The Most Formidable Thing

Taking a Different Path :)

Hi guys!

Nyx here —

As you have likely already noticed, I have not been active on Wattpad for a while now, and I feel awful for never completing this story so I've decided to at least provide you with a compromise.

I will not be able to complete this story, at least not for the next while, so I have decided to do something interesting with it. I still really like the concept of this story and I had it set up to continue in the future, but I just can't find the time to focus on it and produce good content for it with college and work these days. So instead, I'm more or less giving away the rights to it! I still consider it my work, of course, but I'd love to see if you guys want to do your own spin-off of it, so you are free to use my work and continue this story in any way you want. Only one condition — If you could give at least a little bit of credit that would be great...and please tag me in your published story spin-offs so that I can see what cool things you've done with it! ;)

Also just as a disclaimer,  I am giving you guys permission to use my work in THIS specific story, but if you'd like to do spin-offs or sequels/prequels to  "You're Okay, I Guess",  just DM me — as long as you give credit, I'll likely be fine with it! I would love to see what amazing stories you can produce off of my own ones, just so long as you don't pass off my writing as your own :) Plagiarism is a real thing!!

Again, I'm so sorry for never following through with this one, I hope you all can forgive me! As a consolation, I have pasted down below the first kiss scene (WOAH) between George and Clay that I had planned to happen in one or two chapters (you are free to use this scene if you'd like as well 😊) 

Lastly: My DMs will still always be open even if I'm not going to be an active writer for a while, so if you have any questions, concerns, are in need of writing advice or maybe just need a friend to talk to — please reach out! I am here for you if you need me <3

"Really?"

The air in his bedroom was cool, their voices hushed whispers.

"Yeah."

Then, through the comforting blanket of darkness that surrounded the two of them, George felt a warm, soft hand gently touch his face.

He held his breath.

Clay stroked a finger across his cheek delicately, tracing his jaw. George dared not move, for fear that the other would retract. He felt his own heart rate increase ten fold; the subtle yet raw act of affection giving him goosebumps.

Clay moved in closer, carefully cupping both of George's cheeks with his hands.

George was suddenly glad for the lack of light in the room, which hid the visibly flustered state he was in. His face got hot as he realized, almost subconsciously, that he could feel the tickle of the blond's breath against his lips as he got nearer.

Finally reciprocating the act of affection, George reached his arms up, feeling around for Clay's torso in the pitch black darkness. His hands found their way to the back of his neck, moving along his warm skin and all along the edge of his soft, lightly-coloured locks.

Clay's lips came into contact with his shortly after, and George's heart soared through his chest. The kiss was delicate and meaningful, the feeling of it sending shivers down his spine. 

Clay gently broke off, resting his forehead against George's own. He moved his thumb across George's cheek once more, smiling sweetly.

"You, George," He whispered.

"You truly are the most formidable thing."
