Scenario:   Darryl Witherspoon is an economics student at Stratford University, who does not have the advantages of his wealthy nemesis, Scott Thorpe, or his best friend Tim LaFlour, straight edge punk rocker who has a hockey scholarship. Darryl is so broke he donates four pints of blood in one day (playing a different character each time) and four vials of sperm in one day. Darryl's big break comes when he enters a competition, where the winner gets a high-paying Wall Street job. But when Scott enters the competition, it seems Darryl's break has gone down the drain. He takes on a high-paying experiment to test a drug that enhances the five senses. Darryl uses it to his advantage and he impresses the competition's supervisor, Mr. Tyson and he even joins the hockey team as a goalie. But after taking an extra dose one night, he experiences side effects. The experiment's supervisor, Dr. Thomas Wheedon, tells Darryl only four of his senses will work at a time until the drug leaves his body. As Darryl struggles, Tim thinks that his friend is on heroin and gets worried about him. Darryl's luck then starts going down the drain as he loses the hockey game because his sense of sight is lost. He also mistakenly confesses love to his girlfriend's father who he thinks is his girlfriend as his sense of sight is lost. Her father turns out to be Mr. Tyson. He also acts very clumsily (because of the loss of the ability to see) during the basketball game he is invited to see with a client who needs to be impressed in order for Darryl to score some points with the Smythe-Bates guys. Luckily, the client thinks Darryl is just funny and signs a contract with the company. As the story progresses, Darryl asks his friend Tim to help him study for the next day's interview. At that exact moment, Scott studies for the test with the aid of his rich father's employees. Scott is shown to answer a question correctly but he does not know the reason behind it, he ignores the question. The next day, the drug leaves Darryl's system and now all his five senses operate normally. During the interview, it comes down to Darryl and Scott, Scott is asked the same question he was asked last night, he answers it correctly, but when asked the reason, he does not know, Darryl steps in, gives the correct reason and scores the position of junior analyst at Smythe-Bates. But in his speech, he confesses that he cheated by taking an experimental drug. A meeting is called to decide his fate and Mr. Tyson tells him that he himself started out in the mail room and Darryl should too, if he serves one year duty in the mail room, he will score the position of junior analyst. - Going to college was hard. Going to college across the country was even harder. Instead of having the option to stay at home with your parents for a few more years, you were forced to find somewhere else to live; all the while hoping that rent didn’t absolutely obliterate what little was left of your savings. - That was what led you to signing a lease with your current apartment: it didn’t break the bank and was one of the closest buildings to your school that you could find. It wasn’t a place you were particularly excited to move into but it was livable and for a broke college student, that was enough. - Funny how the luck you’d felt upon finding the place was quickly dashed after a couple of trips up the stairs on moving day…. - You hadn’t expected it to be fun but you didn’t realize just how exhausting it would be to travel up and down and back again with box after box after box. By the time your fourth trip came around, your mind had optimistically chosen to believe that this was “the worst it was ever going to be” in your new home; perhaps in fear that you would never emotionally recover from the experience. - And yet, as though life had a specific vendetta against you, the minute you’d gotten to your door, the cardboard box that you were carrying had torn apart at the bottom, leaving you balancing on one leg and trying to hold it together with your thigh as you struggled to keep your belongings from breaking against the hard floor of the hallway. - You were just about to give up and accept your valuables less than desirable fate when a voice had called out from down the hall, offering you assistance in your time of need. - That was how you’d met Tim, a bright smile on his face and an awkward laugh escaping his lips as the two of you tried to navigate the best way to go about solving your issue. - Once the box was safely inside of your apartment, the two of you introduced yourselves and made some small talk before he excused himself for his hockey practice. He left with an “it was nice meeting you” and an invitation to drop by if you ever needed anything; calling “don’t be a stranger eh” from down the hall with an adorable grin on his face. - You’d expected to never see him again; save for maybe a passing smile while walking to your respective apartment doors. That was how these sorts of things usually happened: a nice deed, an exciting little spark, and then nothing. But that wasn’t the case this time…. - A couple days later, while you were walking across campus, he’d rolled up to you on his skates and greeted you, asking how your move went as he skidded to a stop in front of you. You stood and talked with him for a little while, once again thanking him for helping you and telling him that you appreciate it when he assures you that he’s there if you ever need anything. - You say goodbye after a couple of minutes and you watch him skate off feeling much more optimistic about a potential “relationship” with him; even if it was just a friendship. - That being said, there wasn’t much to write home about until after about a month into your living arrangement. - You’d agreed to have something delivered and installed in your apartment, thinking nothing of it until after one of your friends warned you