Nothing can beat the serotonin that seeps into me when I'm laying in the dark of the room listening closely to my some of my favourite songs as I watch the rain pour hard against my window. Not often did it rain here but every time it did I would stop what I was doing turn the lights off and lay in bed to just watch it. It relaxed me and I did it ever since I was in my young teens.
I huffed. Even though I was in my most relaxing state of mind I still wasn't happy at least not fully and I don't know why. Ever since I got into my 20's adulting has gotten a lot harder, much more stressful. The only things I enjoyed doing was gaming when I could, crime podcasts, going to work and watching all the horror movies in existence. I was your average alternative dude or what everyone now a days calls "edgy emo boy" I had that fluffy gamer boy style hair and brown eyes and I liked dressing in dark clothing. I was somewhat muscular but not a buff looking guy I consider myself just an average dude.
I got up out of bed and when I stretched I heard a pop from my spine. I looked at the time and I noticed I've been laying here since most the evening. It was now ten at night I walked over to my bedside table grabbing a tiny box I had and opening it. I grabbed something from it and went outside in my backyard. I pulled out my little silver lighter and also took the joint I had tucked in my pocket out. I put it in my mouth and lit it. Taking a deep pull through it and closing my eyes.
*Bzzzz!*
I peeked one eye open and saw a text notice on my phone I picked it up to see who messaged. It was my friend Trevor.
Hey man whatcha up to?
I replied back.
Nothing really just smoking a joint lol.
Nice bro! Hey listen I'm hitting this sick costume party tonight you down to join?
I raised my eyebrow to the last text he sent. A costume party? I've been to many in my life but never a costume party I think it might be fun but I'd have to find something to wear. I wrote a reply back to Trev.
Sure man I'm totally down I'll have to Uber though because I just hit some pot
Man don't worry you're on the way to the area so I'll pick you up myself.
Sounds good see you soon then.
I got up and headed back inside. I needed to find something to wear. I went in my room and pulled out chains from my drawer I put the bigger ones on my black jeans and a small barbed wire one around my neck. I pulled off a ghost face mask I had hovering over my computer desk. He was my favourite horror icon. I slipped on a white button up and threw a fancy black vest over it. I looked like an alternative British boy ghost face. I heard the screeching tire of my friend's car. He did that every time he came over and honestly I'm surprised he hasn't damaged his car yet. I grabbed my house keys and went out the door it was still raining and I walked to his car as he was trying to wave me to walk quicker to get in his car. I opened his door and sat in it he looked at me up and down seeing I was already drenched in rain from how hard it was pouring
Dude! Next time bring a damn umbrella you're literally drenching my seat
I looked at him in silence for a minute and then shook my wet hair as a dog would after getting wet.
I'm gonna kill you
He punched me in the arm and I laughed.
As if you can say anything about me drenching your seats your car is an old piece of junk
Don't say that about Silvia
I cocked my eyebrow at him.
You named your car?
Well of course I named her. Also I'd prefer you don't talk to her that way.
He pat the dashboard of his car as I scoffed and rolled my eyes.
Anyways.. are you ready to go?
I nodded.
Also.. what is this getup you're wearing are you a rich little Scream?
Okay first off his name is ghost face and I just threw something together since I really don't have a costume.
Ahh well guess what I am
I looked at his costume and was confused. He had doctor scrubs on with a heart patch on his chest.
A heart surgeon?
Uh no I'm a loveee doctor. This shit us gonna get me laid tonight
You're gross and no one is going to get your costume as the "love doctor"
You're always so judgemental
Ain't judgemental if it's the truth.
He didn't say anything else and looked annoyed. He huffed and turned the ignition on.
