Another Omniverse Away

Chapter 1: Simply Average

  This life. These restrictive boundaries. This shitty town with the same faces. You knew this had to end, and soon. It seemed like everyone here in (insert name of hometown) wanted to leave and pursue a bigger and better life but the weight of the world, basic responsibilities, and lack of money persuaded them to not even try.

You tried to distract yourself from the merciless doubt when you could but some nights it got the best of you. You felt like the supposed "best years of your life" were wasting away. I can't even stand myself. I graduated from high school 2 years ago and here I am working as a clerk in the local A.C Moore and living in my cousins fucking apartment. Other people my age are out living a life of excitement, yet here I am a 20 year old virgin that spends all her time daydreaming. You thought while standing up from the window seat and putting your laptop down. You walked to the kitchen, opened the fridge, and saw a styrofoam box with a yellow sticky note that read "I Picked up some chicken wings for you because I figured that by the time your lazy ass was awake, it would be lunch time. -Erin" You reached in and proceeded to heat up the left overs. "You magnificent bastard!" You said and chuckled.

Carefully licking the barbecue sauce off your fingers, you headed back to the window seat and plopped down while grabbing your phone. After watching leafy's latest video, you logged onto Instagram and saw you had a follow request in the notifications. " @what_are_you_fucking_gay Who the hell could this be? You decided to stalk their pictures from 2013- forward. While scrolling through the endless memes, you stumbled upon a shockingly attractive picture of a guy with a movie star-like smile and big geeky glasses. Instant lady boner. In the picture, he was accompanied by 3 other guys. One was a fat guy with a man bun, another was an undoubtedly hot Japanese-looking man, and the last one was wearing a princess peach costume with shaggy brown hair.

You accepted the request and continued browsing through your favorite edgy 14 year old meme lord accounts. Within a few minutes, the account that followed you, sent you a DM. Oh great. An unsolicited dick pic. Exactly what I need right now. But you stood corrected once you clicked to see. The message read: "Hi! You probably don't know me, but I saw that you like (insert name of favorite band) sooo I figured you must be pretty chill. If you care to chat, hmu anytime." You were thoroughly surprised that the stranger was actually decent and not a fuckboy. You started to type back and shortly after, started to send memes pertaining to your favorite band.
