Last night I had a dream where one half of it - the other half I couldn't as vividly recall; it was, anyhow, a warped pastiche of the Thick of It - started with me being on the bus and a guy I frequently meet eyes with, from college, who had just boarded it. He withdrew a cigarette and began to light it, even though smoking is banned on public transport. A little girl by him coughed when some of the smoke drifted by her, which he found insulting. It seemed like his reaction was that of going to press the butt on her face. Some of the people on the bus were about to scream to deter him from doing so, whereas I got up, myself, and advanced towards him.
"Don't do anything to her! If you're gonna do anything to anyone, do it to me!"
I was not completely sure why I said the last part, as then, it suddenly caused a fight to ensue between us.
We grappled about the bus, hitting the poles and the seats, making a generally large ruckus. The people who were about to scream earlier did scream now. The doors had opened when we came by it and we threw ourselves out of the bus and continued fighting on the pavement. I managed to hurt him as much as to keep him occupied momentarily, and so I ran. Ran as fast as I could. Down alleyways, into homes, buildings; doing my absolute best to avoid him. Little did I know, that when he had recovered, he procured a bike and was racing everywhere to find me.
Somewhere in the frenzy of my search for refuge, I had found myself in an enclosed space. All the doors and exits were barred, thus I couldn't escape. BAM! One of the doors had exploded; he stood there on his bike. I sprinted towards him, with the intention of leaping in the air and formulating a drop-kick on him. Incidentially, when he saw me coming, he rode, unerring, towards me. A clash was going to occur. So what I did, I made a kind of rugby-like dodge which he did not anticipate, hence, he crashed into one of the walls. I hoped that this would have rendered him finished, to just cease this arduous shit. But no, he got up - the man's so fucking resilient - all raring to beat the crap out of me.
We fought some more; it felt endless. Evading one punch, another grapple and another kick, reverse and repeat. Evading another punch, another grapple and another kick, reverse and repeat. Finally, one roundhouse by me landed beautifully at his chest and he flew towards one of the walls. I was too puked out to remain standing and so I collapsed onto the floor. When I had regained consciousness, I saw his face, a malevolent grin plastered across his stupid face, right in front of mine. I didn't bothered to get up or do anything, just merely whispered, "Can we end this all? Can we just be friends now?". He actually, actually assented; I was so astonished. Anyway, he helped me up and from the destroyed entrance that I completely forgot to heed, before tackling him again, retrieved another bicycle for me. Then, we both rode outside for a while together, talking about stuff. It became apparent that his actions on the bus were as a result of a very insecure mind, which was made insecure by some competition involving a group of friends that he normally hangs around with, at college. These people collectively have a very pseudo-cool*, rock-hard facade and I really do think if I had been to the same secondary school as them, they would have bullied me so badly.
Da End.
*I say "pseudo-cool" as most cultured people wouldn't accept them as cool, but the majority of people at college probably would.
