Bagaimana nasib Juni selanjutnya?

Bass, 21, is a Filipino-Thai student studying at New Siam Institute of Arts and Sciences in the Philippines. His father wanted him to migrate to Thailand after college, but he didn't want to leave for fear of being outcasted.
At the start of his freshman year, Bass meets Godt Suttirat, an exchange student from Bangkok, Thailand. Initially a cat-and-dog relationship, Bass and Godt eventually learned to become each other's support and confidant. But Godt was not meant to stay forever. Is their budding relationship more than enough to change Bass' mind? Will they ever be able to tell them how they truly felt for each other? They have yet to find out.

"Mom, it won't threaten your life if you donate some blood in the hospital." Nate held his mother's hand. "Please, just a little of your blood, and it can save Fannie's life!"   
Mrs. Bass was displeased, and there was a sneer on her lips. "What? You start to care about Fannie now?"   
"No, I don't!" Nate denied it at once and seemed determined. "Once she's cured, I'll arrange a marriage for her. I promise I won't contact her again the moment she's married."   
"What if she contacts you?" Mrs. Bass asked with a calm face.
"I-I can get married too, and I can move abroad!" Nate clenched his teeth and made a hard decision. "Mom, as long as you're willing to save her life, I can do whatever you want me to do."     
Mrs. Bass, however, got rid of Nate's hand and turned to sit by the bedside. "You care about her so much right now. Are you still willing to see me use her blood to extend my life in the future?"    
Nate felt cornered and said, "Mom, if Fannie can't survive today, you won't see your son again!" After that, he slammed the door and left.
Hearing that, Mrs. Bass frowned. She wanted to stop Nate, but he already disappeared from her sight, and she heard the car engine roaring away.
The Knight XV had an abrupt halt and stopped by the road.
 Annie's smiling face kept flashing by his eyes, and the last question Fannie had asked him sounded again by his ears. 
Do you like me?
Yes. Yes, I do!
He and Fannie grew up together, and he even had promised to marry Fannie in the future when they were just kids.
However, as time went by, he found out Fannie wasn't just an adopted kid in his family but was also his mother's moving blood bag.
During the past years, Nate had taken great care of his mother and protected her from doing any dangerous things to avoid the recurrence of his mother's hemophilia.
It was a very strange life-threatening genetic disease. If the person who suffered from that disease had a wound on his or her body, he or she would lose three times more blood than ordinary people within a short time.
When his mother found out Fannie's mother had the same blood type as she, his mother kept Fannie's mother by her side and regularly drew off her blood for storage.
His mother had prepared for three whole years before getting pregnant.
Even though his mother still had risked her life to give birth to him.
Nate didn't know his mother's health condition when he was very young and insisted his mother should go climb a mountain with him once.
Unexpectedly, they encountered a landslide, and his mother was damaged by a stone, and her leg kept bleeding.
At that time, Fannie was only seven years old, and her mother laid down her precious life for his mother.
When Nate raised his head again, his eyes were bloodshot.
"It's all my fault! All my fault!" Nate slapped himself twice. "If I can't save your life today, I'll die with you!" Saying that he took out his phone and called an illegal blood bank. "Do you have Rh-negative trait blood? I don't care about its price." 
"How much do you need? We can contact you later once we get some," a man said with a smile on the phone.
"I need it right now! Give me as much as you can provide!" Nate yelled at him.
"It's very rare blood. I'm afraid we can't provide you right away even though you offer a sky-high price," the man said. "Why don't you leave us a number and we'll contact you once we get some."     
Hearing that, Nate said a dirty word, then hung it up.
A while later, his phone rang again. Nate answered it and swore again. "F*ck off, if you can't provide the blood for me right now!"   
"Nate?" Mrs. Bass's voice sounded on the phone.
"Mom..." Nate was surprised.    
"Come back and pick me up. Let's go visit Fannie," Mrs. Bass said.  
"Mom," Nate whimpered. "Sure, I'll be right back home!"    
He started the car again with a broad smile on the face and left for his home without delay. He even didn't realize that tears were flowing down from his cheeks.
Fannie, hang on there for a while longer. I'm coming to save your life!
Mrs. Bass was waiting for him at the gate, and she wiped her beloved son's eyes once she got in the car. "Tell me, are you in love with Fannie?"
"I..." Nate stammered.
"If you don't love Fannie, she's just a tool to extend my life in our family," Mrs. Bass said with a serious face. "If you love her, she might be my daughter-in-law, which is totally different. Think about it twice before you tell me your answer."
Hearing that, Nate nodded without hesitation. "Mom, I love her. I love her! I want to marry her!"   
Mrs. Bass smiled. "Let's go now."  
Nate started the car once more and sped up as fast as possible when it was steady.
This time, Nate was thrilled because he could save Fannie's life and finally confess his love to her.
However, when he ran into the emergency room, the tense atmosphere upset him.
"Where did you go?" Dinah caught Nate's collar and shouted in anger.
"I went to find blood..." Nate got rid of her hands and pointed at his mother, who was walking slowly to them. "I brought my mother here. She has the same blood type as Fannie. We can save Fannie's life now."
Kylie stood up at this moment and walked to Nate's side. She laid her hand on Nate's shoulder and said, "It's too late. I'm sorry, Nate."
Nate's body trembled in fear all of a sudden. "No, no, Fannie is fine! We can save her life now." Nate almost threw Kylie to the ground, and Ethan supported her at once.
"Don't vent your anger at Kylie," Ethan said and gave him a cold glance. Nate turned to look at Stephen. Stephen was an ace doctor, and Stephen wouldn't lie to his face. 
"Stephen, tell me, we can save Fannie's life now with the blood, right?"
Stephen didn't answer his question, but said, "If I were you, I would walk inside to see her face for the last time."
Nate couldn't believe his ears. Is Fannie dead?
He refused to believe it.
"Nate, don't blame yourself for that. It's not your fault..." Mrs. Bass walked over but was pushed away by Nate.
"Don't touch me!" Nate yelled at his mother, then ran into the operating room.
The stinky smell of blood invaded his nose.
The surgical lights were already off, and there was blood everywhere. The blood-stained blue sheet had a bulge, and Fannie's pale and weak hand was bare in the air at one side.
"Fannie?" Nate stumbled over and held Fannie's cold hand with his trembling hand.
He raised a smile and said, "Fannie, I'm here now."
The operating room was so quiet that it was even a little scary.
Nate remained silent for a few seconds, then summoned up his courage to uncover the operating table.
Fannie lay in peace, and she seemed to be in a deep sleep, but her unusually pale face told the heartbreaking truth. Nate gently touched her cheek with his fingers, and mumbled, "Fannie, didn't you say you'll listen to me in the rest of your life? I don't allow you to die now. Open your eyes, please..."

Even if the brain is at the top of our head, we still follow our hearts most of the time.

#10: Literally, Saving Crisostomo.


"Hey, Mr. Librarian! What are you doing here?" I confronted him. The two ladies are already sleeping in my bed because they're drunk.

I am nervy because he might have seen that I put my finger down. I'm not really in love with Crisostomo! I don't know why it happened!

"First warning," he said and he disappeared like bubbles. In front of me.

I kicked the door out of frustration. As in karate, I practiced martial arts for self-defense.

It seems like I kicked it so hard because Iday sat down, and then she falls again in bed. She's really drunk.


THE OTHER DAY, we are having our breakfast together. I am eating with, Aunt Isabel, Captain Tiago (who is still cold to me), Iday, and Victoria. They are lucky to have free breakfast today.

"Aunt Isabel, thank you for the food. We really love it. Right, Victoria?"

"Yes! Thank you for letting us sleep here, Captain Tiago," Victoria said while smiling.

"No problem," he coldly said.

"Wews. No problem but you look problematic," I thought. I smiled secretly because of my funny thought.

Suddenly, it becomes silent. I thought Simoun pause the time again but no, it's not. They are just staring at me like I said something wrong.



I am just silently eating here. I am just thinking... oh my! Did I just said what I thought?

"Do we have a problem, Emcee?" Captain Tiago asked.

"D-do we?" I asked and looked at them and pretending I'm serious.

Because of that, Captain Tiago frowned his brows more and I can see the fire in his eyes. He's about to say something but some helper interrupted.

