"Alright we're here" Blake said, breaking me from my thinking, the car coming to a stop.
We were parked by the park, and I could see the lights of the other cars in front, coming to a stop too.
I turned my head and looked over at Blake.
Ya he definitely looked tired.
"I'm going to state again that the minute you're too tired you say it and then you go home sleep alright?" I told him while unbuckling my seatbelt.
"Yes m'am" Blake laughed and got out as I got out too.
It was dark outside and the air was chilly. I regretted not bringing a vest or something. Maybe Blake's hoodie. But then again, I had the original nice smelling guy right beside me.
My attention was quickly drawn towards Daph though, who had got out of her car singing and now she was spinning on herself, arms up in the air and almost shouting "Cellophane flowers of yellow and green. Towering over your head. Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes, and she's gone. Lucy in the sky with diaaaaamonds..."
"And it's official. We lost Dada. She's high" Alex joked, walking towards us.
Tyler and Vanessa who had gotten out of her car were pushing each other teasingly, laughing, smiling and... happy. Finally happy.
And for one second I just looked at them and smiled. This was what I had wanted. I wanted my brother to be happy again. I wanted all his hurt to go away. And I wanted Vanessa to be happy too. And they were.
Daphnee had sprinted in the middle of the field and was now spinning around, making a fool of herself, while Alex, Blake and I were walking towards the field and Van and Ty were following behind, still goofing around.
And I hadn't even realized it but Blake had taken my hand in his.
"So Alex. What's your little act? Because there's two other guys here tonight and if you're planning on doing some gogo-boy shit, I'm warning you that I will have to beat you up"
"Need I remind you who's the quarterback here?" Alex grinned but then laughed and said "You give me a song and I can do the clip dance"
And Blake stopped walking and since he was holding my hand I sorta stopped too and he looked at Alex, his expression between confused, amused and shocked maybe. Nevertheless it was an amusing one.
"Okay..." Blake said trailing the word "Should I be... worried? Surly that's got to be some kind of imbalance?"

"You're just jealous" Alex kept grinning.
Blake shook his head in discouragement and looked at me, raising his eyebrows "And you dated that?" he said, pointing Alex with his thumb
I fakely smiled at him "What can I say? It's a really cool skill"
Blake had a thoughtful face for one second and then shook his head "It's creepy actually"
"Definitely jealous" Alex repeated but he didn't stay to hear Blake's come back and instead ran towards where Dada was as she kept on singing "Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile, the girl with kaleidoscope eyes."
"You have poor taste in men Pumpkin" Blake smirked his eyes wicked, when Alex was out of hearing range.
Was he aware he was insulting himself by saying this? Probably not...
So I narrowed my eyes at him a little. "Says the boy who dragged Stacey in a seminar"
"Ouch, okay that was mean" Blake answered, his palm on his chest like he had just taken a blow.
I rolled my eyes "You looked for it"
And then he looked at me with those eyes and said "Hey, what can I say? You weren't talking to me back then"
Wait what?
Did he just say that?
Vanessa's screams though stopped me from asking more question, made me actually jump on my spot and then I turned my head to see what was wrong and then rolled my eyes when I did. Her and Tyler were still fighting and Tyler had gotten her on the ground and he was now hovering over her and kissing her and ya... if it had been different circumstances it probably would have end up like the disturbing mental images.
And Blake screamed at them, almost taking the words out of my mouth "Get a room! It's seems like that's been working out great for you two!"
I broke into a laugh and then arms wrapped around my neck and Daph said beside my face "What had I said? Craze cats? Front Yard? Sad, really."
I kept laughing but elbowed her, while Alex made his way back to us too "So you finally decided to stop singing?" I asked.
"Papa Bear had convincing arguments" Daph grinned and slapped Alex's butt.
"Can't resist, can you?" Alex said, shaking his head in fake disapproval.
Daphnee ignored him though and screamed at the two love birds too "So are you two going to fully exchange bodily fluids on the grass or are you going to come over here? Or was your little show supposed to be this? Cause I can get better videos on YouTube!"
I rolled my eyes at my hippie friend. "You really want to piss them off, don't you?"
"I mostly enjoy making them uncomfortable" she grinned and then Vanessa and Tyler slowly started to walk their way to us, holding hands.
Couldn't really judge on the whole holding hand thing though since Blake was still holding mine and I wasn't about to let go either. It was a comforting warmth, his hand. And well his thumb was kinda tracing circles over my knuckles and it was quite pleasant to say the least.
