Ignorance is Bliss

Chapter Three

Chapter Three 

Days drug by for me. But, weren’t under any circumstance meeting the needs for being unbearable. Before now, days could be described as I would my life- ordinary, boring. But, now, they were somehow a bit more…exciting. 

Nothing had exactly changed, but at the same time, everything had. By now, I had just noticed I didn’t know Teen Dream’s name, but, I guess that’s what made it all the more exciting. 

I knew nothing. And, I loved it. 

Each time I would go into the forest, I almost felt as if I were dangerous. When, really, if something were to happen, I’d be the one in danger. Even then, it was a good feeling to have. It made my heart race, pumping adrenaline throughout my veins. It was wonderful. 

I skipped through the forest, jumping over rocks and singing the same melody Blondie had heard, before. I had presumed that’s how he had found me. So, why not, again?

I knew deep down, I didn’t really want that to happen. But, the Teen Dream in my fantasies were kind, and lovable. A boy who always gave kind hearted smiles, and loved to laugh. Eventually, he had become a man I had grown to love, despite his status with the rest of the world.

Now, I found myself not just living through life with a smile on my face. I had become beautiful, living in a world where I could be with this person, with days unnumbered. It was nice. 

So, when another month rolled past me, reality came back to slap me in the face. And, it was bringing back Sensible Bliss. Every month she would show up. Like a bad omen. And, even though she had been the one to meet Teen Dream, she was still bitter. 

Like, an old woman. 

I hated her. 

Walking along the path, I softly sung something that sounded sadder, being careful not to sing too loudly. I knew what happened the last time I did. And, being in this state, I would not allow it to happen, again. 

And, with new symptoms arising, I found it wasn’t that hard. 

Side-affects would occasionally pop up, but over time, went away. This time, I had found I ran out of breath easily. So, by raising my voice any higher than a whisper, and I’d probably pass out. Somehow, I felt grateful for this one. No one could hear me, this way.

Mei was as cheerful as ever. But, I noticed with a start, a boy was hanging around her. Meaning, beauty here, finally got the romance she had been dreaming of. 

In other words, she didn’t have time for idle chatter with me.

Neither looked too in the mood for customers. And, if my medicine hadn’t of been absolutely crucial, I’m sure she would have shut down the shop. From the hungry looks she had been receiving, I would say she should. 

No one is comfortable watching a couple eye-fuck each other. And, to be honest, I didn’t see any romance in that. Weren’t third parties supposed to get cutesy feelings towards a couple? Because, these two just made me want to bolt. 

Either something a little less sentimental was happening between the two, or Barbie was just as delusional as I normally was. And, either way it was, it was just as disturbing to watch as a third party. 

For once, I was actually glad to leave the tiny shop. The usual warm atmosphere was replaced by a thick layer of hormones, and it was suffocating. 

So, when I got back to the familiar scenery of the forest, it was like a huge weight had been lifted off of my chest. And, with the medicine bag clutched tightly towards me, I silently wondered if anyone would ever look at me like that. 

~            ~          ~

I sighed, pawing through the pantry. There was literally nothing in there. You would think that while I was out, I would have thought to get something to eat. But, now, I was hungry. And, by being so, I was irritable. 

“What’s for dinner, yeah?” Just like the last time I had heard that voice, my body froze. Maybe I had just imagined it? I shook my head, continuing my search. And, as expected, only a spider web was found, making me shiver. I hated spiders. 

“You’ve got goose bumps, un.” I felt a single digit slide up my arm, fingernail lightly grazing my skin. I shivered, again, but for a whole different reason. 

I straightened my back, and found Teen Dream. Standing before me, with his impossibly tall figure, and deep blue eyes. Just like I remembered. 

Hungry Bliss was agitated Bliss. And, as much as normal me loved him, I was far too annoyed to even consider looking at him as I normally did. 

I grimaced, flicking his hand off of me. “What are you doing?”

Blondie raised an eyebrow, leaning down closer to me. “You weren’t like this last time, hmm. What happened?”

“What are you doing in my house?” My voice came out stern as I folded my arms over my chest, lightly tapping my foot. His expression was cocky, but his eyes were a different story. And, looking closer, I noticed it wasn’t pity. Not even close. 

It was annoyance. 

And, I think that’s what amused me the most. 

!~*~*~*~*~*~*!

Remember when Bliss thought that maybe he’d feel bad for her like everyone else? No. ok. That’s okay, then. I don’t know where I’m going with this. 

As chapters progress, I really hope I stay to his character :s take this story as an apology for how I portrayed Deidara in The Rogue’s Love xD Yeah, sorry. That was horrible. He’s a bit more…feisty in this one (; 

But, omg. Where I’m at in this story…omg. To be honest, I like it. And I hope you guys do. But, before I go, I think you should know I started High School (sobsobsob) and I absolutely loathe it. But, there’s this really cute senior (I think) with a really nice butt. Omgomg. #InLove yeah. Ok. Sorry for rant. Kthxbai. 

Happy Readings~!
