《Infinity || Dan Smith》Sixty-Five.

The only other people on the plane, other than the air crew, is Aubrey and her wife. Both of them sit tight lipped whilst holding a champagne flute away from them, with one leg draped over the other. Charlie watches them in humour while Dan teaches Kyle how to give Lacey her bottle.
The reason why Aubrey and Dakota are so serious is because of their upcoming afflicting schedules. The wife duo are both directors for big budget Hollywood films, so they're basically going to be competing against one another for the highest box office score. They've both yet to even cast people for the film, though. Dakota is eyeing up Dan for the lead role in her upcoming film. Whereas Aubrey, of course, is signing Charlie up for her lead.
They've yet to tell the couple.
"Psst..." Charlie childishly whispers in boredom from behind Aubrey's seat.
Aubrey doesn't move, although she can hear Charlie trying to get her attention. "Psst" Charlie this times says louder. The immature smile on her face grows, but nobody notices.
"Psst!" Charlie says while she lets out a nervous laugh at the end.
"Ps-" Aubrey cuts her off.
"Do that one more fucking time! I dare you." Charlie jumps back while Aubrey sharply turns around in her seat looking very annoyed.
"Swear in front of my baby one more time. I dare you." Aubrey's eyes then trail off and spots Lacey looking at her while Dan and Kyle talk in depth about Bastille.
She smiles at the little girl with a happy face and sparkling deep blue eyes. She looks exactly like Charlie, although her eyes aren't her mother's.
"Sorry..." Aubrey apologises while Charlie bursts out laughing.
"It's only a fucking joke. Nah, her first word is gonna be 'fuck you' or something." Charlie, who is amused by the truth, then snorts like a pig before laughing even harder.

"Why did you want to eat my attention?!" Aubrey snaps while Charlie shrugs.
"I wanna get Lace christened, you know? And apparently I have to have a godmother...and I don't have a sister or brother...or female friends...and I need a person from my side..." this is extremely awkward for Charlie to say, considering how she dislikes Aubrey for past events. Although, she's trying to put that in the past.
Her father was apparently a forgiving person, or so she believes.
"Why don't you just get your mom to do it?"
Charlie then looks away to the side in nerves. "Because you've been there for me and Lacey more than she has." That's when Aubrey batters her eyes open from one of her painful migraines and looks at Charlie in complete shock.
"Did you just..." Aubrey's voice trails off while Charlie nods her head.
"The cancer isn't back, is it?" Aubrey whispers while she literally kneels and turns around on her seat, with both of her legs dangling off the edge.
"What? No!" Charlie loudly whispers while Aubrey looks seemingly confused.
"No. I'm actually being nice...if you don't want to be Lacey's godmother then I'll just ask Dan's sister. But she hasn't really been much of an aunt..." Fran has only seen Lacey twice, and Charlie once. Their meeting was very brief.
"I'm just...in shock." Aubrey whispers while Dan's eyes flicker away from Kyle's for a second...as he then notices the strange sight of Aubrey and Charlie whispering amongst themselves.
"Hold her for a minute." Dan says while he kisses Lacey on the jeep before gently passing her over to Kyle whole rubs her back, getting rid of her trapped wind.
Dan then stands up and walks towards Charlie's sofa where he notices both of the women have tears in their eyes, although he knows that they'll try denying them if he brings the tears up. So it's better if he doesn't ask about that, rather than the fact the two women are casually speaking to each other.

