Introduction..

-

Him. His voice. He snuck up from behind and gently stroked my hair; "be mine?" he whispered.

My heart pounded faster than ever. Was my chest going to explode?

It was like a dream that I've been waiting to come true..

I turn my back only to see no one there. I searched all and over to find him; no where. Tears peaked from the corners of my eyes and slowly ran down my cheeks. I screamed out for him to hear me.

"Where are you?"

I continued walking through the deserted streets, searching through and around surrounding buildings.

"Matthew, Matt-."

My voice weakened. I threw my self onto the floor and sat there. "What's left to continue?" Head in my hands, I began to cry. I began to give up on this love that I thought would work.

I stared at the clock. Second hand ticked faster and I cried harder. I felt my heart slowly cracking; piece by piece.

"Clai-" a voice in the distance echoed. I immediately stood up and ran towards the sound coming from behind. Suddenly the buildings were disappearing, changing to a never ending road. White fog rose higher and higher, the closer I came.

There the shadow stood. I wasn't close enough to see who. In my heart, I knew it was him. I ran to him, but I was far. Too far. I ran even faster. One blink and I was right in front of him. I reached my arm out, but slowly his figure faded. "Matthew!" I yelled. "Matthew!"

An alarm went off, almost like a fire alarm. My heart suddenly felt like it was falling; tilting actually. Every movement led me closer to falling off the edge. I didn't even make the slightest nudge. Slowly struggling, I took another breath..

I fell; screamed for my life.

-

My eyes open; immediately I scan my surroundings, only to find myself in my bedroom. I fell off my bed. It was only a dream. My heart pounding lighter the second, I throw my hand onto my phone above the nightstand, and turned my alarm off.

It was all fake. It was just a dream.

I glance at my phone,
"Thursday, August 23rd, 5:22a.m."

First day of school. I sigh as I struggle to get off the wooden floor. Music on, I head for the washroom; splash my face with a handful of cold water to wake me up, and brush my teeth. I hum and sing a muffled melody between my lips.

I open my front curtains allowing light in my room and pull out a pair of black skinnies, a loose tee, and an over-sized cardigan from the dresser.

Hair in a bun, I run down stairs to grab a cup of coffee and a granola bar. I snatch my backpack and car keys from the coffee table and drive to school, high school.

I prepare myself as I enter the gates of hell in which I remain a nobody for one last year.
