《You And I》ƇӇƛƤƬЄƦ 4: Dwight Blake Johnson

"t's iodine in potassium iodide, Sir" a famine voice said, upon calling Miss Clarkson.
The confidence aura was strong and the body language supported that.
That simple question repeated in my head as I meet her green orbs. Me being me, I slowly drank in her features. Her skin slightly olive, with her hazel hair made her eyes stand out even more. Her pointy nose and her sharp looks made her perfect, moving down to her body which was equal to a Goddess's.
Beautiful or maybe simply Gorgeous would have completed her compliments book, but she was more than that. The strength vibes she gave away were different.
And most importantly, she did not smiled, gave-me-intimidating-look or not even passed a smirk upon my looking, as most of the female population do. Infact, she raised her fine eyebrow at me.
I pushed myself out of the trance and found that I was in the middle of pulling up my tie knot until it sat perfectly on the collar. Slightly tugging down my vast-coat, I gave myself a final look in the full size mirror.
I was dressed in white tee shirt and corduroy deep blue pants, with a matching vast-coat and suite shoes to complete my appearance.
So ya, we have to attend this dinner for some lame purposes .
"You look too good" my elder sister Katherine said as she looked at me while leaning against the door frame of my room. She was dressed in a long, pink dress.
Meet my elder sister Katherine Piper Johnson not to mention the almost replica of my mother with my Mom's dark hair and features but got my Dad's grey eyes. Whereas for me, I inherited my Dad's light hair and my Mom's light eyes. She is the only sibling I have and only living body besides my Mom who supports my opinions.

"So I've been told" I said smiling to myself as I continued combing my hair.
"Ego bigger than your a*s, young brother" she rolled her eyes, but smiled nevertheless.
⚪✶⚪
"You look handsome as ever" Mrs. Jacobs complimented as she hugged me next after she was done with my sister.
"You look good yourself, Mrs. Jacobs" I said planting a kiss over her hand.
"Don't call me Mrs. Jacobs, it makes me an old granny. Call me Georgia" she said and I smiled with a soft nod.
"Hello, everyone" A low frequency voice broke through the atmosphere as I was following everyone into the dinning room.
I closed my eyes and sighed.
Catlin Jacobs, seventeen year old annoying human who happens to be my sister's, to-be sister in-law. Since my sister is engaged to her brother, Gorge Jacobs, her seaweed brain thinks I'll follow suit and marry her. She never lets a chance go by, to trip and fall all over me.
"How are you young lady?" My Mom hugged her with a smile.
"Good, good, how are you, Mrs. Johnson?"
⚪✶⚪
We were now seated around the dinning table. Mom and Mrs. Jacobs to one side into their ladies talk, my Dad and Mr. Jacobs to the the other engrossed in business catchup's. Katherine and George into their lovely-dovelies on one side. So ya, pretty much leaving me alone with the devil who seated next to me.
I pressed my fork into the chicken cube and brought to my lips.
"So how is High going, Dwight?" Carlin said as she excitedly looked at me.
"Good, how's yours?" I wanted nothing but to cut my conversation short with her.
"Nothing, plain boring that you won't like... So tell me, how's your soccer practices?" She said this time drawing her chair closer to mine and instantly I felt her palm resting on my thigh under the table.

I looked around the table, to meet someone's eyes which perhaps will save me here...
But unluckily everyone was too enthralled into their activities.
"They are going fine" I said tightly, while pushing her hand off my thigh.
"Good" She said not even remotely embarrassed of her act.
But the next question did fly out of her mouth as a whisper, shamelessly "Any girlfriend yet?"
I stopped eating and looked her way to find her dead close to me. Not giving away any chances, I shot out of my seat "Excuse me" I said wiping my mouth with the napkin.
"Dear, is everything alright?" My Mom enquires as she looked my way with concern.
"Umm, is the food bad?" Mrs. Jacobs asked next with wide eyes.
"Nothing really, I just need some fresh air" I said and walked towards the exit door.
I stepped outside and inhaled air, as if my body needed it, as if it would have suffocated itself to death if I didn't.
To my cursed luck, I heard the clicking sound right the next moment. I sighed and closed my eyes.
"Why don't you just leave me alone?" I hissed, yet my back still facing her.
"What do you mean?" She asked with concern laced voice.
"Why did you follow me, out here?" I said this time turning around to look at her.
"Why not?" She said and walked straight towards me. Her hazel eyes shining with excitement.
"Go in, Catlin" I said as I stepped away from her.
"But I wanted sometime alone with you" she pulled out her most intimidating voice on me. She stepped closer yet and ran a finger down my chest.
"I don't" I said catching hold of her wrist, stopping the little journey of her finger.
"I like you, Dwight" she said out next which startled me.
"I'm sorry but I don't share the mutual feeling. Besides, shouldn't you tell these three letters to your boyfriend?" I said and she narrowed her eyes on the mentioning of her "boyfriend".
"I.... Uh.... I don't like him, the way I do to you. I broke-up with him anyway" she said gritting her teeth.
"Well then, I am sorry. I can't play a game of patching-up with you" with that I walked back into the house, caring less of her follow.

The Vitaean Chronicles - Volume I: The Sanguine Prince
NOTE: Chapters 02 - 19 are currently slated for review and rewrite following the Conclusion of Act I. Please bear this in mind! When tragedy strikes Arcturus Valoura, he is ripped from his carefree existence and thrown into a world of politics and peril, where today's friend is tomorrow's foe. Bereft of the knowledge and skills needed to survive in his new reality, he will need to find his place within a realm that mixes magic and science in impossible ways. He will need to learn the secrets of the mysterious System that allows him to guide his potential for growth even as he struggles to unlock the powers needed to keep himself alive. In the darkest, and most desolate places of an ancient land he will have to find the answers to forbidden questions, and terrible secrets long purged from the histories of mankind. And in so doing, shake the very foundations of reality itself. Release Schedule: Tuesdays (I may post on off-days if I get a lot done). Advanced Chapters available on Patreon starting May 4th 2021. Discord Community: https://discord.gg/3tHKHAx7Ye The Vitaean Chronicles are a debut LitRPG High Fantasy series written with the intent of filling a niche I've yet to see filled anywhere else. This is my first novel of this kind, so please be patient with me. Throughout this story, I will endeavour to create an evolving and expansive narrative anchored around believable characters, compelling plotlines, and a consistent and sensible magic system. The purpose of this work is to create what I believe to be a relatively unique piece of fiction, drawing inspiration from many great stories that have come before from the likes of Tolkien, Jordan, Hertbert, Goodkind, Pratchett, Martin, and several others. My goal is not to create a masterpiece, but simply to create a story that someone can read and re-read with the same joy, same frustration, and same investment each time. This story will contain violence, politics, Shakespearian drama, tongue-in-cheek references, adult content, and well-crafted relationships of both platonic and romantic natures. I will not promise you will like every choice I make. I can only guarantee that I will do my best to create a story I, and you, can be proud of. As I progress, I will have room to incorporate fan-made characters for those interested in making their mark within the tapestry of this tale (with the customary disclaimer that they do so while waiving any rights to future profit, lol). Thank you to Royal Road for giving me the platform to do that, and thank you dear readers past, present, and future for choosing to come on this journey with me. Finally, just to cover myself: This work is Copyrighted to the Author herein known as 'Hannibal Forge', and recreation, distribution, or re-release of any material herein in a commercial or public capacity absent permission from the Author can and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the Law.
