1 To be expected....

Andrew Reiss is a 21 year old 5 foot, eight inches tall Caucasian male. He dropped out of high school his fourth year not because he was a bad student... but due to crippling depression. The bullying got so bad that it was actually ruining his school life. Right after he left school His parents disowned him and gave him some money to get his life in order. He's been working at a McDowells fast food restaurant for the past 3 years and living in a shared apartment with his girlfriend Melissa for the past 2. It was a relationship born out of convenience but they really did like each other.

On a day like any other his shift ended at 8:30 pm and he rushed home. When he got there Melissa was already dressed up and ready to go. They finally had some free time in their schedules and decided to spend it together on a date. Andrew was extremely excited and in his absentminded bliss didn't pay attention as he got out of the shower. His foot stepped on a shampoo bottle and he slipped falling head first into the toilet. Needless to say his skull got cracked and his head slipped into the toilet bowl at a weird angle. Melissa had just stepped out to get the car from the garage situated 2 minutes away so he was alone... alone and currently drowning in piss. ( poor fucker forgot to flush ).

He was unable to move but not unconscious. He used what he thought would be his last few minutes of life and let all the grief in his heart out. All the mistakes of his past and hopes or what could have been. He used every curse he could but they weren't directed at a god or the universe... but himself. It wasn't all bad though, had he not dropped out he would have never met Melissa. He had no idea why she started dating him after they had become roommates.. she was a graduate attending an engineering school while working part time at a tech store while He was a loser working for minimum wage at a run down burger joint no one cares about. Yeah he had doubts that she was only with him but in the end it didn't matter.. he was happy and that was more than he could ever ask for. After a while in the dark he feels a ridiculously painful headache.

Ahh... ah...did the pain just now register?

It's still pitch black and he can't really feel things right but he's more confused than angry or sad right now.

Didn't I just hit my head...and drown?

So why's my face numb and body aching ?

He quickly collects his thought and opens his eyes again. He uses his hurting arms to try and lift his body up as fast as he can but the first thing he sees when he looks up is a huge foot smashing him straight in his face. He gets knocked unconscious for real this time.

He has no idea where he is or what's going on. But as he is recovering in what appears to be an infirmary only one thought prevails in his mind.

Oh she's gunna kill me when she gets back.

And tears start rolling down his face.
