Dream a happy dream

Leon Luz is a normal teenager, he is 16 Years old, 1,79 cm tall, with short brown hair, a lot of freckles on his face, a very white skin color and a not so muscular build, but even so he wasnt that weak. He was a teenager and as a consequence of that he is pretty much against everything his parents tell him to do. This is not to mean that he doesn't love them, it is just that normal teenage tantrum against the world. Leon lives with his two parents and his little sister. He goes to school like his friends. He wouldn't call himself popular but at the same time he had a lot of friends. It was his little group that formed after they got to know anime and were hooked on it. They weren't the full out weebs you would find on the internet. Normal teenagers that like Dragon Ball, Naruto and One Piece. After their schoolmates found out about it they started to call them the Narutos. It wasn't in an insulting manner, just as a friendly nickname.

Lisa, Leon's mother, had short blond hair that went to her shoulders. She was 1,70m tall, had a lot of freckles on her face and a very white skin tone. She is a successful sales manager for a big ink company. She was always focused on being a great mother rather than being a super successful worker at her company. She is happy with what she has. A loving husband, an annoying teenager, and a lovely daughter. She was 32 years old when she got pregnant with Leon. As his mother she always worries about his life choices but doesn't force him to anything. She wants his son to live his own life. Make his own mistakes and learn from them.

Mathew, Leon's father, was 1,90m tall; he had short white hair and a more brown skin tone. He is a successful attorney, he is the iron fist at home. Having had a tough upbringing with his parents Mathew is a believer that tough love education works. He was 36 when Leon was born. The Luz household is marked by the back and forth clashing of father and mother. Most of their friends are surprised they even lasted that long with the constant back and forth discussions they have. But they wouldnt understand the deep love these two share. It is because of this back and forth that they compliment each other. Having only one personality to base oneself in as a child is not always the best.

As a last family member we have little Genie. Genie is only 8 years old. She is 1.26m tall, has brown hair, a lot of freckles on her face and a very white skin color.She loves to play with her dolls and with her big brother. Her life is simple. She doesn't make her own important choices yet. The blissfulness of the ignorant. Leon envies his sister's calm and relaxing life, where the most important choice is what she would eat for dinner, or when she would meet with her school friend on the weekend.

"Leon, Genie come downstairs to eat your dinner. " Today was a normal Thursday night. The family got together to eat their family dinner together. It was tradition already.

"Coming!" Leon was just online with his friends on skype. They used to play a lot of minecraft together.

"Again on that game of yours son? Don't you have an exam next week?" Matthew asked Leon.

"Yes, and yes. But I will meet up with my friends this weekend for our usual study group. So don't worry."

All four of them were at the table now. Elisa started to give little Genie her food and the boys started to get theirs. They had a fun dinner. Talked about different things, politics, economy, school gossip and more. After finishing dinner Leon was on cleaning duty. This was his usual role. His mother cooked the food so she was already up and out of the kitchen. She wanted to see that kitchen shining when she came back tomorrow.

While cleaning all the plates and pans Mathew went into the kitchen to pour himself a cup of water.

"Hey dad."

"Hey son."

After pouring himself a glass of water Mathew sat down on the stool there and looked at his son.

"What dad?"

Sighing, Mathew said "Ahhh, you know, you remember me a lot. I was always with my friends and enjoying life at your age. And your grandfather was always on my back yelling how I was supposed to focus on studying and not waste my time on my good for nothing friends. I hate to be your grandpa but I think you need to study more son."

'This again…' Leon thought to himself.

"I know dad. And I will. You tell me that all the time, I already know it."

"Okay, I won't press it anymore, but I want to see a good grade or else no more of that computer you understand? "

"Yes…"

"Okay son, dream a happy dream. Goodnight."

"Good night dad."

Leon finished with his cleaning duty and went upstairs to his room. The Luz household was a two story building. At the first floor you had the kitchen, living room and a guest room. On the second floor were the family's rooms. Each had their own, to a total of three and a bathroom that Genie and Leon shared.

Leon got ready to go to sleep, he got out of his clothes and went to bed in his underwear. Like every other teenager! After that he lost himself in that little timeframe before you get to sleep. That time where you start to think about all the things you would like to happen to you. All the arguments you could have won if you had said something different. You think about how your life would be if you had superpowers and so on.

Leon thought about how his life would be if he could fly. Flying through the skies without a problem. After that he thought about how it would be if he could make jutsus like Naruto, or the kamehameha like Goku, or even the gear second of Luffy. And just like that Leon fell asleep.
