   I was walking by myself through the wet streets of this small town, people here were silent as they can be. Not even one sound was heard except for the crashing rain from above. The water itself was freezing, that it hurt when it touched my bare skin.

   It's actually a very bold and uneventful day, nothing has happened. I did my homework when I woke up this morning and watched some T.V. and did a little bit of mind stalking. I thought about nothing but Adam. He was so nice and kind to me the other day. And I still can't get over the fact that he called me beautiful!

   For a person like me, getting called beautiful by a God, a guy at that, is something incredible. It just makes any insecurity disappear. It might even make me ask him out from all the self-esteem I'm getting. Every girl and gay guy should have a boyfriend that always compliments them on how beautiful they are. Yep.

   I wish Adam was my boyfriend...Am I being a little weird? I think not.

   I walked inside the candy store and I was severely drenched from head to toe. Thank God for the rugs, or I wouldn't be allowed in to buy my daily dose of sugar. I grabbed a small plastic bag and went down the sour candy aisle. I began to pour as much sour gummy bears as I could then I wrapped it and tied it in a knot.

   "Hello Jasper, how are you this evening?" Ana said from behind the counter. I gave her the correct amount of money.

   "Good and you?"

   "Wonderful, have a good day."

   "Thank you, you too."

   I walked out. I hated these kind of conversations that last a few seconds. It's not like I really care how you are but you have to be polite and ask anyway. I walked down the streets, eating a few gummy bears and staring at the people who were running away from the rain.

   I enjoyed walking around the town and the parks. I might even visit the forest as long as it's day. But I'd have to bring Anasa along for protection.

   As I turned around the corner I bumped into some girl I've never seen before and she does not belong here. Just the way she's dressed tells me shes from a weird state like New York or something. She belongs next to Lady Gaga.

   "Sorry." I told her and walked around her.

   "Hey wait." She said and I quickly stopped and turned around as I chewed on another gummy bear.

   "Do you know where I can find an Adam?" She asked.

   "Adam? Is he new to this town?"

   "I think so."

   "No sorry, I just met him today at school but I don't know where to find him. He lives with his aunt though, if that helps."

   "Actually that does help. Thank you." She said and left running.

   "You're...welcome..." I said and walked the opposite direction. Once I turned to walk I bumped into another person. I was starting to get annoyed, but saw that it was Adam. I took a hand full of gummy bears and pushed them in my mouth.

   "Hey, what did you just tell that girl?" He asked while he grabbed my shoulders. I stared deeply into his eyes and almost dozed off.

   "Sowwi wha? I av my muth full o gooy bars." I mumbled. Yes I did this intentionally. I didn't feel like making a fool of myself by not knowing what to say. So I'm making a fool of myself by having my mouth full.
