"It's not because of any of that!" He yells, quietly. You two make stern eye contact. "It's because I can't lose them! Even after all they put me through... I can't lose them, I love them... I didn't tell you because I was scared you'd tell someone... So please... Please don't tell anyone." He whispers the last part. He sighed and glanced over to something beside you. You turn and saw a teddy bear.
"They gave that to you, didn't they?" You whisper. "Y..Yeah."
You look at the mattress. "I.. I'm sorry for lashing out like that-... You know I hate lies and-" He cut you off by grabbing your hands, he moved a bit closer to you.
He let one hand go and moved a strand of hair out of your face. "No... I get it. You've always hated lying." He whispers.
You kissed him softly, it wasn't a long kiss. Only like two seconds, you pulled back and sighed quietly. "It doesn't give me an excuse for lashing out like that. How about I make it up to you?" You ask. "How?" He raised an eyebrow.
The tension started to slowly go down, as you giggle quietly. "Will you be my date to prom?"
"..Prom? I totally forgot about prom.. But uh, of course I'll go with you."
...
I giggled quietly to myself as I spoke to Nerris. We were sitting outside of school, just chilling. School ended a couple minutes ago.
"I can't believe you're going to prom with Max!" She giggled. "Yeah- When I asked him he was shocked. Like he totally forgot about it, like it only existed now." You chuckle. "Yeah."
"Soo~ You gonna ask Harrison?" You giggle. "What- No!" She blushed. "He's just gonna say no anyways..." Nerris sighed.

Suddenly the two boys, Preston and Harrison, walked near you as they existed the school. "I'll be back." Said Nerris.
You sat there for a little bit, until Nerris came back with the boys. "Now." Nerris glared.
Preston sighed. "I'm sorry dear, for how I treated you." He sighs. "Me too..." Muttered Harrison. You look at them with a smile. "I forgive you. Now, let's all go get ice cream!" You cheer.
"Typical Y/n." Chuckled Preston.
...
While eating your ice cream you thought for a moment. "I'll be one moment." You grab Harrison's arm and pull him out the ice cream store. "Huh?" He was confused.
"I heard you liked Nerris." You whisper, even though you didn't. You just said that to see if it was true.
"What?! Who told you? Was it preston? God damn it-" He blushed. You giggled. "Nono, but listen... You should totally ask her to prom." "Really? What if she says no..." Mumbled Harrison. You put your hands on his shoulders. "Trust me, you got this!" You say with stars in your eyes.
He stares at you for a little bit before giving up, he sighs with a small smile on his face. "Okay okay... Hey- watch your ice cream! It's gonna drop on my sweater- Dammit."
...
Your friends all finished their ice cream. "That was tasty." You giggle. They nod their heads. "Yeah." Smiles Preston. "Hey Y/n, what would you like for your birthday?" He asked. "Oh! I forgot about that- Um..." You thought for a moment.
It was always hard for you to think of something. "Anything sentimental, like an something that symbolizes an inside joke, something hand made... Literally anything. I'm not picky."
Preston rolled his eyes. "Way to be vague..." He muttered. You chuckled and blush from embarrassment. "It's hard okay." You mutter. "I get your pain, my birthday was like a month ago." Mumbled Nerris.

"Oh yeah! How do you like that bracelet I got you?" You ask. She lifts up her sleeve revealing the hand made bracelet you made. "I love it!" She giggled. "The fact that you're wearing it right now makes me feel so special aha." You blush.
"So um... How's your relationship with Max?"
Why Harrison, why did you ask that?
Tension quickly rised, and attention was on you, and only you. "Pretty good actually. We're going to Prom together." You state. "Oh you have a date? Perfect, now Nerris and Harrison just need one!" Smiled Preston. "You have a date?" You raised an eyebrow.
"O-Oh... Um... Yeah." He blushes. "Wait seriously?! Who?!" You gasp. "This guy named Nurf-" "Wait it isn't Ronald?" You ask. "Nah, he isn't my type honesty." He shrugged. "Oh wow. Well congrats man!" You grin.
"Now, you two just need a date." You smirk as you turn to the two, who were blushing red. "I.. I have someone in mind but- I can't ask them aha." Nerris blushes. You look at Harrison, your eyes just telling him 'THATS YOU'. "Y..Yeah uh- Nerris wanna go to the movies tonight?" Harrison asked. Nerris turned to him in shock, her cheeks flushed red.
"Of course!- I mean.. Y-Yeah sure, that'd be cool."
You giggle. You and Preston stared at the two in awe, they were both blushing. "You two are so cute together." You chuckle. "Couldn't agree more." States Preston.

Trickster's Tale
Be careful when demanding reparations from gods. They rarely own up to their mistakes. Due to a goddess's shortsighted error, Perry finds himself transported to a distant Universe with new proportions and a different identity. Instead of cowering before the deity, he demands she opens a portal home or provides reparations for him and his bereaved family. Unfortunately, standing up for himself doesn't earn Perry respect. Instead, she curses him with cowardice, limiting his combat and magical potential. Little does the goddess know that nothing can stand in the way of Perry's sheer will. If brute strength and arcane might won't get him the justice he desires, wit and creativity will. Perry's first target? A goblin shaman. Then, the world. And so begins, the bard's ballad. Trickster's Tale (Book 1): Is That A Lute In Your Pocket will release on Kindle Unlimited on the 10th of May.Due to KU's exclusivity rules, I've had to take most of book 1 down.Book 1 Bard's Ballad takes place in the same extended Universe as my other story, The Houndsman. It's set on a distant 'disk', though. As a result, the magic system is unique in comparison and has a harder LitRPG system. While the story utilises stats, it doesn't take them seriously and occasionally makes fun of regular LitRPG mechanics.

Soul Power 9999
I... don't remember how I died. Or anything else, really. I don't know who... what I am, what this dark space I am in is, or why the souls all around me are looking at me. But I do know that if the world starts falling apart, escaping comes first, even before listening to the messages that keep ringing inside my head. I only really remember the first one: [The [Simplification Process] has begun.] And so, while the world was doing a 180, I was stuck deep underground as an incorporeal soul, absorbing the essences of thousands others like me who had been torn to shreds just to prevent myself from dissipating, and trying desperately to go up while recovering jumbled up memories from my past. I did try to posses monsters to gain a physical body, but... It seems my soul got too powerful to be shackled down by a vessel. Releases every two days at 12:00 on Central Europe (GMT+1)
