'Her smile'
I stared at the bed where she lay, long blonde curls falling off Carly's velvet purple pillow, eyes lightly closed, mouth opened into a perfect oval, I smiled, narrowing my eyes and fiddling where I sat on the windowsill.
"She fell asleep?" I looked over at Carly who carried two glasses of ice tea in her hands, as I listened to Collide by Howie Day over the dimmed stereo. I rolled my shoulder, sending her one of my crooked grins and nodding.
"Yea…she passed out right after you left." She smiled and handed me a glass, setting down Sam's on her clear coffee table, then sat down next to me, looking at Sam.
"It's almost like she's not the blonde haired demon she is in real life…so peaceful" I relaxed my tense body and sighed softly.
She laughed, looking at me now, holding my hand, resting her head on my shoulder.
"Probably dreaming about frolicking through a field of ham." I chuckled, nodding, but trying to squirm from her grasp without it being noticeable.
[Sam's dream]
Freddie stood, his hand out to me, I smiled brightly, reaching out, but he vanished, turning into ash, and the sky around me turned black, the only light was the gray sun. I frowned, turning around, seeing something flicker and ripple in the air above me. A vision…
It was Freddie and Carly, laughing and smiling, holding hands, kissing, dancing together in the Groovie smoothie. Tears filled my eyes and I froze, the next scene coming up stabbing a dagger right through my heart.
"Sam…I think I'm in love with Freddie" Carly's grinning face showed up, and the entire then collapsed to the floor, bursting into flames.
'How did this happen…? We were so close, I thought…that I meant something'
An image of Freddie flashed on my side, then in front of me, then behind me, I followed him with ease, then, again he smiled.
'goodbye'
"Freddie!"
I gripped his hand, but a shadow appeared behind me, and he raised a knife over Freddie's head, his face brightened up.
"Sam" he whispered, but the shadow swung down, and blood flew everywhere, making my eyes widen, and my heart stop.
Freddie fell into my arms and the tears streamed out with me noticing.
"Freddie" I shook him, stuttering and shaking.
"f-freddie!" I cried harshly, shaking him harder.
"wake up! No!"
"FREDDIE DON'T LEAVE ME!" I jumped, suddenly looking over to see Sam, sitting up, Panting, I froze, my heart beat increasing.
Carly flinched, frowning.
"Sam?" she whispered, eyebrows knitted. I stood and walked over to Sam, wrapping my arms around her neck and holding her to my chest.
"Sam…ssshhh…calm down" I patted her head, running my fingers through her messy blonde locks, until I felt her wrap her arms around my waist.
"don't leave me! Don't leave me…don't leave me…" I heard her scream into my chest, which was surprising to me, she's never been one to show emotion…so unlike her and yet…
"it's okay"
"no it's not! You left me, you died! You liar!" she punched me in the gut and I hurrumphed, gritting my teeth.
"o-ow" I muttered and sighed, lifting her chin.
"look-look at me, look at me…I'm here aren't I?" she gazed at me with blurry sky blue eyes, which made them glisten, she nodded.
"um…Freddie…can I talk to you?" Carly asked calmly, and I looked over, standing.
"sure hold-"
"Fre-Freddie!" she reached out for my head, nearing dragging me back down to the bed, I looked at Sam.
"it's okay, I'll only be a minute" it was weird for her to want me so much…it made my heart clench, and my head hurt, I couldn't explain it but…
She nodded, lowering her eyes, and I got up again, following Carly out of the room.
