Chapter 5- Ecstasy

We walked about a zillion miles until we reached a sign that said "Dead End". It obviously wasn't a dead end, you'd have to be plain fucked to not notice that the path continued on past the sign. I guess if it was a little bit darker in here, but whatever. We walked past the sign. Pretty soon the light was distant and we traveled into the darkness.

"It's really dark".

"Very observant, Cindy. A+ for you".

"Oh shut up. Do you have a flashlight or a lighter"?

"Now would I carry around a lighter with me? You're the smoker hun.", he said hinting towards a "you honestly shouldn't smoke, but if you're gunna, carry a lighter you whore" kinda thing.

"Well…ugh, what about a flashlight".

"Of course I do. It's sitting in my back pocket".

"You know what. At least I'm fucking coming up with something. You're not thinking of a damn thing so shut the fuck up Neutron". Maybe it's not so surprising he doesn't dig me. Ehh, well it IS his fault…I decided.

"Fine, how about we use this", he pulls out some light gadget out of his pocket.

"And you don't carry flash lights".

He glares. "It's new. "Insta-light 4000"." He turned it on and it was instantly bright, like the sun was up.

"It's the first one, but yet you enjoy giving it the number 4000."

"Yeah, well most inventions don't have single digit numbers…" He starts going into a depth description of the numbers inventors use for their inventions.

"As much as this conversation is being to heat up, I must ask you to stop before I stab myself with this stalactite.", I said naming the first object I saw. I guess we're near a cave or some shit, but I don't know, it definitely would not be strange if there was just a stalactite lying on the ground considering the events that occurred tonight. Maybe they're popular here. Maybe…

"Maybe you should", he said interrupting my train of thought.

"Maybe I will".

"Go crazy".

My lips pierced. "Yeah, what if I did Jim"?

"No one's stopping you".

I just ignored him to stop the tears forming in my eyes. He wouldn't care if I killed myself. He wouldn't care if someone killed me. Because he doesn't care. But, why would he? The thoughts occurring in my mind started to make me tear. I attempted to hold it in, but when the tears started rolling down my cheeks, I merely looked the other way.

"What's that"?

"Huh"?

"Over there", he said pointing to an empty lot.

I turned my head, but still didn't see it. "Jimmy, I don't see anything".

"How can you not see it! There's a huge ass tower over there. Like a castle or something".

"And you said I was drugged".

"You really don't see it", he asked me.

"No. All I see is a big field".

"But you believe me…right?"

"I honestly don't know. I mean, you're telling me you see a fucking castle and all I'm seeing is fucking farmland. Either you're high or we're in the flippin' twilight zone."

"But…it's right there", he said, disappointed I didn't see it.

"Why don't we just walk over there and check it out. I mean, maybe you're still feeling washed out after the luvely ecstasy trip you had".

"First off, I feel fine. And, how do you know it was X?"

"I don't, I'm just guessing. Let's just go anyway. Please." He made the last word go on until I just said yes. God he gets so annoying. I have one fucked mind, man.

"Take me to your fantasy world".

"It's REAL".

We voyaged onto Jimmy's fairytale world. It felt like we were walking forever and finally we stopped.

"Are we there yet?"

"Can't you tell? We're in front of the door. Help me lower it".

"How can I help you lower it! I CAN"T SEE IT". He wasn't getting it. I didn't see jack shit. All I saw was a field.

"Well I'll start turning it so you can get a feel for where it is". He started turning the air.

"HOLY FUCK", I screamed as I heard something squeak loudly.

"That was the gate".

"Oh god…Well is the gate…Whoa". I was as speechless as I was in awe. "You-you-you weren't lying".

"You see it"? A huge grin spread across his face.

"I see inside".

"Yay! I wonder why you can't see the outside".

"I have no idea. Oh well, come on. Libby and Sheen have to be here".

"Yeah, but where…?"

"Well, we'll just search…everywhere".

"Cindy, this is a big castle".

"Well, I don't know. Let's try that door right there".

"The red one?"

"No…the blue door. There is no red one".

"Didn't you point right there"?

"Yes, right there. At the blue door".

"But that doors…"

"I don't give two fucks what color it is", I said cutting him off. "Let's just open the damn door".

He shook his head. "Profanity will get you nowhere".

"FFFFUUCKKKK YYOOOUUU". I went to open the door. Jimmy went to open the wall.

"What are you doing", I said baffled.

"Ummm, opening the door. What are you doing?

"What door are you opening? I'm opening the door. And it's here." I pointed. "I'm turning the knob which is here", I pointed once more.

"How are you doing that"?

"Opening the door?" Ok, I know I'm blonde, yeah, that question got the best of me.

"Putting your hand through the wall."

"What the fuck are you on Neutron". But then I realized his hand was entering the wall. "Whoa. Your hand is the one going through the wall".

"What? No it's not. I'm just opening the door".

"I am too. How fucked is this place. Damn". I finished opening my door. "Let's go in".

"In where…oh. See, now I see it. What's with that?"

"Hah. Yeah, I don't know, but let's find us some hotties".

"Meaning"?

"Libby and Sheen…", I said with a "like duh much?" expression on my face.

"Ok. I thought so. But yeah, whatever."

We entered the room and gasped.
