《Cherry Hill》XXX. Keep An Out For Selener
Advertisement
Calling it right now, if I'm right, then I think I'm going to have to kill somebody.
~ Scarlett's POV ~
"In your knee socks~"
I sang along to the song 'Knee Socks' by Arctic Monkeys, I was getting ready for bed but I wasn't exactly tired yet.
As I turned my lights off and turned on the LEDs, my phone began to ring.
I looked at the caller ID and smiled, it was just Xiomara.
"What's up?"
I greeted Xiomara as I walked out of my room, I was a little hungry so I decided to walk down to the kitchen for a bedtime snack.
Xiomara looked at me with an uneasy look.
"Willow, you know a Willow Evans right?"
Xiomara asked causing me to nod as I grabbed a bowl and poured some grapes, that just made Xiomara look more nervous than before.
I was going to make a joke when she started to get up from bed and go on pause, I heard some shuffling and after a few minutes, Xiomara was dressed.
"I think I should come over and tell you this face to face, better have your window unlocked."
I nodded as I walked upstairs and back into my room, I made sure my window was unlocked before I hung up and laid in bed.
As I waited for Xiomara to show up, I put on Netflix and watched Shameless.
Soon there was a few taps on my window, I looked over and watched as Xiomara climbed through my window with the same uneasy look.
I sat up and made some way for Xiomara so she can sit next to me, I was getting nervous now.
"Don't trust Willow, I don't trust Willow.."
Xiomara spat out as she tried catching her breath, did she run all the way over here to tell me this?

I nodded slowly and rubbed her back a bit, she was trying to catch her breath before she explained why I shouldn't trust Willow.
"Don't you find it weird and suspicious that you and Jaden break up, then all of a sudden Willow pops up?"
Xiomara began, I hadn't really thought about that if I'm being honest.
I just noticed a pretty girl who noticed me and my mind went straight to mush, I looked at Xiomara and slouched a bit.
"It is weird, but what if she truly is there out of coincidence?"
I tried to reason with her, Xiomara bit her lip and looked away from me.
After a moment of silence she looked at me and smiled softly as she got up.
"I just don't want you getting hurt, if Willow is just using you or something then I can't imagine what I or anyone would do."
Xiomara explained, she didn't have to since I understand where she's coming from.
I would have done the same thing if I was in her shoes, I got up and hugged Xiomara with a light smile.
"Yeah I know, we gotta keep an out for Selener huh?"
I joked, Xiomara and I chuckled a bit before Xiomara went all serious on me and placed her hands on my shoulders.
My smile faded away to match her serious face although it was impossible for me to be serious, I was so close to laughing again
Calling it right now, if I'm right, then I think I'm going to have to kill somebody.
I smiled at Xiomara and nodded, if she was right, then I don't know what I would do.
But I know that I would have to beat the devil out of someone, I volunteer Meredith and a possible Jaden.

It was getting late and it was a little too cold for Xiomara to go home so I insisted that she stayed the night, she was reluctant but then finally agreed.
She walked downstairs to call her abuela to notify her that she was staying at my house, while she was doing that, I was over thinking.
My eyes were getting heavier by the minute so I waited for Xiomara to come upstairs, when she did, I turned the TV off and covered my body with the soft blanket.
My dreams were filled with everything that I have been through since the beginning of the school year, I was able to sleep a little bit before the alarm went off.
I laid in bed wide awake as I heard Xiomara get up from the bed to get ready for school, she had some of her hair supplies here in case she did stay the night.
My body and mind were not ready for the day to begin.
Finally I got up from bed and took a nice warm shower and brushed my teeth, I know for a fact that I would take some space from Willow.
When I'm given a warning, I take it very seriously since I didn't want to take a risk.
All I know is that I have to keep my guard up and I can't be vulnerable around anyone just yet, a little overdramatic I know but it's what I gotta do you know?
I just gotta keep an eye for Selener.
Keep an eye out for Selener.

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6
