《Brunette》Part 52
Advertisement
It's now June of 2018.
Nick and Christina didn't get married. They postponed it because I got pregnant even though I told them not to.
I sit up and feel something wet in my leggings.
"Lauren I think my water broke,"I say and shake her.
"What? Oh! I'll get the bags to the car then I'll come back for you!"She says and gets up and puts on her shoes then grabs the hospital bag from the closet and runs to the car.
She comes back up and helps me to the car.
"Looks like you have two baby girls,"The doctor says and hands me one baby and Lauren the other.
"Do you have names for them?"
Lauren nods.
"Electra Violet Cimorelli, and Giovanna Giselle Cimorelli,"
Lauren looks at me.
"Okay it looks like both of the babies are very health and I suggest you rest, but I can let in some visitors if that's okay with you,"The doctor says.
"Yeah that's okay,"I say.
The doctor goes the door and my sisters come in, followed by my mom, Lauren's siblings, and Lauren's parents.
"You want to hold Electra Violet?"I ask Lauren and she nods smiling.
She hands me Giovanna and my moms smiles at me.
"You're lucky you found someone like Lauren in life,"She says.
"Yeah I know,"I smile.
"Can I hold her,"Lisa asks.
'Go wash your hand first then you can,"
She rushes to the bathroom and washes her hands then comes back out.
She sits next to me on the bed and I hand her Giovanna.
"So how was it?"My mom asks.
"Kind of tiring. How did you do all of us?"I ask.
"It got easier after Roni and Nessa,"
"I am hurt!"Addison exclaims.
"I am your twin sister and yet you let my girlfriend hold your child first?"
"Lauren,"I say.
"Go wash your hands,"Lauren says to Addison.
She does the same as Lisa, and Lauren hands her Electra.
Lauren lays down on the bed next to me.
"Are you tired?"She asks.
"Not that much,"I say and kiss her head.
I came home a few days ago and I have not gotten off of the couch.
Lauren brings me everything and the twins are always crying.
"Babe what do you want to eat?"She asks.

"I don't care,"I say trying to stay awake.
She looks at me.
"Give me the children,"She says.
"I have to feed them in an hour, and they're taking their naps,"I say.
"You have an hour to sleep. This isn't healthy. I'm here for a reason, I'm your wife, I'm here to help with the babies. Now go take a nap,"She says.
"Lauren-"
"Go,"
I groan and hand her the twins.
I get up and walk upstairs to our room.
Once I lay down on the bed I instantly fall asleep.
2020
Three years passed and Lauren and the girls have been more busier than ever because Dani left the band.
The twins are so big already. I thought everyone was joking when they say their kids grow up so fast but it's true. You blink and you miss everything.
Katherine got married, Dani and Y/s/N got married, Lisa and Addison are engaged and Roni and Nessa are single still.
Melanie finally stopped trying to tear Lauren and I apart.
"Mommy when is Mama coming home?"Electra asks.
"Soon baby. Where's GG?"I ask.
"In our room. Mommy I'm hungry,"
I lift her up onto my lap.
"What do you want to eat?"I ask.
"I don't know,"
"Alright let's go ask your sister,"I say getting up and carrying her.
I walk into the twins room.
"Giovanna Giselle Cimorelli,"I say once I see her with a crayon, drawing on the wall.
She jumps up and stand in front of the wall.
"Hi mommy,"
"What were you doing?"I ask setting Electra on the floor.
"Nothing,"
"Move over,"
She shakes her head.
"Scoot over or I'll tell mama,"
"No!"
"Did you just yell at me?"
The front door opens but I ignore it.
"No,"
"You're grounded. Clean that up,"I say.
She starts crying.
"I told you not to draw on the wall,"Electra says.
I pick Electra back up.
"Why are you crying baby?"Lauren asks picking up Giovanna, completely ignoring the wall.
"Mommy yelled at me,"
"I didn't yell at her,"
"She grounded me and yelled at me,"
"I'm not doing this right now. She has to clean that up,"I say.
"She isn't cleaning it up, she's four she didn't know any better,"Lauren says.
"GG, Electra go watch tv,"She says setting Giovanna down.

