A story dedicated a to a wonderous girl I met in college... though it happened at the hands of an enemy, it was the best thing that ever happened to me.... so here goes!
I quickly rushed into a Kangaroo gas station. It was about 10min from Mars Hill University and I....I was a gambling addict. " I'd like to buy one powerball lotto ticket please," I huffed rapidly tapping my fingers on the counter. "Sure no problem," the clerk reached over and pulled a slip from behind her, " Uhh what's your numbers going to be?".
It was my first time doing the "powerball" lottery and I was anxious, sweat pouring from my face, " five, six, ten, twenty-three, fifteen..... and....two," I hesitated as she handed me my card. Turning away, I realized I had spent the last of my paycheck on this lottery ticket. All week I had been gambling and it was getting worse! Holding my ticket, I slid into my car and pulled out my phone. BUZZ.. BUZZ I looked down, and read the name "Loki". I slightly smiled, "Loki" was the name I'd given my friend Madison due to her love for Tom Hiddleston. She was tall and slender, had grayish-blue eyes,short dark brown hair, and took on the image of a fifteen year old boy at first glance. We had met weeks ago, but now that we were closer it was a pair that could never be broken. More like what Mjölnir was to Thor, or what food was to Beast Boy.
"Hello?" I spoke into the phone.
"Your never going to belive this guess what!!?" she screamed.
Eyes widening, " Oh my gosh what happened are you ok!?".
" LOL!" she laughed, " I'm fine," then screaming again, " I'm soo excited Tom Hiddleston is having a Comic -Con in London!".
I could'nt believe what my ears were hearing, " You can't be serious," I replied.
"I am bruh and I want to go too," she groaned
" Well yeah who does'nt want to go?" I answered, " Even then it cost money to fly there and to get tickets."
There was a gasp, then exhalation, " I think that I was too excited to think about money," I listened to her groan, " Well... thanks for bursting my bubble".
"Madison I'm so-," the phone clicked and there was silence, " Me and my fucking big mouth," I smacked the steering wheel, revved my engine, and headed back to college.
