Stealing Moments

New

That evening I walked home drenched with water. It was dark outside, and besides honking horns and police sirens; all I could hear was my feet sloshing in my tennis shoes. When I finally reached apartment 694b I heard the familiar sound of Sherlock. Sherlock was my friend and I's latest obsession. What better tv show. It combines hot guys, and smartness, what more could you want??? I swing the door open knowing she wouldnt be asleep. And by she I mean my roommate. I walk into the room. My best friend Lizzie sits on the bed with her tangled blond hair pulled up into a horrendous "messy bun." And a anti- acne cream smeared ALL over her face.
"Oh, hey loser. There's dinner in the fridge." She says still transfixed on the tv.
"Wow, like you have any room to talk. You have Guacamole smeared on your face," I laugh.
"Its not Guacamole; it is a rejuvenating skin care product. And its green because of its natural ingredients."
"Well, whatever it is, its weird." I heat myself up several pieces of pizza, and go sit next to Lizzie on the bed. As I sit on the bed I turn off the tv.
"What was that for?"
"I met someone! In my land,but he was kinda a jerk. But a REALLY cute jerk," I say enthusiastically.
"Oh my gosh!!! Oh my gosh!!! Oh my gosh!!! What does he look like? Is he tall? Have you ever met anyone in your dream land?"
"I know right!!! I haven't met anyone in my dream land!!! He is really cute; he has green eyes with just the slightest bit of blue at the edges. He also has super defined cheekbones, but hes not only cute... he is just so... new!!!" Lizzie and I talked about him for several hours, half the time getting off topic. Eventually, we both fell asleep with the echo of our laughs still bouncing around in our heads.

When I woke up that morning, Lizzie was sprawled out on the bed. Me on the other hand was laying on the ground like a dying fish. The awful ping of disappointment hit me when I realized that I had to go to my "AP Physics 2: Algebra- Based" collage course class. Then I close my eyes, I try to imagine my painless and perfect world. I only manage to look at my perfect place for a moment, and in that moment I see him. He is leaning up against MY TREE, and is looking at his watch; just waiting.
~~
"Hey, Liz... im going to get some air. Ok?" I said. Lizzie replied with her usual snoring. I nearly leaped up the steps. I was half way up the stairs when I realized that I was a horrible looking, bedhead! I jetted back to my apartment praying no-one saw me. I quickly brushed my hair, and threw some make up on. When I reached my spot on top of the roof; I layed down on my blanket and shut my eyes.
~~
When I opened my eyes, I was there. I could feel the dew sticking to my feet. I could hear the trees welcoming me, and I could see him. I approached him, and sat next to him on MY tree. He ran is eyeballs up and down me. Thats when I realized I was wearing my short, pink, laced, flamingo, pj shorts that went past mid thigh, and a crop top that revealed my measly 4 pack.
   "Oh, um well shiver. Shiver."
   "Its not really not all that cold. But i will give you my jacket. said