"Captain Tiago, Don Crisostomo is here and he wants to talk to you," she said.

After what she said, Crisostomo showed up and he smiled at me. I just rolled my eyes. Tss. What's with this man? He left without saying goodbye. Now he's smiling at me? Ha!

"Oh Crisostomo, you're here! Come and join us. Eat breakfast with us," Aunt Isabel said while smiling. She even pulls a chair for Crisostomo.

"Oh, that's so nice of you, Aunt Isabel, but I'm here to talk to Captain Tiago. Would you excuse us?" He asked.

I was about to open my mouth but Captain Tiago already wipe his mouth using a napkin and then he stands up. 

He looked at Crisostomo and he smiled at him. Oh, look at this old man. Is he his child? Why is he nice to him and cold to me? I hate him so much!

Well, maybe because I am unlikeable. Or he despises me now because his dear daughter turns out to be rude. I am not his real child either.

"Maria, what do you is their topic?" Iday said.

"I don't know!" I screamed because she's talking to me while I am eating. "And I don't care. Let's not talk about them and eat!"

Maybe Iday thought that I already forgot that she has feelings for Crisostomo! Ha! She wish! Or maybe she doesn't remember that she simply confessed her feelings. Same with Victoria it seems like they have amnesia.

We continued eating our breakfast even without Captain Tiago. After a moment, he came back with a smile on his face. He even smiles at me. What a miracle!

"Maria Clara my daughter," he called." Finish your food because I heard from Crisostomo that you'll hang out with him?"

My eyes widened and I look at Crisostomo with curiosity on my face. I arched my brow at him. He needs an explanation!

"Well, I decided to ride in a boat with you. It'll be fun and I hope you'll approve and come with me," he beamed.

-

True to his words, we are absolutely riding a boat. I believe this is part of the story and in this part, Crisostomo will meet Elias. Or maybe not because I changed some parts of this story.


"Maria, why don't you sing a song so that we'll have fun while we're on a boat," Iday said.

Yes, you read it right. It's Iday. Both Victoria and Iday joined us. They're both feeling close right? Well, it's kinda cool with me because we're officially friends, but it's a different story to tell if it's about Crisostomo. They like him secretly.

"Oh nah! I only know sad songs," I said while shaking my head.

"It's okay if it's a sad song. Just sing so we'll enjoy our trip and make some noise," Victoria added. I rolled my eyes at her and I was about to answer but I realized that...

Before this scene, Sisa is already out of her mind because Crispin and Basilio went missing.

Oh my gosh! Did I just save them? Holy cow!

I stand up and all of the people here looked at me like I'm a crazy woman. I clapped my hands and looked at Crisostomo, who was startled because of my sudden move.

"Hey, Cris! Give me some sick beat!" I said with swag. I wanna sing my victory song because I won! I saved the two sacristans and Sisa.

To my disappointment, Crisostomo didn't know what I meant and he just looks at me and looks at my friends and scratch his nape. Stupid boy!

Surprisingly, one man from the boat gives me some beatbox using his mouth. Woah! I didn't know that there's a talented man in this story. Maybe I should ask his name after this ride.

"Yeah, music🎶! This is my victory song and I am dedicating this song to my only love, Crisostomo," what a plastic! I don't even like this fictional character. He smiled because of what I said. He is so easy to please! "And y'all should be thankful 'cause I am singing this song for free!"

They began mumbling some unpleasant words because I am too proud of myself. Of course, I am what I am.

[Super Bass By: Nicki Minaj]


"This one is for the boys with the boomin' system
Top-down, AC with the cooler system
When he come up in the club, he be blazin' up
Got stacks on deck like he savin' up!" I am feeling the vibes.

They all stopped from what they're doing and look at me like they are amused.



"And he ill, he real, he might gotta deal
He pop bottles and he got the right kind of build
He cold, he dope, he might sell coke
He always in the air, but he never fly coach
He a mothafuckin trip, trip, sailor of the ship, ship
When he make it drip, drip, kiss him on the lip, lip
That's the kinda dude I was lookin' for
And yes, you'll get slapped if you're lookin', ho," I am pointing at Crisostomo and dancing like I'm in a bar.


"I said, excuse me, you're a hell of a guy
I mean, my, my, my, my, you're like pelican fly
I mean, you're so shy and I'm loving your tie
You're like slicker than the guy with the thing on his eye, oh," I rapped so fast 'cause I feel like I am Nicki Minaj.

They are now confused about what I am doing. I understand because it is their first time to hear and watch someone who raps.


"Yes, I did, yes, I did
Somebody please tell em who the F I is
I am Nicki Minaj, I mack them dudes up
Back coupes up and chuck the deuce up"

They are now smiling so tremendously because they are enjoying the vibes and the beat. Thank goodness because the beatbox boy is great.

I turned around I dance like Nicki Minaj when she was singing this song.

"Boy, you got my heartbeat runnin' away
Beatin' like a drum and it's comin' your way
Can't you hear that
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass?
He got that super bass"

They are imitating my dance moves. Crisostomo, who has no clue about what I was doing earlier, is now smiling and clapping his hands.


"Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
Yeah, that's that super bass
Boom, boom, boom, badoom (Bass, bass)
Boom, boom, boom (Bass, yeah)
Boom, boom, boom, badoom (Bass, bass)
Boom, boom, boom (Bass)
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
He got that super bass
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
Yeah, that's that super bass (Yo, yo)"

"C-crocodile! There's a crocodile!" Someone shouted

I stopped rapping because I remember that this is an intense scenario. We will also meet Elias this time.

Suddenly, a man jumps out of the boat and dives. People shouted and they began to panic.

[This one is for the boys in the polos
Entrepreneur niggas and the moguls
He could ball with the crew, he could solo
But I think I like him better when he dolo
And I think I like him better with the fitted cap on
He ain't even gotta try to put the mack on
He just gotta give me that look, when he give me that look
Then the panties comin' off, off, uh
Excuse me, you're a hell of a guy
You know, I really got a thing for American guys
I mean, sigh, sickenin' eyes
I can tell that you're in touch with your feminine side, uh]

The man who was beatboxing earlier now stopped. "Don't you worry about him. He is known for catching crocodiles," he said.

"You!" Someone shouted and she points her finger at me.

[Yes, I did, yes, I did
Somebody please tell 'em who the F I is
I am Nicki Minaj, I mack them dudes up
Back coupes up and chuck the deuce up]

"Yes?" I cooly asked.

"You're the reason why we don't notice that there's a crocodile here! You and your freaking voice!" She screamed.

[Chorus: Nicki Minaj & Ester Dean]
Boy, you got my heartbeat runnin' away
Beatin' like a drum and it's comin' your way
Can't you hear that
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass?
He got that super bass
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
Yeah, that's that super bass
Boom, boom, boom, badoom (Bass, bass)
Boom, boom, boom (Bass, yeah)
Boom, boom, boom, badoom (Bass, bass)
Boom, boom, boom (Bass)
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
He got that super bass
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
Yeah, that's that super bass (Yo, yo)

This bitch is getting on my nerves. Maybe she doesn't know who I am? Well, I'm gonna introduce myself.

"You fucking skank! Of course, my voice freaks because I ain't a singer. I'm a model! If I have a voice like Ariana Grande, I'm probably a singer now. Also, that's a rap! You don't need a golden voice there! You just have to rap fast!" I said continuously.



[See, I need you in my life for me to stay
Know, know, know, know, know, I know you'll stay
No, no, no, no, no, don't go away, hey
Boy, you got my heartbeat runnin' away
Don't you hear that heartbeat comin' your way?
Oh, it be like
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
Can't you hear that
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass?]

She was about to answer but another man dives into the pool. I disgustedly look where dive at. Did they think that it's a swimming pool and it is safe? Where is their brain?

"Crisostomo!" Iday shouted. Oh my! Does it mean that the man who jumped was Crisostomo?

