Now that you're "awake" in your dream, you going around and explaining to everyone you meet how you've just had a lucid dream - you're DREAMING of telling people of a lucid dream, without one actually occurring.
That is a false awakening, which is very common. However, the part that you're confusing yourself on is that you "woke up" and decided to tell everyone that you had a lucid dream. Why? Did you do this involuntarily because your dream Forced you to tell people you had a lucid dream, or did you just have a little control and thought you'd just waken up from a lucid dream, and made the Decision to tell people it was a lucid dream that you'd woken up from?
If it was the first, then you were just having a non-lucid dream, in which your dream self "woke up" into a false awakening (from a dream that you admit to knowing wasn't lucid) and just told people in your FA dream that you had a lucid dream, for no reason
Or
You thought you'd really woken up, (during the false awakening) and decided to go around telling people that you had a lucid dream, for no reason.
The point of confusion is why, in the false awakening, you were telling people you'd just had a lucid dream, when you didn't, because the dream before the false awakening wasn't lucid anyway.
I get where you are a little confused, but that scenario wouldn't be "dreaming of a lucid dream," it is more "dreaming of Telling people you had a lucid dream, when in fact, you didn't."
