"No!" A horrified scream escaped my trembling lips, right before I woke up from another nightmare in the middle of the night.
I'm pretty sure everyone is used to it. However, I think you could hear it miles away this time. I sounded much more terrified, more desperate for help, more loud.
Way more loud.
That's probably why my aunt entered into my room so fast.
"Leo?!" She screamed as she stormed into my room. She looked at me with a look of 'what the hell happened here?' And at the same time a look that said 'Are you okay?' Even though she clearly knew I wasn't....
I don't think I ever sweated that much. I was literally covered in sweat, yet I shivered. I was somehow cold. It's like it was extremely hot while I was dreaming, that the normal temperate felt unbelievably cold. A thing that made me breath heavily while crossing my hands as I held both of my arms by them, shaking.
It's like I was in some trans. I couldn't hear her, or anything else at the moment. Actually, I wasn't even thinking. I just felt. I felt like I was dying.
It's been like that until she shook me off of it while screaming my name, as loud as she could. Only then I could finally register what happend until that moment.
I lifted my head, still shivering. I was so confused about everything. Salty tears were rolling down my cheeks as I tried to catch my breath.
That's when she tightly embraced me. I could see that she was very worried. She had that look in her eyes. Same look she gave me after my mom's death.
She knew there's something wrong with me. These last two months, I acted very strange. I didn't want to make her worried about me, that's why I kept my mouth shut about those dreams...
But I now realized that me not talking to her about my problems was making her more and more concerned about my current state, which definitely wasn't nice right now.
And so, I finally decided to tell her about what had been making my life hell when I close my eyes.
She pulled away from our hug and caressed my cheek softly. "My sweet Leo... I beg you, let me help..." I smiled weakly and then slightly nodded.
"What's happening to you?" She let out weakly as she tried to hold back her tears.
I then told her everything. About how during those two months I tried my best to not fall asleep because I was too afraid to come back to this nightmare. How I wasn't afraid about the dream itself. How I was afraid about the feeling while dreaming it.
I don't know how to explain, describe exactly how it feels... But it's the worst feeling I ever felt in my entire life. It's like all the world's terror, sadness and internal pain were took and put inside me. Mixed together into something far worse. It fely as if my heart was replaced with darkness.
