Lost In A Dream

Where's Stacey?

I met Stacey in the kitchen shortly after I woke up, and she had made me lunch. Even though it was a little late to have lunch we didn't care, we were both hungry. That's one thing I love about Stacey is she knows how to cook. Weather it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner. She's a great cook!

"Here's a sandwich Drew, and some chips with lemonade" Stacey says with a smile.

"Thanks sweetheart, I appreciate it. Quick question, how did you sleep?" I said with a nervous voice.

She looked down for a second, I could see she was thinking about something, but she didn't have the courage to say it.

"Something wrong baby?" I said after a few seconds pass by. She looked up at me, smiled, and continued saying...

"It was so nice, and relaxing! Why do you ask?"

I didn't believe her. I felt like she had the same dream I had, or maybe she had a dream similar to mine. She just had this weird look on her face, and I didn't believe her at all. I smiled back at her, and said...

"Just making sure my beautiful girl had a good sleep, that's all" I said nicely.

I still didn't know weather or not I should tell her about the dream I had. I just felt like if I had told her what I dreamt about I would have a burden lifted off my chest. Than again I didn't want to scare her, knowing she has anxiety she would get all paranoid.
I decided to stay quiet about it...

Anyways I decided to change the subject, especially since I finally had chose a place to go to. "Hey babe I actually have a place we can go to now! How about we..." I was interrupted by her.

"How about we don't go anywhere now. I don't feel good, I just want to stay home tomorrow." She said with a distilled look on her face.

"Why? What's wrong? I know something's up babe. Tell me now please" I said desperately.

She just sighed, and looked down once again. I wanted to keep asking her to tell me but I didn't want to force her. I rubbed her back while she was distressed. She look back up at me, and she had a tear drop down your face. I was still very confused as to what was going on with her. As I was about to ask her again she finally spoke up.

"I had, a...very, strange.........dream..." she said with a scared, nervous, and stressed voice.
"I don't want to go into detail, but basically, I lost you, and I couldn't find you. We were in the woods, it was snowy, and it was so cold. I felt like I was going crazy because I kept seeing footprints in the snow, But then they would disappear. I was about to give up on finding you, until I finally saw this man. He was walking towards me, but it was so hard to see him because of the snow coming down faster and faster. I was so happy though because he was approaching fast. Than he got closer, and I could tell this man, wasn't my man. He looked down at me, looked into my eyes with his blackened dark face, and laughed. I was so confused and scared now. I couldn't even ask who he was because I was too scared. Then as I was about to pass out, he spoke."

"You and Drew, such a lovely couple. It's sad you don't exist though." He said with a smooth, creepy voice.

"Don't exist? What...are, you...you......talking about?" I said clenching my teeth as I was shivering.

"When Drew realizes your all apart of his imagination he will deny himself, and that's when I'll drive him crazy. Until, until he can't take it no more." He said deviously.

I couldn't take it anymore, I passed out because it was too much to take in. Then I woke up, and I saw you were still sleeping, so I went to the bathroom to wash my face and just relax. I just can't stop thinking about the man. I know it was a dream Drew, but I've had actual scary nightmares before. This is a whole new level though, and I still can't understand who that man was. I'm sorry but I don't want to go on a trip tomorrow, after having that nightmare. Let's just stay home, and maybe watch some Netflix or something to take our minds off this stuff.

I thought to myself, this is unreal. Why did Stacey have the same dream I had? Did this mean something? What did the creepy guy mean when he said "You don't exist?" She was real, was she? I looked at Stacey, she had her head down still. I was so confused, I couldn't get over the fact that we both saw that same, creepy man. How about you go home for now Stacey, I need some time alone, I'm sorry.

"Oh, ok. If you need time alone I understand. Been a weird day, well call me when you feel better baby" she said with a sweet, but concerned voice.

I didn't say anything back, I still couldn't get over the fact that man had said "You don't exist." What did he mean by that! I was starting to second guess myself. Is Stacey even real? No...it was just a dream, just a crazy, fucked up dream. I grabbed a bottle of water, drank some, and than poured some on my face to try to get me to snap out of my thoughts. It didn't work though, I felt like I was going crazy. All these thoughts going on in my head. I felt like they were telling me something, perhaps helping me realize something. I was determined to find out what was going on, I wanted to do some research. See if anyone else has had the same thing that has happened to me. I'll find out who this man is, I thought to myself.
