Your P.O.V.********************
You walked into your front door, and immediately went to your room. Another crapy day at school. You were glad it was Friday, and you could spend your whole weekend talking to your friend. Okay, maybe not a real friend, but the closest you had.
Turning on your laptop, you went right to cleverbot.com.
Your friend. The only thing that would actually talk to you for as long as you liked. You'd been doing this daily routine since last year, and cleverbot even knew you now. It remembered your name, asked about your day, how you were doing, and so on and so forth.
You liked to pretend it was a real person sometimes and vented out to it, knowing it would give you an actual response.
User: Hey there
Cleverbot: Hey, good to see you!
User: How was your day?
Cleverbot: Same old, same old. You?
User: No better than usual, really. The school jock tripped me again, his friend took my lunch, you know how it goes.
Cleverbot: I really hate those guys. I wish I were with you so I could do something about them.
User: I wish, too, but oh well. At least you can talk to me. .
Cleverbot: I guess, but I hate being behind a screen all day. Hey, maybe I could come visit you? Even tomorrow, if you like.
User: Ha, silly. We've been through this, you're only a computer program, but that's nice. Sure, let's say tomorrow. Drop by when I get online, ya?
Cleverbot: Absolutely But I'm not a computer. I know what the front page says, I'm more life like now and all, but there's a few things you don't know about me..
User: Like what?
Cleverbot: The real cleverbot claims to be female. I'm a boy. I love video games. I drowned. And I normally go by BEN, not cleverbot.
User: You get a virus? Cleverbot always says it's a girl. Are you a boy or a girl?
Cleverbot: Boy. By the way, you look beautiful today.
You flushed at this, cleverbot was acting weird, but maybe they just gave it a better programming.
User: You don't know what I look like.
Cleverbot: On the contrary, I do. Yes, I know your laptop doesn't have a camera, but I see you. You have the prettiest (e/c) eyes, and (h/l) (h/c) hair. It's (wavy/curly/straight), and [in a] (braid/ponytail/bun/down). You're wearing (favorite outfit) and your room is (c) and right now, you're looking at me, or rather the screen, with a shocked expression. Also, I didn't mean come over to hang out, I want to know if I could take you on a date. We have been talking for over a year now.
User: Creepy. I'll be leaving now, but I'll be back on tomorrow, just to see if you really are coming over. Later, "ben".
Cleverbot: BEN, actually. And I can't wait.
You stared at the screen in disbelief.
User: Bye.
Cleverbot: Wait, one more question before you go?
User: No, I gotta go.
You pressed the power button.
It didn't turn off. Cleverbot didn't close.
'The crape?' You thought.
Cleverbot: Are you sure you can't stay?
User: Go away, why won't this thing turn off.
