One Faithful Day

Behind the mask of Logan

Ch16.

Logan's POV

(Dream)

"What's up dude?" Asked Jason. I was standing at my locker. I shut it and turned to Jason.

"Nothin much man."

"Cool, hey I gots to get to class. See ya later!" He said running off. I waved and looked back forward. Just then Alexa walked by. Wait, WHAT?! Didn't she transfer schools or something? She smiled at me and then rounded the corner. I went to go talk to her but I tripped and fell face first. I looked around me and I was at a different part of school. I looked up and saw Alexa giggling. Wait, I thought she left?

"Here, ya need some help?" She reached out her hand. I grabbed hold of it and she helped me up.

"Thanks." I said smiling.

"Welcome." She smiled and took off forward, which was the way my back was facing. I turned around but I was now in the meadow behind school. I looked towards the forest and saw Alexa sitting beside a tree looking very upset. I ran over to her.

"Hey, hey. It's ok, what's wrong?" I asked.

"I was being bullied and th-they started to form a circle and p-pushing me around." And she just stayed quiet. I crouched down and put my arms around her. She stiffened at first but then she relaxed and just sighed. I would've expected her to cry but, eh, I'll let it slide. I let go after 5 minutes and she said thank you. I turned around and I was in school again. I turned my head and Alexa was standing there by my side.

"What's wrong?" She asked.

"Uh, nothin." I looked at the clock. "I'll meet ya at class in 5 I need to stop by my locker." She shrugged.

"Hm, ok. Whatever." She walked off. I rounded the corner only to find myself in my house. I looked at my couch and there sat Alexa. Ok this is weird. She turned to face me.

"Are ya gonna just stand there like a retard or actually sit and watch the movie?" She asked.

"Um, let me go get popcorn." I walked over to my kitchen door but when I walked in I saw me and her on our first date. I turned left and saw the both of us on our 5th date. I turned around and saw me introducing the gang to her. I kept turning and each time I did I saw a memory of me and Alexa. I turned one final time and that's when I saw the break up. She looked so... angry, at me. I walked up to the other me and reached out only to see my hand swipe through his head.

"No, dude don't let her get away!" I screamed but he didn't listen. Just stood there. I turned around to look away only face a very upset looking Alexa. She shook her head at me and walked away. I dropped to my knees and cried and cried and cried. When I looked up it was all black. I tried roaming around but it was like the blackness was endless.

"This is my life with out her. Nothing." I said to myself.

(Dream ended)

I gasped and sat up in my bed. I was all sweaty and my face was drenched in tears. I looked over at Alexa's former balcony and sighed. I wish I could just talk to her one more time. I looked down at my lap and started to cry... again. I stayed like that for half an hour and then I sobered up. That's when I heard the doorbell ring. Great, a visitor, whoopie! NOT! I got dressed and headed towards the door.

"Coming!" I opened the door and passed out on the floor.

An hour later I awoke with an ice pack on my head. I removed the pack and looked over. That's when I saw Alexa again. Oh shit! It wasn't a dream! I went bug eyed.

"You aren't gonna pass out again are you?"she asked. My eyes are still bugging out of my head. "Um... Logan? You ok there?" I gulped and then blinked a few times. Nope not gone. She's actually here. Breathe, Logan, breathe!
