But his eyes. His eyes sent shivers down my spine, they were sadist, mocking me.
You know how in fairy tales there's always a monster? His worse far worse than the villain who poisoned snow white, or locked Cinderella up.
He haunted my dreams, chas...

"I see her in my dreams. I see her everywhere. But I could never get to close it would shatter her."
Salvador Torres,
Beep. Beep.
I could hear them all of them. I could feel Beth's anger towards me.
I could hear the doctors trying to desperately save me.
I can even hear my own failing heart.
I couldn't move. It felt like a dream. But it feels so real.
I could hear the waves crashing, the setting sun warming her golden skin. Her hair wasn't fire like Val's, or honey like Beth's, it was made of the gold.
The gold strands of hers danced in the wind. Teasing me. Taunting me. Her back was towards me, maybe she didn't know I was here yet. Her hands were wrapped around her. Her feet sunk in the soft grains of the sand, being washed away by the small waves.
"You need to go back." I stopped in my tracks. Its been three years since I heard her voice. I paid for her phone bill every month to listen to her voicemail, to just remember the voice.
Wake up now Salvador.
I waited and closed my eyes but I can still hear the waves, waiting for reality to slap me across the face and laugh at my stupidity.
She turned to look back at me, maybe her hair wasn't fire. Maybe it wasn't honey either. But those grey eyes of hers were the same.
"Alice." I breathed out. Goosebumps formed on every inch of my skin as she kept her gaze on me. How I wished every night to just have her look at me the way she does right now. Like I was the only good left in the world. Like I haven't harmed a soul. Like my soul didn't die with hers.
"Salvador. Por que?" (Why?)
She asked. She was in a white dress, she looked like an angel. I didn't want to move, I'm scared. I feel scared. I feel.
Emotions. My eyes brimmed with tears. We were on the beach.
"Come here." She held her hand out, but I held my breath, her eyes held a warmth that shouldn't be there, I looked down at her hand where I saw the ring.
"You left." I said. Somewhere in the back of my mind I could hear Beth screaming. I-i shouldn't be here.
"Of course you should. You always call on me. You feel don't you?" Alice asked me her hand was waiting for mine.
"Your going to disappear. You left me." I whispered again, she smiled that smile that bought peace to my heart. The smile that made all the bad things in the world seem okay.
"What are you talking about Salvador, did Santiago put you up to this? Or are you working with Amelia now?" She asked stepping towards me, as I took a step back.
