What do you think?
Anyways let me know and enjoy!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nick's POV (From chapter 27)
She smiled and I went back in the diner. Megan didn't look at me instead she looked at Abby and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes when I sat down.
She finally looked at me and I sighed.
"What?" She smiled and shook her head.
"N-nothing. So listen, we have another docter's appointment to go too so don't flake out on me again."I smiled and said.
"I didn't flake out on you. I had to work. Who else is gonna buy stuff for our baby and pay the doctor's bill." She shrugged and said.
"Do you think we should tell Greg and Cassie?"I looked at her for a minute. I mean it's not like they won't find out soon. I shrugged and said.
"If you want too." She nodded and drunk her coffee which I so strongly disapprove of. I mean couldn't she just drink water? I sighed and said.
"Come on, I gotta take you home. Your mom is gonna kill me if I interrupt her plans again." She smiled and rolled her eyes.
~*~
"Greg, I'm telling you man. Don't do it."
"Why not?"
"Because, Abby is gonna be pissed - and you know what? I'm not gonna have any part of this."
"Yeah well your driving me to his house so you are taking part." I looked out the front window as we pulled up to his house. OH BOY!
(I really don't like writing fight scenes so you can just imagine =) And you should probably know my brohther wrote the one at the party!)
"Gregory!" His mom shouted at him. We were both in the kitchen and he was being scolded for beating Abe up.
"What mom?"
"You know better then to go around spreding violence!"
"Mom! That kid needed to be taught a lesson! He made my sister, who I love! Cry!" I smiled and shook my head. Which is the exact same thing she did before she turned to me.
"I can't believe you didn't stop him." I put my hands up in a defensive manner and said.
"If it helps, I was the one who said no." She chuckled and Abby walked in.
"Said no to what?" She looked at me and I shook my head.
"Nothing."
"Yeah Abby Normal, nothing!" She rolled her eyes and left. I followed her the whole way. Can she get any more pretty?
~*~
I hadn't talked to Abby since then and before I knew it, it was her birth day. I had strict orders from Megan not to get her anything so I just got flowers. I wanted to get her card and tell her why I don't- well can't be with her.
I wanted to tell her how I felt, but I couldn't, it just didn't feel right to put on a card. I wanted to tell her in person and plus I couldn't find the right words.So i gave the flowers to Greg and left before she saw me. Which brings me to my current location.
Laying down on my couch listening to Anna sing Lolipop by Framing Hanley. I sighed heavily and said.
"Anna! Can you please stop singing that!" She stood up and pouted.

"Why?"
"Because. It's inappropriate."
"Mona let's me sing it."
"Well I'm sorry but I'm not Mona." She sighed dramatically and rolled her eyes.
"Fine!" She ran down the hall singing Fireflies and I shook my head. I swear the older she get's the worst she get's.
~*~
Weeks past and before I knew it was in the middle of August. Megan had gone back to school and I had only a few more weeks left with my best friend. Besides Darci. She's not going to college and we found ourselves working at the same place so I'll always be with her.
I sighed and sat down. We chad finally closed after a long day of work.
"What's wrong Nick? Can't take a lousy job?" She slung the rag over her shoulder and sat down next to me. I wasn't ready for this. This new found father hood. I thought it was gonna be easy but there ws only so much I could do. I had to pay the bills at my own house, then I had to buy food for me and my sisters', then there was Megan and the baby. I barely had enough money for gas and I had been forced to get a second job and take on extra hours.
My mom doesn't do anything and this is all too much for me.
I guess I was so lost in thought I didn't notice Darci had shut off all the lights.
"You coming?" I cleared my throat and got up.
"Yeah."
When I got home I saw suitcases on the floor by the front door and a bottle of wine on the kitchen table.
I walked in the living room and saw my mom crying with a glass in her hand.
"What's going on?" She jumped at my voice and stood up whiping away her tears.
"I'm leaving. I can't stay here anymore."
"What do you mean you can't stay here anymore? What about us?"
"Your eighteen Nick. You can do all of this. And you can do it way better then me. I didn't mean for this to happen. I never wanted children. I never this life. But it happened and-" She shrugged and I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
"What did we ever do to you?"
"Nothing! It's just..." She shook her head and started putting her shoes on. She went to the door and I followed her. She picked her stuff up and I just stood there.
"I'm sorry." She opened the door and walked out.
