The sparkles gets more intense as I glance at the hills above us.
"They are so bright"
I tell him, trying to act normal as usual.
I am aware of my own situation, I know that I am in a dream, so it doesn't have to make any sense.
Sparkles, weather changing, glitters flying around..
It looks realistic but I already know it is not.
I just want to know why Grayson is being different every time.
He surprises me every time.
I have been coming here for a really long time in my dreams, but we have never done anything besides swimming, talking poetic..
"Why did you want to go on an adventure?"
I ask him as we keep walking through the woods.
Fireflies are lightning up the beautiful trees.
This place is amazing. I wonder why we are here.
Grayson doesn't let go of my arm, leading the way.
His starry skin blinks under purple sky.
"I just wanted to show you a place before it is too late"
Too late?
"What do you mean?"
He doesn't say anything, and my mind replays the things Mia told me.
I flinch as the orange sun brightens and fireflies start to fly around us.
"Just a few steps more and we will be there. Want some Sprite?"
I shake my head.
He doesn't look at me but shrugs, taking a sip from it.
The vibes and the air is really interesting.
He looks more attractive more than ever. Even we look the same, his starry skin and bright eyes are too good to be real. He definitely looks different from the other times.
"So.. Do you want to stay quiet?"
He asks me, stopping me from walking.
"Is it the place you wanted to take me? We are still in the same forest." I reply him, watching him leaning back to a bright tree.
He sighs, holding his stomach.
"Your stomach hurts," he tells me, rubbing his own stomach.
What the actual fuck?
How does he know?
I did not tell him anything about my pain.
"What- how do you know?"
"I feel it too."
I open my mouth to say something but nothing comes out.
I can't tell him that I took too much sleeping pills to don't wake up early.
It hurts my stomach. But I couldn't know he would feel it too.
"Let's just sit down here, and then we can go further after you feel better." He says again, sitting down under the tree.
His glowing skin blinks again.
My mind tells me crazy stuff. I don't know what to do as always.
I always fail on doing things as planned.
I had only one purpose.
Look where I am now..
I sit down in front of him, rubbing my legs.
Why the fuck did we walk? It is a fucking dream can't we teleport or something?
"How do you feel?"
He asks me, staring at my legs.
He is not flirty, not talking poetic or complicated today.
I wonder why I feel comfortable even when he is being flirty.
I used to hate it when he was alive.
"I am fine, just tired. We walked too much."
He nods, scratching his head.
I watch his rope mark again.
"I really want to know what's happening."
I say, not keeping myself from telling it this time.
Supernovas in his eyes brightens.
The most beautiful dead I have ever seen.
He is the most precious thing between all these things that reminds me of death.
"You will one day,"
I feel the tension and it makes me slightly scared.
"What? Grayson, why you never tell me anything? You act like I am the stupid one, like I am the crazy one."
"You have to feel like it a little longer."
I feel his longing through his eyes.
I just don't understand.
I remember the day I first came here, he acted like nothing was happening. When I hugged him, he was surprised. When I told him he was dead, he went wild and hurt himself.
But now he acts like he knows what is going on.
"Why can't you let me get my answers?"
He sighs, resting his arms on his belly.
And gives me that kind of look.
That look which makes everything shine, makes the wind sing and makes me forget everything.
"I don't wanna let go of you yet."
