The Basement

And in this world without Stephen, everything was new and something to discover. Everything was something I hadn’t learned yet. And this amazing adventure started in the old, deserted basement of the school with drugs. And James, of course.

“So can I ask you something?â€? I asked him while he sucked some green into his nose, coughing a little bit. “Is your name really James?â€?

He smiled and his ring glittered in the dim light. “Jameson.â€?

“Wow that seems totally unlike you.â€?

“Really? So, how exactly do you know what I’m like?â€?

He was acting like a jerk, but I guess I really don’t know him. I will soon though.

“I was trying to find out but you’re just snorting away.â€? I stated.

“Fine then.â€? he turned his beautiful eyes on me. “You’ve got my attention. Ask me anything you want. But first, you want some?â€? He passed the bowl to me and I took it. For all he knows I could be a girl who smokes. Hell, I could be anyone with him. So as part of my new life, I sucked some up, coughed and began to ask him questions.
