Dreamscape

Chapter 2: What's Missing?

I review my first take on the the design before submitting it to the director. Something about it seems 'off' though.

"This is missing something..." I say to myself. I look on my laptop to find what else I can use and hear Fab's song playing again. "Dreamin'" fills the office, giving this calm vibe. I keep listening and draw a couple of silhouettes with the stars. I take a photo of the final sketch and send an email to the creative director to get the approval to continue. After thinking of some colors, I head out to get some lunch.

There's a coffee shop near the corner and I go to grab a sandwich and tea. After putting in my lunch and getting my order, I sit near the window. Before I take a bite out my sandwich, I see Fab a few tables from mine. I start to get feelings of excitement and tension. It's like harboring a high school crush, I get so hyped even getting a 'hi' from him. I see him get up and walk this way.

"Hey there. How have you been?" I hear him say. Fab sits across from me and we talk for a while. I tell him about the Dreamscape project and how I'm making the design and looking for some colors to bring out the message. He mentions doing an opening show for the company of the client I'm doing my project.

"That's a coincidence, your show is the same time as my project deadline" I say. We talk a little while longer and with each passing minute I try to contain myself from touching his arm. He holds my hand instead and I start to feel a certain tingle. Before I know it, he says he has to go and I return to the office.

I still reminisce over Fab holding my hand at the coffee shop, until I hear a 'bing' from my laptop. It was an email for the creative director, approving my third sketch for refinement of the design. I get back to work by cleaning up my sketch and finding more elements to include. Hours go by and I finally complete the first design and send it to the director before heading home for the day.

At home, I drop my items into the living room and go to my bedroom for a short nap. I close my eyes after resting my head onto my pillow, before hearing a knock on my door. "This better be good" I say to myself, going to answer the door I open the door and see Fab, who comes inside and kisses me deeply. He wraps his arms around me and I get so aroused. "Mmm...I've been wanting to give you that all day" Fab whispers softly. We move to my sofa and he caresses me, staring. I start feeling hot and we share another warm embrace. Fab tickles me and I lean back while he pressing himself against me.

Lord give me strength to resist ravishing and rocking his world, I think to myself. The phone rings as we continue to fool around. "Are you going to answer the phone?" he asks. "No, I'll let whoever's calling leave a message". The ringing continues and it becomes a bother for the both of us. I answer the phone, but there's no one on the other end. The phone rings again and I wake up. "Hello?!" I answer, hoping whoever's calling has a good reason for waking me up.
