I was minding my own business, in my room, when suddenly my door swung opened. It startled me. I sat up quickly & looked at the door. It was my father. I
looked at him with a confused face. He then pulled some kind of box out of a bag & threw it at me then walked away, shutting the door behind him.'Okay then.' I looked at the box then opened it. It was one of those new phone things. I hummed & took it out of the box along with the charger. I then turned it on. 'How do I work this damn thing-?' I thought to myself.
It took some time, but I slowly figured out how to use the weird device. I looked at the time then put the phone away. I yawned, got off my bed then headed downstairs. I
went to the kitchen & I got 2 piece of bread then put them in the toaster.I went back to my room. I got the phone, went back downstairs.
Soon, the toast popped up of the toaster. I put the phone down on top of the table & got a napkin, that was on top of the counter, next to the fridge.
I got the 2 pieces of toast & put them on the napkin. Then I got the butter & spread it on the toast with a plastic knife.
After I ate, I went to the living room, when my dad came in from the front door. “Thanks for the phone, Father..” I thanked him as he walked past me.I sighed then walked to the couch & sat down. I turned on the small, rectangular device to check the time. ‘10:52 AM, why do I suddenly feel tired?... I'll just take a little nap.. not like I'm doing anything anyway.’ I set an alarm for 12:30 pm on one of the apps on the device. I
laid down & starting drifting off to sleep.~~~
As I slowly woke up by someone shaking me, I felt grass poking my skin. I groaned while I pushed the person away.
“W-Wake up..!” A boy said in a soft, scared voice. I didn't recognize that voice.. I sat up quickly & stared at the unknown person.He had brown hair, with black & blonde on the front part of his hair, sky blue eyes with tears forming in them. He also had
a gray shirt with white stripes, light blue jean shorts, black gloves, & folded white socks. “Are you okay? Why are you crying?” I asked softly. “Sorry..” He suddenly apologized.“Why are you sorry? You didn't do anything wrong” I said. He stayed silent while wiping his tears away. I looked around wondering where we were. It kinda looked like some kind of park? Or grass field? I wasn't sure, it was very dark.
“Do you know where we are?” I asked the boy that was shorter than me.He shook his head, looking down at the grass. “Is everything okay?” I asked, moving closer to him & putting my right hand under his chin, lifting up his head to make him look at me.
We locked eye contact for a while. He was the first one to look away. “I-I'm fine, don't worry about me..” He said lowly. I kinda ignored that. Without thinking I hugged him. He was shocked for a bit but soon he accepted the hug.
We stayed like this for a while until I broke the hug & rested my hands on his shoulders.He slightly smiled but it faded away. “I notice you look very pale.. and fragile... are you okay?” I asked the boy. He let out a small, quiet sigh before answering.
“I'm fine, but shouldn't you be more concerned about where we are and how we got here?” I hummed while moving my eyes around.“I'd rather be more concerned about you then anything.” I said. The boy gently took my hands off his shoulders & stood up.
He then looked at his hands then arms then legs. “Something feel weird..” He said lowly. “What do you mean?” I looked at him with a confused look.
“I just feel weird.. like.. like... this isn't reality. I think we are in some kind of—”“Dream?” I cut him off. He nodded. “But it doesn't really make sense.. how are we in a dream together? And how are we like controlling ourselves? I've had a lot of dreams and I'm pretty sure I couldn't control myself” He said.
I just shrugged my shoulders before standing up.“Well how about we explore and just hangout?” I said, taking a few steps away from him until he said something.
“Shouldn't we just wake up?” The smaller boy said. “Do you how to randomly wake up from a dream?” I picked up a stick while waiting for him to answer my question. He just stayed silent & walked closer to me. “That's what I thought”
