Cassie and I are running, walls behind us are closing in faster and faster. I keep running yelling at Cassie not to stop, she eventually trips... I make the one-second decision and help her up, we keep running. The hallway takes a right and we follow it down to yet another straight corridor.
I can tell Cassie is panicking, she's crying, she's scared... I'm trying to get us out of this mess as best as I can but no matter how much I run the walls won't disappear. Eventually the hallway stop... there's no place to run, it's a dead-end...
As I'm holding Cassie's hand I look towards her, tell her I'm sorry and kiss her. The walls tear down the hallway and eventually, they stop. I take a look and this... creature walks out and looks at me and points. "come here" I hear in my head.
I slowly walk up to it.
The dream ends.
(Alarm beeping)
-Ah fuck shit, what time is it? Ah god dammit-
I lean to my side and see Cassie literally taking up half of the bed
-Baby, up up, its time to go-
-Noo, five more minutessss-
-No haha, c'mon get that ass up-
I sit up and walk to the bathroom, I look in the mirror. I feel so... off? I don't look the same, I look weird. My hair looks different from what it usually looks like when I wake up, my face looks weird.
Cassie walks in the bathroom and comes up behind me and gives me a kiss on the cheek.
-Hey babe?-
-Mhm?-
-Do I look different... to you?-
She walks up in front of me and grabs my face by my cheeks. She looks at me left and right, moving my head left and right. She talks in this baby voice she always does that sounds so high pitched.
-Noo you still look like a little babyyy too meee, you're beard could do some changing thouuugh-
-Oh shut up will you-
-Hahaha-
She chuckles and laughs for a bit before brushing her teeth.
-I'll go wake up roland-
She gives me the thumps up
I walk out the bathroom, still I feel so god damn odd, like my face feels wrong and my body heat is off the fucking charts. I can literally feel every step I take, every breath I let out my lungs collapse and it kinda hurts a little. I look at my hands.
-Jesus fuck, why am I shaking so much...?-
My hands are very unsteady, I feel nervous, anxious, uneasy. Somethings not right. My breathing starts to become heavy and uncontrolable, I begin to see less clearly. Fuck this might just be me having a panick attack.
Everything feels dissy and I start swaying left and right, I fall on the bed and start digging my nails into my skin. Help me... It hurts.
-Hey.. babe you okay?-
I snap back, just standing still by our bedroom door, having my hands at stomach height.
-Fuck, yeah sorry I'm okay, I'll... I'll wake up Roland-
-...okay?-
I walk our room, that didn't feel right... what the fuck is going on with me today? It's probably just because of the dream I had I'm feeling uneasy. I walk to the couch and wake Roland up, obviously again he forgot to turn off the Tv, but managed to eat all of his and our pizza, even though he complained about it being Hawaiian pizza. Fucking dickbag hahah.
-Roland get up you fucking slut, were about to head out!-
-Yeah yeah I'm up I'm up-
He sits up and I sit on the sofa right in front of his.
-Hey do I look different to you?-
-No? Why?-
-Just curious...-
-Okay, well are we leaving now now? or now?-
-Now now-
-Alright gimme a sec to get dressed-
-Uh huh-
I stand up and start packing the bags with food, water, clothes for I and Cassie, medical supplies in case she decides to trip on another puddle, and a little bit of other stuff.
-Hey Rolly! Don't forget to pack the stoves and shit!-
-Nah nah I won't forget it, oh Goodmorning Cassie-
-Morning! Sleep well?-
-Eh, better to get some shut-eye then none at all-
-Right as rain-
We all pack our stuff and get ready to head out, Cassies already done dressed, putting her makeup on, putting her shoes on and is waiting by the door for me like usual, I swear shes not a real girl if she doesnt take literally half an hour to do all that, maybe even one or two. I promise you.
-Everyone ready?-
-Yep!- both Cassie and Roland says
We walk out of the aparment and walk down a fly of stairs to the car, I open up the trunk and shove the bags there. As soon as I close the trunk... the entire world is grey, dark... no light what so ever, it feels so dead. No-one is talking or making any noise. I can't hear any of the cars that were driving back. I see... this girl running down the street. I walk after her and she that she stops by a man hole. She points down into it and whispers to me.
-He lives there... Nobody knows for how long, but he's there-
-Who lives there?-
-Скинвокер-
-What...?-
-He can save you, he'll take you to bliss, look closer-
I slowly get on my knees and look closer down, the little girl laughs and pushes me down. I yell and scream as I fall down. Turning my back against the fall. I see the man hole... I see it's light. I see it getting darker and darker as I fall, the light begins to perish away. Eventually... the lights gone...
-Oi cunt! I said are you okay?-
-What! fuck sorry yeah I'm good, sorry I zoned out-
-Jesus mate, get your shit together will ya'?-
-Yeah sorry...-
Me and Cassie get in the car while Roland runs back up to get his phone that he almost forgot. I put my hand on the gear shifter and calm my breathing slowly.
Cassie puts her hand on my hand.
-Are you okay babe...? You're acting weird today...-
-Yeah I'm okay don't worry, just a little bit frightened, you know I haven't done this in a long time and the last time we did-
-I know I know... You sure you don't wanna stop and just go back home?-
-I'm sure-
-Okay baby...-
I give Cassie a kiss on the cheek and push her forehead against mine.
-I love you okay?-
-I love you too-
-I love you most-
Roland jumps back into the car, I start her up and start driving away.
