《Wild Flower》Chapter 35
Advertisement
I heard whispers around my room and i roll over to the other side of the bed, trying to get back to sleep
But, the whispers get louder and louder and i threw a pillow at the person whispering in my room
"Ow..." He said, whispering
Someone is in my room?
Someone is in my room!
Am i going to die today?
But, today is my birthday...
I open my eyes slowy and hesitantly
"Suprise!"
To see my parents and jordan in my room with a birthday cake in hand, balloons floating around my room, a few presents on the floor and huge gold number balloon '17'
"Did you seriously throw a pillow at me?" Jordan said
"You were disturbing my beauty sleep, Jordan" I said
"Come on, sweetie. Wake up and meet us downstairs"
"Okay, mom"
Both of my parent exit my room and head downstairs, leaving me and jordan alone
"Happy birthday, birthday girl"
I smile "Thanks Jordie, did you get me a present?"
"Yeah, you can open it later. I think we should head downstairs, your are probably waiting for you"
I nod my head and got out of bed with wobbly legs, almost falling because i'm still sleepy
"You okay there?" He said, chuckling
I nod my head and went downstairs with jordan
There, i saw my parents with pancakes with maple syrup and topped with fresh blue berries, my mouth drool at the sight of that beautiful pancakes
"Is that for me?" I ask
"Yes honey, i made your favorite"
I sat down on the chair and quickly dig in, almost groan of how good the pancakes are
"Where's mine?" He said, pouting
My mom chuckled and gave a him a plate of pancake, Jordan smile at my mom and quickly dig into his pancakes
"Addie, Honey!"
"Yeah, mom?"
"Me and your father have work today"
"I thought you guys have the day off?"
She smiled sadly "No, we have work today"
"Do you really have too?"
She smiled sadly "Yes, we do Honey, it's gonna be worth it in the end"
I nod my head
"Don't be sad Sweetie, Jordan's here"

I look over to my right to see jordan amd he smile happily at me, showing all of his teeth
My mom kiss my forehead "We'll be back in no time"
My dad kiss my cheek and smile "Happy birthday, my little girl"
I smile back at him, my mom grab her purse and head out the door with my dad, i watch them while leaning on the door frame, my mom gave me a flying kiss and soon, they drove off until the car disappeared
"Come on Addie! Don't be sad, I'll take you to a birthday lunch"
"Really?"
"Yeah but, first open my gift!"
He ran upstairs to get his gift for me and came back down, almost tripping
He place the gift in my hands "Open it, Addie!"
I giggle and sat back down on the chair, carefully opening my gift
"Why are you so slow? Just rip it!"
I ripped the gift open to see it is a fox plushie with a 'J' collar around his neck and a necklace had a charm with the letter 'A' and a little fox
"Is the 'J' suppose to be Jordan"?
"Yeah"
"And you got me a necklace?"
"Yeah, i made it for you"
"Really?"
"Not really made it but, i did pick the charms out by myself"
"Can you put this on for me?"
He nod his head and i turn around, letting his put the necklace around my neck
"Done! Do you like it?" He said
I look at myself in the mirror and felt myself playing around with my necklace
I turn around and hug him "I love it!"
He hugged me back
Suddenly his phone buzz in his pocket, he broke the hug to check his phone
"Addie, Don't be mad, Okay?"
"Why?"
He sigh "My mom texted me that i have to go home now, she wants all of us to gather to meet at my grandma's house"
"Oh, okay" I said, looking down
"Don't be mad, we can go on your birthday lunch tomorrow"
"It's fine, Jordan"
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah"
We both head downstairs and Jordan head out the door while i'm leaning on the door frame, Jordan wave goodbye at me and i wave back, he slowy start to walk back to his house without forgetting to give a flying kiss and i giggle at him