"So who will be the first contestant at "Making-A-Fool-of-Myself"?" Alex asked as we all walked to the benches.
They were six levels benches and once I reached them I went up to the fourth level, dragging Blake with me, and then sat, while Daph, Alex, Tyler and Vanessa followed, sitting on lower levels but faced up so we could all see each other.
"New comers should totally go first. How about Tyler? Is he the first to come?" Daph grinned and I hit my face with my palm, covering it and everybody sort of coughed a laugh.

Expect Tyler and Vanessa that is.
"Are you done now Daphnee? Did you get it all out?" Vanessa sighed in discouragement.
At least she didn't seem too pissed.
"Not quite..." Daph smiled wider.
"You should be ashamed of yourself Daphnee" Tyler told her, shaking his head too.
He hadn't said that much tonight...
That was something about Tyler though. He was usually the shy type when it came to people he wasn't super duper close to. For instance, it had taken him a while to just speak with Vanessa years back. So it wasn't a shocker to me that he was mostly keeping quiet. Especially since we were all older than him.
"I can't be ashamed, I don't have an ego" she laughed.
"Aww just leave the two alone Meany-Daph" Alex pitched in and then stood up "Well since no one wants to break the ice, the one with the most balls here is going to go up in front" he added, going down, which triggered automatic responses from the two boys who clearly started to shout in argument.
And Daph too.
Vanessa and I just looked at each other and laughed.
"So? Songs?" Alex asked, when the shouting had died down, standing in the middle of the field in front of us.
"Show us your Backstreet Boy skills! Do Everybody!" Daphnee shouted like a two years old.
"Well technically I can't DO everybody, but I do the dance move to the song with the same name" Alex answered her and you could just see he was really proud of himself for that little comeback and Daph was actually applauding him.
And then Daph, Van and I started to sing the song, the end of the song, the part where there's the big dance, so Alex could do it with the music and not look like a fool and then the two other boys joined in when they understood what was going on, and we weren't really being serious and Alex was way into his move and completely hilarious doing so and I had to stop singing cause I laughed too much.
When he was done Vanessa smiled evilly and asked for "Baby One More Time" and then after Alex complained for a few second we all started to sing the song from start to beginning. And Alex did all the choreography, with all the little flips and turns and with all of us shouting at him now and then to sake his bum laughing more. And of course the fastidious moment arrived at the end, with the leg kick which was the reason why Alex never wanted to do that one and that earned us a wincing in pain Alex.
"Come on! Get up you pansy!" Daph yelled and Alex just flipped her off.
And for a second I was a bit worry "Are you okay?" I asked.
"Ya ya..." he finally answered and got up "I think I'm done now!"
When Alex sat back, Blake told him "You have a lot of courage man..."
"Well thanks"
"Wasn't a compliment" Blake smirked.
"You really ARE jealous of me, aren't you?" Alex smirked back too.
Blake rolled his eyes but I don't know, his hold on my hand got a little stronger.
"Alright, who's next?" Van asked, her head leaning against Ty's shoulder, while he had an arm wrapped around her waist.
I smiled at them again.
And squeezed Blake's hand tighter too.
But nobody offered themselves so I got up, letting go of Blake's hand and walked down the benches "Alright, I'll tell you guys a story" I announced when I stood in front of them "So..." I tried to think a bit of something and then smiled to myself "It's the story of two guys. One has long hair and the other one doesn't care. The end."
"Oh please, that's not even a story, or a joke!" Tyler said, laughing, and smiling in understanding.
He had been the one telling me that one. And I had replied the same thing he had.
"Come on Kitty, you can do better than that" Alex pushed.
"Well I'd dance for you guys, and no Blake no innuendos allowed, but no music" I smiled angelically.
Not to mention the whole I'm wearing jeans thing. But they were kinda stretchy though...
"That's NOT a reason" Daph snorted.
"I'll provide the song Pumpkin" Blake said, half a smile on his lips and then raised his hand a little and the way he was holding them high I understood so I took off my shoes and socks and then Blake's fingers started to move like he was playing the piano and he started to hum Für Elise.
I smiled too and started to do a battement dégagé but then raised my leg for an arabesque and spun around on myself.
And just like that I don't know maybe because I always got a little carried away when I started to dance for no reason like that, or because my melody was Blake's voice but I kept on dancing and spinning and jumping from one leg to another until the humming died down.
A little breathless, I did a little bow to my audience and then grabbed my shoes and sock and climbed back up to my seat.
