Chapter 4: A Night Out with the Guys

(A/N: Ok so I'm writing this for two reasons. 1) Multiplayer beta is lit. 2) Today in class I wrote a story about a guy with a dead mom and can hear toads constantly and my teacher said I should consider a career in writing because it was really good despite the odd topic, so I'm inspired)

It was a Saturday evening at the Stardrop Saloon, and you were hanging out with some friends you made. There was Abigail, a young adult that loved living an alternative life style. Sam was a classic rock n' roll kind of guy, and Sebastian was very emo guy that spent most of his time on the computer. They were around your age, so you would join them on Saturday evenings to play pool at the Saloon.
It was getting late, so you ordered one last round of wings before you would leave. While Gus was preparing the wings, you noticed Fruit Snacks Man from earlier in the week. His mug of beer was empty, and he seemed out of it. As if he was completely lost in thought, completely unaware of his surroundings. You wanted to do something nice for him, whoever he was, to make up for the rocky start. After all, getting along with everyone is ideal. Wings in one hand, beer in the other, you held out the beer.
"It seems like you're needing a little more," you said generously, giving him a small, yet friendly smile. He returned the favor with an even smaller smile, yet it looked so sincere and sweet on him.
"Thank you," he replied. "I appreciate it." You didn't see how you could carry this conversation so with nod, you walked back to the pool table. Wings were eaten, laughs were exchanged. All was good. You were trying to get in the habit of going to bed early to accommodate for the early mornings, so you left to go home early.
