A few days later…..
Lara, are you okay dear? My dad asked looking all worried. Guess I really have been acting weird these days. Stella came forward with the same worried look as my father.
Okay! Let's hit a ! We are going to have some fun! This idiot made everything so serious. Isabella said so sudden, that I felt my heart beat fast with surprise. Why can't she ever be normal? But maybe going to a club will really help…..
That same day…..
I take it back! Whatever I said about going to a club helping me, I take it back!
The club was bustling with music and alcohol. We made our way to the counter when I felt something... The same presence! He's here! The fact sent a shiver down my spine not out of fear but something completely different. Isabella was now dancing in the dance floor like a rabid dog. Isn't she supposed to be, you know, a bit more shy and reserved? Like people in parapsychology are like that, aren't they? Wow now I sound like a mean person! Well it doesn't matter anyway!
Spill it! Tell me what you are thinking about all this time! Claire asked me, while a "I-know-it-all" look was plastered on her face. I hate that look on her. That look means that she's not going to stop until she gets what she wants.
Nothing..... just a little something... I said while still thinking about him
Something or someone? She asked with a devilish grin on.
I shot my head fast, when I heard the question. Is she serious? (The reaction was done involuntarily) Claire laughed at me for an eternity before she finally calmed herself down.
So, who's the lucky guy who caught miss oleander's eye? She said with a stupid grin glued on her face.
He's .... How should I say this?... You know how I always get these nightmares, right? I paused for a bit when I saw Claire nodding vigorously as an answer to my question. I chuckle a bit before starting again. And you remember what happened this morning, right? Again she nods her head. Silly Girl.
At that time, the nightmare didn't quite feel like a dream. It felt as if it was in the border line of dream and reality. It was not real but it was not a dream either. Something that could harm me but can't harm my physical state. It was something truly weird, the thing which was trying to attack me looked so sad… almost as if she didn't want to do it. But then suddenly "he" appeared. He was not a human... but rather something more beautiful and mysterious, something more alluring. And in a blink, he took care of that thing. I don't know how but he did! And when the creature was disappearing, she looked so happy and relieved and guilty. And a bit sad, as if she's sad because she has to leave so soon. At that moment , I felt, myself waking up, but before closing or maybe opening my eyes. I saw that he had horns. And rather than being scared, I felt attracted towards him. You see, I can sometimes feel his presence lingering around me, and his presence is... always so comforting, familiar but whenever I feel his presence I feel intense longing, so much that it makes my heart hurt with sadness.
Claire sat there, dumbfounded, her eyes big with surprise and something else.... Fear? Does she know something?