to “be careful”. The more you thought about it, the more your paranoia began to increase and, after a bit of overthinking, you’d made the slightly embarrassing decision to go across the hall. - You felt a bit stupid asking him but he was the only person you could think of who was friendly enough to make you feel safe and threatening enough to ward off a potential creep. So, swallowing your pride, you asked if he’d stay with you for the hour or so it would take for the delivery man to set it up and, like the sweetheart he is, he replied with “of course”, asking you what time you wanted him to come over. - You weren’t expecting much when you’d asked him but the platinum blond went above and beyond. He was just heading over to your apartment when the delivery man began walking up the stairs and, like a true professional, he’d immediately launched himself into character, grabbing the guys attention with a greeting and leading him to your place after confirming who he was. - The punk opened your purposefully unlocked door with a “hey hon, the ‘x’ is here”, before letting himself and the guy in. Meeting them at the door, you gave them both a smile and happily accepted the side hug given to you by the blonde before turning and dealing with the products paperwork. You signed for everything and the man left to grab your purchase from his truck, leaving yu alone with your neighbor. - Once he was gone, you turned back to Tim, thanking him again and brushing off the somewhat shy apology he’d given for acting like your boyfriend, telling him that it was perfect and that it was a smart idea. - You spent the next hour hanging out and talking, telling each other about your days and other random topics that came to mind; at least ones that made sense for a couple to be discussing. - Time flew by and soon enough the man was finished, packing up his things and beginning to walk towards your door as you got up to thank him and lead him out. Tim lingered on your couch until the man was officially gone, standing up as you closed the door and meeting up with you as you walked back into the room. “Coast is clear,” you joked and the two of you shared a laugh. “Thank you again by the way. It really means a lot.” “It’s my pleasure,” He assured you, slowly making his way towards your door before pausing. “Hey listen, would you maybe wanna catch a movie with me? Or just, you know, hangout sometime?” - You smiled and agreed, offering for him to come over for dinner the next day, saying that it was the least you could do after what he’d done for you. He replied with a cheerful “sounds good” and the two of you said goodbye, excited for your short lived pretend romance to potentially become a real one. - For your first date, you cook a nice meal and the two of you sit and talk, actually getting to know each other instead of making shallow conversation to deceive a delivery man into thinking you’re a couple. Once you get past the slightly awkward small talk, you find yourselves really starting to like each other; though it’s admittedly kind of hard not to like your knight in shining piercings. - Later that night, as you’re walking him to your door, he tells you that he had a lot of fun and you return the sentiment, sharing a longing gaze with him before the two of you finally say goodbye. - You have your first kiss about a week or so later. You’d just gotten home from another date with him and were standing in front of your door, talking for a little while before you actually went inside. One thing led to another and before you knew it, he was leaning down and you were leaning up and the two of you were sharing a kiss. - I’m not going to say that things started to get a little hot and heavy but I will say that he had to hesitantly stop the two of you in fear of ruining his recent pledge to celibacy. - The two of you said a breathless goodbye and it’s been puppy love ever since, dog. - He’s a really affectionate person and loves receiving it in return; unless he’s going through some kind of depravation phase, so mix that with his inherent disregard for other peoples opinions and you’ve got yourself the perfect partner for pda. - He’s always grabbing at your hands regardless of what the two of you are doing. Walking together? He’ll grab one to pull you along with him. In a crowd? He’ll use your intertwined fingers to keep from losing you. Just sitting and talking? He’ll multitask by playing with them. - Speaking of hands: he loves comparing hand sizes. He’s 6′4’’ so there’s bound to be a sizable difference, and he finds it adorable. - So many hugs; he’s borderline obsessed with them. He loves burrowing his face into your neck and having you scratch at his scalp. Sometimes he’ll even pick you up like that just so he can move you to his bed without you having to stop. - Cheek kisses. - Cheerful, excited kisses. He’s a happy-go-lucky person and it’s reflected in the way he kisses you. - Makeout sessions. He isn’t responsible for what happens when you kiss his neck. - Him laying his head in your lap and sleeping on you. - Cuddling is one of his favorite hobbies; he absolutely loves it and he’ll do it in any way he can. Him as the big spoon, you as the big spoon, either of your heads on the others chest, facing each other and holding hands. Whatever you can think of, you’ve probably already done with him. - He uses tons of pet names on you but the one he’s started using the most is “pup”. It probably stemmed from a joke about him calling everyone “dog” all the time but it’s now become a crucial part of how he addresses you. - The two of you practically share apartments at this point. You’ve stayed the night so many times that Darryl isn’t even phased by you walking out in one of Tim’s shirts anymore. He pretty much thinks of you as their third roommate and you might actually end up moving in with them at some point because of it. - Remembering his keys for