I went back inside and going upstairs to my room, locking the door before slamming myself to the bed
Why does everyone have to leave me?
On my birthday!
Mom and dad are at work
And Jordan has to be at his grandma's house
And i'm alone on my birthday....
Since, i have nothing to do, i decided to do the one thing i'm good at and tha is sleeping!
Cuddling with my pillow and blanket, slowy my eyes become heavier and heavier, not long after that darkness consume me
It is weird that i have a dream that Jordan is in love with my mom and he's trying to steal my mom from my dad
Waking up, confused and cringe at the same time and look at my phone to see it's already '5:50' p.m
Wow... I slept for that long?
I guess, i'm really good at sleeping
I went to look at myself in the mirror
And well, you know when you have blankets marks on your arm or face, you know that you had a sleep
I have blankets marks on my cheek and my arm
I quickly grab a pale yellow sweater and change into some light wash blue denim jeans, putting on some white converse
Grabbing my phone and heading out the door, quietly walking down the street and taking a turn into the scary dark creepy forest
Slowy walking in the forest and trying not to get scared on every twig i step on
Speeding up my walk because, i don't to be here in this creppy forest any longer
I finally made it to the meadow and saw stranger standing and looking at me, his eyes gleam with happiness
"Hi, Stranger"
"Hey, Birthday girl"
I bump his shoulder "Stop that!"
"It's true that you're the biryhday girl"
"I know, it's just i don't like being called that"
"Why?"
"It makes me feel old"
He chuckles "You're only 17, i got you something"
"Really?"
He pull something from his back and it is a bouquet of gardenia's with lilacs and yellow tulip
"It's beautiful, Stranger" I said, taking the bouquet of flowers from him
"And i also got you this" He said, as the pull out a jewelry box from his back
And i look at him, in shock "You got me jewelry?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Isn't expensive?"
He shrug "Don't know, don't care"
"What do you mean you care?!"
"I don't care how much the price is as long as you're happy"
I blush at his words
Damn you, Stranger!
He open the jewelry box to reveal a beautiful charm bracelet and i'm in awe that he got me this
He took out the charm bracelet and put it on my wrist
I look at the bracelet in awe
"Do you want to know the reason why i got you this?"
I nod at him
"As you see the charms represents all of our adventures together"
He shows me the 'here' charm "That's on the first night we met, my one condition is to meet me 'here' every night"
He shows me the 'S&S' charm "From our pranks that we did"
Then he shows me the watergun charm "Our watergun fight"
He shows me the bikini charm "From our fun swimming and the first time i saw you in a bikini"
He shows me the panda charm "When we got our panda onesie"
He shows me the car charm "Our first rode trip"
He shows me the micky charm "Disneyland trip"
He shows me the chicken charm "Our first date food"
He shows me the gradenia charm "The first time i got you flowers"
He shows me a polaroid charm "The where you and i took some photos from all of our crazy adventures"
"Do you like it?"
"I love it... Thank you" I said, looking up at him and hugging him with all my might
He hugs me back "Your welcome"
"Well, well sorry to ruin the moment but, we really have to" Someone said
It is Chanse Hendrick, Alex Johnson, Chris Winters and Thomad Stanford with a camera in his hand recording us, i look at Stranger confused
Does Stranger know these people?
"Stranger, what's going on?"
"Yeah, come on 'Stranger' explain to her"
"Shut up, Chase" Stranger gritted gis teeth
"Aww, come on Stranger. Tell your Sweetheart what's happening right now"
"Shut up, Axel..."
Stranger knows these people
"Stranger, what's happening?"
Thomas laughs "You want to know what's really happening here?! basically Stranger lied to you"
"I don't believe you! Stranger is this true?!"
All Stranger could do is look at me with eyes gleaming with sadness and sympathy
He lied to me?
After all this time?
Everything he told me since the beginning is a lie?
Why? Stranger, why?

Trailblazer
The story of a man who accidentally wrote another world into existence. Everyone breaks away from their mundane daily life in one way or another. Our protagonist, an unfortunate consequence of circumstance, being no different, often escaped the harsh reality of life by writing stories of an alternate world of swords and magic. Though he recognized the difference between reality and fantasy, he could've never imagined what would happen, when the line between the two blurred as lightning struck down from the skies, and his escapism fantasy became all too real... After he came to, he would soon learn that things in the other world aren't quite as he remembered them to be. The world he wrote of had become but a shadow of its former self. Albeit hesitant at first, he sets off on a quest to find out the secrets behind the Trails, yet even then, he can't help but wonder... Can he really bring his world back to its old glory? —————————— I have never written a story before in my life and now I'm doing so in a language I don't natively speak. Groundbreaking quality is probably not something to be expected, but I do my best to keep things readable. With the necessities out of the way, both constructive criticism and other suggestions are very much welcome, and I'll do my best to take them into account when writing future chapters.

First conceptualized and written some 23 years ago. Only until last year that I did some improvisations and improvements to what I had kept in the dusty corner of my room all these while. This story sees the light of the day because I challenged myself, that's all. 2. English is the 6th language that I speak.And in RRL, I'm using British English mostly to write my story. 3. Easier said than done. Rather than subjecting me to subjective comments/reviews about the language, point it out and suggest an alternative. One or two would do just fine. It goes a long way. The Pledge - This story shall continue till it ends properly.

After the End: Serenity
We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course. At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory. Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone? Yes. In a heartbeat. Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time. When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life. Serenity. ------------------------------------------ While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges. The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has. Of course, that's only his second priority. ------------------------------------------- Updates Daily A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way. The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured. The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery.
