《Freshman》11. Best cakes in the city

They got off the bus and Minho checked his phone for directions. They walked for about five minutes before stoping in front of a big glass wall showing the entire shop. A few people were inside, chatting and eating. It looked very chic.
Minho opened the door and hold it for Jisung.
They sat in a corner, next to the glass wall. A menu was standing on the table. Minho laid it on the table for both of them to read.
-This place looks really fancy. Said Jisung. Hmm let's see what they got. Oh my... The prices!
-Don't worry, I knew it. I'll pay.
-But...
-It's normal. It's the best place in town. When you're the best you can't be cheap. Responded Minho with a smirk.
Jisung raised an eyebrow, before he got what he meant and chuckled.
-Ahh... Seriously... So you think you're the best, huh? Hmm I'll have to check that.
Minho just smiled, laughing quietly.
Jisung looked back at the menu and thought about what he wanted to eat. After a few minutes, he lift his head and looked outside.
-You've chosen already? Asked Minho, surprised.
Jisung simply nodded.
-Wow, mister life dilemma, what made you pick one so quick?
-They have macarons.
-Oh, so you're weak for macarons, huh? Laughed Minho.
-How can you not? I'll probably move to France one day so I can eat macarons whenever I want. I'll try all the macarons in Paris and will make a guide book. Best macarons go-to places.
Minho sincerely laughed, not so quietly.
-Well, I guess France seems like a nice place to visit.
-Do you like traveling?
-Well, I haven't traveled much yet but yeah. I've been in Japan with my parents and I liked seeing a whole different culture. It really fascinated me. Seeing people grow up with different ideas, languages and background, it really hit me. I want to see more.

-Wow, you really liked it. We should travel some time.
-The two of us?
-Yeah. That'd be nice.
A sweet smile appeared on Minho's face.
-I'd like that too.
They stayed like that for a few minutes, just looking at each other smiling.
Jisung admired Minho's traits. He was truly beautiful. But he loved even more his expressions, his words towards him, his personality. Seeing Minho smiling to him made him feel happy, home somehow.
-What I said last night, started Minho, I meant it.
Jisung smiled even more.
-Me too.
-Would you like... well... Would you like to date me? Be boyfriends?
Jisung had a nervous laugh.
-I would love that.
-It makes me happy. You make me happy.
He put his hand over Jisung's one, caressing it gently.
Jisung chuckled.
-Minho is my boyfriend. It sounds good to my ears.
Half an hour later, they got out of the shop.
Jisung looked up. The sun was shining bright in the light blue sky.
-Let's walk our way back. I want to walk, as the weather's nice.
-Alright.
They started walking side by side on the roadside.
After only a few minutes, Minho stopped and turned towards Jisung. He leaned closer to the younger's face and softly pecked his lips. The blonde boy was surprised but then responded to it.
Minho drew back and a little blush appeared on his cheeks. Jisung smiled at this view, Minho being shy, him usually quite confident.
This time, Jisung took Minho's hand and they went their way home.
-I really like you.
-I really like you too.

Luminether Online: A LitRPG Fantasy Adventure
A year after the tragic death of his best friend, Carey Walsh copes with feelings of guilt and loneliness by trolling strangers online. His secret little addiction becomes a nightmarish odyssey when he trolls a billionaire inventor of a futuristic VR simulation housed on a faraway tropical island. The game, known as “Luminether Online,” is actually an experiment meant to rewire the brain’s empathy centers - an experiment that kills the bullies it attempts to fix. Suddenly trapped inside, Carey encounters an epic fantasy world full of vibrant magic spells, terrifying monsters, and ancient gods who left behind superpowered races of humans – one of which Carey must choose as his avatar. Armed with the most basic armor and sword, he must level up, stop a guild of necromancers hellbent on world domination, and do it all while playing as an orange-eyed "Feral" rogue with a furry tail and amazing stealth, agility and parkour skills. But there are other, more toxic, players who will do anything to win, even if it means committing real-life murder against their competitors. In order to win the game, Carey must recruit allies, explore the mythical world of Astros, and unlock the secrets of this baffling new reality - because the truth is not what it seems. Luminether Online is a standalone LitRPG novel, though it is set in the same world as a different series known as The Luminether Series, a non-LitRPG epic fantasy.

The Orb Weaver Chronicles
"The Orb Weaver Chronicles contains several major and unique events that may or may not unknowingly intertwines with one another. The author of these chronicles is unknown, although some have hinted at the symbolism behind its name..." - Year unknown, location unknown 9 February 2022 Update: Welcome to the companion short story compilation of my novel trilogy The Shadow Paradigm. This compilation features prequels, sidequels and sequels to the novel's major plotline, as well as featuring a wide range of characters, new and recurring. Prior knowledge of the novel is not necessary as the Orb Weaver Chronicles' short stories are standalone. Once called The Arkesyyan Chronicles, I've deleted quite a few of its old stories. Due to the new avenue and revision, oriented toward more mystery and film-noir ambience, that I took my stories into, I've removed all aliens and overly sci-fi aspects of the whole TSP lineup, so I've updated the Orb Weaver Chronicles accordingly. I hope you enjoy them, and in time, a revised version will also be updated.
