You Frustrate Me Incredibly

The Game

I walk on the side of the road with "Amadeus", by Falco, playing on my headphones. I wanted to relax, so I told Steve I didn't need a ride and I thought I'd walk to school. As always he was resistant but I have my ways of convincing him. Plus Robin.

I walk to the beat of the song. I do that a lot. Sometimes I don't even realise. I like this song, but I honestly have no idea what the lyrics say. I just mumble jiberish. I don't know a lot of German. A little though. Once I checked a Greek dictionary. It's really interesting , acatually. But, hell it's complicated.

My mind wanders too much.

I arrive at school kinda early. I guess I was walking fast. So, why not take advantage of it. I search through my bag and take out my pack of cigarettes. I take one out and light it up. I take a drag and breathing out I let the smoke fill the air. If I'm being honest, weed would be a lot better right now. This situation would probably be way less agonising if I got high first.

I see Dustin and Mike approuching

"Damn it", I whisper to myself

I throw the full cigarette down to the ground and step on it to put it out. That one got wasted. I don't want them to see me smoke. I know Dustin is completely against it. What the hell does he say to Munson? Maybe he doesn't know. Would he? He's real smart, he would.

"Y/N!", Dunstin's voice snaps me out of my thoughts

He comes over and hugs me

"You came", he says stepping back

"Well, I keep my word", I say "And you would get annoying if I didn't", I add with a smile

"We were so scared that you were gonna stand us up", Mike says letting out a sigh

"No, I'd never", I say sympathetically "Now, what are we waiting around for? Let's do this", I say heading inside and they follow along.

The school hallways at night seem weird. I haven't been at school at night time many times. It's so quiet now. In the morning everyone's talking left and right. It's so loud. I like quiet places better.

We approuch the door and I'm kinda anticipating. It's been a long time since I've played and the fact that I won't be able to enjoy it cause of Munson really bums me out. Maybe it won't be that bad. I'll just focus on the game. The game.

Mike and Dustin walk in the club. I take a deep breath and follow them in. Everyone turns and they meet my sight. They stop talking. Munson is still preoccupied with whatever he's doing. He realises the silence going on.

"Guys? What's going on?", he says turning around

As his eyes drop on me his face falls

"What the hell is this?", he says with an angry smile

"You asked for a sub. We delivered", Dustin says as pleasantly as possible

"I asked for a sub. Not a bug", he says with a fake smile

I roll my eyes at him

"Don't you fucking roll your eyes at me, Y/L/N", he says getting up and walks towards me

"I'll do whatever the fuck I want, Munson", I say stepping closer to him intimidatingly

He laughs arrogantly cocking his head

"You sure you wanna rise to this challenge, Y/L/N?", he says with a smirk

"I'm gonna crush your little disgrace of a campaign", I say confidently

"Oh really, Red Empress?", he says in a sarcastic tone. Did he just call me by my character name? I've played D&D once before when Gareth had have bugged me about it all day long. He remembers it? Damn, how I wanna rub it in his face.
