#2 Cheek pinching should be considered a 'crime'.

Why is it, that when everything seems okey, it turns out, that it really isn't?

Like when you go to the beach. And you're expecting the warm enchanting sun, to be bright and beautiful. Shining over you, as you step upon the bead like ground, that we call sand. Feeling it make it's way between your toes, warmly and strangely.

A salty breeze makes it way up your nostrils. (Or how I prefer to call them, olfactory nerves. It sounds less barbaric.) Then traveling into your throat, scratching at it, making you feel a twinge if pain, but the good kind. Then you step into the ocean. Feeling it's waves crash over you. They're freezing, but warm at the same time. Making you feel excited, and alert, yet calm and still, all at once.

Fay?

You see a charming seashell here and there, or a cute tiny crab.

Fay.

Or sometimes a weird fish, that kinda creeps you out a little. Like the kinda creepy where there's a person by you, and then you just feel the water get warm all of a sudden.

Fay! Hey, wake up!

But then the whole day goes boom! Poof! There's now a thunder storm. Raging dark clouds cover the once pretty blue sky, as the once enchanting sun hides behind them, afraid of the havoc that is to come!

"Fay wake up! Come on, you're dreaming!" I hear a well known voice shout, as my shoulders are being shaken. I peek my eyes open, to find Eli staring at me with a hint amusement playing on his features. Eyebrows twisted, cherry lips trying not to pull into a smile, his dark eyes wide, twinkling with a little worry.

"What? Where am I? Who are you?!" I state, trying to make my expression seem fearful. But that's quite difficult when you want to laugh.

Eli's face pales, and he takes a step back. "Wha-?"

"Gotcha!" I smile, jumping out of my bed, all the while punching his shoulder lightly.

He sighs, scratching his head in annoyance. "Seriously? I come in here to find you sleep screaming, and this is what you do to me?"
I laugh a evil laugh, as I begin to make my bed, and he only watches, still quite annoyed.

Fay 1, and Eli 0.

"Yeah no. If we're honest here, it's more like Fay 1, and Eli around 1,000 something."

Can I not ever indulge, in a moment of sweet victory?

"It had to be done." I state, shooting him a smirk, which he in return smiles. "Was I really sleep talking?"

"Puff. More like sleep yelling. All I could hear for like ten minutes was you yelling about the enchanting sun." He explains, breaking down into laughter.

I sigh, feeling a twinge of embarrassment. "So that was a dream?"

"I guess.. you've been sleep talking quite a bit you know, but this time it was yelling." He states, seating himself on my bed, as his dark eyes watch me fold my extra blankets. "What was your dream about this time? Two days ago it was about a boat, what now?"
