My Head When I Dream

La La Land

Somehow, I knew those trees would come to life and try and take our lives. But, I didn't know why I had to venture into that abandoned garden with those two friends.

Then, I came home and it were Priests and Laurels all older than me, like Justin and Anna and that one guy who I'm visualizing right now but unable to put a name to a face.

We needed to get into groups of four. Different groups tried to pull Justin one way or another, but he sat close beside me and brother Dottl began his teasing of us both. I was flattered, actually more than that. Could we have been dating? I'm almost positive.

Then came to my mind the inquiry from yesterday at mutual about the boys. Anna's voice was prominent: I don't like any of the Priests. Then Brother Dottl came to me, explaining that something had happened to Justin. With his laptop with him, he searched for a video and came the confession.

"Hey, what happened last night?"

"She has a baby... Emily Sud. And I hit it off with her last night."

The camera was on a Justin I didn't recognize. His cheeks were red and slightly swollen, his hair though the same bleach blonde. He was bobbing his head around, and I think he mentioned hitting it as he laid there, tucked away in a bed like mine, just as cluttered.

The cameraman brought the focus over to his foot now, a swollen sight much like Morgan's.

"What happened here?"

I heard Justin say, "Oh," but never finishing.

The scene changed to the wall in Letters to Juliet and Justin frantically trying to find this "Emily Sud."

Suddenly now, I'm witnessing the rehearsal of a play. It's strange, and I wish I could explain what was happening here; the stage was much like the high school's, but building itself were more the size of the elementary's and the seats the same as in a movie theater. I remember precisely the blue and silver make up of a person, and a mirror, on wheels like the props the dance program has, and a beam of white wood across the diagonal. A prop of some sort was placed on the top and bottom of the diagonal.

Then Maica began to become fitted in a Mad Hatter costume, and stole the entire rehearsal. There were two other Hatters, a male and female. The male was almost offended by Maica's presence and the female was just all over the place. At the end of the number, Maica twirled perfectly off the stage while the other two clumsily scrambled to get off. The other two were confused and were trying to find fault with my sister's performance, but there was nothing; the fault was theirs.

Ethan, at one point, strolled in and then walked out. Then I saw Liam out the door, watching intently. I waved and someone from the front row stood to go greet him. I stood up and headed in that direction also, however I played it off when I got there and simply glance over to the right towards other cars instead of the bus stop located there on my left. Then Justin came to mind again, when I gazed over there. Would he be coming back?

Then I quickly turned to check the bus and Liam and some others were tucked away, partially out of my view. I knew better than to go out over there, since the thought of him became so quickly replaced.
