"I wanna...um...deciding things is too hard, Danny!  There is a reason I always make you decide things!" I said trying to think of something, anything to do.  There was so much, how was I supposed to choose just one thing?

"Matt, you need to learn how to do things on your own!"  Danny teased.

"MATTHEW! DANIEL!"  Things around us began to fade.  We were only in the park.  Why do good things always have to come to an end?

"We are over here!" Danny yelled.  As our moms started coming towards us I noticed someone behind them.  He was running and carrying an empty bottle.  It was Danny's dad.  As I went to pull Danny's sleeve and point it out to him I realized he already saw him.  "MOM!" Danny screamed.

Mr. Caliendo ran over to Danny's mom and hit her.  I looked down at the snow where she fell and saw red.  Why couldn't Ithslandia be our reality?  Why did it have to be like this?  Danny ran to his mom's side covering her from his dad.

"DON'T TOUCH HER! MOMMY NEVER DID ANYTHING BAD! THE WORST THING SHE EVER DID WAS LOVE YOU!"  he screamed.  Danny was shaking, and not from the cold.

"Why you little son of a bitch!" One hit. "FUCKING PRICK HOW DARE YOU!" Two hits.  I couldn't watch this.  I looked over to my mom pleading for help and saw she was calling the police.  "YOU WERE A FUCKING MISTAKE NO ONE WANTED YOU! IT'S YOUR FAULT ALL THIS SHIT IS HAPPENING!"  Another hit. "YOU'RE THE REASON THIS HAPPENED TO YOUR MOTHER!"  

I grabbed the bottle he had dropped and long forgotten.  CRASH!  The sound of the glass hitting him.  He fell to the ground unconscious.  "DANNY!" I screamed.  I didn't care that I was speaking in front of everyone; all that mattered was that my best friend was okay.  

"Matt, you are more than the best friend I always wanted," Danny said breathing heavily.  The ambulance arrived just in time.  The guys in it were really nice.  They let me stay by Danny the whole time.  

Why couldn't our real life be like the one in Ithslandia?  Why couldn't we be kings?  Did we deserve this?  No, I know Danny could never deserve this.  His father was a liar too.  What could he ever do to deserve that?  

Somebody once told me that good things always happen to good people.  That person was a liar too.
NO DANNY!
