Just a Dream

The evening was quiet as it turned from night to dawn. As the darkness became lighter, I began to wake up.
I had such a strange dream that night... A dream about a woman... A dream about love...

A man and a woman, together as if they had longed to be with each other, who loved one another with passion and desire. The man searched for her for what seemed forever, but he couldn't find her.
 As I got up from my bed, in the dark of the early morning, I thought to myself, "What a dream, what a dream, but was it real? Or was it just my imagination making up stories in my head again? But it felt so realistic! There is no way that it could have been just a dream."
 "When I saw the black-haired man yelling at the young girl, I felt as if she was me and I was terrified. He was so evil and cruel. I could feel my body quaking in fear as he screamed and raised his hand."
 "And when he slapped her, I felt the stinging pain on my face as his hand bruised her face. Then he took her away from her life and locked her away."
 "I could feel her pain and sorrow as her life was thrown away and she was left to fade away."
"So what was it? Another story in my head or a reality that I did not live?"
I turned on the light and then continued to think to myself about the dream some more.
I thought about all the people she met and how she was betrayed her entire life. She tried her best to survive every painful experience that came her way. She was so lonely and abandoned. I felt so sad.
After I finally woke up and realized that it was just a dream, I decided to call my boyfriend Flynn and see what he might think of my strange dream. I felt like I hadn't talked to him in ages, but it had only been a day.
Flynn picked up the phone quickly and I had no time to think of what I was going to say.

"Hey Jovi! What's wrong? You never wake up this early for school!" Flynn said to me.
"Hey, I just wanted to talk to you," I said in a weary voice.
"Oh babe, you can always talk to me. So what's going on?" he asked with concern in his voice.
"I had a dream. It was strange...," I said with a pause, "It was about me and you, I think."
"What do you mean? What did you dream about?" he asked.
"I don't know where to start," I said with a sigh.
"Think for a moment, I know you remember it. You do have a good memory," he replied.
"We had children, a boy and a girl," I said.
 "They were twins and they were the joy of our lives. One had pink and purple hair and eyes and the other had black and orange hair and eyes. I've never would have thought this before," I said to him.

"Oh do you want children? Already?" he asked me with hesitation.
"No, no. We are still young. I just dreamed it and it doesn't mean I want kids right now," I explained.
"Oh," he said.
"Yea...," I replied.
"But there was one more thing... we had wings and cat ears and tails," I said with a laugh.
"Huh?" he said, "Okay, so what were we? Angels or flying cats?"
"No, no, we were griffins and I was some kinda dragon griffin. I don't know! It was a dream!" I exclaimed.
"Just too weird, huh?" I laughed.
"Yes, maybe you should stop sniffing sharpie markers before bed," Flynn teased me.
"FLYNN! Don't say things like that," I yelled at him.
"Sorry! I was just kidding! I want you to cheer up, okay?" he replied.
"Oh okay, I'll try. I am going to get ready for school now babe!" I said with a giggle.
"Alright, see you at school!" he said.
"Love you!" I said.
"Love you back!" he said with a slight chuckle.
