《Until I Found Her》XXIII. When I'm With You
Advertisement
You're really starting to piss me off Thames, this is serious, I mean I'm being serious.
~ Y/n's POV ~
Although I knew he was in his trailer, for some reason I just wanted to do a quick check around the set just so that I didn't have to see him, I was excited at first but the nerves took over and I believed that he wasn't going to like what I was going to say.
I finally circled back to his trailer and took a deep breath, I knew that this was the moment of truth and if I were going to make a move on him then now would be the time, I felt like I was going to vomit but I just have to pretend that this was like a scene in the movie.
After believing in myself and calming down, I knocked on the door and looked down at my feet to rehearse everything that I wanted to tell him, I wanted him to feel like I was pouring out my heart and soul to him, which I was but he needed to feel it.
When the door opened, I smiled as Mason looked like he had just woken up from a nap was still a little groggy from it, I mean I couldn't blame him as naps make you feel more tired when you wake up.
"What's up Y/n/n?"
Mason asked as he moved over so I could walk into his trailer, I walked inside and took a deep breath, just reminding myself that there was absolutely nothing for me to be afraid whatsoever.
He's just a boy and I shouldn't be worried about my feelings getting hurt if he were to reject me, there's always going to be other guys that will love me the way that I wanted and deserved to be loved, so getting rejected shouldn't hurt very much.

I've been living by the rule that I would choose rejection over regret, although there are times where I don't want to say something and end up regretting it completely, I only want to take the risk if I know the person well enough and am ready to take the chance.
Then there's other times where I'm ready to take a moment and just leap without even looking, because as long as I have something to break my fall, what doesn't kill me can leave me all bruised up and scarred, but it'll make me stronger than before.
"I have a lot of things to tell you and I'm just trying to find the correct words to say it without sounding stupid or a complete train wreck."
I told the boy who was now sitting on a couch, looking at me as I struggled to find the words that I wanted to tell him, I mean they were just pouring out in my mind earlier but now they have gone empty and I can't seem to find a single thing to say to him.
If I wing it now, I have to make sure that what I say doesn't come out in a wrong way and that it gets my point and message across to the person that I want, so if I wing it then I'm sure that it'll go smoothly.
"Mason, I have found these feelings that are different from what I have experienced before, I had convinced myself that I hated you since day one over something stupid and now that we've spoken, I have realized that I was being childish and immature."
I began by admitting that I was wrong in the first place, I knew that he didn't deserve my hatred which meant that I needed to apologize and let him know that I am completely aware that I am in the wrong, and I'm not afraid to admit it when it comes to him.

Except, I wouldn't tell him that, I was not about to tell him that he's the only person that I would admit that I'm wrong, he doesn't get to have the knowledge in his mind for the rest of forever.
"Go on.."
Mason spoke out as he watched me pause, I knew he needed to hear me out and listen to the words that were about to come out of my mouth.
"I realized that the hatred has began to turn into liking, but not in the liking that you're probably think about at this moment."
I breathed out, Mason looked at me as he furrowed his eyebrows before realizing what I had meant, his lips began to curl up into a smile and he got up from the couch, I didn't want him to start bragging about this but it was too late to get him to stop.
"You like me! You actually really like me!"
Mason shouted, I covered his mouth quickly not wanting anyone else to hear his stupidity, of course I like him but that doesn't mean I'm ready for other people to know how I feel about him.
You're really starting to piss me off Thames, this is serious, I mean I'm being serious.
I stated with a serious tone, he only brushed it off and began to smile and giggle like a five year old who had just discovered their parents secret stash of candy from Halloween, like honestly couldn't he have been more childish?
But I understood it, he was happy that I no longer hated him but now was the moment that I needed to know if he hates me or thinks of me as only a friend.
The suspense was killing me...

The Legion of Nothing
Nick Klein is your average high school geek--if you can still count as average when your grandfather is a retired superhero, and you've been trained in the martial arts by his friend, a mysterious, immortal mercenary. After his grandfather dies, Nick inherits the last version of the Rocket suit, powered armor that allows him to shrug off bullets, smash through walls, and manipulate sound. Along with it comes the base of his grandfather's superhero team including the team's jet and trophies from forty years of fighting criminals and aliens. Together, Nick and his friends, descendants of his grandfather's teammates, attempt to bring back a superhero team that was originally formed during World War 2. Along the way they'll face the normal problems of high school (bullies, homework, and dating), and the less normal problems like supervillians and mysteries leftover from their grandparents' past. As a story, it uses the conventions of all eras of comics from the 1940s on, ranging from serious to silly. If you're hoping for a grim and gritty story, this isn't it. The Legion of Nothing first debuted on my website legionofnothing.com in 2007. In that period it's updated more than 900 times, is still running, and has had millions of pageviews. The first two years have been released as an ebook, receiving good reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. I hope you'll enjoy it, and that you'll review it and comment. You can also vote for it on Top Web Fiction and rate it on Web Fiction Guide. Member of The Order of Phantasmal Architects.
8 283Re: Dragonize
After an unexpected turn of events, Drew must now survive in a world full of challenges with life-or-death stakes. Gone are the days when the biggest problems to face were awkward small-talk at physics department luncheons or mountains of lab work; this former physicist is now adrift in an unfamiliar land without any equipment. Now, Drew's only tool (if it can be called that) is a System, which provides constant reminders of all of the things that are still out of reach for a low-level being who's just arrived in a new world. Luckily, Drew has one powerful asset when taking on the challenges of this new world: surviving violent conflict is a lot easier when you have the power of a dragon at your disposal. Still, Drew has always considered violence a last resort. Why turn to fists (or claws) when a bit of quiet consideration might expose a better path forward? Maybe a life of quiet contemplation is still within reach for this former academic researcher. ...Or maybe not. It probably won't be a life of bloodless pacifism. Additional information for those who wish to calibrate their expectations (I'm adding this based on a few comments I received from readers who feel that the story is not what they expected from a dragon-themed story): Re: Dragonize is not a power fantasy -- or at least, it's not intended to be one. Re: Dragonize is a progression fantasy starting with a protagonist who must start at the bottom (or close to it), and work gradually upwards, making incremental progress with plenty of setbacks along the way. The protagonist, as someone coming from the world of academia, tends to be cautious, methodical, and contemplative. As such, expect this story to contain more than a few digressions as the main character takes the time to pontificate on a variety of topics ranging from Newtonian physics and horology to the nature of existence and the ethical dilemmas associated with being an obligate carnivore.
