Chapter 18, Now, It's Over
I just wished, I broke your nose the same way you broke my heart.
~ Scarlett's POV ~
"Get, the, hell, up!"
I got hit with a pillow for every word, I groaned and shook my head as I just sunk deeper into my bed.
Cora was not having it, it was silent for a moment and I woke up screaming at the top of my lungs.
"Corazon Yesenia Weissman!"
I shrieked as Cora placed the bucket that was once filled with ice cold water, she looked at me with smirk as I got up.
"You had to wake up, you have school."
Cora tried justifying her actions as she replaced my wet sheets with dry ones, I nodded and walked to my bathroom.
I brushed my teeth and washed my face, I didn't want to go to school today.
"You're going, that's that."
Cora stated as I begged her to let me stay, I groaned and walked to my closet.
I wanted to stay home but then again I wanted to confront him, besides Xiomara was expecting me to come since we wanted to go matching.
"If you're not comfortable with staying the whole day, shoot me a text and I'll pick you up."
Cora smiled as she brushed my hair before placing my bucket hat on, I nodded slowly and took a deep breath.
Scarlett and Xiomara's Outfit
Once I finished getting dressed, Cora and I walked downstairs.
I ate breakfast and left the house, I hugged Cora goodbye before getting in my car and driving off to school.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't shaking in fear right now, I wasn't afraid of trying to confront someone but this meant that I'd probably end the relationship.

I parked my car and walked inside of the school, I sighed of relief when I said Xiomara was already there.
"I'm gonna kill your boyfriend!"
She blurted as she held me in her arms, I didn't cry but I just felt the need to.
I smiled at her words and let go of her, we put our things in our lockers and walked to the cafeteria.
Jaysean smiled and ran over to us, was everyone on his finsta except me?
"Trust me, the whole team is upset."
Jaysean finally said as we sat down at the table, I looked at him and sighed as I shook my head.
I didn't want everyone involved, if involved only Xiomara, Meredith, Jaden and I but also includes Javon, Layla, Jayla, Cora and Jaysean.
"They shouldn't, besides it was his choice."
I explained nonchalantly, my blood began to boil as Meredith and Jaden entered the cafeteria.
Xiomara looked at me and noticed I began to tense up, I got up without a second thought and walked over to them.
"Hey Scar-"
Before Jaden could even get a full sentence out, my hand clashed with his face leaving a red hand mark on his left cheek.
A smile crept on my face as his hand flew to his cheek, he looked at me and furrowed his eyebrows.
"What the hell Scarlett!?"
Meredith shrieked, I looked at her and without hesitation, I slapped her too.
Now, I know I was supposed to speak first and then hit but I had too much adrenaline to wait.
"So you kiss her and then expect me not to find out!? You know a break doesn't mean a break up Jaden."
Xiomara and Jaysean ran over to us after hearing the loud slap, I looked at him as my eyes stung.

My fists were clenched as I waited for an answer, he looked at me and I swear it took me back to Cassie and Maddy.
"So what, is this a damn thing now!? Was I just a freaking distraction Jaden?"
The words flew out of my mouth without even processing them, I looked at him and watched as realization washed over his face.
He knew that I knew, Meredith knew that I knew and neither of them wanted to speak up.
"ANSWER ME DAMN IT!"
I shouted at the two, Xiomara grabbed my shoulder and I took a deep breath.
I had to keep myself calm before I had any answers, Jaden looked at Meredith.
I placed my hand under his chin and forced him to look at me, I sighed and looked at him.
I just wished, I broke your nose the same way you broke my heart.
I let go of his chin and walked away from him only for Jaden to pull me back by my wrist, I looked at him as I pulled my wrist back.
"I'm sorry, it was something dumb."
Jaden and his stupid apologies, they weren't sincere and they didn't make me feel better.
"I forgive you.."
I whispered softly, a smile crept on his face as he tried hugging me.
I pushed him away as a dry laugh left my mouth, I looked at him and started to laugh even more.
"You fell for it? Oh God you're as stupid as I am!"
I swear I was going crazy right here but he kissed someone other than me and then expected me to forgive him?
That just doesn't work out like that, it really doesn't.
"I hope you have fun with McKenzie, it's over between us."
I watched as his smile fell, the words broke my own heart but it was what needed to be done.
Meredith looked at me angrily and balled her fists.
"It's Meredith!"
She shrieked once more, I looked at her and got all up in her face.
"It's watch your back Medusa."
I whispered coldly in her ear, I turned around and walked to my classes with Xiomara praising me as if I found the cure for cancer.
I'm a very vengeful person now, I will make them feel the same way I'm gonna feel in about a week from now when they start dating.
But oh well, what's done is done.
But it's gonna be their fault if something happens, I'm done playing nice.

World Step (Rewrite)
This is a rewrite of my story World Step. Though, in reality, this is my first serious draft. The shadows grow deeper on the planet of Whorrl even as a dark, and ancient ritual takes place within the depths of The Abyssal Mouth—a chasm of both fortune and calamity. The story follows Quintin, a Grandmaster Martial Artist from Earth, as unforeseen elements conspire against him from the depths of space. *No Harem *Strong MC, but by no means does he go through enemies without injury or at least learning something. *Throw on [Horror], and possibly [Psychological] elements. *Dark Fantasy with some [Grimdark] leanings. Notes: this will be a place where I endeavor to rewrite and fix issues. With that in mind, expect revisions, edits, and other things of that nature.

The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
