just a little piece of crap i typed up. enjoy.


I wake up from a nightmare, again. I'm panting, and I close my eyes. Blackening hair droops in front of my eyes. I grew my hair long, like Eri and Neku said to. So want to hear 'bout my nightmare?

I'm choking, with my hands clasped around my throat, squeezing. Squeezing. Squeezing. I see Neku's pained face, and my vision begins to fade. Then I wake up, and I'm tired and scared. I've had these nightmare ever since I got out of the Game.

Neku's cool lips touch my hot and sweaty neck, and his tired, low voice says, "You okay?"

I nod in response, and he pulls me back into his grip, and I feel safe. My breathing becomes calm, and his cool breath comforts me, as I fall back into his arms.

Safety. Comfort. Warmth.

Love.

That's all I'm feeling when I'm in his arms. But...

I can still feel the hands around my throat.

Choking.

Choking.

Choking.
