After telling him everything I knew, he smiled down at me, in my heart, I knew I could trust him.
I couldn't help but wonder, what had happened to me before everything went black, and then I apparently died.
It had to be something bad, in order to kill me. But would knowing kill me or cause me harm? All I can think of is that I want to know, I had to remember, because I don't even know my own name.
I wanted to know, I wanted to hear him say my name. I wanted to hear him say my name from those beautiful plump lips of his.
I want to remember who I was.
Pushing all thoughts aside, I tuck my head into his warm firm chest and close my eyes. For now I am safe, for now I feel happy.
I will try to remember as time goes by. I let sleep take me to where ever my dreams may go.
"Get her," I hear as I continue running, I can't shift yet, I'm not old enough to, so I keep running, if only I can make it out of this forest, if only I can make it to the road, "if you can't capture her alive kill her," I hear as I continue to run. Then everything goes black."
I jolt awake crying and screaming, fear over taking my mind.
"Shhhh. It's ok," I hear a voice say, as arms pick me up and start rocking me, "your safe, baby," the voice says. "Just open your eyes and you'll see it was just a dream," he says again.
I open my eyes and meet his steel grey eyes. I hug myself to him. He's still rocking me, and petting my hair as he runs his hand down my back comforting me.
"I think I remember something," I say as my tears stop flowing. He looks at me but doesn't say anything, letting me decide when to tell him.
"I was running in my dream, someone was trying to catch me, said, don't let her escape, I continued to run, the he said if I can't be captured then kill me, just then everything went black, they killed me. I was trying to get away."
"What's a road," I ask. He looks at me sadly, "it's what you were on, when I....when I accidentally hit you with my car," he says.
I look at him, "the lights,"I ask. He nods his head, "I'm so sorry, I didn't see you till it was to late," he says. "It's ok, you found me, that's what matters," I look at him.
His eyes are watery, "I didn't know what a road was, well I couldn't remember, I was tracking something sweet smelling, and I lost it on the dirt and rock, I saw the lights then, I was to scared to move, then the lights hit me. It hurt, I got up, looked at them one more time and ran. I remember my whole side hurt, I ran as far as I could then laid down," I tell him.
He nods, "I went home and ordered everyone to find you, I needed you, I needed to know you were ok, I went back and tracked you, I found you and brought you here, home," he tells me.
"Home," I agree. "I am home with you," I say looking at him. His whole face smiles back at me, his eyes sparkle and his smile almost making them close from happiness.
I cuddle into him, happy that I made him happy, because something in me wants to do everything I can to keep him happy.
