Chereads / Oneirataxia / Chapter 26 - Hey! I didn’t give you permission to like me.

Chapter 26 - Hey! I didn’t give you permission to like me.

"Your clothes are a little big..." Alexandra walked down the stairs and sat next to me.

"What if it is a little big, you look cute in them and if you don't like them you can always take them off" I get up and start walking down the stairs and before I reach the bottom most platform I turn around and give Alexandra a smirk. If you haven't seen a really red tomato, her face would make a fairly good replica. For reference, that's how hard she was blushing, or was it my imagination?

"Oh you wish." She replied with a smirk on her face.

"Is that so? What if I really did? Would you be a sweetheart and grant my wish?" I asked again. She started walking down the stairs,

"I would have, had you not acted like a jackass" She walked by me with a sinister look on her face.

"I think this woman is gonna be the death of me."

A distant shout is hear from the table because we have a rule in the house where on the four major meals, that is breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner, we all have to be present and eat together. It started off as a joke because Ryder used to always be late (because he sucks at time management) but now everyone takes it extremely serious. I guess that's good.

"Can you get you ass over here already? We're starving." Ann replied from my seat on the table.

"Out of all the places, THAT'S WHERE YOU SIT?!" I replied furiously. "Get out of my place!"

"Yeah yeah? Can we just get started?" Ann stated, very frustrated may I add. 

"Ughh, fine. Dig in boys." I replied.

"Ahem!" Alexandra interrupted.

"Oh come on, you know what I mean."

"I have no idea what you're talking about." She replied with a smirk.

"OK, I'm getting tired of that face of yours." I said, grabbing her cheeks and squishing her face.

I think bullying is becoming my love language or, again was it always the case? Anyway I really to figure out what's going on. First the dream, now I know for a fact that that was a dream and not a premonition of the future, but now, on the other hand, the visions? Now that is a bit tricky. 

"How does one differentiate between fiction and reality?" I accidently said that out loud.

"Oneirataxia." Alexandra replied.

"What?" I replied.

"The answer to you question. The the literal definition of the sentence you just described, oneirataxia, the inability to distinguish between fantasy and reality." She stated.

"Oh, My bad, I didn't realize I said that out loud. How did you know that?" I asked.

"Know what? The term or the fact that you spoke? In case you're wondering you were pretty soft, I just happened to pay attention to you"

"You know what Alex? I'm starting to like you." I said giving her a smirky, side eye look.

"Hey! I didn't give you permission to like me." Alex replied.

"When?" I asked.

"What do you mean when?"

"When did you see me asking for your permission?" I replied.
