Nightmares
It was always a strange feeling when you realized you were dreaming, but it was always cool to see if you remembered it after you were awake. This dream was the most interesting dream I had had in a long time.
Sitting under a lonely oak tree in the middle of a field, I felt very alone and abandoned. I picked at the dead grass all around me and just sat there listening to the wind. For some reason I had the strangest urge to get up and run for no reason at all. I disobeyed the commanded thinking how stupid I would look running like a retard around the empty field, by myself.
"I'll run with ya if ya want." A familiar voice offered. I looked over to the voice. I was surprised to see the exact person I thought it was.
"Sonic." I whispered, running my fingers nervously across a piece of grass in my hands.
"Care to join me?" he asked, offering me his hand. I took it without a second thought and before I could blink, we were running together. To my surprise I could keep up with him and before I knew it, I had pasted him all together. Laughing, I turned to face him, but he was gone.
"Sonic?" I called confused. Behind me I felt the wind come to a stop. "Sonic." I turned, relieved that he didn't leave me, but I was wrong. The eyes that stared back at into mine were not the kind, sweet eyes I had met back at the tree. These eyes were on fire from the inside out. Fueled with anger and pain, they dug into my soul, but they were not the only pain I felt. In one fast movement, his hand was on my rist and my rist was on fire. I could feel my scream build up into my throat. It took all I had to hold it in.
"You can't escape me," his calm and sure voice purred in my ear, "I have you right where I want you...." I felt his eyes dig deeper into mine and before I could react, he....
"Sami?" a sweet voice woke me from my nightmare, just in time. I was drenched in cold sweat and breathing hard. I remembered everything that had just happened. I cringed away from the thought of red eyes as I looked at my poor little sister who wore them wet and miserable. I looked at her, puzzled, waiting for an explanation. "I had a bad dream." She sniffed, wiping her aqua eyes with her strawberry blonde curls that hung in her face and down to her jaw.
"Come here sweetie." I said inviting her onto the bed. She crawled up slowly and snuggled up close to me, hoping that I would keep her dreams away and I would, as long as she kept mine away too.
