A/N: I just realized I had this sitting here for no reason and nothing was typed. Well now my spelling and such is better let's get this going shall we?


It was late that night. No not like the cliche horror like someone is gonna murder them kind. It's just really late like three in the morning kind of crap. Anyway; the small two bedroom apartment Eve had with Olivia in the other room slept peacefully. The painting of Garry however, started to move. Not like he was moving like a Hogwarts painting. But paper started to push outwards. Like a hand was forcing it's way through. Eve awoke to a shout and a loud thud. Her long brown hair was a mess in it's bun but she got up and went to check. After grabbing her flashlight she snuck out of her room and pointed the light down the hall.

"Hello?" She asked, this was like the haunted gallery. Well not really it just felt it. As she went down the hall she heard some mumbling and movement. She peaked around the corner and saw a figure standing there. She pointed the flashlight at the figure and it showed the strange colored torn blue coat she remembers. The figure turned and blinked a bit. Only his right eye was showing. His lavender colored hair was a mess as usual and he was a bit puzzled. Eve resisted tears and dropped the flashlight and hugged the male.

"Woah...! Hey what are you..?"

"Garry you're awake..! I knew it!" Eve cried and Garry blinked a moment.

"... Eve..?" Garry asked and another figure came from the hall.

"Alright what's all the noise?" Olivia asked and stopped seeing Garry, "Who the hell is... That..?" She asked and Eve moved and grabbed Olivia's hand.

"Olivia this is Garry. Remember the one I told you about?" Garry blinked and looked around the apartment. It was neat and clean. There was even a decoration by a lamp covered with blue roses. Clearly fake but it looked great.

"Wait... So.. THIS is Garry?" Olivia asked after Eve had pulled Olivia aside explaining, "Man aren't you a snug bug in a rug~"

"I don't know what that means..." Garry frowned and Eve sighed and looked to Garry. Noticing something odd. He... Didn't age at all.

"Eve how long was I in that painting? How many years has passed?!" Garry asked and Eve looked to Olivia and than back to the puzzled male.

"You obviously remember the gallery.. I was nine when we met.. You were twenty-three." Eve started and looked to her feet, "It's been ten years and no one else remembers you. O-Only people who were in there apparently do." Garry looked at Eve in shock. It's been ten years since the gallery incident. And he doesn't know what happened. He doesn't know at all.

"Let's get some sleep.." Olivia said and stretched, "We got school in the morning." And so the dark girl went into her room and Eve smiled and looked to Garry.

"That's a good idea." Eve smiled and yawned, "Want me to help you with stuff?"

"N-Nah.. I'll be okay." Garry shook his hands, "I'd like a shower though.. After a while you know the smell of paint." Garry made a disgusted groan and Eve smiled and laughed.

"I'll get you some clothes. After that bed!"


"So where we going?" Garry asked and Eve and Olivia walked with their bags. Looking to one another and than t Garry.

"University." Eve answered and Garry blinked and jogged behind the two girls.

"Really? You serious? Aren't you nineteen?" Garry asked and Eve nodded and continued walking with Olivia.

"Yeah I am. I am also on a scholarship." She smiled to the male. Once they made it to the University Eve pointed to the left side of the campus, "There's a free art class on the other side of the campus room 250A. We'll be out at three today. And lunch is at eleven."

"Lunch eleven out at three." Garry smiled and the girls rushed inside the school than Garry realized. He's on his own! He looked around and went the way Eve told him. This is gonna be WEIRD. As he went to the said class he saw it was pretty empty. Well it was early to start, it was seven in the morning. Also there was a list of visitors on the wall. Garry went and took a look at the list seeing that all he needed to do was to write in his time in and time out. As well as his name.

"Easy enough." Garry smiled and got a pen and wrote down his name and time. Seeing there was an activity slot he thought a moment, than wrote 'painting'. Why not, he spent ten years in a shell of a horrific painting gallery. He should be okay with this. He grabbed a set if paints and a couple brushes, as well as a cup of water and a cavern. Sitting before it he looked at the blank cavern and tried to figure out what to paint. He could paint a nice sky, or a mountain.

Or the horrific things he saw at the gallery.