"Thank god I didn't rip my pants" I laughed as I sat down beside Blake again.
"It's a miracle! Let's all CELEBRATE!" Daph beamed and in a totally Daphnee-ish attitude grabbed the hem of her many layers of shirts and raised them up, flashing her bra.
"Damn it Daph!" Alex yelled at the same time I burst laughing and Van shouted "Dada shows her boobies!" in a kiddy voice.
And then Daph rushed down the benches, stood in front of us and said "Now my turn!" smiling evilly and she started to sing Lucy in the Sky again, spinning on herself, and as she did, took her washed out jeans jacket off, and then the thin sweater under it and that's when I realized what she was doing and I muttered "Holly mother of god!" automatically covering Blake's eyes with my hands.
"Daphnee! You fool!" Van shouted, following my lead by covering Ty's eyes too.
"What the?" Blake complained, trying to understand what was going on but I just pulled his head on my lap determined to not let him sneak any peek!
"She's taking her clothes off?" Blake chuckled, looking up at me, the back of his head against my thighs, my hands on both sides of his face.
"She's taking her clothes off" I nodded, not averting my gaze from his.
"You're cute Pumpkin" Blake smiled, the dimple smile, a little bit amused, his eyes glowing and my fingers slowly brushed against his hair.
God damn it! Why did this boy have to be so hot?
Right then I wanted to wrap my arms around his head and bend mine and kiss him, and press my lips against his, and just let him know how much I liked him, how much I cared about him and that the kiss we had shared HAD meant something, did mean something but there was a whole audience around us, my friend was basically taking her clothes off in the middle of the place and this was just not the place or the time.
"Shut up" I answered, smiling too.
Alex had gotten up in front of us and yelled "Come on you crazy hippie! Stop taking your clothes off!"
And that's when Daph finally stopped. She had enough layers off that she had reach her tank top by then "You really are no fun Alex! Must be that pole up your ass!"
Blake burst laughing on my lap and I had a two second of "Oh no she didn't"
"Daph, you've got serious problems" Van said, shaking her head, but laughing.
Daphnee seemed to think for a second and then putting both her hands on her chest she said "It's just a pair of sixes. If you can beat that you got me licked, and that's not a totally unpleasant prospect."
Oh dear god...
But I actually recognized that. Of course I did. Vanessa probably did too because she was smiling knowingly and then said "That leaves us with twenty seven thousand dollars Margaret-Mary"
"Mary Margaret, that's not enough to start a mission" Daph answered.
And finally I added "Don't you worry Margaret Mary we are honourable women. We delivered. The lord will provide."
And then the three of us laughed like there was no tomorrow and Blake had to sit up because I would have pushed him off with all the laughing.
"Quoting Maverick? Really?" Blake asked.
"We can't help it, we are irresistible" Daphnee smirked.
She had put on most of her shirts back on by now.
"Well! I think it's my turn right?" Vanessa said, getting up and stopping Daph from quoting more.
We all cheered for that and Vanessa went to stand in the middle like we all had.
"Okay, so what do you guys want me to sing"
"Anything but "You know my name". You know you can't sing that one" Tyler teased and she answered a plain "Ha ha" not amused, and glared a little at him but then chuckled a little.
"Well I've been practicing "Fallin' For You" at school so I'll start with that one alright?" Vanessa announced and then she started to sing a capela "I don't know but I think I may be falling for you, dropping so quickly..."
And we all listened to her in silence, our gaze fix on her as she did what she had always loved and what she was the best at and what had made her leave her hometown. She sang. Like only Vanessa could.
When she was done with that one she sang "Give me Sympathy" by Metric, another one she had been working at school. And she was amazing, as always.
"Alright now give us some Beatles!" Daph shouted, demanding, when she was done and after laughing a little Vanessa started to sing "Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away..."
And Daph raised her hands up and moved them from side to side like a true fan.
Vanessa sang "I want to hold you hand" next and we all clapped our hands as we should.
We kept on clapping with the right beat as Van sang "Eight Days a Week" and we all said the "Eight Days a Week" with her.
Now the party was definitely starting. This was how things used to go down when we did this before. We always ended up goofing around, laughing our asses off.
It's when she started to sing "A Hard Day's Night" that we all started to completely sing with her, getting up, like we were actually in a concert or something moving like there was actually a beat when all there was were our voices.
We did the back voices when Blondie sang "Help!" with little high pitch tones.
