《Crystal Blue Disguise (Avenged Sevenfold)》Chapter 26
Advertisement
I arrive at Becca's at exactly 6 o'clock. I walk up to her front door and take a deep breath before ringing her doorbell. She opens the door with a smile and I just stare at her in awe. She's wearing a strapless black dress that hugs her figure perfectly and cuts off about halfway down her thighs.
“W-wow... You look great.”
“Thank you,” she blushes.
I nod and hand her a bouquet of roses.
“I bought you these.”
“Oh Jim, they're beautiful! Thank you. I'm gonna go put them in a vase. Come in.”
“Okay.”
I smile and walk in the house. She closes the door behind me and heads into the kitchen. I follow her and watch as she puts the flowers in a vase on the counter.
“I can't wait for our date.”
“Good. It'll be great,” I smile.
“Good.”
She turns to me and grabs her purse off the counter.
“I'm ready.”
“Wonderful.”
I grab her hand and lead her out to my car, opening the passenger side door for her.
“Such a gentleman.”
“I try,” I chuckle.
I close her door and go around to get in my side. I smile over at her before starting the car and driving out of her driveway and down the street. We sit in silence the entire drive, but I can't help but to occasionally glance over at her. She's absolutely beautiful. I can't believe I'm actually going on a date with her. I thought she would have said no because of how much of a dick I was to her. I pull up to the restaurant I'm taking her to and park the car. I'm taking her to the best restaurant in Huntington because I feel she deserves it and well, she fits in pretty well with the scene. I get out of the car and go around to open her door for her.

“Thank you.”
“Anytime, beautiful.”
She smiles and gets out of the car. I close the door and lead her inside to the Maître d.
“Reservation for Sullivan.”
“Ah yes. Follow me.”
I smile at Becca and lead her to where the gentleman takes us. He seats us at a private table and hands us menus.
“Your waiter will be with you momentarily.”
He walks off and I smile at Becca, grabbing her hand. She blushes, smiling back and giving my hand a gentle squeeze. I hope this date goes as planned.

Mother of Learning
Zorian is a teenage mage of humble birth and slightly above-average skill, attending his third year of education at Cyoria's magical academy. He is a driven and irritable young man, consumed by a desire to ensure his own future and free himself of the influence of his family, whom he resents for favoring his brothers over him. Consequently, he has no time for pointless distractions or paying attention to other people's problems. As it happens, time is something he is about to get plenty of. On the eve of the Cyoria's annual summer festival, he is killed and brought back to the beginning of the month, just before he was about to take a train to Cyoria. Suddenly trapped in a time loop with no clear end or exit, Zorian will have to look both within and without to unravel the mystery before him. And he does have to unravel it, for the time loop hadn't been made for his sake and dangers lurk everywhere... Repetition is the mother of learning, but Zorian will have to first make sure he survives to try again - in a world of magic, even a time traveler isn't safe from those who wish him ill. ********************************** If anyone is interested, I have a story-related worldbuilding site that can be found here. I don't update it as often as I should, but there is a fair amount of content there already. It also contains a page with all the fanart, fan translations, audio books and the like - you can reach it directly by clicking this link. I have a patreon account for those kind people that want to give me money. It also contains info for those who want to donate via paypal. The story was originally posted on fictionpress, back in 2011. When I reached chapter 91, I started uploading the story to RoyalRoad, one chapter per day. The story will continue to be updated on fictionpress as well as here, and can be reached by clicking on this link if somebody is interested, though at this point there is nothing there that isn't also on RoyalRoad. ********************************** The cover you see on the side has been made by a fellow RoyalRoad user Sydorow.
