GOING BACK into my own little world, something seemed....different. The sky didn't have tears crying out of their puffiness. And the sky itself wasn't even as dark as usual.
There was at least three cars parked on the side of the road with their headlight shining on. The buildings that were cracked and out of shape were rebuilt and not as broken, but were still dark from the lack of sunlight.
Some people passed by that I didn't recognize.... Which was weird cause I'm the owner of this little world, shouldn't I be the one in control of it?
I started to walk down the sidewalk, scanning my eyes around at every little thing that came my way. Until I figured out why this was happening... Why everything was out of place...
I saw... Ethan, standing there next to one of the dimmed city lights. How did he even get here?
But it was weird because.... I don't even know what Ethan looks like... Yet I could sense that it was him. So I gathering up my lacking of encouragement and cleared my throat.
"Ethan?" I said silently.
He flashes his head up with wide eyes and stares at me, almost to my very heart and soul. But that wasn't the weird part.... The weird part is that he just continued to stare, his eyes were on me and nothing else.
His body was stiff and his eyelids rarely came down to blink. It eventually started to creep me out and I ran past him. But I felt his eyes still on me... I wanted to get away from him... Far away.
So, I sped up my running, splashing my black boots in the dark puddles of rain. I slammed my eyes shut and quickened up my running, until... I hit something. Which shot me down onto my back.
I groan from the pain, yes pain in my own dream world... I slowly peel my eyes open to see a girl I didn't recognize. She had ice blue eyes with brown short hair that went to her shoulders. It was extremely straight but it was shiny as well... She wore a white dress that went right above her knees and black and white converse.
"S-sorry." I stuttered, standing up from the ground and trying to gather up the damp water that soaked up my jacket. I look back up at the girl to see that she was the same way as Ethan. Just....staring...
I slowly start to step away before walking past her, but...she stopped me. She tightly grips onto my wrist hardly, making me yelp slightly. "Why do you think you can talk to Ethan?" She asked in an boring type of voice.
"W-what are you talking about?" I ask.
"Why do you think you can get along with Ethan?" She asks, tightening her grip.
"S-stop." I winced silently, "You're hurting me." I start to tug at her hand that was attached onto my wrist, but she doesn't flinch.
"Stay away from Ethan." She said even more serious than the first few times, "Nobody cares about you... So do me a favor and leave."
My eyes widen as she throws down my arm and kept on walking in the direction she was facing in.
That was....different. I've never had to experience someone in my own world go against me like that... Or threaten me...to be honest...
So, I did what they did to me. Stared.
I watched as the girl walked past me and right back to Ethan. She flashes her head back with a huge smirk that stretched scarcely. It almost scared me how evilly she smiled at me. She then turns back around and wraps her arms around Ethan from behind.
I really don't understand what she's getting at, it's almost like she thinks I like Ethan. I don't even know him, not all that much that is...
Without hesitation, I turn back around and start walking in the opposite direction of the girl and Ethan, I really didn't want to start a riot in my own little world. I wouldn't want anything bad to happen in a place that I go to when I'm feeling down...
I slowly brought my head up to see the first thing that has never been there: the moon.
It shone so brightly in the sky with the clouds surrounding it. But for some reason, when I looked at this new amazing sight.... It almost made me feel sad. The moon just hung out in the dark sky all alone and by itself.
Almost like how I wish I could be...
