You are all about to hate me so much! *laughs evilly*
Dani sat bolt upright. She was in bed. The sun was shining. And Myles was laying next to her.
It was all just a dream? she thought. Wow, that's the strangest dream I ever had. She slowly got off of the bed. I wonder if my parents are home from the hospital. Sure enough, her mom was sitting at the kitchen table, sipping a cup of coffee.
"Good morning, Dani." She said.
"Good morning, mom. When did you guys get home?"
"Only about an hour ago. We didn't want to wake you." Dani sat down across from her.
"Dad's okay?"
"Oh, yes. He's fine."
"Thank god."
"I assume you invited Myles and Beckett over?"
"Yeah, I did."
"Okay, good. It's not unlike them to show up unannounced, but . . ."
"You know, I had a really weird dream . . ." Dani said suddenly.
"Really? What?" Her mother asked curiously.
"Well . . . Myles and I were talking on my balcony, and then Beckett said he had to come in, andwekindaalmostkissed, and then-"
"Wait, what?" Dani's mom asked, leaning forward.
"I know, weird. Anyway . . . weendedupkissing and then wekindasortawentonadate and got into a car crash." Her mother shook her head in disbelief, and said something Dani didn't quite hear. "What?"
"Nothing. Tell you what, why don't you just go talk to Myles?"
"Alright . . ."
Strangely enough, Dani found she couldn't say a word about the dream to Myles when he woke up.
Her mother watched her go with a smile. Myles and Dani. As close as it was possible to get. But they would become more, she was sure. They would walk the same path so many others before them had taken. You didn't have to be a genius to figure that out . . . She quietly sipped her coffee. She just hoped it happened within the week.
Otherwise, she would owe her husband ten dollars.
