Craig's ~Mini's~ Perspective
* Mini's Dream *
I'm running through the woods, my 'friends' at my sides. I look to my left and see four men. I look to my right to see five men. The man next to me on my right smiles at me lovingly. "Don't worry, babe. We'll see each other soon. I can't wait to finally meet you." He says with happiness emitting from his whole body. "What do you mean? You're right here." I ask.
"You'll see... I'll be with you soon." He responds before everyone around me disappears. I slow to a stop and look around. "Guys?! Tyler?! Where are you?!" I call to which no one responds, instead a loud roar echoes throughout the woods. I quickly spin around to see an albino tiger.
Before I can register what's going on, I find myself speeding through the forest. I see a tree and change into my fox form, climbing up it. I situate myself on a branch and look down to see the tiger. I tense, but relax whenever I see the tiger change into the man I was talking to earlier.
I unwillingly change into my human form and jump down from the tree. I walk over to him and wrap my arms around his neck. He wraps his arms around my waist and pulls me close. He pulls me into a deep, passionate kiss. We separate and our noses touch. "I love you, Craig." He whispers. "I love you too, Tyler." I whisper back. "I'll see you soon..." He says before fading away.* End of Mini's Dream *
I jerk myself out of slumber and tug at my hair. "Who the fuck is Tyler?!?!" I scream. I've been having the same exact dream for three weeks now!!! What's going on! I let out a long, deep sigh and roll out of my bed. I check my alarm clock and shrug. I've woken up from this dream the same time every day... 6:00 am. I go to work at seven so this isn't too much of a problem, but it's still weird.
I get ready and put my uniform on, tucking my fox tail in my pants and throwing my hat on to cover up my ears. I fix myself a cup of coffee before making my way out of my home. I hop in my car and place my coffee in the cup holder. I start up the car and drive off. I stop at the convenient store and walk in. "The place is all yours today, Craig." My manager says, tossing me the keys to the store. "Alright, take care." I say, waving him goodbye. He waves back and drives away.
I sit behind the counter, leaning back in my chair and propping my feet up next to the cash register. I've got the whole day to myself... Like always. I swear this shit hole is going to go out of business if we don't get some more employees. The sound of the door creaking open grabs my attention.
The fuck? Someone is actually stopping at this shit hole? I direct my attention to him and almost gasp. That blue hoodie... That's one of the guys from my dream!!! He's real?!?! What does that mean about the rest of those people?! Are they real too?! He spots me and freezes.
He begins to walk towards me, but is interrupted by the sound of the door opening. Again? Really? People have really lowered their standards recently, haven't they? I look over at the door to see a man walk in wearing a black jacket with his hands stuffed in his pockets, his hood over his head so no one can see his face. Both me and the man with the blue hoodie stare at him as he walks in.
The mysterious man walks towards the counter and stands in front of me. He quickly pulls his hands out of his pockets, pointing a gun at my face. My tail stiffens and my ears perk up, moving my hat to the point it is almost completely off of my head. "You know what to do." He growls in a low, menacing voice.
I begin to shake, making my hat completely fall off. My fox ears stick out, surprising the man. I take a step back and feel around for the red button that signals the alarm. He cocks the gun, stopping me dead in my tracks. "Don't move." He orders, earning my fear-filled whimper.
I look around to see if the blue-hooded man has ran away, but I see him slowly creeping up behind the mystery man with one of our flashlights that were on sale. As I look at him, I notice something off... Raccoon ears... The man with the blue hoodie lifts the flashlight above his head and swings down onto the unsuspecting robber.
In an instant, the burglar fell to the ground, unconscious. The man with the blue hoodie looks at me and I get a good glimpse at his eyes. Electric blue... That's definitely one of the guys from my dream. "Y-You're Craig, right?" The man questions, surprising me. How does he know my name? "Yeah?" I say with confusion. The man's jaw drops to the floor. "You're real?" He says, shocked.
"What do you mean?" I ask. "I've seen you in my dreams!" He exclaims to which my eyes widened. "Yeah, I've seen you too, and eight other people!" I shout in shock. "Yeah! The fuck?" He states. "W-What do you think about the rest of them?" I question. "The rest of the guys? Maybe they're real too!!!" The man yells excitedly.
I smile, but tense when I realize something. He knew who I am, maybe he knows Tyler too. "Hey. Uh, do you know who Tyler is?" I ask. "Tyler? I do in my dream. Why?" The man questions. "I-I honestly don't know why... He just stuck out to me more." I say truthfully. "Oh. Someone in my dreams stick out to me too, but it's not Tyler." He says dreamily. He sounds like a little school girl with a crush! Speaking of him... Who is he? "Hey, uh, what's your name?" I ask with curiosity lacing my words. "I'm Jonathan!"Hi! This is my first book, so please tell me how you feel about it!