"Is everything...okay?" Dan asks whilst looking very confused.
"Go away..." Charlie tries to shoo him away with the back of her hand, but Dan doesn't budge. Instead he laughs at her guts, there's no way he can to this to Charlie without getting an earful. But he's learnt that she's always right...even when most of the time Charlie's technically always wrong.
"Charlotte." Aubrey snaps through her joy.
"Dan, come and join us. Charlie move over." Aubrey is delighted to see Dan's presence. She wants to know whether Charlie is telling the truth about wanting her to become Lacey's godmother. Surely she'll tell her fiancé the truth. Aubrey thinks to herself with a smile while Dan picks up Charlie's legs before sliding under them.
Charlie on the other hand grits her teeth. She doesn't want Dan to know that she's personally asked Aubrey. "What's going on over here then?" Dan awkwardly laughs while Charlie then shrugs.
"Not much." She lies while Aubrey rolls her eyes.
"Your fiancée has just asked me to be Lacey's godmother." With that even Dakota leans forwards in her chair. She overheard tiny bits of their conversation, but this is just mind blowing.
She thinks Charlie is up to some mischief and will probably have an unneeded argument with Aubrey...yet again.
"What the fuck?" Dan sniggers in shock whilst pointing at his soon-to-be bride.
Charlie looks away feeling completely defeated. "So what? I asked her to be Lacey's godmother, big deal. Go and tell your mates at the news stations so they can make it breaking news!" Charlie, who's clearly embarrassed, then tries to suffocate herself by diving her head into the cushioned sofa. But Dan who is ecstatic that Charlie isn't all 'hate' grabs her shoulders and moves her backwards and into his arms.
It's like a child who is holding a puppy the incorrect way.
"You have a soft side!" He immaturely teases while Aubrey laughs at their love...and of course Charlie's moody temperamental face.
"Shut up." Charlie says while she thinks of a way to excuse herself from the 'embarrassing' mess that she's made.
"Never." Aubrey plays along while Charlie bites her inner cheek whilst trying not to laugh with them. She's very stubborn.

The Afterlife, And How To Survive It (Barely)
Larry Foulery's monotonous, directionless life changed drastically, when he got shot in the face. Reincarnated into a new world, where he has nothing to lose and everything to gain, and with the honor and dedication of an part-time fast food cashier, he is ready to face this adventure. Kinda. The story takes place in the cynical world of Afterlife, where status screens and are considered normal, and the rule of physics cry in a corner, because nobody cares about them, and they are alone and lonely, and their family hasn't called them in years. Anyways, have fun. BTW don't stare too long into the story cover. I get the feeling it stares back. I'm trying to improve my writing, so feel free to bombard me with criticism.

The Arcane Prince
Book 1 is complete and fully posted here on RoyalRoad. The story is on break as I work on Book 2, which will be posted once I have finished writing it. Max is a twelve-year-old boy from the slums who dreams of seeing the world, learning magic, and adventure. On the same day that Max learns his first spell, he meets Colt, a noble-born lad on his own path to power. Colt is kind. Oblivious to the world, but kind. By his grace, Max begins to learn under Colt's instructor, even hunting monsters in the forests to the north. Max is talented and grows in power quickly, but as he prepares for the first of his adventures, the kingdom faces the greatest threat in centuries. Posting Schedule: Every 3 days until the end of Book 1 (Chapter 45). IMPORTANT NOTES: 1) This is a story about an OP boy doing OP boy things. By the end of Book 1, there will be few fights that he struggles with, and he will rarely, if ever, find his life in peril. 2) This is a slice-of-life and adventure story, which means that there will be periods of chapters without any action or conflict, but also periods of chapters with battles and exploration/adventure (the latter mostly being Book 2+). 3) There will be NO petty squabbles or conflicts going on in this story, because it is meant to be a fun one, not a high-tension, drama-filled story. So it will NOT be that. If you want lots of action or lots of conflict, then find another story to read because this isn't it. 4) There will never be an overarching evil/villain/conflict to deal with in this story past Book 1. Ever. 5) Book 1 is entirely written and can be considered a standalone story on its own. Right now, the story may last 2-3 books, or it may last 7-10 books. It is guaranteed to make it through Book 2 or 3, and if I decide to go with the bigger journey I have planned after that, then it will be longer. There will be a several-month wait between Book 1 and Book 2. 6) The story contains the sexual content tag, but it will not contain any unless Max and his future boyfriend reach 18+ years of age in-story. If I decide to bring the story to a conclusion with Book 2 or 3, or they never reach that age in the full story for the long journey, then I will remove the tag. 7) There are currently absolutely no plans to make this story into a harem if I write the extended story. If I write the extended story and decide at some point to make it one, then I will add the appropriate tag and inform readers of this decision. However, there are currently zero plans to make it one. 8) This story takes place in its own story universe, with its own rules. Please keep that in mind when reading it and other stories.
