Dead By Daylight: Laurie Strode X Reader (Male)

Chapter 11

Your POV (1st Person)

After Laurie exited the Archive.
I knew it was my turn.

She looked happy.
She gave me a kiss and told me,
"See you at the SUV. We'll talk about our memories. Maybe make new ones tonight." She winked at me and ran off.

Steve walked up to me and patted me on my back.
"Hey. You alright? You look pale."

I looked at my hands seeing them shake a little.

I was scared.

What was I afraid of?
I don't know.

"Dude, listen if you don't want to go in. I'll take your spot. I mean, I'm the last person in line. So... Can I cut?" Steve tried to reassure me, and tried to cut in front of me.

Clever bastard...

"No. I'm fine. Thanks." I said to him and walked in.
I heared Steve cuss in the background.

As I was walking in,
I thought of what was I about to see.
What will I witness...
Is it the past?
My past?
I thought I got over it.
My past is history.
I am free from it...

I am...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was too busy rambling that I didn't realize the process started.

My eyes were locked shut.
My breathing was very heavy.
And...

I was standing in a house.
But as I looked closer around.
It was my house.

I was standing in the doorway.
The door was open.
It was a beautiful afternoon behind me.

A woman stood in front of me.
She was in her late 20s.
She was very elegant and beautiful.

Her eyes were green like nature itself.
Her hair was brown of beauty.
Her scent was like... Freshly baked cookies.

"Oh sweetheart. I'm so proud of you." She said to me and hugged me.

Her voice...
Her touch...

S-she was my mom.

I hugged her back tightly.

I wanted to cry.
I haven't seen my mom in years.

"I miss you." I said to her.

She chuckled with happiness and released me.
She placed her gentle hand on my cheek and smiled.

"You miss me already? I'm gonna miss you more since your going off to that nice program at the College." She said, she moved her thumb on my cheek now as to soothe me.

"P-program? What program?" I asked my mom confused.

"The Nurse program silly. Your College introduced it to you. Your going to see how a real hospital works. Isn't that amazing?" She said with a smile.

I miss her so much...

I didn't respond to her and she started tearing up.

"My son. Going to follow in his mother's footsteps. I am so proud of you." She hugged me again and I hugged back not holding back the tears.

I cried embracing my own mother.
I never want this to end.

This memory...
Let this be a reality.
Let me relive it.

Please!
I want to see her again!
Anything!

My thoughts were scrambled with reality over imagination.

This felt so real but at the same time unreal.

"I love you, mom." I said to her.

"I love you too, (Y/N)." She said.

I started to make my way out the door.

I turned to get a good look at my mom one last time.

She waved goodbye and said to me,
"(Y/N)!"

"Yes?" I asked.

"You might see that girl who claims she saw the Boogyman. Why don't you stop by her room. A good nurse cares about all their patients."

That was the last advice and the last words from my mom.

I will cherish those words forever...
"A good nurse cares about all their patients." I repeated to myself...

"A good nurse cares about all their patients..." I said.

"A good nurse cares about all their patients..." I said again.

"A good nurse..." I stopped.

I started to realize what my mom was wearing.
It was a white Nurse outfit that was filthy, ragged.

But her beauty was still there.
Her hair, her eyes.

I looked at her nametag on her outfit...

Sally...

Sally Smithson.

My mom's name is Sally.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up in the Archive again.

I looked around to see if it really was a memory.

Sadly it was...

I lost it.

I let my sadness take control of my body.
I let it flow.

Tears poured out my eyes.
I slammed to my knees.

My tears became rain to the ground of the Archive.

I shouted, yelled.
No one could hear me due to the Archive's walls.

But then I calmed down.
Trying to quiet my sadness with small sniffling.

I walked out the Archive.
I kept my head facing the ground.
I knew the rest waiting line were staring at me.

That doesn't matter.
I know something about my mom.

Her name is Sally.

And she's in this realm with me...

I can feel it...
