School
I pulled in the parking lot earlier then I had expected there was
no one there except some teachers and janitors. So to waste some
time I began to draw in one of my notebooks, nothing really in
particular just some squiggles and scribbles. Suddenly there was
a strange noise so I looked up, it was just one of the janitors
rolling a garbage bin to the dumpster, but the weird part was
that when I looked back down, my picture looked like a scene that
I had recently seen, there was ( what looked like) snow, in a big
wide open meadow, and there was this one little detail that I
noticed that made me remember where this scene had come from, a
figure was standing pretty far away from the perspective of the
picture. My dream.
What startled me after that was the tap on my window that I
hadn’t expected; it made me jump so high I almost hit my
head on the top of my car. I looked up to see who it was which
shocked me even more, James was standing outside my door laughing
so hard that I thought he was going to stop
breathing.
“Wow, you get scared
easily, don’t you?” He said when he finally clamed
down.
“Only sometimes.” I
told him trying extremely hard not to sound annoyed, which is
easier when I’m not freezing my butt off. He smiled wider.
“Can I help you with something?” I let a smidge of
annoyance sneak in there.
“Not really… just
checking to see if you were still alive.” James smiled
more, clearly still not over my almost stroke.
“Well… I
am…” I said pretending to look occupied while I
gathered my stuff trying now extremely hard not to sound
rude.
“Yeah, I can see
that.” He stepped back just as I turned to open the
door… a little strange if you ask me because I
didn’t show any sign that I was going to get out but I
didn’t really care too much to ask. So I got out and
started to walk towards the school he didn’t follow me
which I was kind of glad about, I still didn’t understand
why he had knocked on the window and I really wanted to know why
but after a little while I decided that I was obsessing to much
over something so stupid and I dropped the
idea.
