In a place where dreams can either thrive or die lived a boy named Rean Knight-Heart.
"Hey Rean you coming," asked my best friend tyler. "No I have to be home early today," I say nonchalantly, it may seem rude to people who don't know me but me and tyler have know each other since middle school so he's gotten used to my don't give a sh*t attitude.
I walk down the street to the donut shop and look up at the title Joshua's donuts. The bell on the door chimed as I walked in. "hey Rean how are you?" the owner of the store, Joshua asked, smiling brightly as usual "Normal." I say shrugging josh is another person who has learned to accept my don't give a sh*t additude. "what will it be today?" He ask happily "the usual 2 chocolate donut with a caramel frappuccino," I say nodding at him "alrighty then," he say walking to the counter telling one of the staff jacob to be precise my order Jacob and me don't get along or so i'm told I don't know why but he always seems to have it out for me none the less he takes his job seriously and won't mess with my orders.
I walk to one of the booth's closest to the exit I know some people would think i'm a total ass for blowing my best friend off for some donuts and coffee well let me tell you something unless you want to be in a karaoke room with a bunch of boys who sounds like dying rats I suggest you keep your opinions to yourself also tyler has way too many friends i don't like to be crowded.
"Order up." Josh says, setting my two donuts and coffee in front of me, sitting down across from me "So is there anything new you would like to talk about or any interesting things going on in your life?" He asked raising on eyebrow. "You ask me that everyday Josh and you always get the same answer so why keep asking?" I asked, staring at him while taking a bite of my donut "stop staring at me like that it feels like you're looking at my soul" he said laughing nervously. "Is there something in your soul that I shouldn't see?"
"That's...., Let's just say we all have a past we would rather not remember, Right?"
"I can't say I do." I said, eyeing him curiously, 'that's a lie.' I thought to myself waiting for him to speak "That's because you're still young, anyway I have to get back to work," he said, getting up and leaving the table.
I finish eating my donuts and drinking my coffee leaving the coffee shop behind. I walk to the crosswalk waiting for the light to say walk.
As I was waiting for the light to change a little boy ran into the street chasing after his ball, a truck was speeding down the street, but the little boy obliviously still ran after the ball. My instinct kicked in and I ran as fast as I could to the little boy grabbing him by his arm wrapping him up in my own, I was going to make a run for it but there was no time left so I used my body to shield the little boys body I felt the impact of the truck as it rammed into my back sending me flying with the little boy still wrapped tightly in my arms i hear people screaming from every direction, and footsteps stomping towards me.
This little boy reminds me of myself, I was once oblivious to unsuspecting people and trusted to easily because that person claimed to be my blood….my family, but I'm glad I was able to protect him even though no one was able to protect me, i thought to myself hopelessly laughing on the inside.
"Can you let him go so I can check on him?" I heard the voice of a lady ask. I slowly loosen my grip on the boy letting her take him from my arms "R-Rean," i hear a familiar voice call my name "J-Jacob," I managed to get out "Rean," he say placing his hand on the side of my face rubbing my cheek with his thumb "Rean you can't... die okay," he say sounding a bit choked up and his voice is cracking 'is he crying, I thought he would be throwing a parade if I had died not crying.' I thought to myself. I felt something warm and wet fall onto my cheek. 'yep he's definitely crying.' I thought to myself, listening to him. "Rean...you c-can't d-die because I...I love you" he finally managed to get out
"W-what?," I say, almost choking up blood. "I love you, you idiot," he said, pressing a kiss to my lips. "W-why are you... only s-saying this n-now you know i'm g-going to die right 'cough, cough' "Don't say that," he says his voice rising a little, I place my hand on his cheek "Maybe... In another life... 'cough, cough' when y-you have the c-courage to confess to m-me before i'm o-on my d-death bed, we can be t-together," these were the last words I said before losing consciousness 'that's how I 15 year old Rean Knight-Heart died, or so I thought.'
"Get you lazy ass up," a thundering voice rang in my head causing me to jolt awake "W-where am i?" I look around the wired looking forest.
"You finally woke up, your highness." a tall man with black hair and honey brown eye said looking me in my violet eyes "Y-your What, Where the heck am I and how did I get here?" I say glaring at him.
