“You’re a beautiful love crazed fan who just happens to have the best singing voice Dex probably has ever heard,” Sadie countered.
“That’s not true,” I looked down at my feet, watching them, wishing they weren’t so incredibly big.
“Stop thinking so down on yourself!” Sadie punched me in the arm playfully. “You are gorgeous, an amazing singer, and have a great personality! What more could Dex want?!”
“He also smiled at you... and he doesn’t do that for just anyone,” Delilah added. Sadie grinned.
“See? Dex likes you,” Sadie said triumphantly.
“Not true,” I said softly, “and even if he did, it wouldn’t matter. We live in completely different worlds. I’m sure he’s not going to try to look for me, and it’s not like we’re going to bump into each other at the supermarket. There is no way we’re going to meet up ever again.”
Sadie touched my hand gently, “You can always hope, Eve.”
“You don’t understand, Sadie,” I leaned my head against the deluxe leather headrest, closing my eyes.
“I have hoped since I was little that Dex would somehow, in some way, be with me,” I shook my head regretfully. “Look where that’s gotten me.”
I surrendered myself to sleep, hoping that my slumber would wipe the misery away.
“Eve?”
I was floating on a wish. Nothing could hold me down... I was dancing among the silver stars, embracing the moonlight, spinning circles around the farthest planet. I was untouchable.
Invincible.
Something that couldn’t be tarnished or sabotaged. I was a precious jewel, and I was lighting the whole world. Every person adored me, the Earth itself singing praises to me, glory from all over, almost suffocating me with it’s force.
“Eve!”
I jumped over any obstacle, I climbed to the goal, awing my competitors into submission. There were no strings to hold me down. I was free...
“Eve!!!”
Except, I could feel a slight tremor through the Earth, a quick intake of breath, a terror I couldn’t imagine. It was a phenomenon, a destructive whirlwind, a monster with endless power. I took a step back from the creature that appeared before me. Strangely, though, its presence terrorized me, but it also comforted me, made me feel like a princess. It invigorated me, energized me, and was something I could always count on. It was something... that loved me.
And I loved it back.
It was hiding in the shadows, barely a whisper in the deathly night. I called to it, my voice soaring to him. It cautiously stepped out to meet me...
“EVE!!!” Sadie shook me awake. I groaned in protest, wanting to shut my eyes and feel the dream wash over me, soak my soul again in the richness of the land that humans can’t touch, but feel. The worst part was I didn’t get to see the monster’s face.
My monster’s face.
“Please, Sadie,” I sat up, “Don’t wake me,”
“I just did,” she smirked, “I’ve been trying, and unsuccessfully, to wake you up for the last five minutes. Now that I’ve gotten you awake, I’m never letting you go back to sleep.”
I shrugged, a little angry at her for interrupting my dream, “Whatever.”
“I bet you’ll scream when you hear this,” Sadie said excitedly. I perked up.
“Will it make up for the fact that you destroyed my dream, smashing it into one million shards of sharp glass?” I wondered. She ignored that comment.
