Dream: The Lady of Tomorrow
I awoke, gently as if I had lulled to sleep before. I didn't jerk, I didn't move. I opened my eyes and sighed, feeling the pleasant sun heat warming my face as it rose from a sunrise on the horizon. Next to me a sleeping beauty with shimmering black hair, soft skin, and a small smile layed in my arms. We were both without clothing, but some how I knew that we hadn't done anything the night before. My nether regions weren't sticky with DNA from another person. How I know how that feels, I will never know, but it's what I felt at the time.
I laid there, watching her sleep for a moment. Her breathe in a sweet tempo. Her eyes were still closed and her lips only slightly parted. I hugged her and rubbed her back softly. She edged closer and felt me back. "Hey Love," I said, I wasn't in control, this happened based upon what I couldn't do and what I experienced. She smelled sweet. She smiled without opening her eyes. "Morning Poppet." "Don't you ever call me darling any more?" I kissed her fore head, it was for some reason a force of habit.
"I would, but then you'd feel special... You already have me, why do you need to feel anymore than you actually are?" Her smile widened. She still hadn't opened her eyes yet, though she was especially lovely with them closed. Her breath was hot, and smelled of, well, we were in the morning, it wasn't the best, but neither was mine. "While you may still be right, I still want to hear you say it..." "Fine... You're an idiot. A big idiot. Who has nothing to do with his life other than hugging me and bowing to my every whim... Now go make me a sandwich." She giggled, or laughed, or snickered, hard to tell. It was confusing, but cute to me.
"Atleast I'm an idiot in love with his mistress..." "Blech." "What? Oh, are you letting the slave free? Yay... Now we can be equals and live happily ever after..." "Pft... No... You're still my b***h. I just don't like the gushy stuff when it's..." Some words aren't exact on, but it hits the mark when it needs to. She turned back hiding her eyes from me to look at the clock, before closing her eyes and going back. "It's... Eleven in the morning..." "We slept in again didn't we?" "Yeah... But I think it was worth it." "It's always worth it." "It is..." She sighed kissing me, still without opening her eyes.
"Hey, Honey. I think that some one is watching in on us?" "Huh? Who?" "Do you remember when I told you about a dream long ago, just like this? It was a while, but I have it written down some where." "Yeah... Well no, but you had many dreams remember. And you still can't get me right in them." "Yeah... Well. I think this, this moment right now is one of them... Just us, right here in the bed." "How?" "It just is, I can feel it, I'm pretty sure he's, I, I am going to write about this... Just this moment right here. Want to say anything to write down?"
She sighs, "Yeah... Can you please just stay asleep? I wanted a few more hours..." I smiled. "I'm not going to listen..." "Well, get over your silly dreams. It may be sweet, but sleep feels better right now." "Okay dear... I love you." "I love you two Darling." "You said it!" "Now get up and make me a sammich... I'm hungry and you never feed me..." I smiled. Staying right there, she smiled back, about to open her eyes... Until the alarm clock rang again. I bolted my eyes open, and tried to get that dream back. No dice.
I never get enough time to see the ending, I never even got to remember her face all that much! That's just not fair future... Unless it is to protect paradox... In that case... It's still not fair! Until next dream...
