Dennis, was your average high school student. He had just graduated and this was his summer off before going to college. Dennis lived at home for now with his parents, and his older sister who was back home after her first year at university.
He woke up one Saturday morning to his alarm having not slept very well. In fact, he hadn't been sleeping well for quite some time now. His sister Sarah said "It's probably just nerves, or something about going to college." While he knew she was probably right he still wanted to do something about it. Heading down stairs into the kitchen, he saw her already there sipping some coffee. Dennis thought Mom and Dad must still be away.
Sarah "Wow you look like shit, still not sleeping well?"
Dennis noticed Sarah was just wearing a big T-shirt. It seemed to be just long enough to cover her butt, and thin enough to show her nipples.
Dennis "No not really, do you think I should get into coffee to help me in the mornings?"
Sarah "It's all in your head, you just need something to help you calm down at night. Why don't you go to the shops in town, and see if you can find a dream catcher?"
Dennis "That's a lot of work for something that's not going to do anything."
Sarah "My friend Michelle gave me the address of this place on Main St in the older section of town. She said it really helped."
Dennis took the old business card Sarah had written the address on. On the other side was the name of a roofer their parents had used a few years back. He put it in his pocket.
Dennis "Can I use your car?"
Sarah "No I have plans, use your bike!"
So Dennis rode off into town and down to Main St. As he rode he held the business card in his hand and checked it against the numbers. Finally at the end of a row of shops one read "Mystical Oddities". Next to it was an empty parking lot where he stashed his bike.
Entering the store Dennis saw all kinds of weird things, eventually he decided to talk to whoever was behind the counter. At the counter there was no one there, so he rang the bell. As soon as he did a girl popped up from behind. She looked about his age but he didn't recognize her. Dark chestnut hair with light skin and D cups seems like something he would have remembered.
Dennis "Hello, I'm looking for something that'll help me sleep better."
Girl "Sleep better? Well we do have some dream catchers, they're locally made with real leather and feathers."
Dennis rolls his eyes wondering WTF he's doing here and how much it's going to cost him.
Dennis "Ok i guess, that one looks good."
Dennis points to one hanging up and the girl reaches for it, she starts wrapping it up. Then she pauses for a moment and asks "How did you hear about us?"
Dennis "A friend of a friend recommended this place, Michelle."
Suddenly her posture shifts from relaxed to upright.
