Road To Nowhere

An Unpleasant Encounter

Ah friday i sighed sitting in my desk trying to come up with ideas for a short story. Tapping my fingers on my desk one at a time until finally an idea popped into my head "BY THE BEARD OF MY ANCESTORS!!" I yelled jumping from my desk excited until i realized everyone was staring at me with their mouths open. Crap. I thought sitting back down, this was starting to become a common occurance. Writing down my idea before i could forget then shoving it into my bag before flying out of the classroom, i had plans with Anna and Lukas and by golly i was not about to be late! Bursting through my door i tore off my clothing faster than i ever had before, changed into normal clothing and ran back out the door. Panting by the time i reached Lukas's house i bent over gasping god damn i am out of shape. Well i am a shape, if potato counts. I thought to myself giggling out loud before straightening up and heading for the door, knocking once before i heard a voice like nails on a chalkboard saying " come in" i winced taking off my shoes , wandering through the livingroom i looked up in time to see Lukas's mom bessy sitting on the couch with her foot in her mouth. I froze mouth partway open then came the chalkboard voice again " just trying to get this hang nail!" Whoaaa bessy. I thought quickly leaving the room. I ended up in a fit of giggles on lukas's bedroom floor trying to explain to Anna what i had seen. "She was chomping down like a squirrel on a nut!" I exclaimed as we both dissolved into another fit of giggles. That's how Lukas found us, both hunched over laughing so hard we could barely breathe, our faces red and streaked with tears. "Women." He muttered sitting down as we slowly regained composure still giggling here and there. Now bessy isn't just a nickname, no. It's her real name, i'm not sure what she looked like as a child but the name bessy certainly suited her now she is a fucking cow in every sense of the word. I had never before seen a woman with makeup and that much of a beard. Sickened yet curious comes to mind. Thinking about it i started laughing again which in turn made Anna start laughing again and there we were for the millionth time that day rolling around howling with laughter like savages. That's what bestfriends are right? The person you can act like a nasty monster around and they accept you because they know when you clean up you look like a fucking goddess. Finally tired of our antics Lukas put on some bad horror movie that basically consisted of bimbo's running around to the wrong part of the house and being murdered. Origional. I grinned and challanged Anna to a hardcore game of rock paper scissors which ended in the usual way, we got bored and decided to look for food. After making alphagetti's we decided to finally sit down to watch a movie, turning off the bad slasher flic and instead putting on silent hill. Covering our eyes and squeeling, by the time the movie was finished we decided that we had to be stupid "should have just stuck with the bad movie" i mumbled. Looking up i let out a high pitched scream noticing bessy standing in the doorway. " Why did you scream?" She questioned me " you can see me just fine!" I raiesed my eyebrows shrugging "that's exactly why i screamed." Grabbing a bottle of disinfectant spray from the shelf i sprayed the front of her shirt before carefully pushing her back using one finger, then closing the door in her face. I turned back to Anna dusting off my hands and grinned "well that takes care of that!" I looked down at my phone, "shit! It's 12:00 already!" I gasped and turned to the door, but not wanting to risk running into bessy again i opted for the window instead sliding it open before catapulting out of it tossing a casual goodbye over my shoulder at a bewildered Anna and Lukas. Realizing my mistake too late i crashed into the fence, sighing to myself "i zigged when i should have zagged." Dusting off i started off down the street towards home still grinning to myself.
