❝If you see the magic in a fairy tale, you can face the future.❞
― Danielle Steel*******
I was in a really dark place. The darkness was swallowing me. And though I could see a faint light coming from the far end of the tunnel, no matter how hard I tried to reach for it the light was moving further and further away. And suddenly there was a change of scenery and a huge dragon spitted fire on me.
I jerked up. Thankfully it was a dream. But it felt so real that my heart was skipping beats and my palms were sweating profusely.
Felicity was sleeping on her bed,snoring faintly. And though we were still not that good friends I was glad to get a person like her beside me. I had a gut feeling she had some deep secrets burried behind her toothy smile but who doesn't hold secrets in this world. I decided at that moment I will treat Felicity dearly.
The room was dark, only the moonlight shinning through the huge window casting a faint glow. I felt rather thirsty. But as I reached for the jar of water I found it empty. In the hustle of the day I have forgotten to fill it.
Taking the jar, I tried to sneak out of the room as quite as possible so as to not wake Felicity.
The corridor was dark and silent. I realized I had no idea where the kitchen was. Thankfully, I had my schedule in my pocket and the school map was printed behind it.
And as I climbed down the stairs, I saw a silhouette approaching towards me. My first reaction was to flee. Already scared out of my shit with my dream, I felt unsafe. There is no surety what kind of creatures loom inside the schools for supernatural at night.
However, as the only lighted lamp of the hall shone over the person, I thanked God that I had not ran.
Jeffery seemed tired as he approached it. With his bulky self and 6ft 11" height, it was no wonder he was a werewolf.
'Hey, thank God I found you here. I wanted to apologise for what happened in the gym.' He said rather shyly for a perso who otherwise looked so intimidating.
I couldn't help but laugh at his cute behavior. ' You shall gain my forgivess if you help me find the kitchen. I am rather thirsty.' I said still smilling.
'It will be my honour. Truely I felt bad that you were hurt in our fight. Also I was on my way to the kitchen. All the bathroom cleaning have left me too hungry' He motioned me to follow him.
Silently, we crossed the hall and took a left to reach te kitchen.
........
The kitchen was huge. Piles of cutlery were stacked in the cabinets. I silenty filled my jar from the filter while Jeffery raided the kitched to find some left over.
Successfully, Jeffery spotted an uneaten chocolate cake. The cake looked delicious. I remembered I did not have dinner.
Jeffery was busy eating the whole cake by himself. And when he saw me awkwardly staring at the cake with hungry eyes, he laughed with his mouth full of cake.
And as we sat on the kitchen table sharing the chocolate cake, I could not help but wonder that I have gained a friend in Jeffery.
.......In my imagination Jeffery looks a bit like this.
Name: Jeffery Smith
Age: 17
