And so now even when I tell the story, it's like, what the fuck? So I get in his car, he's driving a white Honda civic. And, uh, I remember the AC being on like full blast.

And this was the first time I think I'd ever gotten to a car that had AC. So I was like, damn, this is fucking nice. And because it was like, like, these are the things that you appreciate as a kid, you know? And so there's trash all over his fucking car. But I didn't give a fuck because I was like, whatever, bro. Like, I'm a kid. You don't give a fuck, you know?

So we go to this chicken place in my hometown before we hit the road to go to Bluffton, Ohio, which is about 30 minutes away. Um, he gets me a fricking meal, you know, sides, large drink.

You walk in, it's got low ceiling, acoustical ceiling tiles, and look off to the right, there's an entertainment center and like two or three TVs, couch, chair, back right corner's got two desktop computers. The middle of the room has a big glass table with a bunch of like Dungeons and Dragons shit all over it. We played that a lot.

When we were over there, back right corner is like the kitchen and the bathroom. And then the back left corner, there's this black curtain that's hanging from the ceiling and it's cornering off. That's where his bed was. And my initial thoughts were, one, the apartment was cold because the AC was on and it was just full blast. Big ass dude. He ran hot.

two was there was multiple TVs and multiple game systems, which meant you didn't have to take turns and you could play all night long. And so we sit down, we start playing video games, you know, uh, dinnertime runs around. He orders a bunch of pizza, get a bunch of pop energy drinks. And we're, and I, I mean, I didn't go to sleep like when I was at his house. Um, especially that first weekend.

I mean, I played video games for 36 straight fucking hours, like just having the time of my life, you know? And, uh, I remember like Jacob going back and sleeping in his bed with him. And I didn't think anything of it because as a boy, you're, you have sleepovers and you, you sleep with your friends and it's not a big deal, you know? And that's what I attributed it to.
