Just a Dream- A BajanCanadian Fanfic

Chapter Three

I got up and ran out. Why me? Of course there were people laughing and staring. 

I ran to the bathroom and went into a stall and started crying. I couldn't help it. What would you do if everyone turned on you and you felt like you have no one left?

"Lauren?" I heard Jerome's echo.

I didn't answer. 

"Come here please." He said sympathetically. 

I wiped my tears away and got up. "O-okay" 

I walked over and looked at him. He pulled me close and hugged me. 

"They're dickheads, don't let them in your head. Plus either way you'd beat them in any video games. You got power moves dood." He rubbed my back. I smiled. 

"Thanks Jerome. You're a great friend." I answered. 

He let go. 

"Now lets get our shit and leave this place."  I laughed soft and agreed. 

We ran to our lockers and grabbed our bookbags and snuck out of the back of the school. We ran to my house and of course we were laughing the whole way. 

"Hey Lauren. I think I know who is moving here." Jerome finally said after laughing. 

"Who?" I answered as I turned my Computer on.

"My old friend Mitch. I play minecraft with him and sometimes record it." He said.

"Oh really? That's cool." I say. Of course those flashbacks of dreams come up again. I wonder who that guy is? It's been bothering me for quite a while now, but who cares. I'm never gonna find someone like that for me. 

"Hello? Earth to Lauren. Jerome here with the forcast." Jerome yells.

I laugh "Haha sorry dude, I was thinking." I say giggling. 

"Well either way I gotta make you a Youtube channel because I want to play some Minecraft with you dood and I would like to record it for mah channel." He says.

I raise an eyebrow. "Jerome I don't have enough money to get a microphone or a recording software." 

"I can pitch in. I don't mind" He says smiling.

I think for a second. What could be so wrong with recording with Jerome and maybe his internet friends? I smile. "Alright." 

"YEAH!" He says loudly. I laugh. 

"Can I skype Mitch really quick on your computer?" He asks. 

"Go ahead I don't care." I say. 

He logs on to Skype and I lay down on my couch and open my phone and play some games. 

"Oh so you got a laaaady frand don't ya?" I hear a voice say. 

"What?" I say as I look over and see Jerome laughing. 

"Mitch is just joking. He likes to joke around with me." Jerome says and starts laughing again.

"Yeah. By the way who is your lady friend?" Mitch says.

"My name is Lauren." I raise an eyebrow, get up, and walk over.

Jerome wraps and arm around me. "She's my bffl." He jokes. I laugh. "I'm gonna help her make a youtube and make some videos with her." he finishes.

Mitch smiles. "I guess I will too then." He smirks. I raise an eyebrow. 

"The fuck is with the smirk?" I ask. 

He laughs. I laugh too. My god he has a cute laugh. Wait wut.

Jerome looks at me. "Looks like you have another friend." He smiles.

"What are friends? What is life?" I fall over and pretend to die. They both laugh and I laugh too. Wow so this is what it's like to have friends. 

"Well we're going to go dood. If you would like we can hang out tomorrow." Jerome says.

"Alright. See ya then. Bye." Mitch says as he ends the skype call. 

 I grab a chair and put it next to Jerome and sit down. I wonder if anyone would watch me play minecraft. 

"First we need to come up with a name for you." 

~~~~A COUPLE HOURS LATER~~~~

I sit upside down on the chair groaning. Jerome laughs. 

"So you're Lauren'sBlockyWorld?" Jerome asks.

"Sure why the fuck not?" I laugh. "It's a silly name." 

"I know, but I gotta go. Since you're an amazing artist, you can draw your profile picture and make your minecraft skin."  He says.

"Alright. See ya tomorrow Jerome." I smile. 

He kisses my cheek and goes to the front door. I blush and turn away quickly. 

Oh god. 

I run upstairs and lay down. 

It's going to be a hell of a day tomorrow. I smile and close my eyes and fall asleep.
