Fantasy Lies Beyond the Reach of Time

I was in a panic, where had Blaire gone?

That stupid woman Leana had messed me up, again. When she left me, I was a wreck for almost a year. She hadn't even broke up with me, she just left me a note saying she wasn't coming back.

And now she was trying to mess it up with Blaire, who I loved.

Yeah I admit it, I love her.

That's my problem, I love people to quickly. Friends or girlfriends, that's why I get so upset easily.

That's why I stopped talking to Blaire in the first place.

I was so relived when I got a text from her saying she was at Matt's, playing Call of Duty.

God, he had managed to brainwash her too.

I jumped in my car and quickly drove over, just staying under the speed limit. Maybe going over once or twice, but no one saw.

I just walked into Matt's house, like I usually did. Normally to awful consequences. Once he thought I was a burglar and whacked me with a baseball bat. He then said it was my own fault as it was three in the morning as I lay in hospital with a cracked skull.

“Honey I'm home!” I called out in a girly voice.

“We're in here Jim!” Matt called back, ignoring my greeting.

When I walked in, they were both furiously jabbing buttons, Blaire was pushing Matt viscously ever so often. I laughed as she lent into him, pushing with all her might, Matt barely moved.

To help Blaire win, I licked Matt's ear. He freaked out, screaming and furiously rubbing it with his shirt.

Blaire managed to shoot him a couple of times, but he quickly even out the score.

I settled behind Blaire then pulled her onto my lap. She squeaked in surprise but managed to avoid a shot from Matt.

I kissed her softly on the back of the neck, she squirmed and, to my surprise, whispered “Jimmy your putting me off, stop it”

“Hey you talked!” I exclaimed in surprise, she used to talk a little around me but never, ever in front of anyone else.

She nodded and smiled.

“She's been talking a lot Jim, especially about you” Matt piped up, winking at Blaire who blushed furiously. “I hear your in love Jimmy” he added with a devious smirk.

“Yeah I am” I admitted, kissing Blaire's cheek.

“I love you too Jimmy” Blaire said with a small smile.

“Awww you two are so cute” Matt gushed, like a girl.

I threw a handful of popcorn at him, that he had conveniently left near me. It was his own fault.
