I REMEMBER

I like to read books about soul mates, it gives me hope that one day i'll find mine in this chaotic world. I haven't really ever had a serious relationship and to be honest, the only thing keeping my faith are these books. As i close my most recent book. I hold it to my chest, i was tired of being alone, i was ready to find my one amd only.'come find me' i whisper before i

let sleep take over me.

I was walking into a classroom, I could tell it was a dream but I didn't care. I was late for math class and I looked around at the people and my heart felt like it skipped a beat once I spotted a guy at the other side of the room. He had blonde shaggy hair, blue eyes, and pale skin. He was slouching in his chair. Memories of him started comming back and I remembered he was someone I met in the past. I couldn't tell if I had met him in a previous dream or in real life but I didn't care, the memories were sweet and made me smile. I searched for a seat and surprisingly there was one close to him.

I Couldn't help but glance over at him alot, I couldn't remember his name and I was dying to know if he was real. The more I thought about it the more I missed him, the thought was odd to me because for all I knew, he was just part of my dream.

When the bell rang, I was suddenly running down the stairs with a girl I assumed was my friend. When I looked around it looked like I was at a high school I didn't go to but remembered. When we made it down the stairs she asked me if I remembered a 'dominik'. I thought about it and I kept picturing my exs' little brother but his name was Elijah. She asked me again and frustrated that I couldn't remember, I told her yes, she looked at me for a second than continued to pull me towards our next class "P.E."

It was outside today, everyone looked hot but I couldn't feel the heat. I lost my friend so I looked for the boy I met earlier. It felt like hours that I searched but I couldn't find him. I felt lost without him but I couldn't figure out why he had such an effect on me. I could feel reality pulling me back from my dream and before I knew it I was back on the couch.

~~~~~~~~

My eyes flutter open to a sideways world. Disoriented I sat up and wiped the sleep fromm my eyes. I try to recall my dream and it all comes rushing back to me, it felt so real, the remnants of the longing I felt in my dream still lingered in my heart. I pushed it aside, feeling stupid that I had fallen for a dream. As if on cue it all came back to me. I remembered meeting the boy before, maybe a year ago, I smile, 'so I have met him', I didn't feel as stupid now and as I thought about it some more, I realized, his name was Dominik.

I chuckle a little realizing that was who the girl was talking about. I stood up and walked over to my bathroom. I couldn't get that dream out of my head. 'why had I felt so lost without him?' I thought as I brushed my teeth, I always felt like dreams had hidden meanings and I just couldn't figure out what this one was, I hadn't seen that guy in ages. A second later, I heard the annoying ring of my door bell, I check my watch, '830 am' 'who could possibly be at my door this early. I walk towards the door, taking my time. Opening the door i prepared to tell who ever was at the door off about ringing someones door bell this early but before i could get a word out i looked at the person and my heart nearly stopped. i just stood there lost in his beautiful blue eyes.

"i found you." Dominik said smiling.
