DECLAIMER - I own nothing but your tears. (Hah, that sounded creepy)
~ Dream ~
Darkness surrounded me. It felt thick. Cold, empty. And yet, I could feel something else, an emotion stronger then the others. But I couldn't quite put my finger on it.
...
was it Darkness? Or Something else?
"I Believe" A voice whispered in the thick air.
"I do" The voice continued in a sweet, lullaby filled voice.
"Who are you?" I looked around the dark room trying to find my bearings.
I felt it move. Who are you?" The voice parroted in an amused voice.
I felt myself frown. "I Am Harry" I replied as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
I saw it shimmer in front of me, as if someone was walking closer.
"Who are you?" I asked again, Voice filled with unadulterated curiosity.
"Hmmm..." The voice hummed. and it was then, I was certain, the darkness was smiling at me.
The darkness leaned closer to me, wrapping around me. it's breath, tickling my ear. "Your name, is not Harry" it's voice dropped lower.
"Yes it is" I responded with a frown.
The darkness moved, as if shaking it's head. "No," I felt something press up against my body. "Darling," The voice whispered "Open your hand"
I opened my hand, and felt something cold slip into it. I lifted it up to my face. It was small and bronze coloured, with many small dents in it. I had seen one of these before. But i can't remember where, "A Thimble?" I asked, looking into the darkness with confusion written all over my face.
The darkness moved, now appearing to be a solid Shadow.
It's hair was sticking up in the front, something long hanging on the side. i followed it's shape down to his arms, and could see uneven trimmed sleeves. the bottom of the shirt was sticking out, and then, the pants, tights? I couldn't tell.
"Not a thimble" The honey voice said, bringing me out of my thoughts. "It is a promise"
"A promise of what?" I asked.
The shadow shook its head. I could tell he shook his head because i could see it. "you have to remember by yourself" It said, bringing its hand up to my face and tapping my nose with it's index finger.
Before i could ask anything else, the shadow jumped back into the darkness.
"Wait!" I called, reaching out towards the darkness.
"Tick Tock" The sweet voice rang throughout the darkness. "Darling"
"I'm not your darling!" I shouted in frustration. I could feel the shadow getting further and further away from me.
"Ha ha ha ha ha!" Tinkling laugher was heard, echoing around me. "You are Darling!"
"What does that mean!" I shouted again.
"I Believe" The voice said "I DO Believe"
End Of Dream
I opened my eyes, sitting up in my red and gold bed. "A dream" I breathed out, feeling sadness swell within.
"Not a dream" The voice echoed in my head. I looked down to my fisted hand and opened it. the thimble was there. Bronze, with many small dents in it. "What Promise?" I Asked myself with another frown.
To Be Continued...
