Paralysis?

I was stuck, bound in place, my whole body wouldn't move even if I demanded it, I couldn't scream,  I couldn't even struggle, all I could feel was these silken sheets in my hands, I would struggle in this darkness, trying to find away to overcome it or whatever force I was under, The shapes within the darkness moved, I was in my bedroom, I thrashed my head around as much as I could my body unwilling to move from it's position, was this sleep paralysis? Lying there I couldn't feel anything at the moment, why were my senses so.. dulled? 

I couldn't shake myself off this feeling, it was like a bad hangover, nothing was working for me, my body was weak, I was struggling to even get up, everything started to return to me, my vision of the room, everything was black, but there was a mass sitting on my stomach, was this a sleep paralysis demon? I would look up at it my whole body tensing as I would start to freak out I don't know how much time had passed until it disappeared and slowly my body seemed to listen once more, I'd shoot it in bed looking around my room, that same fucking moment.. this happens most of the time..

I would take a deep breath, it was 5am, ugh, what a shit time to wake up, I would sigh deeply moving to sit on the edge of my bed before getting up, I was only wearing a sports bra and loose fitting shorts. Looking around my room I would grab what I wear for when I run, deciding I may as well do some fitness since I'm up so early, after managing to pull my clothing on, tying my hair up and then looking up at the ceiling before leaving my house and locking the door, there was people running out as well, seems this time was like happy hour for runners, just before work, just before school, all sorts.

I would jog away from my place, I was visibly unknowing of where I would be going but when I looked up I would be in the park, it was pretty local especially to the joggers and their dogs if they bring them with them. Looking around I would slow my jogging to a walk, not to calm down but to give myself a small break, I would cough a few times as my body slowly relax looking up at the sky and before I knew it I'd crash into someone, stumbling a little I'd look around before seeing them on the floor.

I'd flinch before relaxing, looking at them, they were wearing a mask, were they jogging or what? Jesus.. it's not some pure black mask, it had these little sakura blossoms on it, I would offer my hand out looking at the person before they took my hand I would gulp a little looking into their eyes, before I would tense as she removed her mask, Maria?! Since when did she wear stuff like this?!

"Hey, sorry for running into you, usually I have my eyes more open!" She smiled softly at me before her eyes would widen, she just realised who I was, I'd look at her and smiled softly tilting my head a little "it's alright, don't worry, I was spacing out anyway. I didn't even realise I was jogging here until I looked up earlier." I would rub the back of my neck, looking at her as she would smile softly and nodded in understanding "it's always so beautiful at this time of day" she would giggle softly as she looked around.

Suddenly I would remember our kiss a deep blush spreading over my face before I'd shake my head just watching her glance around, Maria really was pretty.. but no wonder she's kept such a figure, she runs and is one of the netball leaders at our academy, there's two teams, she's our away team, so she's usually gone the most, but honestly.. I can see why she kept such a figure. I would look up into the sky with her, before I would hear her chuckle, I'd look down at her and tilted my head.

"Sorry, sorry, I shouldn't chuckle but did you know that you have a rip in your jacket? Right here." she would point at my lower ribs, her fingertip just barely grazing my skin beneath it, my whole body would shiver as I quickly moved my hands to her arms, swallowing the lump in my throat. She'd look up at me with worry and swallowed hard "S-Sorry, I shouldn't have done that, I just wanted to point it out-" I'd place a soft kiss on her forehead, looking into her eyes and gulping after "stop worrying, I don't mind, was I caught off guard by the touch? Just a little, but hey, we're both girls and you were helping another girl out."

She would smile at my words seeming to relax at them, before she stretched her arms over her head "wanna jog back home together? I live not far away from you so we can jog back and chat." She chuckled softly as she tilted her head with a smile I would look up into her eyes and nodded before we would start jogging, we would talk together about little things, a few different things, but when we got to mine we would look at one another before she shrugged and would look at me "right! I'll go home, shower and change and then meet you here, we can then walk together, how does that sound?"

I tilted my head before smiling and nodding a soft chuckle passing my lips "let's do it!" I would chuckle, she would start jogging ahead, heading home while I walked to my door, unlocked it and then walked in closing the door behind me, after peeling myself out my sports wear I'd go for a shower, washing up and washing my hair, massaging the shampoo into my scalp before I then finish my shower and dry off, deciding to blow dry my hair instead of air dry it, I would look at my outfit thinking it over a few times before just getting dressed and grabbing what I needed for the day and walking out.
