. Their lives will never be the same. That is... if they survive. This story was originally supposed to be game, but due to me working on more important project and because most likely I would never have time and funds to do it. I decided to write it as a book which gives me more options in pursuing its narrative. Chapters will be released one a week, Sunday, 14 am CET.
