*This story is from the perspective of Jack, a regular 26-year-old male who has his world turned upside down after a trip to the local supermarket. This is my first ever story, and one that I will continue in other chapters after I have received some feedback from the wonderful readers! I have been reader for a few months now and after reading a few amazing stories recently and have felt inspired to try my luck at writing something myself. Thanks, and enjoy. *
I couldn't believe my luck; my car had just been in the garage with a slow puncture and now a flashing red light on my dashboard.
"Just my fucking luck" I thought.
It had been in and out the garage for the past few months and this time was one too many, I was finally going to sell my first car in the hope of something new. The car was nothing special, 2008 plate Vauxhall Corsa, but it had been my first car and something that I had relied on in the most difficult parts of my life, from visiting my mother during her battle with cancer to making it on time to the 12-hour warehouse shifts to help foot the bills -- this Corsa represented memories. Plus, my ex-girlfriend used to enjoy sucking my dick while I drove, something I can always smirk about when I bump into her in town.
But today was not one of those glorious days, today I had finished work and it was time to go to the local supermarket and do the shopping for the week. I ignored the flashing red temperature light on my dashboard and proceeded to make my way towards the supermarket. As I made my way towards to the super-market, I checked my shopping list.
-Bananas
-Pasta
-Milk
-Cheese
-Bread
After spending 10 minutes wandering around gathering my items I arrived at the till and checked my shopping.
'All there' I thought.
It wasn't much but it was enough to make a basic pasta dish for the coming weeks meals, plus, it left me with enough money to get myself a lucky dip on the lottery and this weeks had managed to hit a 230 million pound jackpot.
'I'd give my left arm to win that money and I would do so much cool shit' I thought.
"HELLO SIR?" said the busy cashier.
"Yes, sorry miles away -- all these and 1 lucky dip please" I replied.
After paying the small Β£10.45 for my goods, I left the store and loaded my shopping into my cars' passenger seat. On the way home I was filled with daydreams of what a man could do with such a huge jackpot win... I could move to America, surf on weekends and live in a beach-house during the week, I could host the best parties and be surrounded by the hottest women. There was so much life had to offer, so much of it seemingly unattainable to a regular guy like me.
My vision turned into myself driving a Lamborghini to a luxury bar and picking up a more mature single woman, or not single... what the fuck did it matter if I had over 200 million?! I would bring all my friends to live in paradise with me and nobody would be able to say anything. I loved my close friends, they had been the human equivalent of a wolf pack since the starting day of high school in 2004, now 26, half of them had their own children and the other half worked all hours under the sun saving for a mortgage. I was the only one of my friends who had decided to go to college and university, studying a bachelor's in science, animal biology.
The lottery win would set them all up for life, but it would never happen, this must be the 200th week of trying and the most I had won was Β£20.
After pulling into the driveway I unloaded the car and took myself up into my bedroom, leaving my mother and younger brother downstairs watching the new star-wars movie. A quick shower and I was ready for bed, for such a long day I was surprised that I had even made it to the shop for the groceries but knew it would save me a job in the morning which surprisingly sent me to sleep a lot easier than normal.
'I'm getting old' I thought, drifting off to sleep.
The next morning, I woke up and immediately noticed my cock, hard as it always was in the morning. Almost like my cock woke up and demanded to be swallowed in a lovely girl's mouth, but unfortunately for my cock my hand would have to do.
15 minutes later I appeared downstairs for breakfast, checking the clock on the oven making sure I wasn't late for university, 7:15, perfect timing. I could have breakfast and make it to uni on time for once, I was sure my tutors would be both impressed and unable to resist the temptation to drop a sarcastic comment which I was sure the rest of my classmates would find amusing. With my bag packed and breakfast taken care of I was ready for the day; it was only midweek which meant I was already half-way done. Hallelujah! I lived for the weekends.
"Don't forget to check your lottery ticket Jack, you left it on the side before you went up last night" my mother called.
'Great shout mum' I thought.
The numbers had been called out the night before and I had completely forgotten to check them! Obviously not expecting much I took out my galaxy S9 and opened google.
'Last night's lottery numbers' *search*
I glanced down at my numbers while it took the page a few seconds to load... 7,13,29,30,37,50 and the bonus ball, 3.
"Oh, nice a 7 and a 29... wait, 13... 50... 29, have I said 29, Shit, I've said 29" my excitement was building.
The numbers started merging, they seemed to match my numbers, but my brain hadn't caught up with reality.