Garry shook his head, god that wasn't a good idea. But it would look interesting in his image. But what? The women in red? Or Blue? Or maybe the headless mannequins? Or even those creepy dolls! Garry shivered at the thought of those and just started painting. After about an hour of starting people started to come in. Some were ditching class, some were there to draw or write. Even a couple people read in there. He guessed as long as you weren't disturbing those who were doing anything else it'd be different. When Garry wasn't paying much attention someone came and looked over his shoulder, now THAT he noticed. Sighing and looking to the people behind him he rose a brow to them.

"Can I help you?" He asked and one of the boys shook his head.

"I can't believe you can paint like that.. That's creepy." He said and Garry looked at his work. So far his painting was a couple of horrific looking things. He did paint the woman in red as well as the mannequin heads. At the end of the hall was a hand reaching out if the frame at the end of the hall. He guessed it was pretty spooky.

Garry than shrugged, "I guess it is... Just something I felt was right."

"What was the inspiration?" A girl asked and Garry blinked a moment. How would he explain this?

"It was a pretty bad dream. It was reoccurring that I was stuck in the gallery with someone and we were trying to escape. But every time we almost make it... I kinda die.." He frowned and the people around him were in shock. Wow he effected people that much.

"Dude you should donate your art! It's so dark and meaningful."

"Meaningful how?"

"You die risking your life for your love~"

"WOAH WOAH WOAH!" Garry held his hands up after putting the brush down, "The other isn't what you think..." He stood and laughed, before continuing he decided to let it dry a bit. The group rose a brow and one smirked.

"What is it a boy?"

"No it's a girl... And she's... Younger than me.." He sighed and everyone looked interested. Garry groaned, "Look, it was just a dream leave it be..."

"I remember Eve talking about a dream like that once." A student said and the others looked to her, "She said she was locked in with this guy who fitted your description." She said and Garry grabbed a hairtie from his pocket and put his loose hair in a pony tail so it wouldn't get in the way. Than sat before the painting again.

"So?"

"So, I think you two are meant to be~" She smiled and Garry looked at her in shock. His face flushed. He admits, only to himself, that Eve grew into a beautiful adult. But the fact that someone said that out was insane!

"What is that supposed to mean?!" Garry asked with his face still red from embarrassment. The student smiled.

"When you see someone in your dreams no matter how old you are, you are able to fall in love with that said person and you can go find them. I think that's what happened with you two."

"That's a rummer.." Garry said and started to work on the painting again, "Besides I doubt it's true."

"You're here though." Another student said. They were right.. He was here. And it was because of Eve..


"So Eve." The art teacher started, "How's that painting you got from the auction? Did you learn anything from it?" Eve blinked and looked at Olivia in shock. Oh no! She was supposed to study Garry's painting! Quick say something!

"W-Well... I learned that in the painting he's very lonely.. And sad.. Also in a comatose state."

"Huh.. You never slip up.. You didn't study did you?"

"N-No sir.. I'll write up tonight though..!" She said and the teacher nodded.

"You better. We don't want our best art student to fail."

After classes.

Ahh, they were free! Eve went into the room Garry was in and was to find a spot where he most likely was painting. No one was in the room as she entered.

"Garry..?" She asked and went to see what he was painting. Covering her mouth in amazement to see what he has done. It was the gallery. The doll monster at the end. Lady in Red crawling out of her painting, headless mannequins here and there. And at the bottom was two roses. A red and a blue. She smiled and saw Garry's signature at the very bottom. Hearing a door open she looked to see who it was. It was Garry carrying brushes and a cup with him.

"Oh! Eve." He said and went and put the materials away, "I see you saw the painting..?" He asked.

Eve nodded, "It looks as I remember it..." She sat on the stool, "It looks so... Creepy.. But it's so beautiful.." Garry went and sat with Eve.

"Yeah.. It was fun in there too." He looked to Eve and Eve looked back to him. The two stared at one another than away from one another. It felt so awkward for some reason. Eve stood and put her bag over her shoulder.

"L.. Let's go home. Olivia is waiting for us." She smiled and Garry did as well, putting his jacket on and the two took one another's hand without really thinking. Walking out hand in hand.

Something they would have done... If Marry didn't get a hold of Garry's rose...
