My Brother's Best Friend✔️

RECAP:

My touch had no effect on the area and I couldn't feel a thing.

Is this what it feels like to be numb? To be empty?

Soon I found it hard to focus on these thoughts no matter how hard I tried.

Was something put in that water? I tried to think but everything was turning dark.

Forget that... everything was already pitch black.

And when I finally managed to regain my vision, I rubbed my eyes and confusion struck.

Suddenly I was back on the plane.

REBECCA'S POV:

Left.
Right.

I look both ways again and it was just how I remembered it being.

Left.
Right.

That's not possible.

I don't even bother shifting in the itchy seat as I jolt towards a familiar row of chairs.

"Woah, you okay?" I heard from beside me but continued rushing down the empty aisle towards the front of the plane.

Suddenly two firm hands gripped my shoulders and spun me around so that I was forced to meet the voice's face.

But I already knew exactly who it was.

My hands began to uncontrollably shake by my sides as I fixed my gaze on the floor and rolled my shoulders as a gesture for him to let go.

In that moment, he could have said something -anything. I didn't have a clue.

My brain ached, more so than It did earlier today when I was laid beside Ashton. My Ashton.

It ached with the idea that he was gone.

It ached with the fact I was somehow back on this goddamn plane.

But, right now, it ached with the realisation that I was feeling... And I was feeling everything.

From the subtle breeze of bitter air conditioning, to the hands latched to my shoulders and even to the way my lungs welcomed every breath as if it was my last.

I thought you couldn't feel in dreams,

I guess I thought a lot of things.

What are the meanings behind dreams?

'Dreams tell you what you really know about something, what you really feel. They point you toward what you need for growth, integration, expression, and the health of your relationships to person, place and thing. ... When we talk about our dreams coming true, we're talking about our ambitions.'
