《Sparks (Wattson x Octane)》Awkward // Ch.17
Advertisement
Ajay and I walk off the bus, I rub my eyes and pat my face to wake myself up a little more, "You guys stay here Ajay and I are gonna check all of us in. Got it?" Anita shouts before getting Ajay and heading into the resort. The driver starts to place all our luggage's on the ground for us to take inside.
"I really want to take a nap" I think to myself. I head over to the luggage pile and start scavenging for mine. After a few seconds of looking I finally found it. I also grabs Ajay's for when she comes back. I look over at Octavio whose oddly quiet. I want to talk to him but I don't have the courage to make a move. I can feel my heart racing at the thought of him.
Ajay and Anita walk out with a bunch of cards in hand. They start to pass them out in a specific order, "These are the keys to your rooms, fancy eh?" Anita says. I look at the room number on my key, "Room 114" I realize that everyone was already heading inside the resort without me. I hurry and catch up.
———
Everyone makes it upstairs to the rooms, I start to look around to find mine, "110...111...112...113...114!" I grab my keycard from my pocket and slide it in the keycard holder. I look over to my right, I see Octavio open the door next to mine, "Seems like we're neighbors." I think to myself, Octavio looks over at me and I smile, he looks at me for a few seconds and waves, we both head inside our room without saying a word to each other.
I enter my room and turn the lights on, "It's so cute!" I place my suitcase on the ground and start to explore my new home for a couple weeks, I lay on the soft white bed and I turn to my side, "This is gonna be amazing... hopefully. My number one priority is to have Octavio forgive me."

I start to unpack my things then hear a knock on the door. "Coming!" I rush to open the door, It's Anita. "Coming to the party happening later today?" I tilt my head in confusion "Party?"
"Yeah there's a party happening later today, it's gonna be fun, by the way can you tell Octavio about it?" she winks at me. "Wai-What?! I can't tell him, I don't think I can bring myself t-" she walks away, "What am I gonna do?" I look over at Octavio's room.
———
It's been ten minutes, I start pacing around in a circle at the front of his door, "What am I gonna do? What am I gonna do?!" I build up courage to knock, I slowly move my hand toward the door. I hesitate for a bit before knocking a couple times. I hear the door slowly opening, I start to panic. "Que pas-Nat?"
"Ther-ther-theres-" I keep stumbling over my words, "T-There's gonna be a garty d-downstairs later!" he looks at me "A garty? what's that?" I facepalm myself in embarrassment, how do I mess up the word "party." he starts to giggle "I meant a party!" I pout.
"You're still as cute as the day I met you." He covers his mouth with his arm and looks away. "So you gonna be there Nat?" I look down at my feet. "Y-yeah." I glance up at him "Cool..cool." I can feel my face turning red.
the tension between us is very awkward. "So i'll see you then, Nat?".... "Yeah." he waves goodbye before closing his door. I hurry back to my room and onto my bed. I grab a pillow and scream in it.
"I did it! I told him about the party!" I start to feel butterflies in my stomach. I borrow my head into the pillow. "I just wish it wasn't so awkward!" I can't take my mind off him, I don't try to stop it, I let my mind wander.
...
"Has he gotten cuter?"

COMMAND
"Sit. Stand. Don't. Enough. Leave. Come." Are the only words in the dictionary of Rogue Slade, the billionaire with the power to strip you of your will. He was smoldering, hypnotic, and alluring. But he was also unpredictable. Voted in high school as most likely to turn into a psychopath or an ax murderer. Beth Wallace had only seen him on the television or on the front pages of a magazine, but it was enough that she hoped to never cross path with someone who irked her. Until her friend, Hanna turned up missing, and Rogue Slade barged into her life like a bulldozer, threatening her peace. Hanna was the sister to Rogue's friend, and the last thing her brother heard from her was that she was meeting with someone named Beth. Beth swore she didn't know anything about Hanna's disappearance, but Rogue was hellbent on making her talk, even if it meant kidnapping her to his home, where he will exercise his power and dominance to find out the truth.

Romance - plus Judgemental Powers? Completed
Blue was a red headed boy who desperately wanted a girlfriend. So he asked the class beauty to walk home with him. She very nicely refused him. So he asked another girl in the same class, one with an average rating in the social status ranking. She also refused him. So, still desperate, he thinks – “I’m probably at the bottom of the ranking for boys in this class, so how about I ask the girl who is also at the lowest ranking?” The girl’s name was Pink. She said yes. Gulp. “What do I do now?” was his reaction. Well, obviously, have a romance. And, along the way, they get one hell of a lot more than they bargained for. Like, for example, supernatural Judgemental Powers. How did they get those? And that was only the start. The two most insignificant students in their class become famous. Not just in their class or even in their school, but to the population at large. They end up breaking and making the top politicians and rulers of their country. But finally, of course, they get what they wanted. A committed relationship. This is an Esmeralda the Angel of Death story. It follows on from my previous novel “Maybe it would have been a good idea not to wish for a harem?”, however it is a totally separate story with only a minimal overlap in the characters. There is no need to read the first story to enjoy this one. Although you just might enjoy the first story also… This story has multiple characters and multiple Points of View. Every POV change is clearly marked with a new header. Inside each POV section, the POV character’s thoughts are in italics. This story has about 105,000 words (about 380 RoyalRoad pages). It is fully written and proof read (the poor man’s proof read using Word). It has 25 chapters, and will be published at the rate of roughly one chapter per day.
