A Dark Love To Hold

Slowly, I open my eyes as I feel a sudden warmth throughout my cheek. I blinked a few times while I try to adjust to the light. The same small fragile women I see only in my dreams stands before me, smiling gently.
"Jack it's almost time.",she whispered. Her eyes getting slightly glossy and her tiny hand moves along to my forehead, kissing it then stands straight again.
"Even if it's May or your father......they aren't strong as he is. Only he can protect you Jack please understand and let him in.",i reach out and take her hand in mine. Something about her makes me feel....cared for. More than what I feel with my sister or father, it just doesn't seem the same. I don't have the slightest clue why but she's very persistent.
"Who are you?",i managed to ask. Knowing that it's time I finally know who this women is.
"Soon you'll know. The seal is almost broken and I will no longer warn you let alone guide you. So let him protect you.",She then again rests her hand on my cheek, caressing it even. Then whispers ,"Wake up" causing me to wake from my dream.


I sit up and place my own hand on the cheek she touched. It's still warm. Somehow it feels just like a mother's touch. A mother's touch. I shake my head slowly, letting my hand move to the front of my head. Why can't I remember my own mother? Dad has told me she left after giving birth to me and hasn't mentioned her since. I honestly don't care if she left because of me but I want to question if she ever did think of me at some point. I yearn for a mother and I don't and will never have one again. I believe that when somethings truly lost, one will never get it back again. I drop my hand to my lap feeling my heart swell with sadness and a tight knot forming down my throat.
Turning to look at the clock, reading 2:05, I slowly got out of bed. Making my way to my window, I reach out to move the curtains when I notice a slight movement. Immediately I drop my hand and jump back. Did the curtain just move? On it's own? No, it can't be I'm just very tired to the point where I'm hallucinating. Yeah, that's it. Closing my eyes, I take a a deep breath in and slowly letting it out. I reopen my eyes then decide to try once more. Slowly I reach out, fingers barely touching the soft fabric when it begins its same action only it's moving along with my fingers.
This can't be happening right now. This can't possibly be real. I think it's best to just lay down and began to walk backwards to where my bed is and laying down, pulling the covers over my head and bringing my knees to my chest. I pray that sleep takes over.


"So Jack, when do you think you should wake up?", I groan and turn my head slightly to where May is.
"It's almost 7 hun. Get up and get ready for school before your late. Before you go though dad and I need to talk to you.",she placed her hand on my head and left. I signed, the feeling isn't the same and I frown.
Obediently, I did what May had asked me to do and made my way downstairs. I walk into the kitchen, setting my bag down next to me while I take a seat in front of May and dad.
"Jack it's almost your birthday so dad and I were thinking, you should have time off school and will all go somewhere.", May is grinning but it seemed off.
"Hm as good as that sounds I have finals next week and this week teachers are reviewing the material so I can't miss it.",somethings up....i can feel it.
"Don't worry then all talk to your teachers so let's just go.", May reached out, trying to touch my cheek but somehow dodged it to her surprise. I grabbed my bag and back way from them.
"I need to go before I'm late....",i muttered an closed the door behind me, blocking out the call of my name. I went down the path to school when I noticed that my surroundings seem a bit out of place then it hits me. Someone is watching me.
I picked up my pace and walked more faster, which in my case will definitely go bad. I hear quick foot steps of one? No it's than that, and the panic starts to form. Just when I'm about to run I feel a body slam into me and a pair of arms around my waist. I freeze, having no clue as to who's hugging me and only having there hands to see. Who ever is hugging me giggled
"His right huh? We did see each other again."
