Mark my words.” He said.
    “Send me the video again, I’ll take a look.” I said, trying to appease him.
    Max could get real agitated at times, especially when someone thought he was crazy.
    “No you won’t, dick. I’ll send it anyway; maybe you’ll come to your senses.” He said, appeased.
    “So, have you asked Sara out yet?” Changing subjects.
    This time it was me who became the target of ridicule.
    “No, I’m waiting until the right moment. I want to make sure she’s over Ricky, I don’t want to waste it too early.” I said.
    “Yeah, you don’t want to blow your wad too soon. Hey maybe you can take the vagina out of your butt and grow a pair. Ask her out already, don’t be a chicken shit.” He said.
    “That’s easy to say coming from you. How many girlfriends have you had? Online, long distance doesn’t count. You can’t claim to have a girlfriend in Paris who you never have seen and only talk to through Google translate.” I said, trying to turn it on him.
    “Don’t disrespect Annette. She is a beautiful creature and will be here in six months. She has promised.” He said with an air of belief.
    “I’ll believe it when I see it.” I said.
    “So, back to Sara, when are you gonna do it?” He persisted.
    “I don’t know, I heard Fred is having a big blowout tomorrow, I was thinking about asking her to go.” I said.
    “You’re going to ask her to go with you to a party that she probably would have gone to anyway? Why not just ask her to go with you to school? I mean that’s totally romantic.” He chided.
    “I know, I was thinking of taking her to dinner first, so we could have some time together. So she could get to see me outside of class and we could hangout before going to the party.” I answered.
    “Hmm. That’s actually not a bad idea. That way when she realizes you’re a total douche she can dump you at the party and claim innocence.” Max said, then mimicked what he claimed was an exact replica of how Sara talks.
    “I don’t know what happened, I just got lost in this big ole party and had to get the hell away from you.” He finished.
    “You done?” I asked.
    “I guess.” He said.
    “All I’m saying is school’s about to be out, the summer will be filled with people traveling and leaving. A girl like Sara is special and she won’t stay around here for long. You need to move on it if you want to tap that ass before she leaves.” He said.
    “Thanks for your concern. Have you prepared for the debate?” I asked trying to change subjects.
    “Yeah, no thanks to you, where were you anyway? Don’t tell me you fell down, that’s bullshit.”
    I decided to tell him, he was crazy, but he was my best friend. I didn’t keep secrets from him.
    “I don’t know it was the weirdest thing. I was walking to class through the woods, you know, taking the short cut, when I heard a noise.”
    “Wait, wait. You’re telling me you were walking in the woods then heard a noise? What did you do next genius; go investigate like a good horror movie victim?” He asked.
    “Hey, I thought someone might have been in trouble or something, and, yes, I went to investigate. I stumbled on a curled up animal. I think it was a rabbit, it scared the shit out of me and I fell down, bumped my head and woke up with these bug bit on my arm.” I said, showing him.
    He leaned over a little, examining my arm.
    “What else aren’t you telling me?” He asked.
    Damn, he knew me too well.
    “I know it sounds silly, but I dreamt that I saw a large wild wolf. It stood up and came over to me, I pet it and then it bite me, right on my arm. Then I passed out, but when I woke up there was only blood and these bug bites. Weird, huh?” I said.
    “Holy fucking shit. Are you kidding me? You have been bitten by a werewolf. Oh my god you’re a damn monster now!” He said, making fun of me.
    “Whatever, that’s what happened.” I said.
    “Well, if you need some chamomile cream for your bug bites the
