Disclaimer: All right, this story is not real. NOT REAL! Not to be read by anyone under the age of 18/21 yadda yadda yadda! I'd love to hear some feedback as per usual. Please feel free to leave me a comment in the COMMENT Box at the end of the page. You see those big empty stars too? Maybe bump those up to five full ones? We wouldn't want them to be empty now would we? All alone like that? You're not a monster are you?
Also, please don't post this on any other site without my explicit permission. I've had to bring the hammer down on two thieves right as of writing and don't want to bring it down again.

The cold wind bit at my neck as I tugged at the bottom of my jacket and pulled it tight against me keeping the cold air of New York away from me. In front of me, I could hear people arguing about something trivial. Now, at this point I wish I could say that I was in line for tickets, tickets for a rock show... A movie... Hell, I'd even take a musical at this point but no, I was in line at my local video game store. The latest video game, 'Thief Outcast four' was on its way out and lots of people were in line for it.
I however, was not in line for the stealth shooter. No, I was in line for the party game 'Saxophone hero' and all of its attachments. The lights inside the store went on and I could see various sales assistants walking in to prepare the store for the midnight launch. Looking at my cell phone's screen, I saw that it was nearly eleven o'clock at night so there was still plenty of time for us to get nice and chilly in the cold winter. Dipping into my jacket pocket, I fished out the small foil packet of animal crackers and tugged at each side of the packet to split it open and let me get inside to the salty snacks.
Throwing one into the back of my mouth, I heard a giggle from behind me and a soft poke in my ribs. Twisting at the hip, I turned to find a young woman clad in a small denim skirt showing off her legs that were encased in sheer, black stockings leading down to a neat pair of black cowgirl boots. She had on a black jacket that hid a rock and roll band t-shirt underneath it, to top off the look she had on a pair of large sunglasses that seemed somewhat out of place near the dead of the night. Her long black hair was loose around her shoulders topping off a very beautiful woman.
She had her head tilted towards the packet of snacks and was stifling a giggle when looking at the packet of snacks.
"You planned ahead huh?" She smiled, leaning forward to look at the packet. I smiled as she looked at them but was somewhat put off by the guy behind her who had cheetos staining his fingers and was gawping at this woman's ass. She stood up and looked over her shoulder at him, she turned back to face me, frowned slightly and tugged at the back of her skirt.
"First time standing outside for a midnight launch huh?" I ask, changing the topic quickly as she smiled over at me.
"How can you tell?"
"Eh. You can always spot the newbies. You want some?" I ask, tilting the foil packet towards her so she could fish out one of the small snacks.
"Yeah, I really can't wait for this new game. I must have played the third one at least a hundred times! What's your favourite class?"
Ah. It was going so well.
"Huh. Yeah, I'm kind of here for a different game."
"Oh? Which one?"
"Sax hero." I admitted, better than thinking up something on the spot. Just in case she was familiar with the other game I was thinking on. She smiled over at me and thought on her response before playfully pilfering another snack.
"And you just couldn't wait?" She asked, sucking her right index finger clean.
"Actually I am looking forward to it. I really loved all the other 'Hero' games and they're great party games." I shot her a look with a big smile on my face. "Don't judge!"
The girl smiled and extended her right arm, not for more food but for me to shake it.
"Mila."