[Boy, you got my heartbeat runnin' away
Beatin' like a drum and it's comin' your way
Can't you hear that
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass?
He got that super bass
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
Yeah, that's that super bass
Boom, boom, boom, badoom (Bass, bass)
Boom, boom, boom (Bass, yeah)
Boom, boom, boom, badoom (Bass, bass)
Boom, boom, boom (Bass)
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
He got that super bass
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
Yeah, that's that super bass (Yo, yo)]

"Crisostomo!" I shouted and also dive. I don't care if something bad happens to me. It doesn't matter. What matters now is that I have to save Crisostomo. 

To be honest, I don't wanna sacrifice myself and jumped out of the boat. Why should I do that? Crisostomo is not something special because he's just a fictional character.

But you know, my body decided to do that and save Crisostomo. I guess you don't always follow your brain because I follow my heart this time.

Manuela Carie Flores is a well-known Filipina supermodel but she is also the most bashed because people thought that she's brainless

Her manager decided that she must be back to school so that her bashers will leave her alone. She's back in 9th grade of high school.

At the last quarter of her school year, their teacher assigned them to read the book of Noli Me Tangere and they must do their own version of it, they must do a movie.

While she is reading the book of Noli Me Tangere, her tears flow like a river. She can't hold back her tears. Little did she know that the book of Noli Me Tangere is an open book and while she was crying, she enters the book, and now she has the mission given by the librarian...

SHE MUST CHANGE THE ENDING OF NOLI ME TANGERE FROM TRAGIC INTO A HAPPY ENDING ONE


James walked through Bass’s rooms. The Beta, like the Alpha, had both private rooms and a Hall. The Hall was where the Alpha, or Beta, met with whoever of the pack needed to see them.

By Law, James could go wherever he liked, even into the private rooms. But he tried his best to respect his pack’s privacy, even his Beta’s, and only visited him in his Hall.

Seeing the distressed look on James’ face, Bass sent everyone out, and James had the room to himself.

“It's her, Bass,” James collapsed on one of the benches. “It’s Elizabeth.”

Bass pursed his lips, but didn’t respond.

“But she doesn’t remember me,” James continued, looking at his friend. “I don’t know how, but she doesn’t remember me at all. I was so sure she was my mate, but how is that possible if she remembers nothing about me? And now,” James continues, “She’s been avoiding me for days. I swear it's almost like she doesn’t even sense my presence.”

Bass sighed, walking around restlessly.

“I know you’ve been searching for her,” Bass began tentatively, slowly. “But having found her, I wonder if the best thing to do is to send her away.”

“I can’t,” James cried, almost pained by the words themselves. “I would die, Bass. I can’t send her away.”

“My Apha . . . my friend,” Bass corrected himself. “Listen to me. I advised you not to go after her all those years ago. I told you that she had promised to come here, and if she had not honored that promise it meant one thing. Our Pack deserved a Luna who was dedicated, who would honor us. All of those things were true then.” Bass paused to make sure his Alpha was listening to him. “They are still true now.”

“Bass, she’s forgotten,” James tried to explain, waving his hand as he moved.

“All the more reason that they are true,” Bass prompted. “She remembered everything about you, right? And enough about the story for you to think it's her. Except she’s forgotten that you are the man she fell in love with. Does that seem like a coincidence to you?” Bass pushed. “To me, that seems like she did love you, but she wanted it to be anyone but you.”

James collapsed on the chair, holding his head in his hands.

“She did love you and she may still.” Bass agreed. “But she does not want to be Luna. She does not want an Alpha. You have a fiancé that does,” Bass pointed out. “A fiancé that left her pack, a powerful, allied pack, to come and be Luna here. A pack with less influence and less power than the one she left. Don’t you see what this must be doing to her?”

James felt like throwing up, his guilt gnawing at him. Everything Bass was saying was true. Katrina had given up many things to be here.

“Elizabeth may even be your true bonded mate,” Bass acknowledged. “But very clearly, you aren’t hers. For the safety of the pack, this cannot continue.”

“She’s my mate, but for the safety of the pack,” James nodded. “She should mean nothing to me.”

Bass rushed out at the call of one of his guards, and almost immediately Kenneth came in.

“Whatever it is,” James began, “Not now, Kenneth.”

“First of all,” Kenneth continued. “I hope you realize how much bullsh*t your Beta just fed you, and I hope you’ll make the actual right choice for the Pack, not what Bass thinks the right choice for the Pack is. Secondly, we’re under attack.”

“What?” James shot up, halfway out the door.

“Five rogue wolves at the border to the Willow trees.”

________________________________________

‘For the safety of the pack, she should mean nothing to me.’ James’ words replayed in her mind over and over again. Like a horrible memory caught on repeat; like she was stuck in a nightmare.

She’d come to speak to Bass, and he’d asked her to come to him. But she’d stopped outside when she heard two male voices inside. She recognized Bass almost immediately, and then James’ voice rung true. 

She hadn’t meant to overhear anything. Least of all a private conversation between her Alpha and his Beta.

But maybe it was better that she had. Now she could make the decision that had been on her mind for a few days now.

She didn’t have to speak to Bass any longer. Elizabeth immediately turned around and raced home, her eyes stinging on the verge of tears.

But she had made a decision.

________________________________________


James race to the willow border, his heart pounding. That was near the clinic.

“She’s not there, James,” Kenneth called to his Alpha. “She’s at her home, I already checked.”

James felt a surge of gratitude for Kenneth, and immense pride at the wisdom of his wolf. Even if Kenneth didn’t know what Elizabeth meant to James, she was their Healer. And a pack healer needed to be protected first, at all costs.

“Thank you,” James called, as they finally arrived at the border of the willow tree.

James found five wolves, not dead but nearly there, at the border. Seven of his wolves stood over them, barely scratched. He thinks of calling for Elizabeth, but the wounds on all of them are not too bad, barely breaking the skin, and they were all rogues. No Alpha wounds in sight.

He also thought he might want to call for her for his own benefit.

“Who are you?” James demanded, the voice of an Alpha. “And why have you come?”

His Alpha edict would not work on them, as long as they were loyal to their own Alpha, but they would still feel the weight of it.

“We’re from the Sycamore Pack,” one of the wolves explained. “Our pack is large, and our territory great. Greater than this one. We circled your territory two days ago. Our size is at least thrice yours. But our pack is dying.”

James swallowed hard. Three days they’d been watched. Three days he’d been negligent.

“We have no food, no medicine.” Another wolf bit. “The game is gone, our healer has been dead for over a year’s moon.”

James pursed his lips. He was lucky, Elizabeth could have gone there.

“Still,” James continued. “You have not told me why you came here.”

None of the wolves spoke; they would struggle to lie under an Alpha’s edict right now. They were weakened beyond measure. They had little option other than the truth.

“Our Alpha is dying and his Luna is caught in a constant dream,” The one wolf told James.

Bass finally arrived at the scene. James was grateful for the help of his Beta earlier, but Bass should have been here. He should have been the one asking them these questions.

James would remind him of his duties later, though. In private. His Beta had earned that much.

James snarled at the rogue wolves, “Why have you come here!?”

One wolf bit at the air, half snarling.

“We came to attack,” he admitted, his gaze not lifting from the ground. 

James’ wolves snarled, and they moved to attack, but James stopped them. He wanted to hear everything before he made a decision.

“We thought your pack was smaller than ours, so you would have less warriors,” the wolf continued. “We thought we could take of your food and medicine back to our Alpha, to our Pack. We hoped, though we had none, that we could find something that could wake the Luna.”

The wolf finally glanced up, though at Kenneth, not at James.

“We did not think your wolves would be so strong, in a land this tiny, we thought they would be weaker,” one of the other wolves, the only female with them, admitted. “We were wrong.”

They all bowed their heads; they had accepted their fate a long time ago. This had been a last attempt to save themselves and their pack, and they had failed.

“Should we kill them?” Bass asked, nonchalantly. His claws already extended.

“No,” James considered, staring down at the wolves.

“They acted without their Alpha’s command,” Bass reminded him. “There would be no revenge for these wolves if we killed them. And besides, you heard them, a dying Alpha, a sleeping Luna. How would they even claim vengeance?”

“We’re going to help them,” James announced.

And all five of the Sycamore wolves looked to him, confused. James heard their heartbeats quicken.

He even felt Kenneth turn to him in confusion, but his wolves remained silent, accepting their Alpha’s word.

