I was looking into the mirror brushing my teeth getting ready for my first day of school. I was going into the first grade which was a big deal to me. I was so nervous of how real school would be like in Ireland. My siblings went to the same school so at least I would have a few people to talk to. I went to spit my toothpaste out of mouth and rinse my mouth. When I looked back up at the mirror I saw someone standing behind me. I jumped and turned around to see no one there. I went into the hallway and saw someone standing at the end of it. It looked like a stranger but when I got closer to it I noticed it was a kid. He looked my age, he was dressed in all black and he looked just like me. I stepped closer to him and he stepped back. He looked frightened by me, I wasn't scared though, if anything I was curious.
"Don't be scared." I said reaching my hand out.
"Who are you?" He asked.
"My name is Fergal, what's yours?" I asked.
"I'm....I'm Bálor." He said calming down.
"Nice to meet you Bálor." I said.
".......Nice to meet you too" He said shaking my hand.
"What are you doing in my house?" I asked.
"I don't know, one minute I was somewhere else and the next I'm here." He said.
"Where did you come from?" I asked.
"Hell." He said.
"Oh....my mom says Hell is where bad people go. Are you bad?" I asked.
"No....are you?" He asked.
"No." I said.
"Do you have any friends?" He asked.
"No I haven't started school yet." I said.
"Can I be your friend?" He asked.
"You want to be my friend?" I asked.
"Yeah." He said.
"Ok but you have to promise to be my friend forever." I said.
"Ok I will." He said.
"Pinkie swear?" I asked holding out my pinkie.
"Pinkie swear." He said wrapping his pinkie around mine.
10 Years Later
I was at my first highschool party and I found myself hanging out with this girl I just met named Vanessa. I didn't know much about her other than she was in the same grade that I was in and that she wanted to be nurse when she grew up. In the middle of the conversation I looked over and saw Bálor standing on the other side of the room watching me. He beckoned me over to him which meant it must've been important. I excused myself and went over to him.
"What?" I asked.
"Who's that?" He asked pointing to Vanessa.
"Her name's Vanessa, why?" I asked.
"Do you know who her boyfriend is?" He asked.
"She's single." I said.
"That's what she tells you." He said.
"Fergal what's wrong?" Vanessa asked walking over to me.
"Nothing I'm just...I need some air." I said walking out front.
"Hey are you ok?" She asked.
"Yeah I'm fine." I said seeing a car pulling up on to the front lawn.
