I've been playing Call of Duty for years now and have been in and out of clans the entire time. I finally got tired of having to do things like recruit, make sure I was active on the sites, forced to play to their demands instead of being able to just go out there and have fun. I guess you could say that I just wasn't a clan type of guy.
Anyhow I've been playing lone wolf and meeting people that game similar to me and we do go out and pub stomp (destroy the public lobbies) together. The funny thing was I met this girl, yes a real girl because we talk via mics and found we really have similar playing styles as well as sense of humor while playing. While we don't rage on people that suck we do like to harass the gamers that give other gamers a hard time. We like to make people rage quit that think their shit don't stink.
Another Friday night at home locked up in my room with my headset on and hitting the lobbies hard. I see an invite to join G4m3rGir1_69 in a party and when I do we immediately get into the action killing people. We're getting called campers, hackers, gay or they're hitting on GG as if she'll actually pop through the screen and fuck em...yeah right haha!
GG takes us out of the lobby to the main menu, "What're you gonna do tonight?"
"You see it," seriously, "why what are you thinking?"
"You live in Seattle by the university, right?"
"Yeah but you live in New York...so?
"I live in Kirkland," her voice sounded like she wasn't sure she wanted to continue.
"No way, I actually live in Redmond!" I was surprised she was telling me this and excited.
"You Facebook, what's your name?"
"You're messing with me, fuck you GG haha!" This can't be true or she's a sad sack of flesh like me.
"Lilly Thompson, I just graduated from Lake Washington High School and enrolled in UDub for summer classes, look me up," her voice sounded like heaven. It always sounded like heaven but even I know that voices can be deceiving and with that she logged off.
I go to my laptop, brought up Facebook, looking up Lilly Thompson and see this amazing looking, fit, sexy cheerleader posing with here cheerleading team! She has blonde hair that falls past her shoulders, what looks like B cup breast size and an amazing hourglass figure. This has got to be bullshit for sure but I'm still going to look through her pictures and read her feed. I don't see anything about gaming, Call of Duty or see any other sign that she'd be anything but one of the popular kids.
Hmmm, Add Friend...here goes nothing.
Notification, holy shit she accepted my friend request! There's a message too, "You H4z3d_n_F4t?"
This can't be GG but I reply, "yeah, G4m3rGir1_69?"
"Oh yeah baby!" No way, this is a prank, I'm being pranked, this can't be real! "Call me!"
I grab my phone as quickly as I can get to it sitting next to my bed and dial the number listed on her Facebook which is a 206 area code. The phone only rang for a minute before, "hello?"
"Uh, hi Lilly it's Allen, I...I mean Hazed?" I can barely get the words out of my mouth. I can't believe this is really happening, an angel has fallen from the heavens and came to me!
"Duh, no shit haha!" Her voice matched that of the one I'm used to hearing. "You wanna get together?"
"Uh sure," I think she can hear my disbelief in my voice.
"Come get me...you drive, right?"
"I have a real pile of a car, are you for real?" The words just spilled out as if the thought process of my brain was filtering straight to my mouth!
"I don't care idiot *giggle* just come get me," Lilly gave me her address and told me what her house looked like and I actually knew the area she lived in even if not the exact location. It's a nice neighborhood, not really rich but very well off, and I really wish I drove a nicer car now.
Hanging up I run to my closet to get anything cleaner and not so nerdy to wear, I have to make a good first impression. Fuck, the only thing I have that's clean is some button up shirts that really show how out of shape I am and a black t-shirt with some slutty looking anime chick on it. Man I need to look into some better clothes even though I doubt anything like this is going to happen again. Come on sexy you'll have to do as I grab the anime black t-shirt...please be cool!
Running out the house, I don't think my mom has ever seen me move so fast, "Allen, is everything alright?"
"Yeah mom I just got a meet a girl!" Yes, I can't believe I can actually said that and it's true. You see I'm not a stud, hunk or anything close to that because I'm a major gaming nerd that could easily lose some of the 230lbs I'm hauling around. I have shaggy dark brown hair that looks like I needed a hair cut a month ago, and look like the typical fat gaming loser.
