So I'm sitting there, and next to me is this girl. A girl I had rather liked, and went out with a few times, before I found out she found me uninteresting and ditched me to go watch some soccer player she liked. We're both sitting there, and as far as I can tell, there's no one else around. Seeing as we were in a football stadium, there was probably a game going on, but that didn't matter. Nothing else mattered.
I'm looking at her, and says to me: "You know, I think I was wrong about you. We had so much fun at that party last night. We should go out again sometime." I'm dumbfounded. I just sit there, staring at her, amazed. Ecstatic. Incredibly thrilled.
That was my mistake. After waiting for me to say something for a few seconds, she says "You see, that's why I got bored with you. You're too quiet. Goodbye." With that, she gets up and walks out. Gone. I'm too shocked to even turn to watch her leave. I just sit there, still looking at where she was, completely crushed. That now makes twice I've blown it, all beacuse I didn't know what to say.
And then I wake up.
We were on the street, and my girlfriend held her in her arms, in the softiest, kindest way I think I'll ever see in my life again. But I really wait for my sleep to come back to dream it one more time.
It's hard to explain a dream like this, but I saw my little daughter, my baby, another piece of mine, there, sleeping in my girlfriend's chest (in the same way and with the same face I always like to do myself), who was sitting in a park chair.
I think this image is going to last forever in my mind, and all I want with this WU is to immortalize it and share with the whole world perhaps the best thing I ever saw (or thought).
When I finally did fall asleep, I dreamed that Brian Desveaux of the band Nine Days started going to my university, and we had several classes together. He would always try to sit next to me, and we would flirt and pick on the teacher. He followed me around the whole day, I think we ended up making out before it was over.
Unfortunately that was about the extent of my dream. Oddly enough I have never found Brian Desveaux particularly attractive until I woke up this morning with a weird feeling that he liked me. It's funny the things one's brain can come up with from a touch of a cold.
Then the alarm went off.
