   Once again I sat under the tree, and once again the weather was perfect. I sat there looking at my shoes thinking about why I think so much. Mabey it would be better if I didn't think s much, if I could just shut my brain off. Then I wouldn't feel emotions or anything...

   I sat there for a long time, just not thinking about... anything. I felt something tickeling my hand. Slowly I looked down to discover a dragonfly sitting on my hand. Quickly I snaped back to reality. It couldn't be the same dragonfly...could it? Suddenly I felt a great hatred towords it. Not only because it brang me back to the wolrd which I was so desperatly trying not to think about, but because it has everything! The perfect life, nothing to worry about ever!

   I glared at it, imagining it engulfed in flame. It then spread its wings out and fluttered up by my face. It just hovered there facing me, as though it was glaring back!? After what seemed to be 2 or 3 minutes it flew closer to my face and landed on my nose. I couldn't help but start laughing, how stupid I was to be angry at something that has done nothing to me. The dragonfly then took off as though it had finished its job for the day.

   When I could no longer see it, I stood up walked over to my bike and headed home...

   I awoke the next morning to my mom pulling me out of my bed.

   "We're going school shopping today, common!" my mom said waving her hand in my face.

   "Ahh can't we do this later I only have so many days left to sleep in! Why so early!?"

   "Its already noon come on lets go!"

   I sat up and looked around, it was pitch black outside! Its not noon, more like 4am! I looked over to my right expecting to see my mom but she wasn't there. Hmm must have been a dream. I lay back down but hear something move in thecorner of my room. I fly out of bed and flip the light on.

   "Mom?"

   I look over at her laying on my floor. I grab her arm to see if she's ok. She jumps and sits up.

   "I'm ok!" she yells. She looked like she just got woken up from a deep sleep.

   "Sleep walking again mom?"

   "Uhh I geuss so..."

   "You only sleep walk when your stressed, so whats wrong?"

   "Oh just stressed about school shopping and getting everthing done that needs to be done."

   There was something more than that though I could tell. I could probably guess what else was bothering her though. Ever since Jarret's mom threatened to commit suicide my mom has been on edge. I suppose its hard for her to see one of her best highschool buddies like this.

   My mom got up off the floor and walked to the doorway.

   "Night" she said.

   "Night"

   I crawled back into bed, and tryed to fall asleep but I had too much on my mind. Why did his mom try to commit suicide? Was she stressed about Jarret being ill? It has to be more than that because that was over a two months ago. Mabey it was the medical bill. That must have been pretty expensive, but why would you want to leave you son like that?

The reason the stories are short is because my story ideas come in short bursts. Plus when I make one story the next one comes quick and within the same week. So they come in pairs. And if you put to of these short stories together it makes one long one.

After this story, you can expect the next one to come fast then the next one slow and the next one fast...=)
