Time Is Precious

Chapter Five: First Lesson

Catie walked around in the white, open space, searching for an exit.

"Why am I even here?"

She kept walking and walking into nothing but a pure white open space.

"I want to go! Let me out!"

As she yelled, a tall, blonde boy appeared out of thin air in front of her.

"Oh crap!"

Catie put a hand on her chest from fear.

"You scared me....Who are you?"

Tao, the blonde boy, approached Catie slowly yet in a charismatic way.

"My name is Tao. I'm your guardian, remember?"

He spoke in a low tone, and lightly touched Caties chin.

Catie froze, and lightly blushed.

"Oh...yeah that's right, my guardian of time."

Tao moved his hands up to her cheeks, and softly caressed them.

"Now you remember. Yes, guardian of time. And always remember, I'll go to any extent to show you the use of time. It is my job you know."

This time, Catie was a burnt red.

"What do you mean to any extent?"

Tao chuckled, and got even closer to Catie.

"The only thing ruled out from that objective, is forced sexual acts. I would never force anything of that category on to you."

Tao got closer into Caties face, practically breathing on her.

"Tao, what are you doing?"

Catie was wondering why she felt so giddy with him that close to her.

Tao was centimeters away from her lips.

"Time to wake up, Catie."

Before Tao could even touch her lips, Catie shot up from her bed.

"Oh my gosh, why did I have a dream like that?! About Tao!?"

"What about me?"

Tao was sitting on Caties computer chair, playing with a small bouncy ball.

"Holy crap! Tao, why are you here?!"

Tao put the ball down on her shelf, and walked over to Catie.

"Remember, I teleported you here from school, you wanted to nap, I said no, you said yes, you threw a pillow at me, I threw it back at you, that repeatedly happened, and eventually I let you sleep, because I thought I could use it as a lesson in time."

Catie took a second to remember all that information.

"Oh that's right. Well what time is it?"

Tao snapped his fingers, and Catie instantly knew what time it was.

Catie looked at Tao with a questionable face.

"9 o'clock at night....how did I know that?"

Tao chuckled and sat next to Catie on the bed.

"Well, when I snapped my fingers, I let the time flash in front of you. But, it flashed in your head."

Catie smiled, and looked at Tao.

"That was pretty cool."

Tao nodded, smiling. He felt all cool. He looked over to Caties bookbag, starting his lesson in time.

"Catie, isn't anything due tomorrow in school?"

Catie scoffed at Tao, waving her hand.

"Pfft, no! I don't have any work to-...."

Caties eyes went wide when she realized something important.

"Oh my God, my History project is due tomorrow morning! I only have half of it done! It's going to take me hours to finish."

Catie looked at Tao who was smirking.

"Tao,why are you looking at me like that?"

Tao replied, still smirking.

"Catie, lesson one of time use. Put everything important first before you go and have your free time or relaxation time. It will keep your attitude bright, and you'll feel better because you won't have as much stress from before. Now I'll help you with your project. But next time, get everything done, then take the longest nap you want!"

Catie sighed, and walked over to her book bag.

"Thanks for the lesson."

"Oh you're welcome." Tao laughed.

Catie huffed. "I was being sarcastic, Tao."

He stood up, heading to Caties desk.

"Yeah, I know. Now let's start on the other half of your project, and get it over with."
