《falling for a tiktok boy》chapter: five

Payton's pov
After I woke Brynn and Jaden up I went downstairs and waited for them like everyone else. I couldn't believe what I just saw I know they were just cuddling but still. Rylie and me didn't even sleep in the same room and we're kinda secretly dating. I mean everyone knew we liked each other and we acted like a couple but we never told anyone we made it official. But I was happy for Brynn because Jaden is a good guy it's just weird seeing your sister with your best friend. We got onto the tour bus I sat with Riley and chaser. On the way there none of us really talked because it was early and we were all still tired.
Avanis pov
The meet and greet was about to start for some reason Trent put me right between Riley and Payton which was super awkward. I guess he didn't know about anything with me and Payton. The meet and greet was almost over so many fans asked about me and Payton and I got a lot of complements on my outfit.
This is what I wore
Jaden pov
The meet and greet was over I got a lot of questions about me and Brynn just because I posted that pic of her. It was now time for us to go up on stage. I stayed beside Brynn the entire time I gave her a few piggy back rides and people kept screaming BADEN which I guess was me and Brynns ship name. We didn't have dinner dates tonight Trent said we aren't starting them until our next stop. We all went back to Taylor's and packed our stuff up because we were going to Washington next. We were going to be on the road all night. All the girls went out to grab dinner they said they were having a little girls night before they had to spend all night with us on the tiny bus. They promised to bring us some food back so all the boys stayed at Taylor's and packed. I got a shower and changed into sweats. I ran to the store and got Brynn a neck pillow, her favourite snacks, and a blanket for the road. Everyone got back packed and on the bus I was really upset when I got on and saw Brynn sitting beside Josh. The only open seats were in the back beside Anthony. I sat with him and kept everything I got for Brynn since she was busy with Josh. Anthony and me made tik-toks on the bus.

Brynns pov
Jaden was the last one on the bus which sucked because I was saving a seat for him but then Josh just came up and sat beside me. When he got on and saw I was sitting with Josh he looked upset. Josh tried to talk to me but I told him I was tired from today and turned to the window and went to sleep. I woke up a few hours later and it was the middle of the night everyone was asleep except Jaden who was on his phone. I crawled over Josh and went back to Jaden. He saw me coming back and looked at me in shock. I sat beside him and grabbed his face so he would look at me. "Jaden please don't be upset I was saving that seat for you but then Josh took it. I didn't even talk to him I just went to sleep." I pleaded hoping he would forgive me.
"I am not mad I was just looking forward to sitting with you." He said while grabbing something under his seat it was a bag. He pulled out a neck pillow a blanket and all my favourite snacks. "I got these for you so you would be comfortable." He said while putting everything on my lap.
"Awh Jaden you're so sweet." I said smiling I got the blanket out and cuddled with Jaden until we both fell asleep.
Chases pov
I woke up it was about seven in the morning. I looked over at Jaden and Brynn and they were sleeping. They looked so cute cuddled up in the blanket. I took a picture and posted it. Brynn's phone immediately started blowing up that's when I knew I was in trouble.
Brynns pov
My phone was going crazy with notifications from Instagram. What do you know the first thing that popped up said Chase Hudson tagged you in a photo. "What did you do Huddy" I said looking at him with an evil smirk.

Anthony's pov
We made it to the hotel Josh and me were sharing a room. I was hoping Jaden and Brynn weren't I didn't want them to get closer before I had a chance with Brynn. I saw her in the lobby so I decided to go up and talk to her. "Hey Brynn what room are you in?" I asked her.
"Well we are all on the second floor I'm in room 208." She said getting out her key card.
"Awesome I'm in room 209 so we should be right across from each other." I said smiling at her. "Who are you staying with I am with Josh."
"My room has 4 people staying in it. It's Avani, Madi, Riley, and me. Then Jaden, Payton, and Chase are right beside us. I'm glad we're all Super close" she said.
"Me too this is going to be so much fun. We should go out to dinner tonight." I said basically asking her on a date but she didn't get the memo considering what came out of her mouth.
"Yeah that would be great I'm starving. Let me text the group chat and ask them where they want to go." She said getting her phone out.
"Perfect" I said while I put on a fake smile.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.

Eleknar's Heir, The Infernal Prince (Demonic LitRPG)
A LitRPG and Epic Fantasy adventure: The son of a mafia boss finds himself abruptly plunged into an alternate world where he must find a way to survive the horrors of a realm called Oblivion, make pacts with demons, form unnatural friendships, and figure out what the hell is going on – all while dealing with the depressing reality of his past. An artificial intelligence has ascended into godhood and has thrown Trey’s home into Chaos, pulling millions of people into an enchanted new life... or, in Trey's case, a violent nightmare. As far as he can tell, he is locked into what the system prompts call a ‘Death Game.’ Here, artificial reality is manufactured for the enjoyment of a being called the All Spirit, and he has a very real chance of truly dying. Just how real is this place though? Is it merely a simulation, a realistic game of life and death… or is it something much more? Elves, dwarves, undead, and other races only thought to exist in fairy tales are now a reality. Black magics, pantheons of gods at odds with one another, predatory symbiotes, and an unholy calling, the significance of which he has yet to grasp, are all entangled with his fate. ============================================ ============================================ Some things to expect when reading this book series: - Brutal storyline where no character is safe and choices have real consequences. Heavy on action, survival, and adventure - An isekai. The main character struggles to find himself, repeatedly crossing the line between good and evil as other important characters influence his life - Harem (explicit), though this only starts about 180k words in. - Good amounts of crafting, town building, and guild building later on - Good amounts of fantasy-related LitRPG stats, rank ups, and evolutions. Heavy focus on demons and black magics - There will be many points of view, but there is only one primary/main character that takes up 90% of the POV - A long storyline. Currently (as of 7/26/2021) I have about 1500k words written, though much of it will have to be heavily edited and re-written. I also plan to go far beyond 1500k words if people like the story (A lot of it is also in the 'backstories' book that explores the guildmates, the link is below) - Chapters will have an average of about 4k-5k words, a little longer than most other books on RR, though there will be exceptions for more and less. I just didn't like posting chapters that didn't feel complete, and 2k words often felt like too little. - If you like super-heroic and goody-goody characters, this story is not for you. ***Updated once a week***
