Are you there?

Real or not?

Hello friend!

Joey couldn't breath. Was his dream real or is he still dreaming? Joey finally got the air to say something to Daniel.

J-You're here?
D-I'm only here because you want me to be.
J-I thought you were a dream..
D-Sometimes the best dreams become reality.
J-I've been so lonely and now your here!
D-I promise you will never be lonely again!
J-Daniel am I going crazy?
D-Maybe?
J-I can't believe I'm talking to my imaginary friend!? I am crazy! I'm 23!.... Your not real Daniel you can't make me not be alone! I will always be alone!
D-No Joey I'm here! Your not alone.
J-Yes I am and when I close my eyes you will be gone!

Joey closed his eyes tightly and when he opened them Daniel was gone. The letter and rose were gone to. A single tear fell from Joey's face as he fell to his knees. Joey thought to himself, " He's not real Joey your crazy to think he is!" As Joey repeated "He's not real, He's not real" in his head the more tears fell from his eyes. The more he remembered he was alone the more he wanted to not be alive......

When Joey finally stopped crying he looked at the time. As he saw 1pm on the digital clock he realized it was time to head to work. So he did.

**Night 3rd person**
When Joey finally arrived home from a distracting day at work he plopped on the coach and engulfed his mind in thought. As he was deep in thought only one thing was crossing his mind. Daniel Preda.

"Why is he effecting me so much? He's not real.... But I wish he was.." As Joey thought to himself he had a great idea! Even though it was childish and probably stupid he did it anyway. Joey sprinted to the window in the back of his dinning room and looked up at the stars.

He couldn't get a good look so he swung open the door leading to the back yard. As he walked out into the chilling December air he looked up. He searched the sky for the perfect star. Then he saw it! The North Star shining brightly in the night sky. It glimmered in Joey's emerald green eyes. He took one last look at the star and closed his eyes.

He started to wish as hard as he could on the single star. He hadn't done this since he was a young child but he didn't care. He was alone he needed something, someone, no he needed ....Daniel. When Joey finally stopped wishing after about an hour he opened his eyes and slowly walked inside. He sluggishly walked up the stairs to his empty, cold room to go to sleep alone once again.

Joey changed into night clothing and slid into his cold covers. He laid his head lightly on his flattened pillow as he pulled his knees up to his chest. He wrapped his arms around his knees.

He blankly starred at his wall like he did every night till he finally fell into the darkness of sleep.
That night Joey dreamed of Daniel. He dreamed of how his life would be with him. He wanted Daniel so bad.

**Morning 3rd person**

As Joey woke up his bed wasn't cold like the night before. It was warm and cozy. When he looked down he saw a strong arm wrapped around him holding him close. A smile slowly appeared on Joey's face for the first time in months.

Joey felt safe, Joey felt comfort. Joey snuggled into the warm body behind him as he fell back to sleep.
