The Morning Of
As Billy arose from his bed, he could not remember the dream or his brother coming in in the middle of the night. Billy's mind was empty, just like his stomach. Even in the pitch black Billy could see his alarm clocks fire bright red numbers shining the numbers 4:30. Billy turns the light on in order to see in his room. He looks at the mess that is what Billy calls a room. There are clothes all over the floor, the T.V. has soda and beer cans on the top of it. The most disturbing thing of all is a small 8oz mug that has been sitting on the T.V. stand for at least two years. I really should clean that damn mug up. Billy thought to himself. Then deciding that he wasn't going to clean up the mug on his T.V. stand Billy heads to the shower. After a long shower, Billy looks at the time and thinks ohh shit it’s my big day!! Today's Friday that means that, it’s the championships to night. I need to get ready.
When Billy is done getting dressed, he goes into the kitchen to fry up some eggs. When Billy gets to the kitchen, he smells eggs being cooked. He sees Michael cooking eggs and making toast. Damn that's the last of the eggs. Billy thought. "Hey Mr. MVP come here and eat your eggs and toast. Oh and drink your milk too."
"Thanks Michael this is very nice if you to do this."
"Hey man just remember me when you are running in touchdowns in the NFL."
"Now, now I'm not that good."
"Not if you keep talking like that. You have something Billy you know, I never had that...that drive that you do. You’re strong like an ox and quick like a cheetah. Your the best Tailback that cherrysville high has ever seen."
"Okay I know I'm good, but NFL? Let’s get real. Not a single college has come to the house or sent a letter or anything. I'm not good enough."
"Hey, hey don't worry about that stuff I bet they are waiting to see how you do under pressure. I mean you are about to start in the biggest game of your life... to date."
"I hope so. All right, I finished my feast, thanks bro. I'ma head out. See you at the game. We got home field so it's at our high school. Be there at 7:00 sharp." Billy gets up and starts to walk to the front door.
"You got it bro. Oh hey bro."
Billy turns around and sees the giant green gargoyle starring at him with blood overflowing out of his mouth. The gargoyle starts to charge him. Billy steps back lifts up his arms and tries to brace himself for the blow that is about to destroy him. "Love you"
Billy lowers his arms the gargoyle is gone and its just Billy and his brother in the room. Billy looks at his brother and says "Love you to brother." Billy opens the front door walks out and shuts the door. Billy starts walking to his car and looks to the sky. Rain. greeeaaaatttt. Billy thought as he opens his car door and gets in. Billy turns the key and drives to school.
