Mom was glad to hear that I had actually made a friend. I didn't tell her that Jimmy wanted me to meet him at the plant at midnight. There was no chance she would let me go. I would have to sneak out like I had done in the past. That wasn't a big deal. I had gotten pretty good at sneaking out.

For a few hours I helped Mom set up things in the living room. We finally got our couch and television moved in. After dinner I went up to my room to read my Johnny the homicidal manic comic books. Mom didn't like the idea of me reading such violence but I found the magazines funny as hell. They were meant to be funny but Mom couldn't understand that.

Mom came in at nine thirty to tell me goodnight and laid down just like I was going to bed. She would never expect that I was going to sneak out at midnight. I thought I had my whole evening under control. I was thinking about Jimmy. I was wondering if he really was going to let me hang out with him after I did what he needed me to do. I didn't plan on falling asleep but when I felt myself being jerk forward I realized I had fallen asleep. I didn't understand why I fell asleep. I wasn't even tired.

I was standing in the middle of a street. All of the houses were dark and I seemed the be the only there. At least that's what I thought at first. Jimmy was standing at the other end of the street and he looked scared. When he saw me his face lit up and he ran down the street to me.

"Thank god," he said smiling. "This dream was getting pretty creppy. Nice to see someone I know it."

Huh? I was in his dream? Or was I dreaming this? This is a bit confusing. But screw it. It's just a dream anyway. What does it matter?

"Yeah," I said and nodded. "Where are we supposed to be?"

"I think it's Elm street," Jimmy explained pointing to a sign that read 'elm street'. "I've always had these strange nightmares about being alone. Elm street is creppy at night. I guess that's why it's nighttime."

"Jimmy!" a male voice was coming through into the dream. "Wake up man!"

"That's Mark," Jimmy said and started to fade. "I hope to have you make more of my dreams interesting."

As soon as Jimmy was gone I jumped awake. I let out a gasp as my room came into view.

"What the fuck?" I said out loud running a hand through my blonde hair. "That was very strange."

I glanced at the alarm clock on my bedside table saw that it was nearly eleven thirty. Remembering that I had to met Jimmy I climbed out of bed and slipped out the window.
