1ST PERSON POV - ALEX

"Come on dude , you have to come round!"




The moon lay high in the sky as my discord dms filled with party invites. I cannot go one day without them can I?

"When will it end..." I murmur as I take a look at the multiple invites, quietly cursing after seeing the training part. I would love to go, but I feel I'd get my identity as a spy known as I'd be way to good and... yeah.

I carry on looking through, how the fuck did they even find out my discord , most importantly, its meant to be private! I'm just going to ignore them, its pointless and I don't have the time. Closing the app, I hear Jack calling me from downstairs.


"Alex! Dinner is done," finally, I can escape the nightmare of this mess my friends made.

"Coming Jack!"



Rushing down the stairs, I smell the spectacular food Jack made for me. Ever since my uncle died, I haven't truly had the motivation to eat anything , and with my missions as well, it doesn't help.

"I thought as your moving into a new school year you deserve a good meal." Oh yeah, new school year with that really strange group of kids. 9 of them, I think. I haven't actually had the chance to talk with them, as 4 of them aren't even in my year, one of them is... strange with their art obsession. 

Enough about them, I am starving!

"Thanks Jack," I say before quickly eating my food, all of the flavours crashing into one another. Its been a while since I've had such good food, the schools is terrible.

"You should head to bed soon, its getting late," As Jack's voice processed in my ears I had finally noticed the time. 11pm?! 

"Your right, I'll go now." I get out of my seat, going to the stairs, "Goodnight" I head to the bathroom , reading myself for tomorrow.

(So that's the 3rd chapter done, (not really) , and I'm currently just thinking of whether to start my goodnight Mr Tom stuff or wait until I get to a point in a story to hold it.)

(Also advice would really help, I'm currently going to do a lot of these chapters between 11-12pm so nothing to hard to understand)

(Also if a word seems basic, its because I thought of a good word but I forgot how to spell it, so yeah.)