I set Electra back down and they run to the living room.
"You yelled at her?"
"I didn't yell at her!"
"Why would she lie?"
"Because she loves the attention you give her. I swear I didn't yell at her,"
"I'll clean this up. She's only four,"
"Electra is only four. She hasn't drawn on a wall since the first time we told her not to, why can't Giovanna understand that,"
"Do you love Electra more?"She asks.
"No of course not. I love them both equally. Gia just stresses me out sometimes,"
"And Electra doesn't?"
"Not as much. She hasn't done anything to stress me out,"
"Did you ground her?"She asks.
"I mean yeah-"
"Why?"
"Because-"
"Because she messed up this one time? Because she isn't Electra!?"
"Mommy Mama are you fighting?"Electra asks standing by the door.
I pick her up.
"No Violet. We're not fighting,"
"Of course you don't tell her we're fighting. You're sheltering her?"
"No Lauren I'm not. We aren't fighting. Electra can you go put your shoes on and tell your sister to also. We're going to see cousin Mia, and Jacob and Noah,"
I put her down and she nods.
She runs out of the room and Lauren scoffs.
"What?"I ask.
"'Your sister' she has a name,"She says.
"Lauren come on drop it,"
"For now. But we're taking about this later,"
"Lauren why are you making this one thing such a big deal?"I ask.
"This one thing? As if it hasn't happened multiple times. When Electra does something wrong you help her, when GG does you ground her,"
"I don't do that,"
"No you do,"
"Lauren-"
"Just admit it. You'd choose Electra over GG any day,"She says and walks out.
I sigh and lean against the wall.
I look at the drawing on the wall.
Two little girls and one mom.
I groan and walk out of the room.
Electra runs to me.
"Mama said you were fighting,"
"Lauren!"
"I'm sorry. She should know when we fight,"
I put my shoes on.
"Are you two ready?"I ask the twins.
They nod and Electra grabs my hand.
We walk to Laurens car and get in.
She drives to my cousins house.
Once we walk inside the twins run to the back with the other little kids.
"You know what she drew?"I ask Lauren.
"What?"She questions.
"She drew two girls, one mom,"
"If I were treated like her I probably would too,"
"Lauren. That's not fair,"
"What isn't fair is how Electra is your favorite,"
"Lauren I love them both equally. If you want I can spend all week with Gia,"
"No you shouldn't do it because I want you to,"
"Lauren I love them equally,"
"If you did you would punish GG less and punish Electra more,"
"She hasn't done anything,"
"No she has you're just to blinded to see it. Treat them equally,"She says and walks outside.
"So what was that about?"Addison says walking up behind me.
"She thinks Electra is my favorite,"
"Why?"
"Apparently I don't treat Gia the same that I treat Electra,"
"I mean it's kinda true,"
"How is it true?"
"You do get mad at Gia more,"
"Well that's because she does more things wrong! Electra never does anything wrong!"
"Oh. I should probably talk to Gia,"I say looking down.
"Yeah go do that,"
I walk outside and walk to Gia.
"Are you gonna yell at her?"Lauren asks.
"I never yelled at her!"
I sigh.
"Sorry, Gia can I talk to you?"I ask looking at her.
She nods and Lauren walks away.
"I'm sorry for getting mad earlier. I shouldn't have grounded you,"
"Do you love Electra more than me?"
"What? No. Of course not. Why would you think that?"
"I heard you and mama yelling. I'm sorry I drew on wall,"
"It's okay. What can I do to for you to forgive me?"I ask.
"I want ice cream!"
I smile.
"Okay babygirl we'll get ice cream,"
"Now!"She exclaims running inside to the front door.
"Lauren I'll be back,"I say.
"I know,"
Gia and I walk outside and get in Lauren's car go to get ice cream.
After that we go back to my cousins house and Lauren looks at us as we get out the car.
"Did you have fun Gia?"She asks.
"Yeah!"
"Are you finally going to treat her like you treat Electra?"Lauren asks.
"Yeah. I'm sorry Lauren,"
"Where's my apology ice cream?"She asks smiling.
"I got you a tub it's in the car,"
She runs to the car.
She gets the tub and then wraps her arms around me from behind.
I lean into her and she softly places a single kiss on my neck.
"I love you,"She mumbles.
"I love you too,"