"Mom?" She turned to look at me and I said.
"Don't come back." As much as it hurt me I had to say it. She cried and got in her car then drove away.
~*~
I knocked on Megans front door but no one answered. She didn't call me back after the doctors appointement. I know I bailed but my boss is an ass and he wouldn't let me take off. And I know she wasn't mad at me for just that. It's been four whole days since she talked to me. Doesn't she know how completely paranoid I am?
I stood there for another minute before her mom opened the door.
"Hey Mrs. Sommers' is Megan home?" She looked at me with a sad smile and nodded.
"Can I see her?" She shook her head and said.
"She doesn't wanna see you. I'm so sorry Nick." She looked like she was gonna cry.
"S-sorry for what? Why doesn't she wanna see me?" She started to talk when her dad came up.

"Nick. You wanna come in?" Okay he's inviting me in and she won't let me in. This is really confusing.
"Yeah I do but-" After a minute of trying to make her let me in they both stepped out of the way and I walked in.
"Where's Megan?"
"She's up staires in her room. You can go up there but she's not talking to anyone." I nodded and went up staires.
What is going on? I knocked on her door but no one answered.
"Megan. Megan open the door." Still no answer.
Okay if you don't open the door I'm just gonna come in." nothing.
"Okay 1, 2, 3-" She opened the door with tear filled eyes. And I looked at her confused.
"What's wrong megan?" She didnt answer she just started crying some more.
"Megan is something wrong?"
"Yes there is somehong wrong, I went to the hospital the other day without you and it wasn't a normal checkup, it was me in the emergency room because I wouldn't stop bleeding and I called you by you didn't answer you-" She stopped talking and tears streamed down her face I went to hug her but she pushed me away.
"Megan I-"
"No save it nick our baby is dead so it looks like you don't have to be stuck with me anymore. Now leave." With that she slammed the door in my face and I felt like a part of me had died well technically it did but I never thought I'd be this broken, that was my baby and now he's gone and now so is Megan, I don't have anything. I started out the front door wihout even saying goodbye.
I got in my car and for the first time in a long time I cried.
~*~
I looked in the mirror at myself and did a failure attempt to tie my tie. Greg laughed and shook his head.
"You suck."
"Whatever man." After giving it another try I gave up and sat down rubbing my hands through my hair. I can't deal with this now. I can't deal with anything right now. I have had more then a hundred mans worth of sorrows in my whole life and it doesn't even seem like it's getting better.
"Can you believe this guy asked me to be his best man?" I chuckled and shook my head.
"No I can't believe it Greg."
"Yeah. He's the enemy! Why would I wanna be his best man?"
"He is not the enemy Greg. He's your step dad."
"Ugh! I hate that word." I shook my head and looked at myself in the mirror in front of me. He's complaining about getting a new dad and I don't even have one. And he thinks he's got it bad. At least he has someone who actually wants to be in his life. He has everything and I have nothing.
After sitting there listening to him complain I just stood up, shook my head, and walked out. What is wrong with him? He yelled at me and said.
"Where the heck are you going?"
"Anywhere but in there." He rolled his eyes and we heard laughing coming from the girls room.He motioned for me to follow and I reluctantly obeyed.
"...Hilarious!" Greg and I walked in and saw Alison and Abby laughing.
"What's hilarious?" I sat down and Abby answered nothing. Which is fine with me because I didn't really care. I have way better things to worry about, then what they were talking about.
Out of one ear I heard Greg insult Alison and she rolled her eyes. i laughed through my nose and felt Abby look at me. I couldn't look back at her though. My guilt wouldn't let me. Out of the blue she rambled something about having to go and I just barely had a chance to say something.
They were gone and I'd missed my chance. Not like I could say something in front of all these people. I'm such a screw up. And I'll never get anything. I guess that saying they say is really true. And I probably should have listened.
"If you can't find the one you love, love the one your with." Greg chuckled and said.
"What?" I shook my head.
"Nothing." I can't believe I said that out loud.

The Recently added part................
Nick's POV (After they kissed at the wedding... Don't remember? Here let me help you!)
He brushed my hair out of my face and I smiled even more. I have waited for this my entire life!
He leaned down and then he kissed me. It was magic, the way his lips connected with mine. It was right, and somehow, among all of the dizziness and the clinging to him like a life line, something inside me changed, never to be reversed. This new feeling could be dwelled upon later, because, for now, I was content to feel his breath come and go with mine.