“What?!” Bass questioned. “They attacked us! You heard them just now! They tried to steal our resources! They would have killed us for a few scraps of meat and some dried herbs!”

James placed a hand on Bass's shoulder, “This was an act of desperation. Loyal wolves trying to help their Alpha and save their dying pack. This was an act of great bravery and strength. They deserve our help.”

James dropped his voice low, but an Alpha’s edict came forward. 

“We are going to help them.”


When Eliza takes a position as a healer in the Red Timber Wolves Pack, she has no idea that she is close to the man who once stole her heart. James, the devoted Alpha, is shocked to see Eliza, the simple country woman who broke his heart three years be-fore. James still loves her, and is shocked to discover that Eliza does not remember him, their engagement…or their passionate love affair.

“James just could not understand. She remembered everything of their story, of their short life together. Elizabeth remembered their meeting, she remembered everything he’d told her, she even remembered the name he’d given her to call him.

But why, when the first thing she had ever known about him was how he looked, could she not remember his face?

James thought of jealousy at the persona he had created in her mind, of the wolf that now had a life of its own and an identity different to him. A wolf that now commanded Elizabeth’s loyalty even after years of absence.

A wolf that, apparently, no longer looked like him.

James felt a rush of irrational jealousy for his past self, his self that could act without consequence, that could love his mate without fear.

James stopped Elizabeth’s path, turned her to him and pulled her into his arms, kissing her deeply.”

Skip's POV
    These things... They don't give up, do they? As I and my dad catch our breath after a long-fought battle against the infected, one of them bit on my arm but I seem to remain unaffected. I recorded down my notes on how we thought about them, including one that attacked us with its biomass and a brain separate from its body.
After fighting one of them that floated without his legs, I used the camera to figure out a weakness of that monster. I pinpointed several of the ways in how to fight them, but-
"Son, we need to talk. Right now!" my father asked me.
"Yes, sir," I said
"Don't give me, 'Yes, sir' with me, I wondered about your earlier response when I brought up the subject for you having a girlfriend," he said.
Dad, please... Not now. This is not the time or place for the discussion.
"I meant what i -"
"Don't lie to me, you have shown no interest in women. Are you hiding a secret from me?" he accused me of hiding something.
"I am not hiding anything from you!" I bellowed while getting to his face.
"Then tell me this... When the others were teasing you, I saw uncomfortable you were with the whole thing. You had a thing for men?" he said to me.
What? How did he get a hold of that information? The only people that knew were Joe, Jenny, Sakura, Victor, Elizabeth, Jaycee & Bass. But I noticed my Dad will not let the matter drop regardless of what I do, so I might as well tell him.
Interrupted!
"There you are, discord!" It's that man sends his cronies after us. "Do you think you can evade us forever?" I clenched my teeth as it attempted to penetrate my mind.
 Thankfully, I have trained to fight and resist mind control attempts. Never thought I have to do for real in this case...
"Your mind is powerful, Mr. Fozen..." it saw that I can resist its mental attacks. "Truthfully, you are not that weak to our urging, sugarpie!" it spoke to me as a woman.
"Hah! I... I am not... interested in women." I said, struggling against the pressure. "You don't get that I am into men! Not the woman, I am not aroused!"
"That is okay, sweetie..." it turned into... No... Bass? "The One will accept you and embrace who you are regardless of your desires. We embrace all of it."
I clenched my teeth tighter. It fully intends to break my mind, it expects me to give up and join their hive mind. 
"Have you told your father, my beloved?" it asked me. "It seems to me, you love your secrets more than me..." It mocks me for the last time!
I'm fighting to see my beloved again... I'm fighting to see that our surrogate wife gives birth to a healthy baby boy... I will ... Stare... Death... In... the face...! I stood up, fighting its attempt to break me, charging up out of the power I got in me.
"My love... you would strike me?" the fake Bass asked me. "I am your husband and you belong to me!!"
"You would have... fooled me if you were the real bass!" I said while dispelling the illusion to see the real enemy before me.
Thankfully, I did enough research using the research camera function that allows me to pinpoint my enemy weaknesses. It also showed me techniques and methods to fight them effectively. The Sorcerer, however, can use magic spells in its arsenal, I need to have to use its cubes to attack me and then give a tremendous jolt. Resist mind control has also come in handy to repel mental attacks since I knew the sorcerers would try to attempt this.
"Die, Discord!" it raises arms to summon its cube, I wasted no one fire a powerful bolt of energy to bounce off from the cubes. It would attempt to defend itself from being fried to death.
"Nice try, Discord! Now-" It got hit in the head with one of its cubes... Dad!
"Motherfucker! You can tell your brothers & sisters that we not are joining their happy cult and to stay the fuck away from my family!" he took one of the astra cubes...
"My brothers & sisters will-" *Got slammed by an astra cube*.
My dad wasted no time bashing the creature's brains out. He didn't hesitate to use the astra cube to kill it until it became a pile of mush. He wanted to make sure it won't come back from the dead, which I applaud him, that's my dad!
"Now..." He said between breaths after beating the infected to death. "You were saying about research?"
"I'm gay..." I mumbled.
"What's that?" he said.
"I said I'm gay, Dad! I am in love with Bass Welton and we got married years back. Elizabeth and the team knew about it, even my 'Girlfriend' Jaycee knew." I confessed.
My father stood there angrily shaking his head, clenching his teeth on how he could have known since I hid this under his nose.
"I did not tell you because-" he turned back to me furious, I was expecting him to punch me.
"You son of a bitch..." he said as he gets closer to my face. "You are my son, I would have accepted you as you are. You could have told me long ago instead of hiding this from me!" he said.
"Dad i-"
"The rumors back at the Military Academy. At first I thought they were rumors. Then you have a girlfriend, but she was your beard... "
"She is going to be our surrogate wife, Bass and I are starting a family and Jaycee agreed to it, Dad," I said
"Father, huh? You could have said, 'Hey, I am a Gay man is in love with another man' or at least invited me to the wedding. You had me assumed that you were shy around the ladies and your reactions were clear when the female members of our team made you uncomfortable." he raised my hand to stop me there "And no, I am not some Homophobic bastard who start bitching & moaning that he had a Gay son in his midst." he said it. "You are my son and that part will not change."
"Wow! I should have asked or spoken up about it," I said, realizing that I didn't need to have hidden it from him. "Okay, Dad, sit down. Here is the research data about the Infected we had faced so far." I motioned to my dad.
Now we know the enemies we are facing and how to deal with them, Millie has given me her research camera on my holo-journal before she died, as it would become handy to know about our enemies to give ourselves a fighting chance against them.

The planetary government hired inface company to investigate an incident at the Aural Research station on Fionah. These are no ordinary mercenaries, they have PSI abilities, Telekinetics, and military training. When they arrive at the station, all seem calm and desolate, only to learn they have to contend with cybernetic threats, abominations, monstrosities, and dealing with the infection that turns humans into horrific monsters.

Will they survive despite being outnumbered and dealing with an enemy that is a step ahead of them?

"You couldn't wait until after his party to break his heart?!" Andrea shouts at me. I was getting out of the car as I numbly try to go about my day.

   I had woken up to cry as Mark held me. I cried like if I lost someone I loved so dearly. I went about breakfast with the Burke's with a blank expression barely talking, barely eating, barely existing.

   "Andrea that's none of your business. Calm down, people are starting to stare," Diana tells her.

   "I don't care!" Andrea grits out but much more lower. "You clearly had your fun and now you're ready to throw him away like an used tissue. I knew you weren't worth his time and love. You just strung him along to break him."

   "Andrea! Stop it!" Diana keeps insisting.

  Eyes were on us as I stood there letting her berate me. Robb and the guys were standing idly by. They had worried expressions as they looked between me and Andrea.

   "I hope whatever fun you got out of this was worth it." Andrea sneers as she ignores Diana.

   Andrea leaves me as the guys go follow her while I just stand there frozen and emotionless.

   I adjust my glasses before shutting and locking the car.

   I start head to class when I notice Diana was slowly following behind me.

   "What are you doing?" I ask her when I know she's following me.

   "I'm on duty today." She offers me smile but it doesn't reach her eyes.

   "Why? There's no need to guard me," I tell her as she continues to follow me.

