I completely forgot I had this account. Well I'm back to it. Anyway this is an Control multiverse crossover thing with an oc as the main character. Also includes bits and pieces from Alan Wake.
I was sitting in a booth in a cafe. Waiting for someone. Who?
"Hi Silva! It's been a while!"
Looking up I saw an unfamiliar face, but I knew it. A head of brown hair reaching his nape, light stubble on his chin. Mid 30's. Smiling I stood up and hugged him.
Letting go I sat back down on my seat, He took a seat in front of me.
"Aiden it's been far to long. It's great to see you again." Why am I here? Who is this? How do I know him? "How is Samantha?"
"Oh, she's great. But you know how pregnant woman can be. Third kid we're having." Leaning back he let himself relax, he wasn't stressed rather he was tired. "There's not a lot of time for yourself when you have kids, especially when another is on the way."
"Yeah I can tell" smiling I waved at a waitress, we quickly took our orders. Taking a sip of my coffee 'when did I get this?' I turned back to our conversation.
"Three kids, think this last ones going to be your last?"
"Stop? At just three? Hahaha. Samantha said she wants at least four kids." Shaking his head he drank his coffee. "She's a strong woman. Giving birth ain't easy and I can't imagine the pain of birthing a child, but willing do it again after experiencing it? Takes a strong woman."
"She always said she wanted a large family." I don't know her. Do I have a history.
"Yeah she certainly did."
It got quiet.
Aiden sighed looking down. A weight settling over him.
"You know. I was worried. You just disappeared for six months. No one knew where you were." He looked up "Now you're back. Where were you?"
I disappeared? No i didn't.
Putting my hands in my lap I looked down and focused on them.
"I actually don't remember all too well. It's foggy. All I can remember are images. It's too vague. There was a knife, or a dagger of some ki-"
A flash. An old dagger made of stone. A voice echoing. Something I can't hear. Something important.
"Silva."
Looking up I saw Aiden and focused for the first time. He was blurry and it looked like he had grain on him, like a film grain. His eyes were white.
"I think it's time you WAKE UP!"
At those words I fell back the booth having disappeared and I tumbled down into darkness.
I fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and and fell and fell and felland fell and fell and felland fell and fell and felland fell and fell and felland fell and fell and felland fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and felland fell and fell and fell and fell and fell and fell fellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfellandfell

Wake Up
"Ah"
Falling out of bed my face slammed into my carpeted floor.
"...ow"
I layer there for a moment before sitting up and rubbing my eyes from the morning bleariness blinding me.
Beep Beep Beep Beep
Muttering under my breath I stood up and picked the ringing phone off my nightstand. Looking down I saw who was calling, before sighing and answering with a growl.
"It's early Keith."
A drawling voice came from the phone, a voice I'm unfortunately familiar with.
"Wow someone's grumpy today. Having nightmares?"
"Why are you calling this early."
"Ok defiantly a nightmare. Straight to business." He paused. Waiting.
God damn it.
"What is it?"
Fucker
"Oh you are going to love this! You know how I'm an employee of this museum right?"
"The Grainwood museum. And I know you work there. You've been there for years."
"Ah. You remembered. Remind me to kiss you when you get here today."
"I'd rather not kiss you and the fuck you mean I'm gonna be going there today?"
he better not be pulling any shit.
"Well the museum just got a new exhibit and they want people to admire it. So Mister Grahm thought to give employee friends and families a free look see. And since you're my only friend and I'm an orphan..."
Fucking puppy pulling the guilt card. Doesn't mean it doesn't work."
Sighing I slouched.
"it's today."
"Yep!"
"When."
"2:00pm. So you don't gotta get out of bed early!"
"I'm already awake."
"Ok! Love you! See you there!"
beep beep beep beep
"Fucker hung up."
Standing up I went to take a shower. Unbidden a smile on my lips.
I don't really do large chapters at the beginning of stories. But they'll get larger I promise. Good day
