He wanted to draw her. He was sure I'd be a masterpiece; not because of his own talent but because any capture of her Likeliness, whether it be a single pen stroke of the side of her check drawn by the least experienced of artists or a full acrylic portrait by DaVinci himself. She was a living masterpiece. She was more than that; she was the universe, she was everything that has even been beautiful, every laugh, every glance, every touch. She was the Universe and to be in her presence was a miracle. To be with her was a freshly cut diamond in the sunlight, that refracts and projects the colors of the rainbow, constantly in motion, dancing along nearby surfaces like a perfectly choreographed ballet. A sight to behold. He was everything she had ever dreamed of. Someone to make her feel like she wasn't trapped. Without responsibility. He made her feel like time stood still, though their time together was limited. He inspired her, for the first time in a long time she could play piano with meaning; something she thought had been lost long ago. He showed her new places, new experiences, taught her how life could be outside of her family's bubble. He was free, a broke artist working his way through school. She was a privileged American girl whose every move was carefully articulated by her parents. He was her parallel who lived across the universe.

You had been attending the same school for over 15 years, obviously because you were born in the small town in North Carolina. You were living a pretty normal life, till all of the abductions started happening in 1977. But lets go back a bit. Lets go back to the year 1976. You had been on a night shift on November 18th, 1976. There were many more people than your previous shift. Really the only people there were dropouts, druggies, drug dealers, freaks, and alcoholics. All around the ages 14-22. Everybody was pretty chill with eachother, except for a few people, but that was just the minority. You had been zoned out while staring at the clock, then suddenly heard a DING! Some kid wanted to buy some cigarettes again. You looked at him and he said "Jesus kid, you in a mental insitute or something? Snap out of it." you ringed him up after he asked you for a pack of camels, and then looked at a familiar guy playing pinball. The same blonde that got over 100,000 his last time he came. Everybody started hyping him up, so he's trying to beat 100,000. You remember the mess you had to clean up after some kid accidently knocked over a bunch of beer. You like to not think about how it ruined your favorite pair of shoes. He messed up again, and kicked the machine. You yelled out to him "That thing costs money you know." then he looked at you. His face almost looked angelic. But he had been the jerk of your highschool, so he couldn't be that angelic. He looked away and picked at his pockets. He pulled out nothing. He started walking up to you and started asking for a dime. "Come on, I feed you guys this money all the damn time. Plus you will just get it back." "Then maybe don't waste all your money on pinball. We've gained around $200 with you coming here almost everyday. Thanks for that." and then you smiled while picking up your book. He looked at you in anger, then you looked back up at him. He looked like he was in a bad mood. "Here's a dime." you said handing him a dime.
