I scrolled up and down the chat site, bored, as usual. I spotted a nicely filled room, and clicked enter. Now, what shall I name myself? I thought. I decided on one of my lesser known pseudonyms- Chrome.I stalked the conversation for a bit, immediately taking note of a certain user. The way he spoke was different, he was different. Reality check. I typed a quick 'Hello.' and sat back.
After going back and forth with average exchange for a little while, a comment aimed at me pierced through my train of thought. "I don't like you." Blatant and simple.
I frowned a bit, but soon that frown was replaced with a smirk. "And why not? Surely you cannot base an opinion on someone you just met, right?" I shot back. Silence, then a reply.
"I don't know. The way you speak, it just seems fake."
Seems like this person was not easily deterred. "Well, anyone on the internet could be fake. In this day in age, there's just no way to know."
"SHUT UP!"
I laughed heartily at his message. Quite frankly, he reminded me of someone I used to know.. Either way, the chat continued on, nothing directed at me from him. I began to feel tired, and was about to logout for the night, at least, until I saw a message from him.
"What's your Skype?" Ha! He actually though I was going to give it to him.
"Ne, but I thought you didn't like me? How do you even know I have one?" I snickered.
"Almost everyone has one."he wrote back.
"Give me one good reason why I should give it to you." I retorted.
"Because that's the nice thing to do. Plus, I'm giving you a chance, to prove to me that you're not a hateable person."
Fine, fine, I'll humor him. "It's Okay? Now, goodnight."
I logged out before he could respond. Fat chance he was actually going to add me. I checked my Skype. Nothing. I sighed, closing some programs I had open. Suddenly, I heard a notification sound off. Beast would like to add you on Skype. Wow, he actually had the audacity to add me. From The Shadows has shared contact details with Beast. Our conversation went like this:
Beast: Hello?
From The Shadows: Hi.
Beast: Quite rude of you to just leave like that.
From The Shadows: It's not like anyone cares, right?
Beast: I did.
From The Shadows: Good for you.
Beast: You're annoying.
From The Shadows: Then block me.
Beast: No.
From The Shadows: Why not? You dislike me and find me annoying.
Beast: Because... whatever.
From The Shadows: Tell me?
Beast: Forget about it.
From The Shadows: Wow, okay.
From The Shadows: Look, I'm going to bed. Goodnight.
Beast: Night.
I shut off my computer and walked to my room, sliding into bed. I couldn't help but toss and turn, for my mind raced with a thousand thoughts. I was unable to get him off of my mind. I definitely didn't care for him, however, he was quite interesting. Guess I'll have to talk to him more tomorrow.
