The Heavenly Kid Page #3

You can count on me.

Rafferty.

Rafferty?

Lenny.

Lenny, guess what Mr. Finley told me

after class?

Hi, Melissa.

He said that you analyze literature

better than anyone he's ever had.

Ever.

Isn't that exciting?

Yeah, I guess.

He's saying you're really special.

Yeah, right. I'm so special,

how come everyone thinks I'm a jerk?

- Nobody thinks that.

- Come on, Melissa.

Nobody cares about that stuff.

- I do.

- Yeah, but you're different.

Look, I have to go.

Let's get together later.

Maybe we can study or something?

Yeah, okay.

Hi, Sharon.

What do you want, douchebag?

- Nothing.

- Then what are you doing here?

I came to apologize to Sharon

about last night.

Okay, she heard you. Now move it.

You hard of hearing, pecker-head?

I said, "split."

Watch this.

I hope you're not thinking of taking

another dive.

'Cause I ain't going to be down there

to catch you this time.

Where did you come from?

Let's just say I dropped in.

Sorry I was in such a hurry this morning.

My name is Bobby.

Lenny.

Nice view you got here, Len.

Yeah, it's okay.

Must be good for thinking.

Yeah.

Look, Len, let's cut the sh*t.

You need a lot of help,

and that's why I'm here.

I've been watching you.

I know how you feel

about that chick, Sharon.

- You do?

- Yeah.

And I could fix it so she'd go out with you.

I might even fix it so she'd fall for you.

- You could do that?

- Yep.

I can do a lot of stuff.

Wait a minute.

- Who are you?

- This morning when I caught you...

- how do you think I did that?

- I don't know.

Well, I can do that because...

I am not of this Earth.

- Not of this Earth?

- Yeah.

You know, dead.

- I have to be going now.

- Wait, I'm not finished.

I've got this play to read, and my brothers,

I have to make them dinner.

Look, kid. This is no bullshit.

- It was nice seeing you again.

- I'll prove it.

This jacket is real special to me, kid.

Now, don't take your eye off of it.

Because I'm going to make it fly

like an eagle.

Great trick.

Now I remember. Rafferty said you have

to do something with your hands.

See that tree?

I'm going to make it disappear.

Rafferty said there was a knack to it.

Well, maybe you should try something

a little different.

Something easier. Like, you know,

make it rain, or turn yourself into a duck.

Don't piss me off, kid.

What are you doing?

I've been too ambitious.

That's my term paper.

What are you doing?

Trust me.

Check it out.

Got any tape?

- That's it. I'm going!

- Wait.

I just had an idea.

I should've thought of this before.

The next car...

that comes down this road...

is going to go right through me.

Hey, you don't have to do this. I believe you.
