I tipped back in his chair. I closed his eyes and tried to stay calm... But the messages just kept popping onto my monitor...
Vicious: I think we should just be friends
Vicious: I really like you but I'm not ready
Tom, that is to say me, tried to stay calm longer. It was getting hard. A major chunk of me felt missing. I opened up the window to send a message to his friend Raul. That was just the name he went by. He didn't know his real one.
Uberlegen: I feel like I've got nothing left to live for.
Uberlegen: I just got dumped. There's nothing holding me here.
Raul: Then why not leave?
Uberlegen: And go where?
Raul: What about leaving the world?
Uberlegen: How could I?
Raul: Learn the truth. Meet me at Quickeez at midnight if you want to leave and learn the truth behind your dreams and thoughts.
Uberlegen: I do.
It was already 11:40. I closed AIM and shut down my computer. I walked over to my couch. I didn't have a bed just a leather couch that I slept on. I grabbed my trench coat and removed my cell phone from my messanger bag. If I was going I might as well be warm and prepared. I walked into Zach's room. My pale brother with ink black hair was still up in front of his computer.
"I'm going out to meet a friend. I don't know when I'll be back. If the parents ask tell them not to worry"
"Ok, but if you can grab me a bottle of Dr.Pepper."
I couldn't help but suppress a grin. I walked out of his room closing the door behind him. I walked down stairs and out into the dark cold night. Quickeez isn't that far away just around the corner really. Besides if anything went wrong I could easily make it back into the safty of my home. What could go wrong? A lot more then I thought that's for sure.
I locked the door as I left. Then leaping off my steps I headed to Quickeez. It seemed to take forever. It did. I don't know why. Every step seemed to take a minute. It was 5 minutes to midnight when I arrived. I walked over to the payphones and leaned back against the rough cement. It wasn't long before I heard a familiar voice.
"Hello, Tom"
"Gabby, what are you going here?"
"Someone offered me some answers said to meet here at midnight."
"So, you two know each other?"
