The Perk- Thursday
Billy was not having the best day. Really, the past week had been pretty much a crap fest. Out of the past four nights, three had been filled with nightmares every time he tried to sleep. Every night he found himself back in Racoon City, trapped in the mansion again. Sometimes it was a different part of the mansion... But every nightmare ended the same. With the zombies. And every time he woke up in a cold sweat, heart near pounding out of his chest, and a sickening feeling in the pit of his stomach.
After three nights of it, Billy decided it was better to just not sleep at all. The nightmares couldn't last forever. They would eventually stop. Or at least they wouldn't be as bad. He had gone through this before. He had dealt with the flashbacks and nightmares once before. He could do it again.... hopefully... he was already pushing nearly 48 hours without sleep at this point. And he was sure he was starting to look about as great as he felt.
So there he was, situated in the corner of The Perk, his third extra large cup of coffee with espresso shot in front of him, the barista possibly giving him concerned glances as she worked behind the counter.
[Coffee shop and post are very much open!]