   "Ander wouldn't want you to be alone. He said we still had to protect you."

   "Well I'd prefer you didn't. I don't want to owe him anything."

   "He's not doing it so you can repay him. He's doing it because he cares about you."

   I turn to her, "this is me. Bye."

   I walk in as Mr. Shwerb looks at me suspiciously but doesn't say anything.

   I ignore him to get to my seat. Ander is there but he doesn't say anything. He just stares out the window. "You look beautiful."

   "What?" I say.

   "You look beautiful," Ander tells me. He doesn't move to touch me but he does turn to look at me. He had shades on as well. I don't take mine off and neither does he.

   He goes back to looking out the window as I try not to break. I listen to music to drown myself out.

   I'm here. Focus on me. Mark tells me as my mind wanders.

   I go by the rest of the day as if I wasn't breaking inside. I needed to fix this but I couldn't even fix me.

   During lunch I went to my tree. "It's been so long," I tell it.

   "You're talking to trees now?" Jay asks me as I sit. Diana was there but hasn't said anything to me. In our physical education class she didn't speak to me either. I asked her things but she only gave one word answers. I figured that they all hated me just as much as Andrea.

   "What are you doing here?" I ask him. He looks hurt when I said that.

   "I thought we were lunch buddies. I can go," he says looking at the ground the whole time.

   "No, sorry. Of course we are. You're always welcome here."

   He sighs in relief as he sits by me. He gives me my three sandwiches as I hand him two turkey sandwiches with avocado, lettuce, tomatoes, and mayo.

   He beams at them as he eats. I don't eat as I sit back and close my eyes.

   "You want to hang out today?" Jay asks me. "We can train."

   I look at him as to see if he's really not Bass.

   "Oh, yes! I need training," Diana says.

   "Don't you hate me?" I ask them. They look at me confused.

   "No, why would we?" Jay says.

   Now it was my turn to return the look as I'm 100% sure they were there when Andrea went off on me.

   "Andrea obviously does, why not you?"

   "Andrea is just hurt. She didn't mean what she said." Diana defends her.

   "I'm sure she meant it and then some. I don't blame her I'd hate me too."

   Don't forget I'm here, babe. Stay with me. Mark has been more vigilant with me and I don't mind but sometimes I'd like to feel sorry for myself. I like to wallow.

   "Yeah well Andrea does what Andrea wants. Ander had assured us that everything is fine so  I believe him." Jay says as he eats.

   I give him two sandwiches back but he refused them. "I'm not hungry Jay. I'm not carrying them around to go to waste."

   He took them and soon ate them.

   I barely managed one. My appetite was diminishing and that is never a good sign. I had to eat the calories I burned but I couldn't bring myself to eat more.

   "We can go back to my house," Diana suggested.

   "I rather not. I think I'm just going to stay in so you don't have to follow me." I tell her.

   "I don't mind," she tells me with a small smile.

   "Mark will be there so there's no point."

   "Really, I don't mind." She insisted.

   "I rather not go home if you want to do something," Jay tells me.

   "Okay, we can train by my house. Just one thing, I need Bass." I tell Diana.

   She looked like she was having second thoughts about the whole training ordeal.

   "Just Bass, Mark and the others won't be there. Bass is a better suited teacher than I'll ever be."

   "Just one?" She tentatively asks. She looks like she's about to puke. "Okay."

   I nodded at her when she asked if just one. She doesn't look too sure of her answer. She dropped her container which made her blush. She was having a mini freak out.

   "I'll be there if it becomes too much I'll ask him to leave. I can make him keep his distance," I add as I try to assure her. Maybe I'm pushing her too much. She's clearly not ready.

   "No, it's okay. I can handle it," she tries to reassure herself more than to convince me.

   Should I be offended? Mark asks me.

  I snort as we head back to the building. Jay seemed excited.

   ME: How do you feel about a training session today?
   BASS: Always ready. Let me know what time.
   ME: Meet me at the Burke's after school.
   BASS: You got it, sunshine!

   I knew he would be up for it. I just hope Diana is ready.

   Ander walks by me. He opens the door for me as I thank him and head inside. He wasn't making it easy but it was comforting that he was around. I really didn't deserve him.

   "Jay let's go!" Andrea shouts at him.

   "I'm going with Vanessa. Go ahead without me." Jay responds.

   I was walking out as I had accompanied Diana to her locker. I was opening the door for her when we heard Andrea.

   "You're seriously siding with her? She's a traitor!" Andrea practically screeches.

   "Andrea that's enough!" Ander says forcefully. He looks livid.

   "Don't Andrea me! It's the truth, she practically used you. Stop defending her."

   "Jay, go it's fine." Ander tells him as Jay was there frozen. "That's between me and her, you have no business on the matter."

   "Yeah well I hope you open your eyes soon. She may be your mate but that doesn't mean she's right for you."

   "Andrea shut up and get in the truck," Robb tells her.

   She glares at him. "You're still going to the party." She huffs as she goes to get in the passenger side. Theo doesn't acknowledge me but he never really did so that's nothing new. Robb looked at me with what seemed like sadness.

   Jay looked scorned as he follows me and Diana. I had stood there taking every word she said to me. Diana is looking at the ground as she goes to the passenger side.

   I get in without further incident.

   "Whoa, a new student?" Bass says cheerfully.

   Angie and John were happy to see I had company they were worried about me since I left that morning. I told them we were having a picnic in the woods. Angie sets out to make us food. I don't say anything as I went to get a change of clothes.

   Bass had brought shorts for Jay but no shirt. Which I should have been more specific when I said to bring clothes for Jay.

   I was lending Diana clothes as we needed to change to be able to change after. To not arouse suspicion.

   I took the designer bag Ash had given me to use as a book bag to put the extra clothes in. I didn't have more shirts but I did have the one Mark had lend me. I grabbed that as I found her some shorts. Since she's smaller and slimmer than me mostly everything would not fit her.

   Once sorted I head downstairs where Jay was with John and Angie as Diana stood idly by.

   "So you're her friend?" Angie asks him.

   "It's not him Angie," I tell her. She looked embarrassed but nodded. "Thank you for this, we'll be back soon."

   I give her and John a hug and a kiss as I push Diana and Jay outside as they said their goodbyes. Now we stand before the wise Bass.

   He was more than ready to get started. We had to change first.

   I caught Diana sniffing her shirt a few times. She must have smelled Mark and was probably trying to place it or something.

   Jay was shirtless which made me look all over but him. I don't know why I always got awkward when skin is exposed. I always try not to stare. Diana felt the same way as she blushed when she saw Bass just as shirtless.

   "All right, get to wolfing!" Bass orders excitedly.

   "It isn't what you want to do Bass, Diana needs to ease into things. What do you want to do?" I ask her.

   She blushes more. "I'd like to do wolf form. We didn't get to last time and anything is fine."

   "Are you sure?" I ask her. She nods once in a stiff manner.

   "Perfect!" Bass clasps his hands.

   "You'll be doing offense. Try to catch me."

   With that Bass dashes away. We all look after him as if he lost his mind. I slowly smile as I look at Diana and Jay before running and shifting mid air. They soon follow as we all try to catch him as if he were a golden ticket.

   When I got close to him I was more than ready to bite into his leg when Diana pushes me out of the way. We snap at each other just as Jay dashes by. He was really fast. We ended up going after Jay instead of Bass.

   It took a long time to get to Jay but when we did we both ram into him from both sides.

   Jay howls as we leave him behind.

   Bass was now ahead of us that we almost lost track of him. I sniff the air for him as I follow the strongest one. Diana takes another route which has me questioning my decision.

   Jay caught up without a hitch as we continue to hunt Bass down. I follow my scent as Jay follows me.

   We caught up to him just as Diana tries to pounce on him only to collide with Jay I hadn't noticed he had left my side.

   Bass was now going up to the tree tops. I lock onto him as I try to see where he might come down to if he does so. I dash to a clearing where he might have to jump down to because the trees are too far apart to jump to.

   Once I get there sure enough Bass was coming down and I was more than ready to pounce on him when Jay shoves me aside with his head. I stumble as I roll to come to a stand. I growl at him as he misses his shot.

   Diana dashes past me as I shift back. "STOP!" I yell after them. Jay stops as Diana falters before they both come back to me.

