A/N: Well, consider this Imagine a parting gift as I'm starting school again tomorrow *sigh*. :( This was originally written on an Owl City fanpage I admin on Facebook; and it was written for my best friend starinthesummersky. :) So naturally, it's dedicated to her!

(P.S: This Imagine is more so aimed at the girl HootOwls; sorry guys, but feel free to read anyways! :p)

Why do I have to get up so early? I groaned as my alarm clock beeped endlessly, telling me to wake. I fumbled in the dark, trying to hit the snooze button, but instead, I pushed the alarm clock off of my bedside table. "Ugh, now you're mocking me.." I mumble and tap to snooze button before picking the alarm clock back up.

I always had to get up early to go to my job. I was always on open; never did I get a chance to sleep in anymore. With all my studying and work combined, it was hectic! I groggily pulled the sheets off and got up. I instantly started to get changed into my uniform, fixed my hair and ate breakfast.

The one thing I hated was I had to catch the bus. My workplace was in town and it was the only way I could get there. Generally creeps caught the bus at this time and I never felt safe. As I paid the bus driver and walked down the narrow corridor, I saw people glance at me.

There was only one person I noticed. He was up the back, sitting alone listening to some music. He seemed like the only normal person on the bus, so I sat closer to him than anyone else. It was a 30 minute bus ride and then another 15 minute walk. I didn't mind the walk, it was nice. The roads weren't all that busy during this time, so I had no difficulty crossing the street. It gave me time to think and reflect, which I generally didn't have time for anymore. I stayed in complete silence; there was no noise on the bus as usual. I started to drift off and I think I did at one point.

But after a short while, I couldn't keep my eyes open. They slid shut and I began dreaming the most wonderful dream. Someone I knew stood in front of me...someone...famous? I couldn't quite tell. All I saw was a dark silhouette, I know that they waved to me, but that was about it. When I woke again, everyone was gone, except for the bus driver of course and that strange man up the back. He was still there, listening to his music and staring out the window, his sunglasses still on and hat pulled over so it covered most of his face. We were still moving and as I looked outside my heart stopped.

Where am I?! I thought in a panic. "No...no-no-no, this can't be happening! Where am I?" I shuffled everything around in my handbag, trying to find my phone but it was no use...because I'd left my phone at home.

"Great, now I'm stuck.." I muttered.

"Huh? What's wrong?" A sweet voice suddenly emitted from behind me; it actually made me jump. I had been so caught up in trying to think of a way home that I wasn't concentrating on anything around me. Strangely though, that voice sounded familiar...where had I heard it before? Oh well, now wasn't the time to think about that! I was in a terrible situation!

As I turned around, I saw it was the man at the back. He smiled gently and had one headphone out of his ear so he could hear my properly. I hesitated; I mean should I really trust this guy? With his hat covering most of his face and he sunglasses still on...it seemed a tad creepy. But, he seemed nice enough...you can never be too careful though. "I...fell asleep and obviously didn't get off at my stop.." I laughed nervously.
