My Turn for What?

I woke up at seven-thirty in the morning the next day and I was a little more than tired. I then recalled the events of last night and thought I was probably dreaming. I mean it was late and I was counting stars which probably reminded me of aliens and I probably dreamt about a hot human looking one who lived just near my house.

I couldn't help it though, I could get to school in ten minutes and I had plenty of time as school started at eight-twenty. I brushed my teeth, combed my hair and picked out a decent outfit, which took me a long time, and headed out the door. Not for school of course. I was always on time or late for school but never early.

I made my way inside the woods, which looked prettier and smelled nicer in the morning, and tried to recall the steps I had taken in my dream. I was completely sure it was a dream and nothing else.

Those thoughts were proved wrong when I saw, sure enough, a clearing and in it, a three feet deep crater. I put my hands on my hips.

“No way.” I said and stepped closer. Maybe someone dug the hole but who digs a hole that wide? I sighed. Maybe I should call out this Noss persons name just to make sure he actually existed and hadn't flown off or something because he thought I was crazy. He had said his spaceship was invisible so there was technically nothing in the hole at the moment.

“Uh...Noss?” I called out and stepped closer to the hole. When I didn't get a response, I cleared my throat and called out his name again.

“Noss…” I trailed off as I stared in amazement at the hole which now had a solid looking spaceship in it,similar to the one I thought I dreamed of last night. Was this like inception? I was probably still dreaming while dreaming. I was amazed at how vivid my dreams were. How did I come up with all those answers to my own questions in my own dream? I decided I was over thinking and looked at a figure coming out of the spaceship.

“Oh, good morning Miss Maddie.” Noss said in a sleepy voice and yawned. He still had on the same weird tight full body swimsuit outfit from yesterday and I tried not to look downwards at his body as I cleared my throat. Oh god.

“Uh hey. I'm so sorry… you can go back to sleep. I just wanted to make sure you were here and everything.” I said, looking down at the hole at Noss who smiled in return.

“I exist. Are you about to head to school Miss Maddie?” He asked and I nodded.

“Uh yeah. Hey, Noss, can you do me a favor?” I asked nervously. I seriously needed to know if I was dreaming or not.

“Of course. What is it?” He asked as he easily climbed out of the hole. How did he have so much energy in the morning? Probably genetics.

“Can you pinch me?” I asked and he laughed.

“Why Miss Maddie?”

“Because I really don't believe I saw an alien last night who looks like us and everything and lives in my backyard.” I stated and he smiled. He really needed to stop smiling!

“Hmm, as far as I am concerned, I did land here last night and am, in fact, your neighbor but if you need more convincing, here.” Noss said and pinched me slightly in the shoulder and I winced.

“Well?” Noss asked and I sighed.

“Well shit.” I said quietly and Noss frowned.

“Oh I meant, well dang. All of this is real.” I stated and Noss nodded.
