I'll Meet You In My Dreams

Nightmare

 Marco ran through his house, flinging open any door preventing him from his goal.

The medicine cabinet.

Without a second thought, Marco grabs the orange container and bolts up the stairs with the roar of his parent's car growing louder.

Everything is for her.

He doesn't even know her name yet, she's done so much for him. He was no longer the safe-kid. Marco Diaz was the risky type of teenager. They type that would steal sleeping pills from his parents and fight monsters.

Marco throws himself onto the bed. He tosses two pills into his mouth and chugs a bottle of water, carelessly.

His eyes close slowly, waiting for the effects of the medicine.

I'll save you, he thought just before passing out.

-

Slowly, Marco opened his eyes.

Standing before him was ukulele girl. Her smile broadens, the type of smile that was almost unreal. She was like a star that Van Gogh painted across the nightsky. What a work of art.

Marco had already planned what he was going to do.

Okay maybe he didn't but there wasn't time to contemplating his decisions.

Living in the moment is what brought him here.

I guess he'll just go with the flow.

Marco's heart begins to flutter furiously, it's such a foreign feeling. Yet is was a feeling full of rhapsody.

Then he kisses her.

Her arms go limp and her eyelids relax. It's a soft and delicate kiss. Their bodies melted together, as if they were one. Like soulmates that were trying to find each other.

She tasted like strawberry chapstick.

Marco opens his eyes. He sees his opening.

Marco reacher over to her side, and...

Takes the wand.

Suddenly, Ukulele girl's eyes open. Her eyes no longer look like a sky. They look like a thunderstorm. "Don't make me go back!" she screamed, trying to grab the wand. Marco backed away, dodging every hand that came towards him. Seeing her so desperate felt like a stab in the heart. They type that twist and turns into the flesh.

"You can't stay here forever" Marco complied. He watched in fear as her legs began to crack like beautiful china. "Toffee is waiting for you". Tears being to well-up in her eyes. She no longer looked like a storm. She looked like a pool of water. A pool of tears.

Marco gives her a final smile. The sad kind. The forgiving kind.

Her eyes being to overflow like a graceful waterfall.

The once dream-like world, turns into a nightmare. The ground begins the crack and the sky turns to a malicious gray. The flower bed was no longer as brilliant as it once was.

"I hate you"

The last things she says lingers in his ears.

She had gone back.

Marco starts to scan his surroundings. His dream was corrupted. Creatures and mutants being to surround him. "Let's fight monsters" Marco whispered to himself before raising the wand and pointing forward with a smirk.

-

Marco's mother screams when she sees the opened container at his nightside table.

She screams again when he doesn't wake up.

Author's Note:

I don't know what to say...I'm not really sure if people read this.

Honestly, I usually don't read these notes in fanfics.

I do read author's notes in books though.
