"Well we're gonna have to figure it out."
I remove my covers and I slide off my bed to stand up, Griffin stood next to me. He begins to blush when he sees me in my PJs.
"What"? I asked as he smiled staring at my body, almost to deeply. As if he saw my heart.
"Hmm? oh nothing" He looked at my face and turned to look around.
I felt a tension between us, but I decided to ignore it. I didn't like that feeling of hope when there was none, they always left in the end.
"Alrighty, we have to figure this out. How did this happen? Why are you here? Why are we connected?"
"Usually the dream goes different doesn't it?" Griffin furrowed his eyebrows as he brushed his finger through his hair.
"Yes, usually we kiss blah blah then you disappear into eternal darkness, my light fades and I start dying and screaming in pain but then I wake gasping for air" I spoke fast as I began getting a little embarrassed.
"I wonder why we are connected" He stared up at the ceiling in a thinking pose, I couldn't help but get a little mesmerized by his handsome face. He notices so I look away.
"To be honest I have no clue" I cross my arms and begin to think myself.
Griffin walks in front of me so I dropped my arms and he then grabs my wrists.
"I think we're meant to help each other" he says.
"That does make sense"
"We could also be something more". We stare into each others eyes. He leans in, I couldn't help it I shy away from his mouth. He lets go, I turn away and he says
"Sorry."
"Its fine I just didn't expect that."
"Yeah I would be surprised too."
"Were you trying to say before that we're supposed to be a couple?"
"Yeah, it was stupid."
"No it was a good thought. Probably would explain our dream." It did make sense I just.. I haven't felt this way. what do you say? I don't know about love at least not well. What is this feeling? Why does it burn inside me.
"I think your right, about that couple thing."
I said as I turned to face him, he turns towards me and he gently moves his hands to my face. I leaned into his hand, wanting more love. He pulls me in and we both fall into each others embrace my arms locked around his neck, and he wraps his arms around my waist. He moves his hand onto my neck and pulls me into a passionate kiss.
Its felt like everything became complete, everything felt safe.
I felt like I knew him a lifetime.
Well, I already knew everything about him.
What schools he went to, what he loves. he really likes to play piano. He's super talented, he has a beautiful voice and, loves every art. He even knows Martial arts! He doesn't have a favorite food, he'll eat anything that taste good. He didn't have a favorite color he loved all of them, everything had a good color it went with. I completely fell in love with him.
...
I've never felt anything for many people since I never went to school or been outside. Although I do have tan skin, like I look Hispanic. Anyway, everyone always hated me or thought I was weird and different.
...
We stopped kissing but we never left each others embrace. Our heads stayed together, although we just touched foreheads neither one of us moving, and he whispered.
"I know everything about you, we're not so different you know, the only thing is, I have minimal powers compared to you".
I took a step back and stared at him opened mouth in shock, no one else had powers, maybe that's why we're connected. I couldn't see his powers or that side of him. I wonder why?
"What powers do you have?" I said as I looked at him curiously and studied him.
"Well only small mind powers I can read minds, make people see things, hear voices, and a few other things."
I couldn't believe it, we knew everything about each other with just a look. Maybe it was a good thing maybe a bad thing. I personally thought it was a good thing as I looked at the handsome young man who stood before me.
"What powers do you have?" Griffin asked I turned away and took a deep breath trying to decide whether I should tell him everything I soon answered with.
"Whatever you can think of."
He stared at me with wide eyes, I'm guessing he could only see my aura that's how he knew I had powers.
"Wow!" I looked down almost regretting and thinking I'm stupid to have these powers.
"Hey don't fell sad look at me" Griffin said as he lifts my head by my chin to look at him.
"Your unique, beautiful, stunning, a good and amazing person just for who you are." He gave me a sweet gentle smile showing he cared and meant those words.
"I killed my own parents!" I protested back, how does a good person loose their parents, and it being their fault.
"No you didn't they made that scarifies to save you and your sister". I felt anger and sadness overcome me, I fell into Griffin's arms fitting back tears but soon I could feel Griffin's clothes getting soaked. Griffin held me tighter and tighter.
"shh it'll be ok" He rubbed the back of my head gently.
...
I couldn't believe everything that had happened, everything was changing. Soon the day would come where I would have to find my true self. Have to defeat my demons. Also to learn to forgive and to forget and live happy again. For now though the journey has just started.
…
"You should go home" I looked up to him face as he stared back at me.
"I have no home, my family hates me, but yeah I'll return to that hell."
"I know the feeling, but you can't stay here. My sister will be confused and get angry. Come tomorrow we'll talk to her then about you" I searched his eyes for any hurt but they seemed to be brighter.
"Okay, then I will meet you here after you get home from work?" Griffin says.
"Yep, sounds like a plan". Griffin grabs me tightly around my waist and pulls me close so we're face to face.
"I love you" he says. I giggled and replied.
"I love you too."
We fall into a deep kiss and he left my lips and he walks out the door with a big grin. I knew at that moment how to feel, I haven't been able to show my emotion like that, at least not in a long time.
'Why was he so different? What made him so special?'
I now believe in love, and soulmates. I know I have found mine and he was now everything to me. I shut the door, and I go upstairs happily skipping in my step. As if I was a silly teenager in love. I go into my room. For the first time in a while I felt peace, I lay myself down and close my eyes to find no sleep and a loud blaring alarm, a bright light that led to morning. No sleep great...
