The walk home from my house was 15 minutes, at least. I didn't mind it at all, and I preferred it to the alternative. Biff's car was like a deathtrap to me. He just drove it too fast and I hated it. Life wasn't always a race, right? I didn't want to live life on a fast track, rushing into anything, and Biff's car was my nemesis. Besides, walking kept my figure in tip-top shape.

I saw a lot of things on my way home. Pretty houses being the foremost of what I saw. The types of houses with white picket fences out, and a small dog yapping out front. The type of house with a superb green lawn with a small kid slide out front. The types of houses in which small kids would play outside while their parents watched from the window with a fondness only parenthood could muster.

They were my favourite type of houses. I smiled as I passed a particularly pretty house with a little poodle out front, who yapped at my presence. I blew a kiss at the dog and it yapped happily again. I continued on my way before abruptly stopping when I saw a figure in a tree.

I couldn't quite decipher who he was, but I saw that he was looking at a girl through her window as she got dressed. I grimaced and stuck my tongue out in disgust. Who was this peeping tom? I was curious. Walking closer, I looked up.

McFly? Oh, that was doubly as gross!

"Hey, McFly. Nice view?" I cupped my hands and yelled. George, who was gripping onto a big branch with one hand, jumped in shock and came tumbling into the middle of the street. I started laughing, hard. What I failed to realise until a few seconds later was that there was a car coming tumbling down the road and I could tell that if something wasn't done soon he would be hit.

'Shit!' I repeated in my head, before reacting as fast as my reflexes could. Running to him, I pushed him out of the cars way and tumbled down as the car hit my head on. The car wasn't going fast, being on a residential street, therefore the hit was only enough to make me tumble to the ground. I felt the solid rock gravel on the road hit the back of my head. I hissed in pain, my head pounding as I saw two identical men in a grey suits quickly run over to me and crouch down next to me.

'Huh, they look scarily the same.' I thought before passing out, my eyelids fluttering closed.


I woke up in an unfamiliar place, gasping for air as I got up. I tried to look around, but my surroundings were dark. My heart pounded. Suddenly, a light-switch flipped on and the girl from class was found next to me. I jumped and nearly fell off the bed, yelping.

"Whoa! Calm down!" I quickly composed myself and touched the back of my head. I then felt searing pain. I winced. The girl quickly grabbed my arm and shook her head.

"I'll get you some medicine, it must hurt." She quickly went into her bathroom and ruffled through the medicine cabinets. I felt uncomfortable and awkward being in an unfamiliar house at night with a girl I barely knew. A few moments later, she came back to her side with two tablets and a glass of water. Accepting it, I chucked the two tablets in my mouth and took a sip of the water, gulping them down. The girl -- who she was still yet to know the name of -- smiled.
