《Tough Love》Chapter 8: Loving You.

Ariana's POV:
I woke up by the chirps of little birds outside of my bedroom window, the first thing that popped into my mind was about yesterday. Yesterday was a good day, I met up with Nathan, Jai and Justin and it was fun. Justin told me a lot of stories, some seemed very embarrassing because when Nath and Jai finally arrived, Nathan was blushing because of what Justin told me. Aw, but that little smile he pulled and how his cheeks turned rosy red was probably the cutest thing I've ever seen. But the stories weren't that bad. They made me laugh, but face it, I laugh at everything. Jai had this straight, serious face through out the entire 2 hours we were there, he pulled a smile and laughed a couple of times, but I'm guessing maybe he's just not that confident of a person. Justin seemed so happy and playful, he was so sweet and it looked like he had a really good time. There was something about these 3 boys that I really loved.
*Ding!* I heared my phone go. It was Alexa. I haven't talked to her for a while now, I wonder how she's doing.
CONVERSATION:
Alexa: "Hey bestie."
Ariana: "Hey!!"
Alexa: "So, how's L.A. Made any new friends yet? We haven't talked in like forever."
Ariana: "It's amazing here! In the past couple of days I met 3 boys. They are really lovable. How's it in Florida? Miss me?"
Alexa: "Oh, well I'm glad your enjoying it there and made new friends. Boyfriends! Ha ha. I miss you loads and it's still pretty much the same. Except I'm lonely. Oh so lonely. You better visit me soon."
Ariana: "Yes, I will visit soon. I MISS YOU SO MUCH MS. LONELY. They aren't my boyfriends, what am I... three timing? No way!"
Alexa: "Yes, CHEATER."
Ariana: "Ha ha... NO."
Alexa: "I have to go now, bye Ari!! I can't wait to see you, visit me or else. I miss you so much!."

Ariana: "Kk, bye Alexa. Miss you too."
END OF CONVERSATION.
After talking to Alexa I got hungry, so I went downstairs to see what was in the fridge. I opened the fridge to see nothing.
"MOM!" I screamed.
"Yes, dear." She said.
"There's no food." I said with a sad face.
SILENCE.
"Ariana, honey." She said.
"Yes, mom." I said.
"If there's no food in the fridge what do you call this?" She said showing me fruits, leftovers, and vegetables
"Oh..." I said.
*FACEPALMS* "Oh Ariana." She said.
I laughed.
I took the leftovers and microwaved it. I turned on the T.V to see that they were airing re-runs of my favourite show Pretty Little Liars. *BEEP BEEP BEEP* I heared the mircowave in the kitchen. I quickly ran to the kitchen and took out my food and dug in.
END OF POV.
Justin's POV:
Yesterday was amazing. I got to be with my best buds and the girl that I love. I loved how she smiled and laughed at all the stories I told her about us. Even if the stories were pretty embarrssing. My schedule was pretty empty today and I was pretty hungry, so I decided to just go out for food.
Before I left I looked in the mirror to check myself out, looking good, I look good. While admiring myself for like 2 minutes I heard my phone ring. It was Nathan. I picked up the phone to hear a big "HELLO?"
CONVERSATION:
Nathan: "HELLO?"
Justin: "HI!"
Nathan: "I'm hungry take me out to eat NOW!"
Justin: "NO!"
Nathan: "Why not?" Sad voice.
Justin: "Because this sounds like a date."
Nathan: "Please?"
Justin: "FINE!"
Nathan: "So, where are we going?"
Justin: "Well, you should've thought of that first, before asking me out."
Nathan: "Well...well... LET'S GO TO MCDONALDS!!"
Justin: "Okay, I'll meet you there @3:35pm. And please promise me you'll never ask me on a date EVER again."

