A Terrible Story...

I'm making it a cross of reality and disillusion. I have finals tomorrow that I didn't really study for. I don't have the attention span to study anymore. I've been playing neopets and was highly disappointed when The Walking Dead failed to come on. Apparently the season ended. At least I still have Supernatural but even that will end soon. I had a strange dream last night. It had trains in it and I can't really explain it. It's not that I don't remember it it's just hard to explain because my dreams are not like reality. No logic at all. Time moves differently. Anyways the most focused part was this train/suitcase that turned into a radio. The radio needed batteries so I plugged it up. The radio had a man trapped inside because it'd respond to my voice and often insulted me which I found humorous. Talking radios in all. I mean radios usually do talk but they never show recognition of the people around them. I had to wonder how this man could see out of the radio. How his vision worked. I had a feeling his name was Nick and he was a witty bastard.

Cheers
It was starting to get late and the last of the
trick or treaters had trickled down to nothing.
I kept wiping my eyes trying to focus. Papers
were cast everywhere across my dinning room
table. I had to understand this before Monday.
This idiotic math. To the average person all the
papers looked like random nonsense. Such is the
nature of math. Never to be used again after I
finished the class. Where did this number come
from? I stared intently at the answer hoping it
make sense eventually. Why is math so illogical?
Was there no method to this madness? I had
another day to take this all in. I'm doomed. The
doorbell chimed its familiar hum. I sighed in
relief laying down my pen. I could use a break.
I got up swiftly opening the door to see a tall
man in his thirties with no shirt wearing giant
red wings.
"Aren't you a little old to be trick or
treating?"
He chuckled, "Ah well I'm not here for
your candy. It seems my car was stolen while I
was at this Halloween party down the street. I
was wondering if I could borrow your phone?"
"Down the street?" I stuck my head out
the door looking, "Well...why didn't you just
use their phone."
"The music there is too loud for me to
call anyone," he replied.
Hmm, I didn't live with anyone so if it
turned out this guy was a weirdo...I'd be on my
own. It was late and chilly outside. Saying no
would be rude. "Sure," I finally said opening
the door wider for him to step in. I closed the
door behind him and walked back over to my math
problems. "The phone is beside the TV. Help
yourself," I said picking up my pen to chew on
the end and try and figure out where the hell
that number came from.
I heard him pick up the phone and heard
the beeps of numbers being pressed. The phone
rung a few times and then someone answered. He
started talking in some language I didn't
understand. It sounded like gibberish to me. I
finally just closed my math book accepting I was
never going to understand it...at least not
tonight. I got up and walked into the living
room where he stood talking to his friend on the
phone. I sat down on the couch. House of Wax was
playing on TV. I always liked older horror
movies. Todays horror movies lacked something
older ones had but I didn't quite know what it
was. The man hung up the phone still standing in
the same spot. "So, where are you from?" I
asked.
"Hell."
That made me snicker a little. Clever reply
because he was dressed as a demon. "Ah, any
particular part or just Hell?"
"The 9th layer. You don't mind if I sit
down? It's going to be awhile before my friend
can pick me up."
He was asking because my couch was
small. Only big enough to fit two. I never
actually get company. "Umm, sure." I said
awkwardly. The guy looked like a supermodel from
hell. He obviously cared about his complexion
because from his abs it looked like he worked
out all the time. His hair was kind of an odd
color but I just assumed it was from spray
paint. It was red with slight yellow highlights.
He had contacts in that made his whole eyes look
black. His wings...looked so real. "Your wings
look so real. They even have veins. It's the
most sinister thing I've seen all night."
He grinned devishly, "Thanks. My name is
Dezmon. I'm sorry to intrude like this."
I gave a weak smile. I was tired. "Nah,
it's okay. I probably would have driven myself
mad with that Algebra if you didn't show up. I'm
Ekkert."
"Nice place ya got here Ekkert. A nice
girl like you must have a boyfriend lurking
around somewhere, eh?" he dug.
I might have blushed if I wasn't so damn
paranoid. He was digging for information so he
could find out if he could flirt. Innocent
notion I reassured myself. I'm
way too young for
him even though I admit he was very nice
looking. "Yeah, his asleep right now. Doesn't
like Halloween all that much," I lied. I wasn't
interested in him. Well I wasn't interested in
what he would bring with him.
He raised an eyebrow slightly, "Who
doesn't like Halloween. Talk about a humbug."
"Not exactly the right use for the word
but eh. Doesn't matter. Would you like a drink?"
I said standing up. I was going to get me
something whether he said yes or no.
"If it wouldn't be trouble to you." he
replied.
"What do you want to drink?"
"Whatever your drinking," he replied.
"Ah, well I hope you like Jack Daniels,"
I replied walking to the kitchen grabbing my
scotch glasses from the cabinet. It had been a
what seemed to me a long stressful night.I put
two ice cubes in each glass and poured the
heavenly liquid into them at just the right
height. It was art if I had ever seen it. I
scooped up the glass retreating back to the
living room. Dezmon still sat in the same place.
He looked up at me and smiled faintly. "Do you
drink much?" he asked me.
"Only when demons stop by," I replied
handing him the glass.
"Cheers?" he questioned holding his
glass up.
"Cheers," I replied clinking glass even
though I had no idea why we were cheering. I
downed the glass in what seem like one gulp and
sat it down on the glass table beside me.