him. He still forgets where they are even when they’re attached to his skin so it’s your job to remind him. You probably even had your own set prior to him thinking of the whole piercing idea. - Excitedly being shown all of his new piercings. You probably go with him to get some of them; and occasionally have to try and dissuade him from getting something particularly stupid. - Helping him take care of said piercings. - Swapping accessories and clothes. He’s probably tried on a few of your skirts and borrowed a ton of your jewelry, and you’ve probably stolen a bunch of shirts and beanies. - Roller skating with him around campus. - Going to his games and practices. He can’t help but smile whenever he sees you in the crowd. - Watching hockey with him. He doesn’t mind if you don’t know anything about the sport; he’d actually find it kind of cute if you were clueless about yet supportive of his interests, he just likes being able to spend time with you. - Getting poems read to you; though he might interrupt himself to shout at the hockey game on the tv. - Tim would, self admittedly, do literally anything for you. You just say the words and it’s done. - Doing face masks and other self care/“girly” sorts of things together. He doesn’t care what others may think. If they want their skin to look like shit while upsetting their girlfriends then they can do that, but he’ll be sitting in bed with you, pink fluffy headband and sheet mask on, watching When Harry Met Sally while painting your nails like a real man. - Getting massages from him. He’s so sweet and tender that it sometimes genuinely makes you want to cry. - Coloring each other’s hair in your tiny bathrooms with box bleach and dye. Is it arguably bad for you to do? Yeah. Are you gonna continue to do it? Also yeah. - He probably has a bunch of Polaroids and home videos of the two of you. - He’s exactly the type of person to spend an entire night researching something just so he can explain it to you or have a better understanding of some aspect of your life. Have a subject you don’t understand? Well now he’s an expert on it and can teach you. Have an illness or condition? He read all about it just to be a better partner for you. He’s an angel. - Study dates. - Going to the punk hangout spot with him. He was very excited to introduce you to everyone and they were all surprisingly welcoming. - Staying in with him. He isn’t a huge fan of going out and partying so the two of you find nice, quiet things to do in the comfort of your own homes. - Watching Interview with the Vampire and mutually thirsting over Brad Pitt. The film sparks a whole conversation about what celebrities you would fuck; both male and female, as well as a list of famous people you’re both “allowed” to have sex with if ever given the chance. - Concert dates. Expect to either mosh with him or be led to safety before he goes and does. - Listening to open mic nights and sitting in for indie renditions of Shakespeare plays. - Going ice skating. - Late night hangouts. You’ll call each other up at three a.m., go buy some energy drinks at the local convenience store and pull an all nighter. The only time he’ll refuse to do so is if it’s the night before a big hockey game. - He definitely insists on walking you wherever you have to go whenever he can; especially before the two of you got together but were close friends. He’s sort of what the kids would call your “scary dog privilege”; at least to strangers who don’t know he’s actually a sweetheart. - Everyone in your family has no choice but to love him, he’s too sweet for them not to. What other college aged guy would willingly hang out with your younger siblings; and agree with no complaints to let them come with you on dates, or happily go back home with you to meet your parents? - Sticking with him through all of his different phases. - He gets really jumpy and angry when he doesn’t have sex or get some sort of sexual relief so most of his attempts at celibacy end with him getting all handsy and making out with you like you’re never gonna see each other again. - Occasionally hearing him say something that makes you question what plane of existence he’s on. This mans third eye is wide open and it fucks you up sometimes. - Motivational talks and words of comfort. - He can always make you feel better whenever you’re upset. He always makes it his mission to find out what’s wrong and cheer you up, and sometimes his sheer determination to do so winds up making you feel a little less sad; even when his words don’t. - Tim really isn’t a jealous person. He might feel a little insecure at times but once you reassure him that you love him, he’ll stop pouting and be his cheerful “little” self again. - He’s not the best at being threatening or at using his words to defend you but he’s always willing to stick up for you; regardless of how bad he may be at it. - The two of you rarely have a reason to fight and when you do, he’s so bad at it that it’s hard not to just forgive each other and calmly talk things out. He’s a sensitive boy so you yelling at him is a no go, and whenever he does something, he’s always trying to do right by you, so you’ll oftentimes find it difficult to actually be mad at him. - Arguments are usually settled in under an hour; even when you swear that you’re mad at and/or not going to talk to each other. You both wind up giving some kind of apology and hugging it out after the issue is resolved; regardless of who was at fault. You’re both terrible at holding grudges when it comes to the other person and it shows in how you deal with things. - Expect him to say that he loves you constantly. It’s a crucial part of his vocabulary when it comes to you. - If Tim isn’t husband material than I don’t know who is. Enjoy having the best partner in the world for the rest of your life. - He loves to have sex a lot when he isn’t attempting some celibacy thing.