   "We need to team up for this. We can't keep making each other miss him. Diana, you and me we will guide him towards the edge. Jay you stand by when you see an opening tackle him. He's fast so be faster. Got it?"

   They snort their agreement. I tell them to go as I shift back to my wolf. Diana and I set to do what I had tasked us to do. We almost mess up but we got to redirect him just in time.

   We had lost him for a second but I managed to sniff him out, that was our mistake. We kept it up for a few minutes until Jay found his opening.

   One second Bass is up and running the next he's on the ground with Jay on top.

   I shift back as I go to them. "Tap out Bass, we got you."

   Bass glares at me as Jay sneers at him. Bass sighs as he taps.

   "You cheated," Bass accuses.

   "You said we needed to catch you. You never said teamwork was out of the question."

   Bass grumbles. "Fine you won. Want another round?"

   Diana and Jay shift back as they come to stand by me.

   "No, you need to pay up," Diana says.

   I look at her surprised. "We never made a bet."

   "Well we should have. Next one if we manage to make you bleed you'll buy us dinner. If you manage to get back to our clothes unscathed then we.." Diana stops to think.

   "We will train with you all day any day you choose. The whole day. Nonstop." I say.

   They all look at me dumbfounded. I shrug.

   "We got this," I tell them.

   Bass smirks as he rubs his hands together menacingly. "You got a deal."

   I smile as he gets ready to start. I look at my team. "Diana you'll have to work with Jay in letting me get him. Even if you're close and feel you can get him, don't. I'll do the honors. Keep him closed in and as close to edge as possible. Got it?"

   They nod. "All right Bass we're ready. You go first."

   Diana and Jay shifted once Bass is out of view I turn to them. "Diana you get him. Me and Jay will distract him. He thinks it's me but it'll be you." I shift and we dash away.

   Bass was paying attention to me which was what I wanted. Once he thought I was the main threat he wasn't as vigilant to the others. Don't get me wrong he still kept them at a distance but he was focused on me. I leap towards him but he dodged me by crouching as I fly over him. When I crash land on my paws I run back to where he is. Jay manages to jump out of his way as Diana slowly but surely creeps up on him. When Jay goes for another leap Bass stops letting Jay dash right by him.

   I run to him next as Diana uses my attack to her advantage as he steps to the side she sneaks up on him as I completely miss but she locks on. She bites his leg as Bass falls to his knee. Diana had blood on her so it meant we had won.

   "Clever little wolf." Bass says. 

   We shift back as I walk towards him with a smirk on my face, "Never doubt that."

   We head back to the clothes in wolf form since we trailed too far away from them. Once we shift back I fall on the ground to rest a second. I reach for the bag to get water from it. Angie had packed a lot for us to eat.

   I hand Jay and Diana a water bottle as we sit on the ground.

   "So close," Bass mumbles. I laugh which he only glares at me. "This isn't over."

   "You're training tonight. Relax Bass. You're acting like you're preparing for war."

   A look crosses his face. He turns away from me before I can process it. Something was up.

   "What is it Bass?"

   "Nothing," he says quickly. "It's just those rogues are getting bolder. We need to prepare."

   I nod as it's true but something doesn't sit well with me. I don't push it. I'm probably over analyzing things again. Overthinking is my mortal flaw.

   "That was fun," Diana says.

   "I'm glad you have enjoyed your session with Master Bass," Bass says bowing.

   I snort as I take the food out. We eat as Bass tells us he should have brought his speaker that that's why he was beaten.

   "It's getting late, how long have we been training?" I ask them. Bass had left because he needed to pick the playlist for later.

   "Not sure but I should get back. I still have to train later as well," Jay says.

   I give them their clothes as we go change behind trees.

   "I can drive you," I tell them.

   "As much fun as this was I don't think I'm ready for the group one," Diana admits.

   "Don't worry about it. If you're up to it I can get Bass to come train us together."

   She smiles at me as she nods.

   "Besides this one was a more lenient one, the ones he plans for later are brutal. This was a more teamwork one." I tell her.

   "He didn't even say what it was," Jay says.

   "That's Bass. He makes you figure it out on your own. Since you can prepare all you want but it'll never come out as planned. He's more of go with the flow, come up with plans on the spot, kind of guy."

   "They are intense workouts. He insists we do it in the dark. Then he runs into the woods. It was chaos. Why can't they be like this? Ander tries to take leadership but ends up overwhelmed."

   "I bet, they do get a little too much. I had trouble as well took me a while to get the hang of it. Just remind Ander to not overthink, to relax and see what could help in the situation. Since you can speak to one another use that."

   Jay nods. We reach the house as John comes out. "I was about to look for you. I thought you might have gotten lost."

   "Nope. Just got talking so we lost track of time. Sorry." I tell him.

   He nods, "well then it's time for dinner and I'm not taking nos."

   Angie was asking so many questions that John had to tell her to breathe. Jay and Diana chuckled as she told them of how me and Mark would bicker doing lunches for us to eat.

   After dinner I had invited them to my room.

   "I love your room, especially your bed," Jay says as he lays down. He looks to be sleeping when he closes his eyes.

   "I love your night light," Diana says. She walks to my closet as I go sit on the rocking chair. I grab my bear to hug it.

   "Whoa, you have a walk in closet," she tells me in awe.

   "Why are your books so depressing?" Jay asks me as he looks at the bookshelf.

   "Not this one," Diana says as she holds Curious George.

   I snort a laugh, "they're not mine."

   They look at me confused but don't press.

   "Okay, I really need to get going now." Jay says.

   I walk with them as I go tell Angie and John I was dropping them off. They told me to be careful as they said their goodbyes to our visitors.

   "They were very nice," Jay tells me as we step outside.

   "They're the best."

   A car pulls in as it's headlights blinds us.

   Ander steps out, "hello."

   "Hi," I respond as Jay and Diana say goodbye.

   I wave as he pulls away.

   "Who was that?" John asks me.

   "Their ride," is all I say.

Vanessa Rye has dealt with many things in her life but one thing she never thought of comes crashing into her. Her mate, Ander Quinn, when she finally has to face her new reality things begin to get messy, lines are crossed, enemies are made, and life continues to push her limits.

