The Dream Walker and Catcher

Chapter 6 - Keeping Distance

The view that I saw was pitch black. Everywhere I looked was dark and I felt scared and lonely and I didn’t know what to do or where to go.

‘….Clar….e..’

I heard a faint voice. Where did it come from? I looked around me but there was no one to be found except for me.

‘Clare…..’

The voice now was clearer and at that moment, my vision became brighter and brighter until it felt like I opened my eyes. The surroundings where unknown for me. The atmosphere felt good.  This isn’t my room though. Where am I?

‘At my place’ I heard a voice say.

As my vision became more clearer, I saw someone looking at me with beautiful green eyes… it was as if they were trying to tell me something. I tried to figure out what but soon it faded and I wasn’t able to find it back anymore.

Wait…

There was only one person that had those kind of eyes…

‘Evan….?’ I said in a sleepy voice.

‘Yes Cinderella?’ he said in a gentlemen tone

I grinned at that and saw that Evan was sitting beside me as I lay down in bed.

‘…Where am I…?’ I asked instead of thinking it

‘In my room. You collapsed after standing up and I brought you to my place since I don’t where you live’

As everything became clearer and clearer, I began to realize something. My eyes widened and I woke up immediately.

‘Wait, so I am at your place, in your bedroom and in your be…’

‘Right you are, need any more explanation?’

I sensed that my face felt hot and that I was blushing. How could this not be awkward for him?

‘Because I don’t have a perverted mind as you’ he said with a grin

He looked with amusement in his eyes at me as I turned into a red tomato. Great job Clare, great job.

‘I’m just being cautious okay. It’s not like I go to everybody’s bed carelessly’

‘I already can notice that from your expression’

My heartbeat is going faster and faster as I looked at him. Ow gawd, I let my guard down in front of this guy.

‘I’m glad you woke up thought, or else I would have kissed you awake’ he said while holding in his laugh

Just when I was about push this pervert away, he stood up and laughed even harder.

‘Don’t worry, I didn’t do anything….’ I was relieved at that saying ‘bad, but you may throw a rock at me if you had one once you find out’

‘What are you talking about?’

‘You will notice eventually’ and with that he went off to what I assume the kitchen was because I smelled some food there.

‘What are you talking abo-‘ I was going to say again but then sensed something again and it was not the food.

As looked at the surroundings I was in, I noticed there were a lot of books in the bookshelf. The room was pretty neat and clean. He had some posters with bands on it. I recognized some of them. He also had a table where some pictures where. One where there was a little boy with his mom and dad. It was like a family portrait. The mom had green eyes and the father blue ones. The woman there had just the same eye color and feels to it as Evan’s. So that’s where he got those beautiful eyes from I thought
