I was at a little party or something with a bunch of my friends. I was talking to my friend Maurice.

"You ever gonna talk to her again?"

"Talk to who again...?"

"You know who I'm talking about!"

"What...?"

He sighed. He took a deep breath and said, "BANG BANG BANG BANG" until I shut him up with a sucker punch to his chest. He doubled over in pain and laughing fits.

When he got back up, I slapped him, and he laughed even harder. "You're dead-"

He cut me off with a "Hey Jemma!"

I froze. "Hey Maurice!" Footsteps from behind me. I looked at Maurice, who was trying not to laugh.

I swear if you say "bang" one more time I'm gonna fucking smack you so hard...

She passed by.

I let loose a sigh of relief. He chuckled. "You're a dick..."

Time lapse

I was sitting on the amphitheater at school, alone. I popped open a can of redbull and chugged it.

Footsteps behind me, but I paid no attention to it. They got closer and  a shadow appeared over my head.

I turned around, and saw her looking down at me. I nodded in greeting and she returned it.

I pulled a redbull out of my bag and offered it to her, still not saying a word. She took it with a small smile, and sat down next to me.

We leaned our backs against each other and enjoyed each other's company in silence, not saying a word. The awkward tension that we've had for so long, was completely forgotten, like nothing had even happened.

I woke up.