CHAPTER 1
"Hey Rock, someone's at the door." Roll shouts after she hears a familiar knocking pattern. "I think it's Bass."
Megaman walks over to the door, & before opening it he says- "You didn't have to shout, I was only a room away." He then opens the door to no surprise sees Bass.
"Heey dude, how are you?" Bass asks loudly while patting Megaman on the head.
"Umm, can you stop that Bass?" Megaman asks in an irritated tone. "ok calm down, so, your sister is still out here?"
Megaman looks over at his sister & back at Bass. "Yeah, what's wrong with that?"
Bass starts to blush & then scratches his head. "Well, umm, I need to talk to you"
Roll then picks up her laptop & gets up "you may not like what he's gonna say, or maybe even DO"
Megaman snaps his head at roll. "what's that supposed to mean?"
"Umm, nothing" Roll says before exiting the room.
"So, uh, wanna sit down? I'll go get us some E-Tanks real quick" Megaman says awkwardly before quickly heading to the kitchen
Bass sits down on the couch looking around. 'I wonder if I'll be able to make my move tonight' He thinks as he stares at a strangely out of place candle on the coffee table.
"Hey, I found a pack of cherry flavored ones" Megaman says as he walks in & sits down next to bass.
Bass then takes a can & slowly sips at it. "Umm, Megaman" He says really quietly.
"Yea?" Megaman replies.
"Umm, I... uhh" Bass starts to shake causing some of his drink to spill.
Megaman looks at Bass with a concerned look on his face. "Uhh, are you ok?"
Bass looks up at megaman & starts to blush 'Shit, why does he have to be so damn cute' he thinks before saying "Uhh, yea, w, why don't we watch some TV?" While he frantically searches for the remote as if he were looking for a water hose to put out a fire, & the fire being his urge to kiss his friend who is right next to him.
"Uhh, I can just go over to the TV & turn it on, rush kinda ate the remote a week ago" Megaman says before getting up to turn the TV on
Bass freezes after noticing Megaman's really nice ass. 'So round, & firm looking' Bass thinks to himself as Megaman bends over to push the power button on the TV.
Bass' train of thought was broken when Megaman asked- "So, what do you wanna watch, uhh, why is your nose bleeding?" Bass replies with- "UHH, t. . the air is dry, yea that's it" as he quickly grabs some tissues & stuffs his nose.
"So, uhh, what do you wanna watch?" Megaman asks again.
Bass thumbs through the TV guide on the coffee table, "Uhh, how about our show?"
Megaman grabs the TV guide & looks at the time slot for the Megaman TV show "No way, I look fat in that episode" Megaman replies in a sassy tone.
Bass looks at Megaman in a slightly annoyed tone. "Huh? I haven't noticed" But truthfully he did notice, but not that he was fat, but he DID notice Megaman's very nice curves.
Megaman flipped through the channels & lands on some talk show. "Now here's a good show, see, that idiot with the not so red hair says stupid crap while the guests actually say funny things" He says as he sits down.
Bass continues to think to himself. 'Maybe I can get Elec man to fake a power outage & then light that candle, but then, what if I wimp out again?'
"Hey bass, are you hungry?" Bass doesn't respond
IN BASS' MIND
"Are you hungry for me Bass?" Megaman looks up at bass while on all fours on a big soft bed with a naughty look in his face.
"Oh yes" Bass proceeds to climb into bed & lick Megaman's ass.
BACK IN THE REAL WORLD
Bass is licking the opening of an E-Tank can. "Umm, hello?" Megaman nudges Bass.
Bass snaps back into reality. "WHAT?!" Bass jolts & looks at Megaman.
"Umm, are you feeling ok?" Megaman asks in a concerned tone as he stares into Bass' eyes.
"Uhh, yea, I think I just need some air" Bass walks out to the balcony on the other side of the living room 'What is wrong with me, why can't I just say those simple words?' Bass thinks to himself as he looks out into the night sky.
Megaman soon joins Bass on the balcony with a couple hot pockets "Can we talk Bass?"
Bass looks over at Megaman. "Uhh, s, sure, what about?"
Megaman puts the food on a table on the balcony & replies with- "Well, you've been acting very strange around me, can you let me know if something's bothering you? I'll understand"
Bass looks away from Megaman. "It's not that simple for me right now"
"Uhh, if you like Roll, then it's not that big of a deal so ling as you aren't all grabby" Megaman says between bites of his hot pocket.
Bass starts to gag "Oh my god, ew, why would I like her?"
"I don't know, so what is it then?" Megaman asks with a confused look frozen on his face.
Bass looks down at the street below. "Well, you weren't to far off the mark with what you said"
"Uhh, what exactly do you mean?" Megaman asks while finishing his hot pocket.
Bass looks straight into megaman's eyes. "Well, I. . . uhh . . . . I" Bass wraps his arms around Megaman & kisses him.
Megaman starts to blush. 'what's happening? Has he been wanting to tell me he loves me?' He thinks.
Bass quickly pulls away & looks at the ground. "I. . I'm sorry"
Megaman looks at bass "What do you mean?"
"You must hate me now" Bass says as he starts to tear up.
Megaman moves closer to Bass. "No I don't. I. . kind of. . Maybe feel. . . the same way" he says as he looks down while blushing.
Bass looks over at Megaman with one eyebrow raised "Y, you're kidding."
"Why would I be kidding?" Megaman asks.
Bass looks back down at the city street. "Well, I don't know why anyone would like me, except for treble, he's programmed to like me. But you, what could you possibly see in me?"
Megaman inches closer to Bass. "Well I find your dominating attitude very attractive, & I hear you're a softie."
Bass starts to blush. "I am NOT a softie" Bass snaps, & then looks away
"Well, for a guy like you, you are pretty sweet, even though you aren't acting like it right now"
"Ok, how the hell am I sweet?" Bass asks in a pissy tone after turning back to face Megaman.
Megaman scratches his hand & looks down at the floor. "Well, the way you held me when you kissed me was comforting"
Bass' face turns bright red. "R, really? I've never had anyone think that of me before."
Megaman leans into Bass. "I'm really tired."
Bass wraps his arms around Megaman & kisses him.
"EEEEEWWW" Roll screams making Megaman jump. "I did NOT just see that, that's gross
Bass aims his buster at Roll. "You shut the hell up right now you bitch"
"Bass, don't be so harsh" Megaman says in a scared tone.
Bass lowers his buster. "But she's being an ignorant bitch."
"I heard you Bass." Roll says in a sassy tone.
Bass walks up to roll & whispers. "If you ever say any thing like the shit you just said, I will have you dismantled. DON'T doubt my sources & connections"
"Whatever, I just don't get how two guys can ACTUALLY fall in love" Roll says as she walks away.
Megaman walks up to Bass & wraps his arms around him. "So, what do you wanna do now?
Bass' eyes light up. "I can think of a few things" Bass says in a flirty tone as he grabs Megaman's ass.
Megaman's face turns red as he feels Bass' fingers slowly getting closer to his hole. "D, do you really wanna do that?" Megaman asks quietly.
"Well, only if you're comfortable with it" Bass says while slowly loosening his grip on Megaman's firm ass.
Megaman slowly pushes Bass away. "How about you stay the night in my room & see how things go from there, ok?"
"Ok." Bass mumbles reluctantly.
"Yay." Megaman says with a smile. "Let me just get your sleeping area set up, & I'll call you when it's ready." Megaman then skips upstairs.
'I guess I can wait.' Bass thinks just before spotting the candle from earlier. "I'm giving Elec man a call."

I woke up and it was already dark outside. Damn did we really just sleep this long? God no! When I am home I am gonna get killed by my mom.... 

I felt pretty uneasy, thinking about going home now.

I looked at bass, who was still sleeping, on my chest. How much can you sleep, huh? I smiled, and the whole world around us seemed to vanish. Just you and me. I was so happy, I thought my chest would burn. Yet this wasn't allowed to last forever, so i gently shook his body, while whispiring into his ear: " Morning Sleeping beauty, it's already dark outside..." 

His eyes opened slowly and his clear green eyes, looked directly nto mine. "Sorry, I didn't know that I fell asleep, this week was just too busy...?" I looked right back at him, gently grapped one of his hands and properly apologized. "Sorry, it's all my fault!" Bass already wanted to say something, but I interrupted him. "Besides I fell asleep too..." 

Bass laughed and said: "okay, i give you half of the credit,How's that?" I joined him and laughed. "We can actually be happy that we haven't been sold as slaves now!" After having said that Bass laughed even harder and without thinking he loudly said: "That's, what I love about you!"

I knew that it was just him being thoughtlessly impulsive, but I still blushed like crazy and hid my head under my hair, while sinking down to the ground.

I was super embarassed, so my mind went totally blank. I pouted and screamed: "Stuuuuupiiid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupiiiid!!" I didn't dare to look up. When i heard Bass answering in a shy manner, i at least thought, that he is just as embarassed as I. My heart is racing like stupid. I can't even help it! I feel like it's going zo fall out of my chest, he just said he loves me. Well not me but my personality.... How can that be though? Argh, my head is a mess again. I raffled through my hair like crazy. I am totally out of it!! This damn thoughtless idiot. It's all his fault! 

But I also love that about him. I want to see his bad side, rather than want, I have to  see it! Or I Will die in this moment.

I felt his gaze on my burning skin, as he walked towards me. Ehhh? Eeeeeehhh? What is happening here?!

 He sank on his kness, furthermore right in front of me. I am sure that's not it, but how he does it....! Like he.... He... Like he would be going to ask, if I wanted to marry him. He is too close... His face, his face!

His hands reached out towards me but it shocked me so much, that I lost my balance and fell towards him. My eyes instinctly closed and i felt something pressing agains my lips.... What is it? I instantly opened my eyed and... 


His lips! His lips!!! I-We, did we just kiss?!! I rushed up, as fast as possible. It was pretty awkward now. I stumpled over my own tongue to say:" I-it wa-as just an accident, no-o biggy, ri-ight?" Wait, what the heck am I blubbering about, a single kiss is nothing for him. I am such an idiot! He didn't look at me but he was just like me, stumbling over his own voice:" Yeah, No-o biggy, It was an accident..."

