I stare at my ceiling as I feel my chest going up and down faster than before.
I'm awake
I open my eyes and I slowly sit up to look around. It's night time. I must have slept through the entire afternoon.
I stand up and look at the time. 21:37/9:37PM. I head towards my door and open it. Nobody is home. That means... the house is mine!
I jump around happily thinking about the things I should do. I decided to take a hot bath. It's been so long since I could take one unbothered.
I head back to my room to get my pajamas and rush to the bathroom. I go in, I close the bathroom door and lock it just in case. I start to fill up the bathtub with warm water while sitting at the edge of the bathtub waiting for it to be completely filled.
While I wait I slowly take off the pieces of clothing covering my body. When the bathtub reached my wished amount of water I slowly sit into it.
As I was about to relax I suddenly felt like something is wrong. The water doesn't really feel warm... at all.
I sit up to add some more warm water but still nothing... the water doesn't really feel like anything.
...
?
...
!
"I get it now! I'm dreaming" I say it out loud as I look around my surroundings. I splash the water a little, playing with it. Just as I was about to relax again, a voice really similar to mine begins to speak.
"You are indeed" I look around. I could pinky swear I just heard my own voice talking. I look around I discover a black creature with a smoking aura.
I take a good glance at it before I say "Wow so scaryyyyy oh noooo" I put my hands on my mouth, pretending to be scared, mocking whatever the fuck this creature is
The creature sighs, probably feeling disrespected "Do you even know what I am?" It says, adding a little smile to it
It's question got my attention. I was thinking for a few seconds. "The real question is, do I need to know?" The creature seemed a bit suprised at my response
Soon enough it starts speaking again "Im corruption. The one summoned by dark magic?"
"Oh okay" I reply as an instant, not really caring.
It sighs again. I'm clearly getting on its nerves. "Why are you so unbothered" it says, but it doesn't sound mad. It sounds... disappointed
I give it a 'is this bitch dumb' look then I take a breath to answer "I never practiced dark magic" I was trying my best to explain myself
Suddenly I got a brilliant idea... if it's a dream, I can just drown myself and wake up. There's no way this is real.
"Massive or long lasting negative toughts can generate black magic overtime. You're either evil or depressed well either way I'm here which means you went overboard" While explaining it notices my sudden action.
"Thats not gonna work. This isn't specifically a dream. It's more a hallucination." It says in a rather worried tone, indicating for me to sit up
I sit back up, coughing some water out. I take another glance at it, waiting for it to say something. After a while of waiting it came clear to me that it's waiting for me to continue the conversation.
"So whats gonna happen now?" I ask in a rather unbothered tone. If my life were to be taken here I wouldn't be bothered.
It thinks for a while but eventually it takes a breath and starts to speak "Originally I was going to possess you but... you're fun" It says, smiling at me gently
"I feel so special all of sudden" I answer with an obvious sarcastic voice, looking at it with a big smile "So what now?"
"Im gonna give you a choice." It opens one of her arms and says "you let me possess you and I grant you the power to get revenge" then it opens her other arm and says "or you decline but I stay in your dreams"
I didnt even think for a second before I declined "I still have some self respect left"
It smiled, looking at me with a proud stare "Good to know" after it was done talking it sat down next to the bathtub
As I was bathing myself I was thinking for a while when I realized something. "I get it now... you're lonely"
It looks up to me as the smoking aura starts to clear a bit "Perhaps I am"