I pulled out of the kiss and she looked confused, but all I can think about was how absolutely beautiful she was. I smiled and she did the same. We stayed like this for a whole minute I'm not even exaggerating. Until that idiot Greg came.
"What are you guys doing? Having some kind of weird mind moment?" I sighed and Abby rolled her eyes.
"Go. Away Greg. Were busy." He scoffed and said.
"You know what. There is something really fishy on here and I will find out what it is. Because you won't tell me anything and neither. Will. You! And YOUR supposed to be my best friend."i rolled my eyes and Abby looked at him like he was crazy.
"Greg. Calm down. If you must know-"
"Me and Nick just had a full blown make out session and were getting together." He looked from her to me and then back at her again.
"Fine, don't tell me." My eyes widened and he walked away. Can he be any more oblivious? Abby looked at me and I smiled. I grabbed her hand and said.
"Come on."
"Where are we going?"
"Just come on." She reluctantly followed me outside and we started walking.
"I have to apologize for alot of things." She stopped and looked at me.
"Alot of things like what?"
"Like..." I trailed off and sighed.
"I don't know. Like what I said to you in New York... I lied." She let go of my hand and I turned to face her.
"Lied about what?"
"I mean... Technically, I never really said I didn't like you but I might as well had. And you should know that, I loved kissing you. And I loved being with you that night. It's just Megan..." She looked at me and I guess she was waiting for me to continue but I couldn't. Should I even tell her about the baby? I mean it wouldn't hurt for her to know but then again what she doesn't know won't hurt her. But that would still technically be lying. I sighed and shook my head. This is stupid. I'M stupid. I grabbed her hand and half smiled.
"Let's just be together. Okay?" She smiled and nodded.
"I mean... We've wasted so much time. Keeping all of our feelings to ourself. And I'm sorry, if I hurt you. Please don't be mad at me. Please?"
"Nick. I am not mad at you. None of that matters now. Okay?" I chuckled softly and shook my head.
"Okay." She gave me a soft peck on the lips and I quickly deepend it. She was shocked at first but didn't break it. I pulled her closer to me and we kissed for what seemed like an hour. That is until someone had to come out and be a total buzz kill.
"Oh my god!" She pulled away and I looked at Greg who was in a state of shock. I mean, it's not like she didn't tell him.
"I cannot believe this! You weren't kidding."
"Of course I wasn't kidding Greg, why would I joke about something like that?"
"This is jus- this is despicable. I cannot believe you! Get inside young lady we are gonna have a LONG talk when we get home!" He dragged her inside and she waved at me which caused him to grab her other hand.
"Do NOT wave at him! I'm gonna deal with you later!" I smiled and shook my head at him. He is crazy. Sometimes I wonder why he's my best friend anyways. He's weird.

Tempest Rogue
This story follows Auron, a man who has been plagued with vivid nightmares his entire life. While running away from a beating, a splitting headache causes him to fall to his knees. Once again his nightmares bleed into reality. The next "episode" he has brings him from the scene of his nightmare, to a posionous swamp. To make matters worse his memories from earth are fading, and these nightmares that plagued his childhood, filled with darkness and a red coocoon, are back and worse than ever. As he clings to the only memories he has left, he is forced to fight through a world of brutal blood thirsty monsters, dungeons, and a complex magic system governed by an ancient agreement. First time writing any sort of story. Everything is still a work in progress. As I improve on my writing I will go back and edit parts. Early chapters are subject to change as I grow my ability. I am going to try my best to write this world and improve as I go. My goal is to make my dream come to life through the medium of text. This is why I wanted to post it here. Feel free to comment, and bring constructive criticism. Hope you enjoy! More info (Spoiler warning): only read if you are picky, read a lot, and want to waste no time with a story you may not want read. This book is a litrpg. This means it contains stat tables, and other game elements. (Which you may gloss over if you would like) It is written in a fantasy world, in the style of a progression fantasy. The main character grows in power as the story plays out. My characters are written to my best ability, but you may find them immature. The MC has to adjust to fighting, and killing which he struggles with for a while. His partner is a magical salamander who is a friend and mentor. The world building, monsters, and descriptions are also low tier. (I am working hard to change that!) If you are okay reading something by someone who is just getting started then welcome! I am doing my best, and incrementally improving as I go.
