Chereads / Altering the Future / Chapter 4 - The Headache

Chapter 4 - The Headache

Beautiful green eyes have met mine. Strangely mesmerizing, piercing in to my mind. These eyes feel so familiar yet strange at the same time. Could it be that my mind is playing tricks on me? Why does it feel like I'm falling in to his eyes? His eyes are spreading a green colored light that keep stealing my attention. Am I falling in love? Is this what love feels like? He definitely is my type.. My vision and hearing are fading, my memories are slipping away. I can feel them being taken from me, being ripped from my mind. I want to hold on to them. Take back what is mine. I want to scream, run away, fight back, but I can't do anything; I'm frozen once again. Could it be that I'm dreaming? I can already feel my soft bed beneath me. My soft pillow beneath my head. The warmth of it hugging my body. I'm relaxing in a strange way. It feels like I'm losing control. **'No! I will never leave you behind!'** a flashback crosses my mind. And then I realize..

Those green eyes that feel oh so strange and familiar at the same time. I remember it now. I've seen them before, in my dream, today. A cold but warm, a light but heavy a strong but weak thrust of energy surges through my veins. My body adapts itself to the energy. I can feel my body awakening. My hearing is slightly coming to its senses because a loud sound reaches my eardrum, an alarm maybe? Or a fire alarm? No, I also can hear people walking across, talking to each other, I'm at a public place. I hear children and locker doors. I'm at a school, my school! Opening my eyes in one go, I witness the green light surrounding my vision dimming and getting eaten by a blue light coming from my side. My vision is back, but it's rather different, it's slower than usual? I can see every detail in his eyes.

I once again look in to the stranger's eyes; the surge of energy pumping through my veins reaches my head and the spreading blue light is getting stronger and taking over the green light till there's no green more left. I can see his green eyes in front of me starting to shift. A blue tint appears in his eye. My senses are fully back, even stronger than before. I can hear everything clearly and more brighter. Yet again another loud alarm sound crushes against my skull. My eardrums vibrate at an unstoppable speed. A strong headache takes over my brain. Pain rips me apart. I'm dying aren't I? This is the end I think by myself. All my senses slowly shut down. I feel familiar arms taking me in and carrying me while my consciousness slowly fades away.

Waking up in my bed at my house, I get frustrated. Was it all just a dream? No, that can't be can it? This one felt even more real than the one before if thats even possible.. The crackling of my door while it's opening takes my attention. Seeing Olivia coming inside and right after the entrance of the person carrying those beautiful green eyes. "Jessica, you finally woke up!" my mother runs towards my bed bumping them, hugging me and landing several kisses on my face. "You fell unconscious at school. Thank god your friends were around to help you! Once again, thank you guys!" My mother sobs.

The part with the glowing eyes was probably a creation of my imagination I think by myself. Yeah, that must be it. "Yes, thank God they were around, who knows what would have happened to me if not. I would like to thank them in private, mom. Can you give us some space?" she nods and I give her one last kiss on the cheek and she leaves the room. "So are you guys ready to explain about what happened?" I command.

Jacob comes closer to me and leans in to my face; strengthening his stand by placing his hands on my bed. So manly. His curly dark blond hair reaching out for his eyes. Studying his eyes more and being mesmerized once again I see the change in them; they are not the same as I remember them. I catch two tiny blue marks in each outskirt of his eyes. Could it be that all what has happened was actually real? Maybe he's not the guy from my dreams? How do I explain the familiarity then? The bond we share.. I only realize it while thinking about it. There is actually a bond between us. Looking in to his eyes I can see the blue marks flashing a blue light. My own eyes respond the same way. "So sweetheart, if you're feeling better now, can you explain what you've done to me?" Jacob said with a smirk. Olivia chuckles. And I choke.
