Dream a little Dream of Me

"I think I lost my imagination when I discovered that the things from my nightmares are real. When I just wanted things to be normal." BrokenTear sounded so sad as he said that, but also thoughtful. I hummed again to show I had heard him, but I was at a loss for words.

Nightmares were reality. That was something I had long ago come to understand, back when my world consisted of a dark room and my sister. I didn't know what to say to him, to somehow make things light again. It seemed wrong somehow, to just brush away what he'd said.

"Nightmares?" I asked softly, not entirely sure if I wanted to know. This seemed like something that should be tread upon very lightly. Still, I couldn't help but laugh softly, a somewhat bitter laugh in the face of my usual cheer.

"I didn't know there was a difference between nightmare and reality, only our perceptions of it," I stated, "Not to mention the definition of normal is highly debated. What is normal to you, BrokenTear?" I asked, curious and sluggish and somewhat sad all at once.

I felt embarrassed when Forever mentioned my previous shower, my cheeks feeling hot. I had forgotten for a moment that I'd had one. Now that I thought about it, my stomach felt cold. Thankfully, my sweet boy didn't mention my memory slip and simply told me I could wander around, though where I had no clue.

I finished my food in record time and stood up, the chair scraping loudly against the floor. I put my dishes into the sink in the adjoined sink and then pulled the shirt I had been given on, and then stopped where I stood in thought.

I had no idea where I would go from here, mainly because there was so much I could do in a castle like this. But I didn't want to be away from Forever. I truly enjoyed his company, and I liked to think he enjoyed mine.

Decision made, I searched out his essence via shadow and went to wait for him.
