I opened my eyes and sat up. I don't know what time it is but I felt the sun pour in through the windows. I looked around the large room and saw that I was in a rather large bed. The sheets were white and silky soft and the pillows nice and cool. I turned to my right and saw the large windows and through them, I could see a garden from the second floor. I felt confused but oddly safe; I moved to the edge of the bed and went to get up and I felt the softness of the carpet on the soles of my feet. I looked around the room some more and saw that there where clothes laid out for me, jeans and a white dress shirt. I put them on when I was done washing up. I felt comfortable here and a sense of deja vu started washing over me. 

As I finished waking up I hear music and chatter downstairs. I decided to walk down to see what was going on. I see several men in dress clothes surrounding one another. I walk down the stairs and began walking closer to the small gathering when one of the men noticed me and waved, 

" Well good afternoon, Miss". 

Everyone turned to me. I wasn't afraid, I felt as if I knew them, there was a sense of familiarity with these men. One of the men took a step towards me and I impulsively ran into his arms. I hugged him and he smelt amazing. He hugged back and asked how I slept, and I just nodded. He walked me away from the group of guys with his arm around my waist. 

"That's good, listen, the preparations for tonight are ready. Aren't you excited?" this man, let's call him Arien (mostly because I don't know who he is). 

I nodded and looked around judging what can only be described as a ballroom. I guess I knew what I wanted and said 

"Alright, when are they coming?"

"In about an hour but the guys wanted to make sure everything goes well," Arien said as he nodded to the guys and they waved back to us.

"Ok, that's fine," I said. I am still a bit confused as to what is going on but I figured my dream self knew what I was doing.

"Do you want to go outside?" asked Arien. I nodded and he looked over at his friends and pointed outside. I guess to let them know we will be right back. 

We walk outside, arm in arm, and it felt nice and familiar. I took the chance to look outside the house and take everything in. The house was enormous, it was easily three stories and there weren't any neighbors in a five-mile radius. The air felt refreshing and clean. The garden was very well taken care of; it had bright flowers of all kinds. We walked around a bit with the sent of Arien's cologne and the sweet perfume of the flowers mixing together, I was in love with this. We had a very long conversation, we laughed and joked but I don't remember exactly what we spoke about. 

Arien stopped us and said something to me in a serious tone but I couldn't understand what he was trying to tell me. Then he hugged me and I hugged back after a moment. I felt dizzy with all the smells surrounding me so I closed my eyes and after a minute of nothingness, I woke up to the real world.
