The local pool hall in a small saskatchewan town
I stepped outside, for no reason at all other than to be outside. Feeling the night wrap around me in its inky entirety. The air is different in a small town, clearer, colder, sharper somehow. The stars are brighter, and the sky goes on forever. An endless black dotted in silver studded relief. I turned my head as I heard footsteps from around the corner. I could see shadows in the yellow of the of the streetlights glow. I turned and walked back inside. I made my way into the back of the poolhall, past the tables, and through the smoke. The arcade is in the back and I put my quarter into my favorite game. As I played my favorite game I could feel people come stand behind me, and watching me play. I turned and it was my friend Re and someone else. Someone that knocked the breath from my lungs. I could feel my knees shake, and all thought left me then. Re introduced me to this guy, my new god. His name music....his name Nathaniel. I knew then at that second HE would be mine. I knew then I loved him. HE, Nathaniel started to play the game next to me. I couldn't concentrate. I lost immediately. Nathaniel then invited me to play the game with him. I could't speak, so I just started to play. I was good at this one too, better than him. HE couldn't believe a girl could kick his ass at an arcade game. His swearing ammused me for some reason....though all his attemps at conversation were failing as I couldn't get a word out. All I could do was play. Soon HE ran outta quarters and turned to leave. I could feel my heart sinking, I would never see him again. That was my only thought. As Nathaniel and Re were leaving, HE turned back to look at me. That was when I heard him say 'See you tomorrow at school'. I damn near died right there in the poolhall hanging on to my favorite game. I watched him walk out the door, but I knew that he was only walking into my life