Discovering Magic
“Venture into your mind and into a new world, one where there is Magic. Magic that is nascent and unexplained, one where you can be the one to Discover it, by delving dark dungeons or examining magical Beasts, by studying ancient scrolls or by finding lost gods, your Imagination is the only limit.” This is what Mike thought he was getting into when he lay down to play a new VR game, but fate had another thing in store for him, he was whisked away to a new world in another Dimension, with an AI fused to his body that refuses to let him treat this world as a game, all the while trying to make it as much like a game as it can. The only Objective he is given is to Discover Magic as he learns to survive and live in this new world, doing the best he can to not die, or even worse. *** Hi All! This is my story, it has been brewing in my mind in various forms for years. It will be rough, this is the first story I have written in a long time, so please help me make it as great as it can be! It is a High Fantasy adventure/Isekai LitRpg, it will have action and adventure, levels and dungeons, Elves, Dwarves and Gods. It is not a Virtual Reality story, though it will touch on some topics of artificial intelligence. The core focus of the story is going to be the discovery and deep delve in the magic system and fantastical elements of the world. Mana is used so often in LitRPG's but how often is it explained what mana is, magic is used in fantasy, but how often do you understand what it feels like. Magical races like Elves, Dwarves etc. often exist in stories, but why do they exist? and what truly makes them different from Humans and from each other? What is a God and where did they come from? These are the sort of topics that I want to really dive into in this series, all through the lens of a progression focused LitRPG. Thanks for reading!

Galactic Internet: System Initializing Book 1
The Galactic Internet is a system takeover LitRPG with two MC's. It's gritty and dark at times, so I'd like to start with a brief warning. The story was made for adults, and as such contains some cursing, potentially traumatizing violence, gore, indentured servitudes. There is no sexually explicit material in the first book. However, there is nudity and sexual interactions aren't out of the scope of possibilities for later in the story. The first book is almost exclusively trying to figure out how the game works and trying to stay alive. It is a very open system that I've implemented. Expect to see anything from androids and aliens, to goblins and trolls.

The Grandmaster of Magic and Alchemy[Discontinue- Rewritten Version will be up soon]

What does this call? This is the story of a woman who lives for so long that she had wished she could just die already, only to mistake the spell [Soul Incarnation] as a spell that could kill her. Instead, her soul and memory were sent into another world that looked down on the weak and the strong walk toward the path of righteous. Her name... is... was... called Megie, the Immortal Grandmaster Magician of Kingdom of Magic. And now, her soul is in the body of a girl who accidentally poisoned herself to death.

Runicka: Tournament of Monsters (A GameLit Card Game Fantasy)
The runes are changing, and with it, the game itself changes. Taygion Ardwella finds himself stranded, alone, and on the run from some very determined guards who claim Tay's stolen from them. They're right, but that shouldn't mean Tay has to give back what he took. He's only been in Stormwall for a week and already, he's earning the ire of the most powerful and notorious House that controls the city's underground. And when their scion challenges Tay to a duel of cards, Tay will find himself thrust into a game of sorcery and strategy as he attempts to both find a way out of this mess and find his own way in the world. To do both, he'll need to learn to accept guidance and coaching where it's sorely needed, craft a deck of unimaginable power, and not die whenever his opponents try and cheat him out of a hard-earn victory. But not all is as it seems in the shadows of Stormwall, and if Tay can figure out the importance of what it is he's stolen, he may just have a chance at saving the game of Runicka. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Runicka: Tournament of Monsters is a high fantasy, card game-based adventure novel with enough magic, worldbuilding, and characters to fill a Sanderson series. I would consider it a part of the GameLit subgenre. This series in particular is not an isekai, and will start and end in a high fantasy setting complete with its own lore and backstory. It is a progression fantasy, and I am writing it inspired by all the Yu-Gi-Oh mangas/animes, and all the hours I've invested/wasted (depending on who you ask) playing TCGs like Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic: The Gathering. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a work in progress. In your journey through Stormwall alongside Tay, you'll probably find typos, grammatical errors, and maybe a confusing sentence every once in a while (although I hope to keep these to a minimum). That said, comments and suggestions on where I can improve are not only encouraged but greatly appreciated. And finally, expect new chapters every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~**Currently on a small hiatus. I have a bit of a workplace crisis going on. I'm still writing, but I don't have time to polish and publish. Chapters will return on a regular basis soon though!!**