 I suggested that we forgot what happened today and he agreed. Obviouly I would never be able to forget, My first and last kiss with him. I didn't want things to go awkward between us. Now that it was going great between us. I don't want our friendship, to be in danger.


He wanted to go already and i panicked a bit so I stood ip and went after him. "Where are you going?"  He turned around and answered "I am taking you home, what else?" I looked a bit shocked, I totally forgot! Hell is going to wait for me there.  "No!" I said it and couldn't take it back. I went to him, pulled his sleeve's and bowed my back. "I am scared to go back... I forgot to notify them... I know they must be worried but at least let me tell them, I stayed over at a friends place, Please!" He looked at me with an understanding face.
"Well then, come over to my place for the rest of the day." I was about to scream something like no way, but I had no one else to rely on, besides I would be able to see his room and that was just to promising. 

"Sure." He had a questioning look on his face so I asked What he has but he just said nothing and I didn't dare ask further. 

I am so happy, that I can stay with the person I love. To be honest, I was to happy and toooo relaxed around him. I just leaned on his back, as if it was normal on a daily base. I will take it. All of it, will be mine!

A girl that doesn't get how all those girls can be screaming at boys like, ''awwwe'' or ''kyaaa he looked at me'' meets an famous celebrity that every girl would want to be his. If she had known he was a celebrity she wouldn't have decided to be his friend, what will she do if she finds out about him being a celebrity?! Read now and find out!!

It was a beautiful day, and Arin Sexbang was sitting in the kitchen, having a bowl of boring ass cereal for breakfast.
But he was smiling and sighing hopefully.
And that's because he was texting with his crush: Rebbeca Johnson, but everyone called her Becky.
Or Beck.
One time he told her Beck was the name of a really cool band she should check out.
Their best album is maybe Colors or Morning Phase.
Guero and Odelay were really good, too…
Anyway, band name's Beck, but not to be confused with Jeff Beck, a really cool guitar player/band. 
Their best albums were Wired and Beck-ola.
She should check them out too.
If she wanted.
No big deal if she didn't, anyway.
And then he shut up and felt like a complete idiot.
Anyway, they'd been texting the usual, non-flirty stuff, they always texted about, but Arin was ok with that:
                                                                                                           "Good morning"
"Hi!"
                                                                                                          "How are you?"
"Fine (happy emoji)"
"U?"
                                                                       "Fine (happy emoji, thumbs up emoji)"
                                                                          "Tired because of math homework" 
                                              "(laughing with tears on its face emoji, crying emoji)"
"Didnt do it (laughing emoji with a big sweat drop on its forehead)"
                                                                  "Dont worry (cool emoji with sunglasses)"
"I'll let you copy mine (wink emoji, happy emoji with glasses)"
"Thnx (hands pointing up emoji, winking and kissing emoji)"
Arin was staring at that last emoji and grinning and blushing unconsciously.
He couldn't be happier.
But, as his 16 years had taught him, those moments of extreme happiness never lasted long.
And this was going to be no exception because, at that moment, the kitchen's passage door opened loudly.
There, in front of him, was his dad, the legendary Danny Sexbang. He had sunglasses and was wearing a blue silk robe with a red star on his chest.
And he had his blue bass hanging from his neck, all the way down to his crotch.
Like usual.
"So…" Danny Sexbang took off his sunglasses and shook his head lightly. His long, curly and magnificent hair swayed sideways. "You simpin', bro?"
"What?! No!" Exclaimed Arin, but he was blushing enough to give himself away.
"You sure?" Danny asked with a sly grin. "Who dat? She thicc?" He approached his son and tried to look his phone, but he hid it in his pocket.
"Dad! Stop it!" 
You may think Arin couldn't be more embarrassed, but he could.
And he would.
"Come on," Danny didn't know when to quit. "She thicc? She dummy thicc? She make that booty clap?"
Told ya. 
"And I mean T-H-I-C-C," Danny clarified. "Because calling someone thick, like T-H-I-C-K sounds like that person's really strong or something. Like thick as a brick." Danny stared at his son and kept silent like he was waiting for something.
"What?" Arin asked.
"And that's your daily progressive rock reference, brought you by Jethro Tull" Danny said like that wasn't weird at all. "Anyway, why don't you invite her to come over, so you can take her to your room and then cum all over her. Ok, sorry. Sorry. I'm so sorry. Sounded better in my mind." And he finally shut up.
Arin wondered how that would sound better in someone's mind, but it was be pointless, so he pretended nothing happened and started eating his boring-ass cereal.
It was soggy as fuck.
But he ate it anyway. 
Meanwhile his dad, slightly embarrassed and without knowing what else to say or to do, decided to play the bass line of 'Tom Sawyer' by Rush."
"Cool song," Arin said.
"Bet your ass it is," Danny replied. "Anyway, there's a NSP concert on march, so I gotta practice."
"But you don't play bass anymore," said Arin. He knew that would make Danny slightly but unreasonably mad, but he wanted revenge for all the embarrassment he gave him a minute ago.
Danny stared at Arin. He was slightly, unreasonably and predictably mad.
"You think is easy to play bass and sing at the same time?" He asked. "No, it's hard as fuck."
"Geddy Lee can," Arin said just to make his dad even angrier. "And he also plays keyboards sometimes."
"Well, that's because Geddy Lee is a national treasure!" Danny exclaimed. 
Alongside Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart, duh. But also Jim Carrey, Grimes and Robin Scherbatsky!"
"What about Nickeback," said Arin with a sly grin.
And his dad glared at him with bloodshot red eyes.
"I HAVE NO SON!" Dan yelled, left the kitchen and pushed the door as hard as he could in order to slam it, but it was a passage door, so it only swayed violently sideways until it stopped.
Arin sighed with a smile on his face, and then checked his phone.
No new messages.
That really was a shame, but he could hang out with Beck at school.
When she wasn't surrounded with all her super-popular friends.
Or those super-popular jocks.
Or her not-so-popular-but-still-popular friends.
Or just anyone.
So he kept eating his last spoonful's of boring-ass cereal.
And heard his parents arguing outside the kitchen.
"Why are you yelling this early?!" Arin's mom, Ashley Sexbang, asked. "And what are you doing with that thing?!" Ashley was probably referring to Danny's blue bass. She really, really hated hated it. "I've told you to leave it on your studio; you're gonna hit someone with that thing."
"I just wanted to be cool in front of Arin!" Danny replied. "But he mentioned again I don't play bass at NSP anymore. God, I'm really doing my best, you know! I'm sorry I'm no Geddy Lee!"
"It's ok, sweetie," it sounded like Ashley was comforting Danny, but Arin didn't want to know, tbh. At that point he had already finished his boring-ass cereal, but he didn't get out of the kitchen because he would find them comforting each other.
Or worse.
"I'm sure he didn't mean it," Ashley continued with the probable comforting. "He just gets mad 'cause you embarrass him so much. And you don't have to try that hard to connect to him, you know," Ashley said.
"But I don't want him to be a bitch-ass wimp like his friend Stevie," Danny replied, and yes, Stevie was a bitch-ass kid, but he also was Arin's best friend since first grade.
So Arin was okay with Stevie's wimpness.
And bitch-assness.
Even though it could be annoying sometimes.
And even though it wasn't helping out with all the Beck thing.
"Stevie is a nice kid," Ashley objected. She always said that when it came to him. Probably because that was the only good thing about him.
"Yes, but he's still a bitch-ass wimp," told ya, "and you know why is that?"
"Here we go again," Ashley sighed with the tiredness and annoyance who knew perfectly what his husband was going to say.
"Because of fuckin' Dwayne." Danny said. Dwayne was Stevie's dad.
And a bitch-ass wimp.
"But they love each other," replied Ash. "He's a good guy, and he and Stevie love each other." 
"I love my son, too!" Danny yelled. He was mad for a really dumb reason again. "But that fucking Dwayne gets on my nerves every time… No, Dwayne, I don't care about your car insurance or your stupid job as a sub manager at Costco! Shut the fuck up, Dwayne, I don't have time for your shit; I play videogames for a living!"

This is a Game Grumps fanfic. In one episode Dan wondered about what if he had a son in his twenties, and this is exactly that.
