In Your Dreams- Chapter 1: Flashbacks & Foreshadows

_______________________________________________

"Uh... Hello? Your that girl, aren't you?" The little boy asked with an amused expression plastered into his tiny angelic face. "Wha-what girl?" The small platnom blondette asked in confusion. "Hm... Well, the girl that's  always in my dreams. She looks just like you, I've seen her for the past few weeks every single night..." He went on, memories of the past month, seeing her walk around silently, as if looking for something.

"Wait..This is a dream?" The angelic voice asked, looking around at the realistic scene of fields and sunflowers. "Yeppers," he answers slyly "why are you in my dream? Shouldn't you been in yours?" He points out to her with his small index finger pointed forward. "O-oh I-I'm so sorry, I-I..." The young girl stuttered and failed to relax. "Its alright, I know we can't control it. Seeing someone with the curse other than me is actaully pretty cool if jm being honest..."

"Curse?" She studied him with a puzzled expression. "Yep. Well... No not a curse... A gift you could say? But I count it as a curse!" He stated boldly.

"What does this gift- uh, curse do?"

"Well... I'm not exactly sure... grandpa used to tell me stories about the curse and how it was passed on in our generation and blah blah blah, I didn't believe him and forgot most of them, I remember a little, they sure are cloudy though." He explained, his eyes focussing to the beautiful girl then to the breezy blue sky. "Why don't you ask your grandpa again?"

Silence. Welp you know what this means...

"Oh..I'm- I'm sorry.." The silver haired girl apologized, guilt spreading from her button tongue to her head. "Nah, it's fine, no hard feelings." He smiled weakly, his blonde hair resting perfectly on his ears. "So.... Do we share dreams then?"

"...Uh... Apparently?" He says, concerningly unsure. "Only Demons and goddesses with the curse can join one another in a dream... I thought I was the last one to have this curse. Turns out there's more demons out there with it! I knew it! I knew grandpa was wrong!"

"D-demons?" The girl stuttered, remembering all the tall tales she was told, to top it off it reminded her of that day. "You're a demon arent you?"

"No..." The young one confesses, tangling and twisting her fingers together, she tended to fiddle when she was nervous. She knew other kinds lived amongst the humans such as fairies but didn't know if I was anything other then human and she definitely did not know demons were a sad realistic part of life. Those were just tall tales. Tales that came to life.

"I-I'm just human.." She stated bluntly, "liar!" He laughed out, sounding equally excusing while joking around. "N-no I-I'm not lying I sw-swear!"
He raises his hands in defeat and his eyebrows rose an inch but soon went back down. "Okay okay, I get it. Your human, but only demons and goddesses can enter these reality like dreams, and the goddesses, well..." He trailed off, his smile fading. "The goddesses are extinct, so you're more likely to be a demon than anything."

"A demon.." She thought out loud. "Your a demon?"

"Mhm" he says with a smile. Once he told the girl about that his childish peaceful smile turned into a creepy grin in the small childs mind. Although nothing has changed and he was still the small playful boy, her mind found it's way back to the horrifying stories told by her sisters and friends

"P-please don't hurt me..?" she fawned with a glimpse of fright in her blue orbs, "now why would I do that?" He questions with a cheeky grin. "Be-because your a d-demon...?" The small girl more of like asked instead of stated. "Its alright, you can trust me. I'm a good demon you could say?"

"O-okay.." she whispered, hopefully he wasnt lying and was being honest, if he was then she wouldn't know what to do. "My name's Meliodas, what's yours?"
"Elizabeth." She whispered, "Ellie for short."
"Nice to meet you Ellie, say, since we're stuck in eachothers dreams, wanna be friends?"

"Friends," I thought out loud "I've never had a friend before.."

"You haven't?" I nod no.

"Well today's your lucky day Ellie!"

"Ellie?"

"It's a nickname silly." He says with a smile.

'A nickname' I thought to myself.
