Bold Sun & The Little Moon

Alone

Chelsea's (POV)
Heat, was the last thing I remember feeling before I fell asleep.
When I hopped on Jake's back I was embraced with warmth. It surprised me how one person could be warm.
As I fell asleep I had a dream that felt so real.
I sat on the curb leaning against Jake, everything was quiet and calm.
I turned to look at Jake but couldn't move my body.
Jake who I was resting on stood up and walked away.
I yelled out for him to stop and stay but he kept walking.
So I sat there on the curb paralyzed.
"Don't leave me alone please!"
All of a sudden the street lights began to go out.
Nonono not the dark please! I wanted to run away.
All the street lights turned off except the one I was under.
Thank god I thought to myself. I decided I should at least attempt to get up and this time my body did.
I stood up and looked down both dark paths.
Maybe of I wait they will turn back on?
So I waited and waited but still nothing. I decided that maybe it would turn on to my command.
"Abra cadabra!"I yelled while making wierd gestures with my hands.
"Bibbity bobbity!" I attempted again.
"Blah blah blah turn on!" I became frustrated and stomped my foot.
"Turn on you stupid idiots!" I screamed.
I caught a glimpse of light to my left.
"Are you kidding me."I whispered to myself.
I turned to face the light. I noticed a tall figure of a man underneath it. My body began to walk on its own.
"Hold up stop!" I tried to stop myself
My body started to jog to the figure.
As I got closer I began to realize who that figure was. The man who will forever haunt me the rest of my life.
"Stop! No! I don't want to go to him!". I looked down at my body and noticed it had changed, it was small like a childs. My grown clothes were replaced with a familiar little blue dress and brown dress shoes.
I looked up and noticed that the figure now had his arms out as if he was welcoming me.
In acceptance, my body forcefully did the same.
"No! No! I hate you! Dont come near me please!" I began to sob.
I drew closer to him. My heavy sobs began to hurt my chest. My body finally reached the figure and stopped before him. He stared down at me. He was always looking down at me. No respect for me...No love.
"Don't touch me." I whimpered.
Suprisingly The figure knelt down and placed his hand on the top of my head.
The same warmth filled me. Before realizing I could move again my body hugged the figure.
Warmth..I need more warmth...
I held on to the figure tight so he wouldn't disappear.
"Please don't leave me again." I cried. I couldn't stand being alone anymore, but It seemed my words didn't reach the figure.
The light we were under began to give out. The figure slowly began to dissolve with the fading light.
I held the figure tight "No!No! I don't want to be alone anymore! Please!".
More of the figure dissolved. My embrace became loose I attempted to grab what I could hold but the figure was slipping out of my fingers, I grabbed at the airport hoping if I could grab one little thing he would come back and just like that...the light and figure were gone.
I fell to my knees and wailed. I brung my hands to my eyes to cover up the tears. I screamed his name over, and over again. I knew he wasn't going to come back. Why would he? He had no reason to stay or take care of me. Mother was his only connection with me. So what if I was his? It didn't matter not in the slightest.
My body ached all over. I was alone again. The darkness clawed at me, trying to rip everything I had away from me. There's nothing in the dark, and to the dark I was nothing.
Crying or screaming wouldn't help any, but I continued anyways.
I sat there letting the dark consume me and everything I had.
"I'm sorry Chelsea" a voice said.
Two arms came from behind me and hugged me.
It wasn't the same warmth as the figure. This was different. It was soft, joyful, and safe.
I turned my head to face the figure.
It was a bright light...Like a star.
Pasted on this star was a kind smile. Suddenly I realized the one thing the darkness couldn't consume.
The Bold sun and the little moon.
Even if they were far apart or lonely.
They still lit up each other's life.
I let the warm light consume me and take me to another place. As it was the sun's turn to sleep I wished it a goodnight
"Night Jake bake."