I jump in my 89 Ford Escort GT which wouldn't be so bad had I not got it from a junk yard that I had to rebuild. I've done most of the work needed using cheap tools and a Chiltons, I even read up on body work so I could do some work there too. So now I'm rolling a car that won't die with a horrible patchwork of bondo making my car look like a grey and black Dalmatian. The interior is worn and the carpet was removed due to mold, I had to replace the seats from another car, next I'm going to work on carpet and paint next. I really wish next was now but I really hope that GG likes me more than the car.
I pull up to the address my GPS on my phone took me and see the house GG described to me. I call her but she doesn't answer, it goes directly to voicemail, now I'm feeling like an idiot and getting ready to leave. As I put the car into reverse I see the front door open up and the image of Lilly from Facebook come into view. She wore a pink zipper hoodie that hugged her fit frame, a black pleated mini skirt and thigh high stockings with red bows on the back of her toned legs and those black school girl shoes with the buckles. She looked like a present from the heavens especially for me and as she got to the passenger side door it was locked...CRAP!
I reach over and unlock the door and Lilly gets in instantly giving me a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Hey, it's so cool to see you!"
"Yeah, I can't believe all of this," my voice must have given my amazement away because she looks at me with a smile that could melt the polar ice caps.
"Let's get outta here," she says as she reaches for the seatbelt, pulling it across her torso and buckling in.
"Were?"
"Let's go to your place and play some games!"
"I only have a small 19" tv and one controller," she wants to go to my place?
"We can take turns and see who can get the highest kills, like a contest," her voice fills my ears like musical heaven.
I pull out and we start heading back to my place and I wonder why she's so cool? Let's face facts, she's a hot cheerleader that looks like she has tons of friends on Facebook and I'm just some gaming nerd! I think she could feel my tension because she reaches over and strokes my hair, which I wish I would've taken a shower, I get shivers down my spine as her hand moves through my mop. I pull over into a parking lot and pull into a stall.
"Can I ask you something?" I can't take it anymore I have to know what's really going on.
"Like why am I here with you," It's like she can read my mind, "we've been gaming together for over a year, gone through two series of Call of Duty, laughed, raged and overall gotten to know each other on a level most only wish...and you think why is she here, right?"
"Uh, yeah that's pretty much it," she spilled out everything I was thinking and I think I'm in trouble...love!
"To tell you the truth...I don't know why I'm here," her pause has gotten me worried, "probably because I'm tired of all the B.S. that comes with being popular and have really started enjoying gaming and hanging out with you in game. I guess I thought it would be cool to get together in real life, I wanted to meet you ever since you told me you lived in Redmond but I was also scared that the person you see on Facebook would make things hard but that's only a portion of what I am *giggle* hell, none of my friends like gaming they're too busy being cool and I just get tired of all the drama that comes with it unlike in gaming I can be me and act the way I want without worrying about what anyone says because they really don't have any real affect on my life."
"Wow, I can't believe it's that hard being popular," I laugh at the thought, "You should try being me and then see if you really don't like being one of the popular kids."
"You may be right but right now I wanna hang out with you and not them," her hand reaches for my cheek, pulling my gaze to hers, "I want to have fun."
"My lady your wish is my command," and with that I pull out and drive home.
I pull up thinking what my mom would think about seeing me come home with Lilly. Compared to her large house I was living in a low income trailer park off Avendale Rd. man how embarrassing this is the place I bring this beauty to. The lights are off so that means my mom is in bed but considering this is a trailer home the walls are thin and we can't be loud. I get out and Lilly follows my lead as I walk up the steps to the door.
"It's cool that I'm here, right?" She asks as her hand reaches out for mine and pulling me to face her.
"It's cool," I say as I say this I look down to my hand seeing her soft delicate hand holding mine. I turn to open the door and turn on the light but nothing, what the hell is going on?
"What's up," Lilly asks obviously seeing the confusion on my face.
"I don't know but the lights aren't working," I respond as I continue inside to the kitchen counter were mom usually leaves me notes and there was one.
Sorry but shortly after you left the power got cut off. I needed the money so I took your Playstation, tv and games to get money for the bill. I'll be at Tom's house tonight and I think you should go over to your aunts house because it's going to get cold tonight.
