His bare feet sank into the dampened, earthy, soil. The white lilies around him brushed against his ankles as he turned around, taking in his surroundings. The boy rolled up his sleeves and combed a hand through his hair.
The new, warm atmosphere was a contrast to what he had felt in his bed.
In his bed...
He realised that he must be dreaming, and this gave him power. After a moment of trying, he noticed that he was unable to control anything but himself, which was odd for a lucid. Noting that things seemed very real and very clear for a dream, he began to wonder why this was unlike anything he had ever experienced.
The boy furrowed his eyebrows as he continued to survey the world around him. He was in his pajamas, and in the middle of a flower patch surrounded by a dark wood. The lilies released a sweet scent that spread through the air, and there was a chilled breeze that shook the loose leaves that were stapled to the trees. There was also a light chirping of birds; it was all too real to be a dream, it seemed.
"Jonah!" he heard a voice yell. The voice and name sounded foreign to him, burying him deeper in confusion of what was happening to him.
"Jonah!" he heard it again. The voice was feminine, and the yell sounded more desperate this time. He always remembered a voice, and had no recollection of this one.
Who is she? Who is she looking for, and why? He found himself wanting to reach out and grab this mysterious person's hand, his natural urge to comfort them consuming him. The voice rang out among the woods once more, this time a little quieter, and rising in tone near the end. She was definitely looking for this "Jonah" person, but he knew no one by that name.
He found his feet leading him towards the edge of the flower patch, peering into the forest. He reached out a hand, expecting someone that he couldn't see or hear anymore to lace their fingers with his as they pulled for him.
"Finn!" It was a different voice this time, a more familiar one. A more angry one.He instantly knew who it was, never forgetting a voice; especially this one.
"Finn!"
His eyes shot open as he bolted upright. His breathing was ragged and his shirt was almost damp from the heat radiating off of his dark skin. He looked around, bewildered, until he saw his older sister hovering over him.
"Dumbass," Aubrey mumbled, "we're gonna be late."
