Advertisement
On Sunday Morning I was up to the sound of my mother singing. She likes to sing when she cooks. She used to sing on cruise ships but that was many moons ago.
I get up and go to my en suite bathroom. I get into the shower.
After that I put on my Black dress.
I go downstairs to see my Brother and Jim watching the football. I sigh. What is it with men and football. All it is a bunch of over paid men kicking a ball around, trying to get it into a net.
I sit next to my sister at the table.
I go to get out my phone from my pocket.
It's gone!.....
I look around the room but I can't see it anywhere.
"Looking for this?" My sister asks holding up my phone.
" What are you doing with that" I say trying to take it from her.
" Just friends heh?, 4 texts from him in the past 5 hours. Doesn't sound like just friends to me" She says holding up the phone.
"Stop acting like a child" I say grabbing the phone from her.
I look at my phone. She's rightish I look at the first message.
sorry for the late reply, I decided to message you from here as is easier. That sounds great I look forward to meeting you again darling. Tom
then the next message:
Hi, I hope you don't mind but I followed you on Twitter. You are most interesting. Tom.
I reply:
of course I isn't mind it is a pleasure, see you Tuesday :).
the other two messages are not from him but my boss.
' I hope you liked the new car, just one of the many perks of this Job. M'.
I reply: It was very unexpected, thank you :).
I decide to switch off my phone as this is a family day and I don't want to get distracted.
"So mother what do you have planned for today?" I ask while putting my phone in my pocket.
" Well we are all going to London".
" But I live there". I say.
" Yes but your sister has never been and what with her living in Australia she might not get that chance for a long time.

Great I trek about 2 hours to see my family just so we can go to London. I should have just have stayed at home. There crazy.
"Fine" I sigh.
" Good go tell your father we are ready to go" she tells me.
" Is he in his work shop?" I ask.
" He hardly leaves it nowadays" she say sighing.
" Dad, we are ready to go to my place" I say walking into his workshop.
" Your mothers ideas not mine" he says getting up.
" I know". I sigh.
" She just wants to make sure your ok" he says.
" She wants to spy on me". I say.
" That your mother you" he laughs.
--
I Drive my brother in my car after his constant begging and the others follow behind.
" This must have cost your boss a fortune" He exclaims while looking around the inside.
" Exactly, so scratch anything and I'll kill you" I smirk.
He smirks. " Think you could get me one?" He asks.
" Keep dreaming brother" I laugh.
" You never know, it was worth a try". he smirks.
When we finally get into the centre of London the place is packed.
We drive for ages trying to find somewhere to park.
in the end we have to park in an over priced car park that charges £8 an hour!.
" Do they like to rip you off in London?" My father asks.
" All the time" I laugh.
We decide to do a little bit of light shopping. My sister is looking baby clothes. We go through loads of shops and it begins to get boring, I have round these shops many times before.
" How about we go for Lunch, I know a very nice restaurant" I suggests.
" Sounds great" my dad say.
The restaurant was the one where I first met my boss, it is quite fancy and I am a regular there so there is no problem with getting a table.
" Ah Sarah, very nice to see you how's the career going?" the waiter asks as we walk in.
" It's great Pablo, I haven't booked but I am here with my family, could I maybe get a seat?" I ask him.

" Of course, how many is it for?" He asks.
"um..6 please Pablo"
" Make that 7" I hear a voice say from behind me.
" Tom!, what are you doing here?" I say shocked.
My sister has almost fainted.
" The same reason as everyone else Darling, you don't mind me joining you do you?" He says smiling.
" Well I am kind of....
"Of course she doesn't mind!" my sister say excited.
" Well great, Pablo a table for 7 would be good" he says turning to Pablo.
"Of course sir, follow me". Pablo says showing us to a table.
" Did you invite him?" My sister whispers.
" No and I did not know he would be here" I tell her.
We get our table. I sit down and tom sits down right next to me.
Great, my family are embarrassing as it is and I know my sister will say something about this.
" I am sorry if this is a little rude, I just saw you and well I don't really like eating out on my own" he whispers to me.
" Honestly it is no problem, it is me who should be sorry for what's about to happen" I reply.
" What do you mean?" He asks confused.
" My family".
He laughs." I am sure they will be very nice".
" You haven't spoke to them yet" I smirk.
" So Tom are you my Sarah's new fella, she keeps telling us she doesn't have one but I don't believe her".
I choke on my drink.
"Mother!" I say. not again...
Tom laughs. " It is fine, no I'm not Mrs Pennington, your Daughter is lovely but we have only just met" He smiles.
"But you like her?" My sister asks.
I put my hands on my head in shame.
he smirks. " She seems lovely but you can not really tell till know them enough whether or not you really like them" he says.
My sister is about to ask another question when kick her under the table.
" Tom why don't you help me get the next round of drinks" I suggest as I am scared to leave him alone with them.
"Yes of course". he says getting up.
" I am terribly sorry about them, they can be ever so embarrassing" I say to him while we are waiting for the drinks.
"Honestly, I don't mind, there quite charming" he smiles.
He is so nice about everything.
" I hope you don't mind me asking but do you have someone special in your life right now?" He asks.
"Um....No not right now". I say.
" Good" he says.
I look at him in shock, did he just say good?.
" And you?" I ask.
" Nope not for a little while, I am looking for that right one, the true love" he says.
" Is there really such thing, I mean of course there is people you can love and people you are close too but is there really such thing as true love?" I ask him.
I look into his eyes, there so beautiful......I am doing it again.
" Of course there is, you may not realizes it at first but the right ones out their" He says looking right at me.
" Maybe your right" I say picking up some of our drinks.
" Did you talk about anything interesting?" My sister smirks as we sit back down.
"Yes your big gob" I say glaring at her.
" So Tom, why did you want to do this behind the camera show?" My brother asks him. Finally a decent question.
" For my fans the most,I wanted them to see that I am the same guy behind all the films and the red carpets" he says.
" So it is not for the money?, do you get a lot of money?" He asks.
I sigh.
" The money helps but I am not that kind if guy, if the job isn't for me even if I was offered millions I wouldn't take it" Tom smiles.
I listen to Tom answering questions and every so often our eyes would meet.
Could I really like him?

Trial of Champions
It all began with a family trip to an amusement park. How were any of us to expect being transported from Earth to participate in some "Trial of Champions," whatever that was supposed to be? Given only an hour to choose the Classes that would come to define our strengths, we were almost immediately torn away from one another and thrust into a deadly game of survival. It wasn't all bad, though, as terrifying as it could be from time to time. The supernatural and magical powers of the Classes were like something out of an RPG, complete with leveling up by killing monsters and completing so-called "Sub-Trials." And despite the juicy Experience to be gained from killing other Champion Contestants, not all of the participants were bloodthirsty murderers; some could be allied with, or even befriended. Even if it seemed like everyone who had been chosen for this Trial, no matter what universe they came from, was at least a little bit crazy. I would survive this till the end, and I'd make sure that my siblings and parents did as well, no matter how many times we were separated from one another. No matter how long it took. No matter what I had to do. --- A first-person litRPG incorporating classes inspired by D&D and other sources. If you like blue boxes but don't need to have huge lists of numbers to scratch your itch, you should be satisfied on that front. Each chapter is, in my word processing document, seven pages long (approximately 3300-3900 words). The Traumatizing Content warning is there because of discussions of certain topics. Nothing that I think deserves the warning actually happens in the story.
