He woke up in the middle of the night. Screaming. Naturally I woke up as well. After all, we slept in the same bed. He was shivering, sobbing as I held him in a firm grasp, stroking his brown hair whispering to him.
"It was only a dream, sweetie. They were only movies."
"But..." He struggled to get the words out but his voice wouldn't obey him. "But it was so real." He finally managed to say.
"It's not," I promised him and kissed his forehead. "You're a human, not a vampire. In fact you're the most human human I know."
"I don't know, sometimes I'm not even sure what's real anymore." He closed his eyes and frowned. "Sometimes they are as real as you are. Jacob, Alice, Carlisle... Bella..." His voice took on an odd mixture of love and terror as he said the last name.
"Hey! Stop it!" I told him. "They are not real. They are characters in a movie you hate. Look at me! Look at me and tell me your name!" He opened his grey eyes and in those eyes I saw all. Horror, doubt and madness.
"I'm Edw-" He started.
"No!" I interupted him "Tell me your name." I countined with my most comanding voice.
"I'm... I'm Robert Pattison." though his voice was filled with uncertainty.
"What did you do?" I asked him.
"I played the main character in Twilight."
"Good... Now who am I?" This was the final question. The most important question. He didn't reply at first. He just looked in my eyes and I looked into his. I couldn't even imagine how hard this must be for him. Ever since the final movie had played in cinemas the nightmares had followed him. So many times he had woken up, cold with sweat, alone. He had started seeing her around every corner. Then the others, his characters family. Then he met me. For a while it seemed like his sanity was coming back, months passed without him having nightmares he seemed so relieved. Although that didn't last. One night he saw her again in a dream calling for him. He tried so hard to resist but the dreams kept coming, as soon as he closed his eyes they were there. His mouth began to form the words, his beautiful lips started to say my name and that's when I saw it. The last spark of Robert disappearing, his mind being consumed by the character he once loathed. His eyes shifted from grey to golden amber and he said.
"BELLA SWAN!"
