Chapter 21
Just a lovely game
I wasn’t even worried about our run in with Talia, in fact, I almost forgot about it. The rest of the day was spent on purely fun and I found myself humming as I unlocked the front door to my house. It was eerily quiet but I just shrugged, entering the house I found Ryler sprawled on the couch again eyes opened blankly.
“Are you dead?” I asked. “Because if you are it’ll be a pain to move your body.”
He gave me a mock offended look. “Are you calling me fat!”
I rolled my eyes, smiling. “Your such a disappoint to the men in this universe.”
Ryler shrugged. “Adam left a while ago, something for the folks, and I’m bored.”
“Well, what exactly do you wanna do?” I asked.
“Something that prevents me from boredom…” he glances at me. “Nice outfit by the way.”
I blush sweetly, glancing at my cute colorful dress that I picked out for the day. “Thanks.”
“So…wanna play a game?” Ryler motions to the xbox 360, and I laugh.
“No, no, no,” I shake my head. “Got sucked into it, when Adam was in high school. Never. Again.”
“Oh come on! You can be a princess but a warrior too, you know tough and…something. I need you for this, I can’t play on my own.”
“Why not?”
“Boooorrrrinnng!”
“So it’ll be nice to see me fail!”
“Lady Pam Jones of Farkstad-”
“What?”
“Made it up! Will you please join me in a game of games.”
I snort. “So magical.”
“Please? Even as I’m wondering in the game I’ll keep you in my sights.”
“Are you going to start singing I can’t fight this feeling anymore or are you asking me to play a game?”
“Please? With a super duper red juicy cherry on top.”
He gave me the puppy dog eyes and I cracked. “Fine! But one game!”
He gave me this bright smile that made my heart flutter, and threw a controller in my direction. I glared at it, but sat down. He put a game in the thing, and I narrowed my eyes at him. “What game did you put in?”
“You’ll find out,” Ryler said, grinning mysteriously.
I glared at him, but waited none the less. My jaw dropped. “Left 4 dead!”
“First one, you’re a noob, no skipping. I’m Louis.”
I saw a girl and immediately picked her. “Zoey.”
A few minutes later and I was yelling at him and he was yelling at me.
“Stop shooting me! You shoot the zombies!” He yelled.
“Stop getting in my way! You keep interfering!”
The next few minutes we were whooping and jumping since we won.
“Wow…I thought you’d suck at it.” Ryler says.
“While thanks.”
“Your pretty good, you should try those online games.”
“No way, I’m booked. Busy buddy bee, that’s me.”
“Good thing I’m staying here, or I wouldn’t get to see you much as I like.”

This is what you call the Earth
This is what people call the world
This is what we call life
We can't go on pretending day by day
That good things will always happen
Stormy days will come, it's not a miracle
But the storm will end soon, and all will be clear again
Heavy rain's crashing against my windowsill
I think, when will this ever stop?
The thunder's crashing against the trees outside
Today's not going to be a fine day, but it will end
I woke up this morning and guess what I saw
Bright sunny mornings with a clear future
No one's gonna stop me from believin
The rain stopped and the future's bright again
Good and bad create our lives
We can't pretend that everything's gonna always be alright
It's hard to think that something's gonna be wrong
But it's the truth, the whole truth.
We can't go on day by day pretending
Everything's gonna be alright
But we know that sunny days will come out
Soon or later.
