Fallen Star

Keep The Secrets To Yourself

Me and my parents in the next few weeks went on with life as normally as we could. My parents warned me not to tell anyone what had happened, because who knows what they would end up doing with me if the government found out.

So I did what they said. I wanted to tell Alysa because she knew something was up, but no way would she believe me and besides even if she did, I just couldn't find a way to tell her.

While me and Alysa went out for coffee and lunch, a month later, in my new truck, which my dad had taught me to drive recently, something felt strange in my stomach, as we pulled into the sandwich shop in the small town we lived in.

I can't explain it, but the whole time I felt as if someone or something was watching us. I felt strongly that whoever was watching me was also after me. I am probably being paranoid I kept saying to myself. No one knows right? So I have nothing to worry about?

" I am going to go powder up my face in the bathroom, Alysa. When I get out we can leave." I said as I smiled at my best friend. I really did love that girl. She always cheered me up with her presence.

As I was in the bathroom, fixing some of my makeup and washing my hand, the lights in the bathroom started to flicker. I looked up at the lights above me, and as soon as I returned looking into the mirror, I saw the angel man in my dreams staring at me through the mirror.

" I am coming for you Star..." He said as i was stuck in shock." Tonight." He ended and then disappeared.

Every time I saw him, even in my nightmares, as much as he scared me every time, he also intrigued me. And a part of me longed to see him in person. It was weird, and you know like when you are in Elementary and you are crushing on someone and you get those tingly butterfly feelings in your stomach? Well that's how this guy made me feel. And I dont even know who he is.

I decided as we were driving home, that I wouldn't share this phenomenon with my parents. It would just frighten them and they would be up all night worrying. I was pretty much daydreaming as I was driving, while Alysa was just talking and talking, I pretended and tried to listen to what she was saying, but my mind was truly some where else.

I dropped Alysa off and went inside to take a bath, but before I did, I stared into the bathroom mirror, wondering of someone was staring at me again. It was a creepy feeling, but I needed to take a bath, so I decided to take a shower instead.

As night time rolled around, I stayed up as long as I could wondering who was and if they were actually coming for me. But eventually I fell asleep.

As I slept the man angel that I had just seen earlier that day. Showed up in my bedroom that night. I don't know how he got in but he did. I was about to scream as he put his hands over my mouth.

"Shhh. Star. It's me he said, " Everything will be okay." He then put me in some kind of trance, and as I stared into those blue eyes, I felt protected and I suddenly wanted him to take me away. As I fell back asleep he carried me away in his arms. And we disappeared into the night.

He flew me high into the sky. Unfortunately, I was asleep for all of it. But I had a good dream that night. The first in weeks. And it was me and him making love. It was as if we had been together since the beginning of time. I said aloud as we were flying and I was dreaming. " I love you, Keller."

I awoke the next morning, in a room for for a fairy tale. The bed was astoundingly beautiful with lace and silk all over and around it. Breakfast was sitting on the table beside me along with coffee. And in the chair beside it sat Keller.

"Keller?" I questioned.

"I have missed you, Star Do you remember me now?" He replied.

I was confused. And where was I anyway? "Um, I think, I am not sure, all I know is I have been dreaming of you a lot lately." I said matter of factly, " Where Are we anyways."

He looked at me strangely and said," it has never taken you so long to remember. Your real name is Lilly. But I will call you Star if you would like? This is our home. I was hoping you would at least know who I am by now?" He said sadly. " I am just glad you are with me now. Maybe if I show you around today you will remember everything."

"Ok. But I need to get dressed first." I said as he sat next to me in the chair. He didn't move though or even finch to move.

As he sat he looked at me and said, " Oh, you want me to leave? Right." He said as he began to laugh and get up.
Before he left and closed the door he said," I have been waiting 18 years for you, Star."

I got out of bed, and put on a some really nice and probably very expensive clothes on that I had found in the closet in the room. The closet was huge, and was filled with so many shoes and amazing things. I opened up the jewelry boxes and there was so many beautiful items I about fainted. Is this all mine? I wondered. I must be still dreaming.

But I wasn't dreaming this time, I ended up throwing on a simple black tank top and some cute ripped jeans. I then put on some makeup from my vanity. My hair was gonna take a minute, so I skipped doing it and just threw it up in a messy bun.

I pulled back the drapes, to brighten the room, before I was about to leave, and I realized as I stared out the window, I have been here before. And the landscape around the home, was breathtaking.