Blake was completely cracking up and I realized again how much I wished he had been with us before, sooner.
I wouldn't have known he had so much pain buried inside of him by just looking at him right now.
Tyler had come to stand beside him and they were almost howling on some lyrics and they completely cracked me up.
"Alright everybody, and to end the show tonight..." Vanessa started to say and then she sang "Love love love... love love love..."
And we all raised her hands like Daph had in the beginning, keeping up with the "Love love love" beat, while Van sang and we waved our hands from left to right.
"All together NOW!" Vanessa sang louder close to the end.
"ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE!" we sang.
If someone had passed by now we probably looked like a bunch of high morons.
We applauded Vanessa for a good minute when she finished.
When she came back to sit, we just started to talk, about nothing in particular really, well basically Daph was like a drug addict that just had her fix so we spent a lot of time making fun of her.
And after a while of just talking and joking with each others, I decided that Blake's yawning was just getting too much and now he REALLY needed to get some sleep.
"We should all head home now at least Blake, you should go to sleep" I said but everyone seemed to agree.
And I probably sounded like his mom right now, but I didn't care, Blake needed to sleep.
"But if I leave, you leave. I'm your lift home" Blake smirked a little but yawned, yet again, making me yawn too.
"I think you need to just head home. No need to take a detour to drop me off. And I mean Vanessa and Tyler are sort of going at the same place as me"
"And what if I fall asleep while driving?" Blake asked, his voice almost daring.
Well actually that WAS something I should worry about...
"Want me to drive your car and have someone drive me back home afterward?" I offered.
Blake seemed to think about it but then got up like everyone else "Don't worry, I'll be okay"
"You sure?" I asked, frowning a little.
If he had a car accident that would be like... no I couldn't even THINK about it. Maybe I should force him into letting me or someone else drive the car...
We all made our way back to our cars, everyone still joking around but my attention was on Blake now.
"Yes I'm sure. And I can go get more coffee, there's a shop close by if that can make you feel better" he smiled a little
"I just want you to get home safe, that's all"

The boy who fell in love with a tree
This is a story about a boy who fell in love with a tree… A story about powerful people changing the rulebook to stack the odds and line their pockets… I aim to create a story that will transport us so we get a glimpse of what that boy felt. The first 4 Chapters might be classified as a prologue depending on how you look at it. The boy quickly grows and the story really starts when the System arrives on Earth. I’m trying to achieve a relatively slow power progression and guide what we learn at a pace following the people in the story. There will be fighting but It’s more focused on base building. The MC is not all-powerful and all-knowing but he has some significant advantages. I’m trying to create a universe that makes sense in its own context. Much of what you will find, are my own world views, in a magnified way, as to make it for interesting fiction. The story took a life of its own when I started to write and I’m really happy with it. Not all of the tags I have marked will immediately be applied. There is stuff planned for far in the future such as the Sci-fi tag. There might be some cursing and gore but it is not very often. -------------- English is not my primary language, so I ask everyone to be forgiving. If you see a glaring error I would appreciate a msg but it is not feasible to fix everything. And if the story offends you, I wish you happiness, reading what you enjoy. ------------- Img link: https://unsplash.com/photos/EwKXn5CapA4

Trial of Champions
It all began with a family trip to an amusement park. How were any of us to expect being transported from Earth to participate in some "Trial of Champions," whatever that was supposed to be? Given only an hour to choose the Classes that would come to define our strengths, we were almost immediately torn away from one another and thrust into a deadly game of survival. It wasn't all bad, though, as terrifying as it could be from time to time. The supernatural and magical powers of the Classes were like something out of an RPG, complete with leveling up by killing monsters and completing so-called "Sub-Trials." And despite the juicy Experience to be gained from killing other Champion Contestants, not all of the participants were bloodthirsty murderers; some could be allied with, or even befriended. Even if it seemed like everyone who had been chosen for this Trial, no matter what universe they came from, was at least a little bit crazy. I would survive this till the end, and I'd make sure that my siblings and parents did as well, no matter how many times we were separated from one another. No matter how long it took. No matter what I had to do. --- A first-person litRPG incorporating classes inspired by D&D and other sources. If you like blue boxes but don't need to have huge lists of numbers to scratch your itch, you should be satisfied on that front. Each chapter is, in my word processing document, seven pages long (approximately 3300-3900 words). The Traumatizing Content warning is there because of discussions of certain topics. Nothing that I think deserves the warning actually happens in the story.
