Chereads / Drown Me In Deep / Chapter 6 - Strangely, horrifyingly delightful.

Chapter 6 - Strangely, horrifyingly delightful.

I shake my head as I stretch out my legs and lazily open my eyes to look up at the sky.The purple sky….with green clouds.Strange…but I'm not surprised.I sit up arching my back getting it to straighten up since I didn't know flowers could be as hard as a rock and as sharp as glass. Unconsciously, I look at my wrist to check for any weird bruises or bites I might've gotten but I don't see any of that , instead, my eyebrows furrow and my nose scrunches as I look at a dainty, elegant pearl strung on to a thin vine tried around my wrist.

" what the hell?" I gasp as I'm suspicious of the object and feel very paranoid that it might be evil despite its enchanting appearance .

It is extremely eye catching but I have to take it off. I pull once , twice and I soon find myself using all my might to rip off the bracelet, but to no avail.I grit my teeth and let out a frustrated sigh as I can't seem to separate this beautifully deceiving piece of jewellery which seems to be sown in to my hand.

I guess me and the bracelet are inseparable now and I'm just going to have to tolerate that. Not wasting anymore time, I stand up, crack a few bones and ….. start walking again.Except I remember that now there's a lake in front of me and I'll have to cross it to get over to the other side. The other side which does not look promising and painfully identical to the one I'm already standing on.

I stare at the lake almost as if I'm pleading for it to help me. Tilting my head, i wince and I pout in defeat since all I can see are blue roses around me.Useless,Haunting, poisonous blue roses stinging my insides and it hurts like hell.

At this point I'm completely hopeless and I don't really know what I'm going to do . So, for god knows what reason, I grab onto the white rose around my neck and clasp it between my hands with crystal clear tears falling out of my eyes as I look at it hopefully.An emotion which comes out of me unconsciously every time I look at it . Why does the same object make me feel so many emotions?

Suddenly, my legs start taking me closer and closer to the lake and I don't know how. I'm hesitant and try to stop them but it's like they have a mind of their own as they take me closer to the edge of the lake.My heart starts beating vigorously as I kick the roses in order to stop but I keep mindlessly walking towards the water until…..I'm gasping and frantically moving my hands around.What have I done? I don't even know how to swim , I'm going to drown . I start to look for something to reach onto but as I shake my head and bullet my eyes all over the place, I feel like the water has abandoned me.

You traitor.

You're just going to flow and let me drown as I take my last hopeless breaths. But I was wrong, I didn't notice it at first, but the waves were pushing me towards the shore, closer and closer helping me swim even when I couldn't. I felt the waves carry me and I didn't feel worried anymore.

I finally made it. I'm at the shore inhaling the sweet salty air. I look at the lush neon green grass. Grass. not blue roses.

I can't explain how ecstatic I was to escape those suffocating blue roses which made me choke and feel nauseous.Shivering and icy cold, I stood up on my feet to gain some ground so I could dry and feel warmer. As I walk, I hear violin music playing beautiful notes dancing around my head making me sway and attracted towards it. There it is again, music, this is the second time a tune has gravitated me towards something in this strange world and I don't know if it's wonderful or horrifying.

Well, now I've arrived at my next destination filled with empty air and violin music coming from loud speakers in an atmosphere which could only be described as nothingness. There are no sights of people and all I can see in front of me is a Ferris wheel. An enormous, colour drenched Ferris wheel.Each seat had a different colour and every colour was complimented by an ornament. I was blinded in the most splendid way possible.
