The Dream

Chapter 8

Aaron's POV

Okay was it just me? Or was that just deliberately scary? I mean how did Alexis have the same dream???
I acted like a complete fool and an idiot running away from her as soon as she told me. I couldn't take it though. It was just too much that hit me. How could this possibly happen? I sat down on the grass and was wondering when I realised I should go in there and apologise to Alexis. I mean it was completely stupid of me to just walk off on her like that without any explanation whatsoever.
So there I caught myself walking back in and searching for Alexis. I honestly had no clue why I was doing this because this was so not me!
Anyway, I found her still at her table having her lunch.

"Uh Alexis? I'm sorry for walking off on you earlier. It's just that well I actually get the same dream. I mean I kinda have this feeling that the voice which keeps popping up is yours. I don't know how or why. But we seem to be having the same dream so can we talk about it? "
I quickly said everything in one breath. It felt good to let it out of my head.

"Well we can't be talking if you're gonna be standing. Come on. Take a seat and tell me what it is. What exactly happens in your dreams and I'll tell you mines."

So we ending up talking about each other's dreams and surprisingly-though we both were completely scared about this-seemed to be calm. I couldn't stop staring at the beautiful piece of art sitting in front of me and talking. For this we ended up skipping the rest of the classes for the day and I was more than thrilled.

"Hey! Uh would you like to come home to watch a movie maybe?"

Wow. Did I just ask her that? That definitely escalated quickly.
I usually just flirt with a girl and move on. But something about her told me otherwise.
Her answer surprised me.
"Uhm..I usually don't go out and this is the first time I've been asked over so I don't know if I really should."
What? No one's called her before? Why doesn't she have lots of friends? This girl was definitely mysterious to me. I really had to find out more about her!
"Oh no! Don't worry! My family will be at home. Maybe you'd love to meet my sister and my parents. Please do come over! I won't take no for an answer. Tonight at 7. My place! I'll come pick you up."

"Well....alright. If you insist. Of course I'd love to meet your family!"

There it was settled. The event that happened at my house...well let's just say it didn't turn out like I expected.
