In a haze

~~~~PHI'S POV~~~~

All the things around me seem unreal and it's making me wonder if all of this really happened.

I could wake up in the morning and all of this could have been a bad dream.......or was it a good dream?

Having Garrett look at me again, having Bryce and Grace with me again, having all of us together.

"Come on Phi!" I hear to my right and Grace waves to me, I walk towards her with heavy feet.

"Yeah, you slow poke!" Bryce teases.

They run down a dirt path towards the river and I stumble behind them on; The deep earth scent of the forest in the tree's shadow fills my noise, as the sun rays glimmer throw the parted leaves.

Small white flowers line the grassy path and butterflies flutter a crossed my steps; I can barely see Bryce and Grace who skip ahead of me. I stop walking and watch them disappear and just like them the scene changes and I take a deep breath waiting for the nightmares to begin.

"Phi." a deep voice says from behind me, turning quickly I'm faced with my father and mother; my two little brothers standing next to them, but they are grown up and their beautiful ties stand tall next to them.

I try to talk, but my voice is gone and they look at me with confused faces, but my fathers holds something more than that, worry maybe? Sadness? Agony? I don't know. everything is a in a haze and making my head spin.

I fall to my knees and cover my eyes with my hands.

"Make it stop." I whisper to myself and when I uncover my eyes I'm surrounded in black.

There is no up, no down, no right or left. There is nothing; it feels like forever as i sit there curled in a ball just staring into the darkness, but suddenly in the distance there is a light. A small sliver and I unravel myself to walk to it. My legs are numb, but i make it.

I'm engulfed into the light and I stand in front of the door that leads to Garrett's office.

The door is opened slightly, slowly I stand in front to the small opening; looking in I see Garrett at his desk with his glasses on, he pinches the bridge of his nose like he always does when he is frustrated. I smile a little to myself as he sighs and takes off his glasses, I take a step forwards, but then he smiles up to the right and when I look, there is a girl in one of his white button down shirts with nothing else on.

She smiles at him seductively, she walks over to him swaying her hips and takes a seat right in front of him. He laughs a little and then stands up, walking over to the door where I stand; he looks at me and his face drops in guilt.

"What's taking you so long?" the girl asks impatiently.

"Phi, go on. go to bed." Garrett says to me as though I'm his little sister.

"N-no." I whisper back to him.

He looks at me with wide eyes, "What?"

"I said no." my voice a little stronger, I'm tried of this; Garrett said he was with me and I need to believe that. I have to.

A loud crack sounds in the room and Both Garrett and me look down at the marble floor where a crack is growing. I look around as the whole room feels with cracks and pieces start to fall all around us. I gasp as the floor under me crumbles and I fall.

I jump awake and breath heavily.

"Your awake my dear." I look to my right and see the Vincents personal doctor sitting in a chair.

"I-" I try to talk,but instead break down coughing violently the taste of blood in my throat.

That's right. I was in the shower. Garrett and me had a fight.

I look down in front of me and come face to face with Garrett's sleeping face. His eye's a little red and puffy from.....crying?

"You shouldn't try to talk for a while my dear, you ripped your throat earlier while you where in the shower." he explains, I watch as he gets up and fixes his glasses. "I wanted to stay until you woke up, Garrett knows what to do now." he smiles at me and I feel somewhat relieved with just that simple answer.

I nod to him and he tips his hat to me as he leaves the room.

Taking in a thick, deep breath I close my eye's again for a moment; we can't keep fighting like this, but maybe this is just the way things are with us.

I run my fingers through Garrett's hair, he lets out a deep groan and holds me tighter; his hot, bare skin on mine and I feel sparks erupt inside me. This is the first time we have been this close physically and its making me blush with how chaotic my butterflies are becoming.

I try to move, but Garrett's grip is strong and unwavering.

What did he think when he found me?

I'm sure I looked pathetic and weak, I look down with that thought; I don't want to make him think I cant do anything, but then again have i done anything to prove that I'm not just some weak girl?

Garrett moves his head up and his lips caress my neck making the blush deepen and my body hot.

"Phi." he breathes and My heart takes off like a fox on a hound hunt.

Even though his voice is sleepy, its husk and sexy.

I close my eyes and try to not think about how many girls he must have done this exact same thing to, how many girls names he moaned and they've moaned his.

Slowly I calm down and think about different things, but I know that sooner or later I am going to have to tell him what's on my mind. That I need to know if there can be an us. just the two of us and no other girls.
