"Drake? Are you alright? Wake up!"
Tanyra's voices awoke me from a dream. I had to mention, though. That dream almost had me to my feet. And it had....well. It was just another dream.
"Just a dream. Nothing to worry about. How did you sleep last night?"
"Well enough."
"Good. Now go and-"
"Aye, aye Captain!"
We smiled at each other, and then she left.
I rushed down to prepare breakfast, but not to forget that the house was closed before I returned, so obviously there won't be any grocery or stuff. I directly called the coffee shop I used to call before. But then I realised I had made a mistake. Big mistake. Obviously the shop owner and the delivery boy would recognize me. I called back to cancel the order, and instead waited for Tanyra to come down, so that we could go to the same place we had met.
I freezed on the spot as I heard someone call out my name. I slowly turned around, to see three girls and a boy, of my age, teary eyed, staring at me in shock.
Scarlett Black. The short tempered blonde with stunningly green eyes, and a friend from my school.
Uki Kenyon. The chrome eyed Indian girl, a black haired beauty, a rational thinker,and my best friend before death.
Cindy Travers. The smart blue eyed brunette, yet one of my friends who knew all about me. Spencer Hart. My best buddy. The black haired and blue eyed 'one of a kind' person. And the one who had taken care of my family like a brother to me, like a son to my Mom amd Dad.
They were staring at me, wide eyed, as if they are seeing a ghost.
"Don't tell my mom and dad if you still take me for a friend."
Spencer, who always agreed to whatever I said with full seriousness and who didn't like to make rash decisions nodded immediately.
A while later, we were sitting on my sofa, in my room, the door being closed. I had already explained them the best I could give away, and they had believed me. I had dropped all those part of Dreamstens and all, but still I had explained them the best I could. And they had agreed to help me. They are the best people on this earth!
A knock brought us out of our conversation. I opened the door slowly, revealing Tany, as the scared looks on my friends' faces got wiped away. I introduced her and themselves to each other. The four of them immediately pulled her for a group hug, while she looked puzzled.
My eyes wandered from them to the full length mirror in my room. Hell. I loved my grey eyes. The worst part of this whole converting deal is that some of you facial features change. I wish this had never happened to me. I would have been happy in my bubble of life. But then, I would never have met such a trusting friend like Tanyra. I would never have had a best friend like Raven. A good friend like Amyra. I can't deny I have actually begun to weigh justice and I do find Amyra at fault now, just a bit, and even Avora is at fault, god...why don't they just apologize to each other and solve matters?
I know it's not so easy. But still.
I was completely drawn out of my thoughts when someone pat me on the shoulder. I looked beck to find a confused Uki looking at me questioningly.
"Nothing."
She cast one last questioning glance at me, and then joined the others in their little introduction ceremony.
~~~Scarlett's POV~~~
"I am Tanyra. I have many friends, and one of my closest friends is that one, looking at himself in the mirror."
