(JOEY'S P.O.V)

I saw myself sleep. I was sitting on the desk chair near my bed. Is this a dream? I wonder. How can I watch myself. I sat up from the chair and opened the door. I shut the door behind me and made my way down the hallway. Nothing looks different to me. Same house. Same furniture. Same everything. I walk into my parents room and see my mom on the floor laying down while bottles of alcohol surround her .I pick all of them one by one and throw them out in the kitchen trash can. Wait a second...its 12:04 a.m. I think to myself while glancing at the clock on the wall. If its late...why is there sunlight coming from the window.I slowly open the curtains and I was stunned by the view outside.I ran to the front door and opened it. I ran outside and stood on the porch amazed. I looked around and there were villages, soldiers, tents. Is this a dream or a fantasy? I turn around and notice that my house is no longer in view instead, it was a castle guarded by knights and shining armors. I glance down to my feet and notice heavy shoes and in my hand I am holding a long shiny sword with my name engraved onto the sharp blade. I notice my hands have brown leather gloves. I feel something heavy placed above my head so, I raise my hand and pat my head. I felt somehing round and pointy. I grabbed the object from my head and looked down at it...a crown. Am I a prince? What is going on? Where am I? I walk up to the gates and it slowly opens enabling me to walk out. I walk out and curiously walk around and look at everything closely. I saw a few children playing together in a big field bouncing around a ball. A basketball. The ball slips from one of their hands and it rolls up to me. I pick up the ball but, they walked up to me and pushed me around and called me names. I was hurt and I started crying. Who can blame me...im only 10 years old. There was a boy sitting on the bench right across from me. He saw me being bothered and you can tell he saw the pain in my eyes. We made eye contact for 5 seconds until everything turned pitch black.
