D&D has always been a nice escape from reality, that's why I enjoyed it so much, hours in a fantasy world. So that's why it is pissed me off reading some stupid article about it, "The Devil has come to America." I'm walking through the cafeteria, heading towards the line up, reading this dumb report.
I couldn't help but laugh as I walk by a guy, long curly brown hair, cool style and nice rings, reading the same thing I'm reading. Specifically the the part where he reads out loud "sodomy, suicide, and even... murder."
As I walk by laughing, he glances at me and glances at what I'm reading, I look back at him as I slow down, and he just gives the biggest smile. I turn back around, and continue walking with a small grin on my face. Why haven't I ever seen this guy?
I get my food and sit at an empty table at the back of the cafeteria, watching as Mike and Dustin nervously approach the same table the guy was at.
I look back down at my food. I'm not that hungry today so I have a few pretzels and an orange juice-box. I sit there continuing to read what I was previously reading when I see the same guy step onto the table and say something, though I couldn't quite hear him until he started yelling about throwing balls into laundry baskets and making some cute devil face, which again, made me laugh.

After I finish my lunch, I head over to see Nancy, after meeting Steve and Mike, I've become pretty good friends with her as well. She's talking to Fred about how perfect things are with her long distance lover, when all of a sudden Mike barges into the room.
"Nancy!" He scans around the room a few times, then spots Nancy glaring at him. "Nancy, hey! Um, do you wanna join Hellfire tonight?"
Nancy let's out a breathe of anger and glares at him more intensely than before.
"Okay I'll take that as a no... Vee! How about you?" He glances over at me.
"What's hellfire?" I question, to which he kind of looks taken aback by.
"The D&D club... are you serious? Have you, the one with a D&D obsession, never heard of the club?"
"There's a D&D club? Are you fucking kidding me? Of course I'll play!" I reply, jumping up and running towards him.
"Great! That's one down. I'll explain where we're at on our way to Dustin." He responds, running back towards the door.

"Hey Dustin, I got Vee to join, did you find anybody?"
"No." Dustin responds with the most irritated look on his face.
"I hate high school." Mike replies with a sigh.
I stand there watching everything, realizing I'm about to be late for the next class but too interested in their conversation to leave just yet.
Dustin looks like he just discovered what the meaning of life as he muttered "so screw it."
When Mike asks what he's taking about, he jumps up and says "screw high school." And starts running, Mike yelling but still running right behind him.
"Okay guys, nice talk, thanks for saying bye!" I yell as they run off.
"Sorry Vee! See you tonight!"
"Those little shits."
