I was only out for a few hours till I felt a tap on my shoulder. A groan escaped my lips when I moved away trying to fall back asleep feeling another tap.

"Whattt"

"Sweetie, I left you some money for the grab and go" my mother whispered, kissing my forehead walking off. I pushed myself off the couch kicking the blanket away reaching my hand over picking up the ten bucks she gave me just enough to get some candy and maybe a pop. I got up walking back to my room searching around picking up a few coins for extra money before heading out the door. While on my way I noticed the same boy from class riding his bike with a slight smile on his face. He gave me a quick look waving at me before peddling off faster. I waved back slightly with a shrug. He was just probably being nice. I still kept walking, keeping my head slightly low. The town wasn't that exciting beside a few things, so nothing was really catching my attention.

I finally got to the grab and go everyone from school was surrounding it talking amongst their friends' discussing things or just shoving each other around. I moved past a few girls who were talking about cute celebrities. Pushing the door open I was welcomed with cold air from the running fan. Thousands of candy stock the shelf, anything a kid could dream of. There were also comics around the store to keep anyone busy for hours and the walls were painted with the galaxy, but one thing caught my attention. Right by the back near the window was a pinball machine but some guy was already there playing with it, the same guy I had run into at school early this morning. Maybe I could get a chance when it's less busy. I walked over to the back picking up (f/c) bar and (f/s) taking a glance over at the machine once again before walking to the counter paying for both of my things.

"You fuck up my game!" someone yelled behind me. I turned my attention to seeing the guy throwing one boy into the comics while two others were trying to fight him back. I grabbed my things moving out of the store, still watching the fight from a safe distance. Even if the boy was outnumber by three, he kicked all their asses it was surprising. The cops came soon though, walking inside the store dragging him out.

"There goes pinball Vance" a boy whispers while drinking some coke the girl next to him nodded her head watching the cop car speed off. When the show was over, I was heading back home seeing my father park his car in the driveway as he came walking over to me.

"Kiddo, how was school?"

"It was fine. I met a girl named Donna and then the rest of school got bored up until gym where it was kind of fun. Then mom gave me some money for the grab and go. That was all" I said not mention the fight. If he heard, I was near a fight he wouldn't be too happy.

"The grab and go? I remember that place it was the hot spot for any teenager just to hang around and enjoy that's where I met my first girlfriend actually-"
"Okay dad blah blah don't care" I said waving my hands in front of my face walking inside the house. My brother was sitting on the floor in front of the tv waving his tiny arms around at the colorful screen. Mom was in the kitchen cooking a meal for dinner while on the phone talking to someone. I drop my bag of sweets under my bed to hide it for later tonight pulling my blanket down.

"I'm going to shower!" I yell out walking into the bathroom turning the faucet letting the water run for a while dipping my hand under feeling the boiling water wrap around my fingers. I took my clothes off, throwing them into the hamper stepping under the water lowering my head. Sadly, the water didn't stay warm for long as the water turned to freezing cold forcing me out. I pulled a towel around me walking back into my room searching around for a shirt and some pair of shorts pulling them over.

"Dinner ready!" my mother yelled. I came running over taking a seat as she handed me a bowl of (f/m).

"Thanks mom" I said, picking up my utensil and digging it into the meal taking a bite. My mother smiled heading into the living room picking up my brother, setting him in his highchair giving him a small plate of what I was having. I quickly finished my bowl, setting it in the sink and walking over to my brother giving him a kiss on the forehead. I walked back into my room pulling out the goods jumping onto my bed pulling a book while eating some of the sweets. I lost track of time until my mother called out.

"Goodnight sweetie get some rest for school tomorrow!"

"I will!" I yelled out throwing my trash away, turning over, switching the lamp off laying back against the covers yawning a bit pulling the blanket closer closing my eyes. It took a few minutes before feeling the darkness wrapping around my mind pulling me into another endless strange dream with no meaning.
