Chapter 7: Realistic Dreams

"I didn't think you'd actually show up," the boy spoke in pure surprise.

I made my way closer into the abandoned, aged house and set my eyes at his.

The house was very small, almost like a cottage you'd see in fairytales like "Sleeping Beauty"-No one knows I like fairy tales so don't anyone say a word!

Sleeping Beauty…it all starts with innocent dreams she has of a guy and then turns into something more.

I would only watch those movies on certain occasions when I was home alone and had nothing else better to do. Anyways-

"Shows what stupidity you know," I replied flatly, as he ignored my remark.

"I just wanted to see you before-"

"Tomorrow? That's only a couple hours away."

"I know. That is why I'm hoping they go by slow."

I looked up as his eyes, which appeared very cold and sad. I could tell he was being frank by that gaze, yet his stare never seized from its determination state.

He came towards me more, never separating his looks from mine. He took my hand in his, clutching it tightly.

"Why are you acting like this?"

"You would be acting like this too."

He had to admit that I was right, he would not be too happy if it switched the other way around.

"I know but can't we just enjoy the time we have left?" He questioned me.

I contemplated for a moment then nodded in defeat, "I'm just...I probably would not be as upset if it wasn't for…"

"What?"

"You."

Those words made him immediately grab my face and pull it to his', kissing me deeply with every feeling he had inside of him. My eyes grew in shock at first, and then I began to kiss him back just as equally.

"Fanny, I-"

"Fanny? Are you okay?"

Fanny opened her eyes, staring up at the face above her.

Patton cocked his eyebrow at her as she sat up, making him move back some.

"Yes yah stupid boy, I was just havin' some dream is all," She glowered at him.

Patton rolled his eyes then stood to his feet.

"Whatever. We need to get going. You ready?"

Fanny could not help but think back at her dream. Why is she having so many of those dreams? What did they mean? Why was that boy in every single one of them?

"Fanny?" He repeated, causing her to shake her thoughts.

"Yeah," She pushed herself upward to stand, "I'm ready."

She walked past him as he glanced back at her a bit oddly. He then shrugged it off as he followed close by her.

"So what kind of dreams were you having?" Patton asked randomly.

Was he making conversation…with Fanny?

"The annoying kind," Fanny rolled her eyes as Patton rolled his, "Now how far away are we until we get to our destination?"

Patton smirked, "What? You don't know the way?"

Fanny scowled, "No, stupid, you just have the cruddy address," she continued to walk while muttering, "Of all the stupid boys who act so stupid why did I end up with the most stupid one."

"Fine, you want to know?" He handed her the piece of paper as she examined it.

"We're going the wrong way," She stated.

"What makes you so sure?"

"…Because I know."

"Just like you knew how to fly that plane…that is now in bits and pieces," He kept on walking in the direction he was going.

Fanny clenched her fists, frowning at the back of his head, "I'm tellin' yah, it's the wrong way…and I didn't crash that plane, if yah just let me fly it, we wouldn't even have to be walking!"

Patton rolled his eyes, trying to ignore her rant the best that he could.

"Now I'm going this way," She pointed into the opposite direction, "If yah don't want to get lost then you can follow me!"

He whipped his body around to see her walking the other direction.

Patton rolled his eyes, "Cruddy girl…" He grinded his teeth as he followed behind her.

"Are you sure you know where you are going?"

"Duh, you ever see girls on television getting lost? No, yah see those stupid boys who don't even listen to the girls or they don't ask for directions…then they end up lost."

She kept walking as he stuck his tongue out at her, glaring to himself.

"You better be right."

"I am," Fanny answered, rather sure of herself as they continued to walk side by side.

As they both walked, Fanny could not get those dreams and that boy out of her mind. He seemed so familiar and even in her mind when she denied the fact that they kissed and she actually liked the dream, she would tell herself how stupid the guy was and that she wished he and the dreams would go away.

She considered it to be a nightmare but deep down, she was starting to enjoy them.

"There," She smirked proudly as she pointed towards the large building in front of them.

Patton did not want to have to admit she was right, even though she was. He just rolled his eyes and moved onto another subject.

"Okay…let's do this."
