11 Im...Awake.

Ive never flung myself out of bed so fast before. the cold hard wood floor reassuring me im awake. the black room making me uneasy. "It was a dream, im ok." i back myself up against my door and reach up to my lamp on my computer desk. flicking it on im temporarily blinded by the light. the thought of the darkness making my stomach churn. rubbing my eyes, they adjust and there im met with a blue and green set looking back into mine. Before i can even let the scream escape my mouth is covered. "shhh. im not going to hurt you. i swear i wasnt going to." Aridius' hair a disheveled mess, and his face twisted with concern. my breathing heavy as i try to relax. he puts his hand down and sit back on his heels. "What.The.Fuck! what happened?! You have a brother?! and and i almost died!" i could feel my throat tighten and my eye start to sting. " yes i have a sibling. ive been keeping away from him because of this." He leans his forehead against mine and the softest whisper "I'm sorry." Was enough for the flood gates to open. I cudnt stop crying if I wanted to. It was just a dream, it was just a dream. Each wrecking sob coming from my sore throat getting horsed as they keep coming. The reality is that I don't know if it was JUST a dream and that terrifies me.

The time kept slowly ticking by for what felt like years until she stopped crying. The now asleep KC in my arms completely passed out from exhaustion and the crying making her checks red and tender. Her eyes are swollen and pink. Tears stain her face and her lips.. the two pale rose petals.
