Dance the Night Away

(Song: In a Landscape by John Cage)

As I wake from my nap, I discovery that I'm not at home, or on the couch that I was crushing on. The escaping daylight is a sign that I wasted a day sleeping, I started to freak out. I get out of the bed, and something catches my eye. Why am I in a tux? I try to take it off, but it seems that the suit is glued on to me. The room that I am in as a old style to it. It like a museum piece I saw once a long time ago. No TV, nor a telephone. Just one bed, a few light bulbs (so I guess this room dates back to at least the 1920's), and the bathroom. I exit out of the room to the hallway.

This a strange, haunting, yet beautiful place. The sun is now gone, the veil of darkness now covers the sky. I see that I'm still in the city, Station Square, Capital, or Empire, I'm not sure. At least I know that I'm close to where I was. As I walk down the stairs, I start to joke with myself, 'Watch this, I'm going to make the it around the corner and I'm going to see a lobby with people dancing, a big band playing Dance Hall music, and the room rivals' the Cappella Sistina.

(Song: Midnight, the Stars and You by Al Bowlly with Ray Noble and His Orchestra)

'You've got to be kidding me!' I said to myself. Either this place is going to be in a blaze in a couple of minutes or something magically is going to happen. I sit at one of the many chairs so I could look at the splendor of this room. There are people at the bar having light or heavy conversation, drinking whisky, cosmopolitans, or other cocktails. Some are dancing and some are just standing around listening to the beautiful music. I decide to walk around the room hearing the conversations between the people, mainly about their vacation in the city, or at the beach. I get to one of the many staircases and I don't know why, but my body and mind wanted to stay put. That is strange for me.

"Oh, you made it." Said a voice. The voice sounded familiar so I decide to see who it was, but what I see is one of the most beautiful things I've seen in a while. A gorgeous women in a beautiful flapper dress, but I could not see her face. "Shall we dance?" asked the girl. "Su-Sure" I said with a stutter.

We start to dance, to the music in the hall.

(Song: Digital Love by Daft Punk)

We Waltz, the Charleston, and many more other dances. We didn't notice that most of the people in the hall where either looking at us, or they already left to go back to their rooms. That is when we grew tired dancing, know it us just us, my head on her head, and her head is on my shoulder, slowly just dancing to the sound of the beats in your head. She then put her face in front of mine, and I ask her, "Who are you?"

She giggles. "You already know me," now I know that voice, "Sonic the Hedgehog!"

"Amy!" That is when she starts to walk away, "Wait, Amy, where are you going?"

"To wake up." I look at her confused, that is when this bright light hits my face, and I scream for Amy.

(Background noise of a machine shop)

I wake by someone shaking me, and I get the familiar smell of oil, machine turning sounds and my buddy Tails looking over me with a worried look.

"Are you alright? I heard you scream, is everything OK?"

"Yeah, I'm good, just a little scare as all." I said to Tails.

I didn't want to tell him that my dream was about me and Amy dancing in a beautiful room, and who I wanted to continue my dancing with Amy for all eternity. Next time I see Amy, I might be a nervous wreck, or not. I just need to keep my cool around her, but, if she asks me to dance with her, I might go for it. Who knows, it could be like a dream.
