Home Away From Home

Chapter 16: Home free

I shoot up from somewhere, and look around. This isn't the Nemphis! Wait... I'm home! In my house. I look down at my computer, where I'm still on Minecraft. I look at my reflection in my laptop's screen, and I can see drool dripping down the side of my face. I must've fallen asleep on my keyboard. As I go to the kitchen to get a paper towel, I think about what just happened. Was it all a dream? I go back to my computer, and wipe up the drool, wiping my face while I'm at it. I throw the paper towel out, and sit back down. I stare at my screen again, and think about it some more. Am I sure? Did it really happen, or was it just a dream? I still can't tell. I looked at the time in the bottom right of my laptop, and it says 5:36 PM, June 28, 2015. I was away for pretty much a month! Time must've slowed waaaay down when I went into Minecraft. If I really went into Minecraft. I see my dinner on the table, and it's one of my mom's burger, with just the meat and bread, like I love. I get up from my computer, sit down at the counter, and take a big bite out of my burger, closing my eyes to savour the taste. "Oh look, you're awake, sleepy head." I open my eyes, and look down the hall. My mother is standing there, looking at me. I swallow my bite, and smile at her. "Yep. I had a really weird dream too." By now, I'm pretty sure it was a dream. "I was in Minecraft, with my friends." She shakes her head at that bit of information. "Honey, you're watching too much Minecraft. And that YouTuber you watch." "His name is Stampy." I say, and she smiles. "Right. Anyways, I'll leave you to eat. I just came down because I heard you walking around, and I wanted to see if you were awake." I nod at those words, and she goes back upstairs. I immediately go to text Sarah on Skype, and she answers after I say, 'Haiiii!!!!!! :)' Yeah, I'm really enthusiastic with my texts. 'Hai c:' She says, and we chat for about ten minutes, before she has to go eat dinner. By now, I've forgotten that I have my burger, so when I see it out of the corner of my eye, I grab it again. I eat everything, put my plate next to the sink, and walk back to my iPod. I grab it, and bring it over to the couch. I plug my headphones in, lying on the couch, and watch some YouTube. Pat and Jen, to be exact. I watch their newest vlog that was uploaded just now, but I don't comment that I was first, because everyone knows that if you do that, a million other people will think to do the same as you, and you'll actually come twenty-eighth (GMM reference, anyone?!). I grab my laptop, thinking to play a bit of Minecraft, when a Skype notification pops up. I gasp when I see who it's from, get up from my comfy spot on the couch, and do a little happy dance.
And then I crash back on the couch, sitting up cross-legged this time, and tap the Skype tab open. Yes, I have a touchscreen laptop. It's handy, but you gather a habit of it, so when you go over to your friend's house, you tap their computer, and then you remember it's not touchscreen, like your laptop is. DERP. Anyways, I see my eyes weren't tricking me, because I got a message from the one, the only, HORUS365!!! I smile, and look at his message, still watching my video out of the corner of my eye. 'Hey, that was really weird', he said, and I type back, 'What?' 'The Minecraft adventure thing' he says, and I gasp.
Because just then, Pat and Jen had said something strange.
Pat and Jen took turns saying certain parts of it.
"So, we just wanna say that something really weird happened to us today."
"Yes, we got sucked into Minecraft!!!"
"We met new people there, and let's see if Jen can remember their names!!!!"
"Um... There were the bad guys, BajanCanadian, and SkydoesMinecraft, and the not so bad guys, Deadlox and Seto... There was CookieKlassen, but we called her Sarah... There was pawfast10... Also xChaoticTragedyx, but we called her Crystal or Chaotic... There was Horus365... And last but not least, there was 2besties."
"Wow. That's pretty impressive, for Jen."
"*laughs*"
But I didn't hear the last sentence and the laugh. I paused the video, wide-eyed, and scrolled down the page. I saw the comments, and they said stuff like,
"Lol, that's impossible!!"
"I seriously expected him to say, "JK!" At the end!!"
"First!!"
"This must be a fansion video sorta thing, right?"
But I leaned back on the couch, and got lost in my own world of thoughts.
People think it wasn't real.
But me and my friends know different.
It was real, and we know it.

So I got back on my laptop, and messaged Horus again.
'It wasn't a dream...'

Thanks you guys, for reading this book! By the way, before I started writing books on Wattpad, I was using notes, and I let my sister read my Dork Diaries one. She asked if it had actually happend, and obviously it didn't, so I'm gonna say this right now: **DISCLAIMER** THIS DID NOT HAPPEN!!!! I just wanna make that clear. Also, I'm going to be starting a Sqampy book, but it's not like the others. It's gonna be way better! But first, I'm going to work on the SAO book on the Ender_Besties account! Yay! So hope you enjoyed the book, and tell me if you did, or what you would change.
Thanks guys!
2besties :) <3
