responded playfully.
    We came to a stop next to Abigail, who seemed to be determined to prove her theory on how Wolverine could beat Batman. Yup, my brother has got his hooks in her deep.
    “ Batman is not God Aiden, just deal with it!” She yelled.
    Aiden collapsed back on the blanket. “You’re just saying that because you think Hugh Jackman is hot! That’s not a valid argument point.”
    “ Well he is hot. And Wolverine would so totally shank Batman with his three fingernail thingies!”
    Ethan face palmed himself. “They’re not fingernail thingies, Abigail, they’re adamantium claws.”
    “ Aaand we’re here.” I said sarcastically to Ethan. “Welcome to my world.”
    “ Your world is a lot better than you think.” Ethan said. “Oh and for the record, Batman would find a way to neutralize Wolverines healing factor. It’s pretty much game over after that point. Batman fought Captain America hand to hand and it ended in a stand still. Wolverine doesn’t have a chance.”
    Aiden almost had a cardiac arrest. “See! Even the new dude knows what’s up!”
    “ So, I’ll see you there tonight?” I had to cut in.
    “ Definitely.” Ethan said. He turned towards my brother and best friend. “It was very...interesting meeting you both.”
    “ Take it easy bro.” Aiden said.
    “ Nice to meet you to Ethan.” Abigail unexpectedly snapped another picture of him again. “G’s up Ho’s down.”
    “ Um...okay?” He looked at me with those eyes, then gave me a quick nod. “Madison.”
    I waved as he ran off down the beach. He was fast, because it only took a sec before I couldn’t see him anymore. I just stood there, ignoring my brother and his girlfriend as they continued their argument. This time if Mega-Man could beat Link from Zelda in a fistfight.
    I just continued to smile to myself. My only thoughts were of Ethan and the fact that I was going to see him again tonight.
    I let Abigail drive home, content to just lay in the back seat and reflect. Today’s little unexpected excursion to the beach went much better than I had planned. At best, I figured I’d just catch some rays. Look at some cute boys surfing and get mildly intoxicated off of Margaritas.
    At worst, it would have rained and we would have had to call it a day a lot sooner than we did. Never did I expect to meet someone who had enraptured all of my senses the way Ethan Blackwood did. Ever since we moved to Palm Coast last year, I hadn’t really found anyone that I was even remotely interested in.
    It wasn’t because no one was interested in me. That’s far from the case; rather it was the sad fact that I wasn’t interested in any of them. Not a single one had captured my attention the way I thought my attention should be captured. I never connected with any of them like the way Aiden and Abigail connected. They were in synch almost all the time. Finishing each other sentences, knowing when the other one was about to call seconds before they actually did.
    I still find that a little creepy, but hey, to each his own.
    Ethan Blackwood.
    I even liked the way his name sounded in my mind, yet knowing my luck he’ll probably end up being like, the biggest douche ever. Either that or a serial killer. Well, he is coming to The Dave’s tonight, so one way or another I was gonna find out.
    When we got home, I just went straight to my room. Aiden was making Abigail play test his Little Big Planet level he created again. She pleaded with me with sympathetic eyes to save her, to intervene, but I just shook my head. I had other plans on my mind.
    I wanted to sleep, to try and get a little rest before the nights outing, but I decided against it. I knew as soon as I closed my eyes I would have that crazy dream again. The dream I could barely remember other than just a few insane moments. I was planning to go to the library sometime, get some books on deciphering dreams, but I never did.
    I always plan on doing a lot of things that I never do.
    I
