Before the dream

I got up about eight oclock in the morning, watched something on my laptop and then went back to bed. Now, I remember something on here about being able to Lucid dream more when you leave it two hours early in the morning then sleep again. Well, I decided to put that to the test not expecting much because a horrible part of me thought I'd lost the ability. I haven't.

In the dream

Soon enough, my surroundings came into view. Mum was calling me and I said, "I’m Lucid dreaming again, I have to do this! One sec!” I hovered into the air, saying goodbye to my cat who was sitting on the patio. Mum was shouting at me to come back but I ignored her and flew over the garden hedge.

Instantly, I saw all these brightly coloured flowerbeds below me. Then, I went SO fast. Incredible. Deciding I didn't want to keep going at Sonic speed, I lowered my arms to my sides and brought them behind me, slowing down. Then a MASSIVE bookshelf with someone looking at me through them appeared, think I saw a pair of eyes too though can't remember now.

I landed softly in a garden that sort of resembled mine but the dream garden was much bigger, with a bright sweeping lawn.

Now, I’m going to use a fake name here incase for some reason my crush happens to come onto this site. I don’t think he will, but just in case. Anyway, I have liked this guy for nearly eight years now It's a very sad story, but I had never been able to Lucid dream about him before in the past, or rather, I hadn't thought about it at the time. Now? I willed myself to think, “I need to dream about Aaron. This is my one opportunity. Please, brain.”

At first I was slightly worried because I became excited about the dream, but then I pushed that away and managed to control my surroundings. A silver Mercedes pulled up. Incredible. I hadn’t planned that but I know what kind of car he drives. Then, someone got out from the right hand side, an older man who I didn’t recognise. I went "No, brain. Aaron" and then BAM, Aaron got out of the car from the left hand side, spreading his arms and crying my surname! (The nickname he gave me at University.) I ran up to him and we embraced. It was a wonderful, aching feeling. I was here with him, but I knew none of this was outside the dream. I'm reminded of Inception again, Leo's world with Mauly.

“How are you?” I asked. Then I realised I was asking really generic things and I probably didn't have much time, so I got down to the nitty gritty. “Aaron, will you ever 'like' me in real life?” I didn’t have to say ‘fancy’ he knew what I meant. He just stared, looked away and said quietly, “I don’t think so.” An intriguing answer, not yes, not no. Of course I didn't really expect a straight answer because unless Aaron really was doing that with me in a parallell universe at that time, he couldn't give me that. Besides, Lucid characters are meant to be a representation of yourself aren't they, sometimes at least?

I walked towards him, and kissed him. I ran my fingers through his hair, and then we just fell onto the grass, rolling over and over. It was magical. There was no ending to the dream, it just stopped there.

I miss the guy so much.
