Sonia & Gundham

Nightmare

Sonia POV

Surrounded by darkness and silence, I sat alone. I felt the hot tears growing in my eyes as I allowed the darkness to consume me. I hugged my knees close to my body as I let the tears stream down my cheeks.

"Gundham......." The words barely escaped my mouth, "I... I need you. I miss you..." Sitting there alone, my mind trailed off to the last words Gundham had spoken to me. That it was unbefitting of me to stop a man from going to his death. I can't hold it in any longer, this feeling and longing to see him again. It feels like a beautiful day at the beach that immediately got rained upon.

"G-gundham..... I miss you..... I hope you do not think less of me for shedding my tears." The silence grew even thicker, it felt like it was going to..... like I was going di—

"Sonia." A deep voice vibrated through the air cutting off my thought. I instantly gazed up and looked around, but I couldn't see anyone through the dark.

"W-who is there?" I questioned softly. That voice was so familiar, so comforting, but there was no one that she could see.

"It is I, my Dark Queen." As the warmth of those words came closer from behind me I turned around to be greeted by a face that I had longed to see again.

"G-g-gundham.." I could barely get the words out before I felt my tears growing again. He knelt down next to me and placed his bandaged hand to my face.

"Have you missed me, O Madonna of Darkness." His voice was gentle as always and I felt his thumb brush away the hot tear that fell down my cheek. I felt stunned, I could not believe he was here in front of me. Without even thinking I quickly wrapped my arms around him and began to weep once again. At first I felt the hesitation of his arms, but he soon answered back with his arms pulling me close to him.

"Gundham, I do not know how you are here, but I must confess to you something most important." My voice shook slightly as I spoke.

"What is it Sonia." Hearing his voice resonate as I rested my head upon his chest made my heart melt and I felt my cheeks grow warm.

"I never had gotten the chance to tell you before you...... left. However, now that you are here again you must know." I took a deep breath as I gathered my emotions. Ever since the killing school trip had begun, Gundham was the first person who treated me more than just a princess. We bonded and our relationship grew so much in the funhouse, but that all stopped when he was executed. No more waiting. He is here again and I won't let him go, not again.

"Gundham," I quickly turned my head as I spoke, "I truly love yo—"

He was gone. Panic quickly set in, and I frantically got up as fast as I could.

"Gundham?!" I called out through the darkness as I looked around. I felt my feet take off as if they knew where to go. My calls became more and more panicked as I ran trying to find him.

"GUNDHAM! GUNDHAM! PLEASE WHERE.... are you......" I fell to my knees with tears pouring down my face. I suddenly felt hands on my shoulder again, but this time they shook me and my eyes snapped open.

"Sonia, hey are you alright? I heard you crying in your sleep, I wanted to make sure you were okay." I sat there in shock as the face of Makoto Naegi looked at me with concern. Confusion set in. Everything that happened felt so real, his voice and the warmth of his hug, but none of it was real. 

It was just a dream.