Nathan: "FINE!"
END OF CONVERSATION.
Justin's POV:
Me and Nath are going out to eat, I decided to invite Jai to tag along, it could be an all boy's day. Besides, I really wanna talk about how we all met Ariana, I was curious. I honestly want Ariana to fall for me, I mean I'm flawless, I'm funny, and Ariana laughed at all my jokes and stories. She's adorable. Okay, putting that a side, I called Jai.
CONVERSATION:
Justin: "Hey Jai."
Jai: "Hey buttface."
Justin: "You're such an asshole, anyway, do you want to go and get McDonalds with me and Nath?"
Jai: "Yeah, sure. There's something I wanted to talk to you guys about, so I'll see you soon. What time?"
Justin: "Oh, okay. Um, 3:35 pm."
Jai: "K, see you there bitch."
Justin: "Yeah, I love you too, you're such an ass"
END OF CONVERSATION.
Justin's POV:
I arrived at McDonalds already finding Nathan sitting there. I waved at him with a warm smile on my face, Nathan's like my brother, my brother from another mother. We're like best friends. "Hey, Nath" I said smiling, "Hey, Justin" he smiled back. "Have you seen Jai yet?" I asked "No" "Oh there he is" I said pointing out at the door.
Jai came over and said "Hi", he sat down and we all started talking about Ariana. It was kind of obvious we all really liked her, it was like non-stop talking about Ariana and her flawless looks, not forgetting her amazing personality. I was thinking about what would happen if one of us had a chance to date her, but what would happen to our friendship, we've known each for like 4-5 years now and we can't let some girl ruin it, no matter how madly in love we were.
END OF POV:
Nathan's POV:
I met up with Justin and Jai at McDonalds, and guess what we were talking about? Ariana. It's insanely obvious that we all really like her, although, I think if one out of all 3 of us had a chance to date her, it would be Justin. I mean, he's handsome, and he's literally perfect, I'm not gay but it's true. Ariana's perfect as well so they'll both fit together perfectly. I doubt that I'll even have a chance with her, she seems to like Justin... a lot, and Justin seems really like her back. I can't compete with him.
END OF POV.
Ariana's POV:
After I finished eating and watching Pretty Little Liars, I went into my room to go on my laptop. I went on Facebook and started looking through my pictures. My pictures were all taken in Florida, I miss it there so much. Since I haven't had a new profile picture in a while I decided to take some random selfies.
Today was a nice day. I was doing absolutely nothing. I wonder what Jai, Nathan and Justin are doing. Probably hanging out together since they're best friends. I love hanging out with them and I think I kind of like them... That can't be, can it?
I just realized that mom and Frankie aren't home... Where are they? I quickly dialed Frankie's number.
CONVERSATION:
Ariana: Hello, Frankie? Where are you and mom?
Frankie: Hey Ari! Me and mom went to pick up something.
Ariana: Without me?
Frankie: Well, we wanted to get you a surprise.
Ariana: WHAT IS IT?
Frankie: You'll find out when we get home.
Ariana: Fine, bye.
Frankie: Bye.
END OF CONVERSATION.
I wonder what the surprise was. I hope it's something I can use. Maybe it could be One Direction, you never no right? Something could be anything and One Direction is something. Ha ha. I just wish he would tell me! Let's just say I have no patience.

Second Patriarch: Rise of the Liu Clan
After the death of his father, Liu Zhu must prevail over his older brother in order to become the Liu Clan's second patriarch and bring his family to glory within Yutian Country. In the process Liu Zhu will come across lucky chances, have brushes with death, and slowly expand his world beyond that of the small country he lives in. NOTE: Currently dropped for various reasons. The short version of why I dropped it is because even the shortest form of my outlining resulted in a main plot of at least 300 - 400 chapters and I messed up massively by directly adapting it from my first attempt at this, which was a choose your own adventure on another website. It did not make the jump well at all imo.

I'm Always Talking to Myself
My name is Zach. I’m a typical bland featureless protagonist type. The kind of guy who has purposefully few defining characteristics so that people can project whatever they want on me. Like Luke from Star Wars or what’s her name from Twilight. Most main characters are like me. Kind of flavorless blank slates because we all secretly doubt that we’re Harrison Ford, but pretty much anyone could be Mitt Romney. Yep. Yes indeed, I do spend basically my entire life running an internal dialog to no one. Usually I’m imagining that there are people listening. Like maybe philosophers from Ancient Greece, or researchers from another planet who act suspiciously like the characters from that Instagram comic with the aliens. Stupid Instagram comedians stealing my internal monologue and turning into a wildly successful enterprise which I would imagine has a vibrant merch dropshipping arm and hundreds of thousands of daily dopamine hits for loyal followers. I basically spend all of my time explaining random things to imaginary people (and aliens, and animals, and household items which have inexplicably gained sentience and frankly have some concerns about this whole existence thing). Honestly, it’s both highly entertaining to me, in that it makes me think about why we humans do all of the bizarre things that we do, but also horrifically exhausting and kind of makes you feel like you’re either, worst cast, losing your grip on reality, or best case, becoming Abed from Community. Anyway, I’m sure that I have some distinguishing characteristics, but, in the interest of hypnotic suggestion I’m choosing to omit them until I’m pretty sure that you have subconsciously come to identify with me, or until I feel like it. (By the way, in case I forgot to mention it, a higher power called Aww Thor or something told me to say that this is a slice-of-life comedy adventure and that it's set in a fantasy world with isekai and LitRPG elements.)
