Der Doppelganger

Kapitel 1

I was floating. I knew I was floating, but I hadn't a clue where. My eyes would not open. All I had saw was black the entire time. I heard screams and moaning. I remember asking myself if it was my own. Then again I had felt no pain. I felt my heart flutter down, until it was almost nothing. I could now see, but what I saw was indescribable. I looked down upon my self, covered in ash and blood. Normally ones heart would beat out of their chest, but I- I smiled. I knew where I was bound, and I was ready for it. As for my shadow self, Im not so sure.

"Alice! Hurry Up!" Matt yelled with his hands over his eyes.

"Okay, how about this one?" I said pulling his hands down and making him look at my dress.

"Beautiful."

I scoffed, " You've said that about everyone."

He smiled and looked up at me over his glasses. "It's because you make every single one look amazing."

I chuckled and gave his arm a small punch.

"Owe!" he whined, over dramatically clutching his shoulder.

I rolled my eyes at his silliness.

Matt... My crush since 4th grade, were seniors now and I'm finally dating him. Notice how I said 'Finally.' He was so damn oblivious when I told him I liked him back in 10th grade, Im honestly still wondering how he made it to 12th.

"Card?" The cashier asked.

I blinked once then ruffled in my purse to get my visa.

"Sorry 'bout that." I said to the stuck up lady.

She snarled her nose as she handed me my prom dress in a fancy bag that said 'Lienna Gowns.' To much of a fancy name if you ask me, considering the shop was in the middle of a disgusting Mall

I walked out of the shop with Matt's hand interlocked in mine.

"Where to now, babe?" Matt smiled to me squeezing my hand a little.

Babe...I love that word. Especially when the word is used to express affection towards me. Did that sound too needy?

I smiled back to him, "Food!" I said in my squeaky-high, embarrassing voice.

Matt busted out laughing. Bad move.

I punched him square in his finely chiseled chest, it kind of hurt my hand to tell you the truth. I then put on my best mad face and released his hand.

"Babe! Come on now!" He called to me, knowing I couldn't resist being called that.

I turned around, "What." I said trying not to smile, but obviously failing.

He cupped my face in his hands, "I love you." He said kissing me.

I reacted completely cool, but in my head... I was jumping somersaults. He said he loved me and he even kissed me! Calm down, Matt, theres only so much one girl heart can handle.

"I- I love you too." I said stuttering after the long, passionate kissed we shared.

He flashed that gorgeous smile that always made me melt and interlocked our hands again.

Honestly...I love him... Reality, how long will this all last?

I'm getting stronger the more my shadow self falls in love. The more love the more power. Love is disgusting like that. I am bound to this lovesick fool and I can do nothing about it. I am stuck here, on this wretched 'other side'. I do sometimes catch myself wishing I could be like the fool I am bound to, then I remember my time will come soon. Lovely things come to those who will wait. Don't get to comfortable shadow self, all hell is surely near.

I'm going to leave off here to build the suspense... Continue or nah?
