Running through the meadows hand-in-hand with someone whose face had never been revealed to me. The beat of my heart quickens, the pit of my stomach fills up with what feels like butterflies, and things that are ever unknown to me in reality wash over me whenever he is near. The unintelligible beauty that surrounds me; flowers of all colors and breeds, the scent of the wilderness around me. Hearing the sound of the wind rustling the grass about, to feel the wind upon my face, and my hair flowing within it. It was amazing, the adrenaline that I had felt at that moment. Laughing and running as we went, me and my other, acting like there was no tomorrow.
Soon - too soon - we came to a stop, more like my other had, I turn around to see the problem. Yet all I found was pure darkness, eyes widening I turn around to still find myself looking into nothing. Fright overtook me as I sank to my knees. Many different distinctions of screeches were heard. Some made my ears ring; others had made my body twist and thrash about. I had no control of my body. I could feel the thick blanket of death closing in. It felt as if I was burning and the smell of blood overwhelmed me. Other pains too foul to described took over me. Sweeping me up and leaving me gasping in its wake.
Just when I thought the pain would strike me mad before it killed me, crimson filled my vision. Blocking all other sources of light. A seething pair of crimson eyes. The indecipherable lust-filled gaze locked on me. Tears now spilled freely down my cheeks. I wanted to scream so badly, but couldn't, for the sound choked in my throat.I could not wretch me gaze from those blood-soaked eyes. My mind was blank and my body rooted to the ground. I could no longer feel the pain, for I was numb. Eyes now dried up of tears, blood shot and open wide, continued to bore into the eyes of the beast.
A deep snarl rang out in fury, both beautiful and ghastly. Instantly I broke away from the spell and spun around to find those familiar onyx eyes. I felt a gentle hand on mine as his other laid upon my cheek. Leaning in, he brushed his cheek against my other as I heard his musical voice whisper into my ear.
"Wake up, Rose, for this is all but a dream."
This is something I wrote awhile back at Disney World at the condo we were staying at. I've been wanting to write a book, but my literature skills aren't exactly at their best quite yet. Many ideas I have for my book and all. It's just really hard to know how to put it in words to catch the reader's attention. So far this is my favorite that I have written. If Gunge is reading this, I'd like you to correct me if you see errors. xd
