I walk down to the pool with David. I see May is standing by the pool's edge even though she hates water with a passion. As I am about to say something to her, she jumps in. David and I look at each other, then walk over to chairs. May, eventually, gets out of the water with a bunch of stuff in her hands
"What happened? Did you fall in" I ask as I walk over to her "I didn't see you fall and I sure as hell didn't see anything in your hands when you got into the pool"
"James feel in before you guys got down here. His phone and everything else he was carrying went in with him. James, Justin, and Alex went to get James a new phone so his parents don't flip out on us again" May says and now it all makes sense. James has always been the clumsy one of the group besides Alex
"Oh, I understand now" I say and she smiles "But, that doesn't explain why you were in the pool. You hate water like that with a passion" I continue
"Oh, because Alex asked me to get the stuff out of the water so there wouldn't be a problem with James and his parents again. She wanted to get it fixed or get a new one as soon as possible in order to avoid an issue. I said I would do it because I need to get over my fear of water" she answers and now I am proud
"I'm proud of you. In all the time that I've known you, you have never tried to even get near pools or oceans or anything like that. You're a good girlfriend" I say
"I try, tomorrow will be our real 5 months together, though we say we got together on April 30th, we really got together May 7th. I want tomorrow to be special but I had no idea how, until I thought, what if I took James on the tour of the ocean thing? He loves boats and fishing, so I thought I would also try to get over it a little bit today. I have everything all set up for tomorrow, but I am scared" May says and now I am scared. May is very sensitive and she will be crushed if James doesn't like what she is doing for him. I know someone is going to have to get up really early to drive them, so I'll ask March

"Have you asked March to drive you guys?" I ask
"Actually, I asked Dan to drive us" she responds
"Oh, cool" I say and I am relieved she has thought of all the details "It's getting late, we should start going upstairs" I say
"Sure" May says
"David" I yell
"Yeah" he yells back
"We're going upstairs" I say
"Okay" he yells back and then May and I start to towards the elevator. We stop when we see Alex, James, and Justin. They do not look happy
"What's wrong" I ask
"We couldn't get a new phone because the store was closed" James says
"You just had to fall in the pool at 7 at night, didn't you" Justin says
"Sorry" James says
"Calm down, I'll give you the money for gas. For now, let's go to bed. We all have big days tomorrow" Alex says

Dream Dungeon
Welcome to the dream dungeon. Ely suddenly finds himself in a mysterious dungeon accessed only through sleeping. Many people are drawn into this dream world, confused and mystified. Those in this dungeon must kill monsters to survive; maybe even each other. Join Ely as he struggles to survive a ruthless environment. What replaces his rest is untold trauma. What seems like an innocent game trope turns into a nightmare. This is a story of tragedy and the path to ultimate power. All in the hopes of an uncertain survival. _________ This fiction has NOT been abandoned. I made a haughty promise earlier to not worry because I'll continue this series, and with things lately, I've only proved myself a liar. Further promises dwindled, and I've lost trust. So many things have been going on recently that I've been booked. I will refrain from making any future guarantees or promises as my busy schedule will stay with me for a long long while. Time for me to actually spend on writing and revising won't appear until at the least November 19. I won't say expect that's when I'll restart, but you can expect expecting it to maybe happen. That's really shallow. But with everything going on, I've let my small reading base down. I apologize. I still stick by my statement though that I won't abandon this project. I plan to stick it to the end, no matter the delay. Most importantly, thank you everyone; readers who both like and dislike my work. I appreciate your time spent on my dumb imagination. Stay toasty my readers in this winter season. Cheers. UPDATE: We're back on track. Thank you for your patience. Any future readers, heyo! Glad you're here. UPDATE 2: So far it's been 21 days since I last uploaded a chapter. The best thing done for any fiction, no matter how good it is, is that it continues, and I have a bad history with that. 1 fiction on hiatus and already more delays with less than 20 chapters in this fiction. I've been very preoccupied with adding more things to do in my life rather than actually committing to any particular thing. That applies primarily to this. I cannot abandon this, as busy as my future looks and will look as I get busier and busier. Someday, I hope, I will be able to sit down and just write. just. write. But for now, I ask for patience. I suppose I'm glad this fiction hasn't picked up so that I don't disappoint too many people if any really. But I need to commit and it's going to happen sometime and sometime soon. No more flowery words. I'll see you later. UPDATE 3: It's very evident I won't be able to pick up this story for a while. With AP Testing, competitions, and other things I am busier than ever. But I must complete this fiction. I have too. Until next time. UPDATE 4: It is now the summer. I owe everyone an apology. Chances are, nobody's around to see this, and that is okay. I only blame myself for this sort of brokenness of a fiction, not that it is actually that bad but I am just exaggerating it for dramatic effect.But what's not exaggerated is the severity of my broken promise. I apologize for my naive claims about finishing a novel that I couldn't finish and that I didn't have the discipline to finish. Nor the skills, really, I was and am still an immature writer.What is to place now? I want to make it clear I understand this is my fault. I will man up to this. And I will accept any criticism. I understand I messed up. Reading Stephen King's On Writing made it clear to me that I need to do two things:Read lots.And write lots.I have done neither. If I don't have the time to read often, how do I expect to write? I need to become more experienced. I need to become a serious writer.So if I want to dream of continuing, I need to at least fulfill both requirements. I enjoy writing. I haven't written seriously outside of school in a while. I planned to write this summer and finish this. I made a lot of promises that I didn't keep.So there's that. I won't enact any self-pity, or be foolishly obsessed. What I did was wrong, and I must deal with it. I let down readers. And I apologize.I hope I can find forgiveness. This is a writer's sin.I won't promise I'll finish this. I intend to finish this, at some point, because writing is fun and I want to write. But how things are don't reflect that. Maybe I'll finish this at some point. Maybe I won't. I won't be naive to make that promise.I thank everyone who has read this if this is the end. If not, and hopefully not, I thank everyone who is to read future chapters. I thank everyone who allowed me to live in the miniscule little dream of mine as I passed my days. I thank everyone who cares enough to read this. Until next time, peace everyone. Thank you. You are all great readers and great people. I wish everyone the best in whatever reading/writing endeavors follow you henceforth.
