The first time Clare and Sally met were outside a french classroom in year 7. Clare being both stubborn and lazy was standing up in the rain and reading, an umbrella balanced on her shoulders. It might sound funny but it didn't feel funny in real-life. It takes strong shoulder muscles and lots of practice to balance a umbrella on your shoulders while reading a book. A slightly admirable feat, though I admit it is a stupid idea if you don't want to build up muscles by your shoulder blades. Also, when Sally saw this she immediately thought Clare was a slightly idiotic but interesting person.
Sally approached Clare with the type of curiosity I've never again seen in my now seemingly uncountable centuries of spectating. What do I do for a living? Something I like to call spectating and I'm a storyteller on the side. Not that I get paid for either of that, when you exist in a similar manner as I do, all you can do is narrate (to keep your sanity) or watch.
Maybe you could enter dreams and narrate, freak the dreamers out by trying to converse with them, they usually forget though so you could bother the same person/people and relish the feeling of being forgotten. What's the point of crying over spilt milk? You can't give me an answer, I'm here to narrate not converse as much as I'ed rather have it the other way.
Back to story, so I was watching Clare read. No, I was actually reading the book Clare had in her hands. She didn't notice me as this was not a dream, they can actually see me in dreams and I can actually interact with the surrounding. In the more real plane of existence I'm less real then them, I'm more like a ghost but I know I'm not a ghost. Don't ask how, don't ask why. Just read or listen, I think you might find their story fun.
Clare gets spooked, the book falls, Sally catches it before it gets wet and then Clare was glaring at Sally with more anger that that she had shown to the person who purposely murdered her cat. The book was borrowed from the library and would have cost 15 pounds to replace. Sally could tell that it would be hard to get on Clare's good side now. I'll leave you a cliffhanger on how Sally managed to reconcile with Clare.
