REMEMBRANCE [leola]

[redmund sage devereux]

He started to appear in her dreams again.

They attacked her in the form of nightmares from that night, but it wasn't just that. She remembered those blue eyes she'd loved so much, the gentle outline of his lips, the way he'd stroke her hair so lovingly--the way he'd caress her cheek at those intimate times. Suddenly, almost shockingly, Red began to wake up, with her heart aching, and her arms yearning for what no longer there.

But that was only during the night--Red knew better than to miss him. She was smarter than that.

When she woke up for the eighth time in a row, with her hair plastered to her face, and tears--tears--brimming in her eyes, she'd decided that enough was enough.

And so, instead of going to her classes, she'd decided to skip them all--her excuse was that she had some photo shoot she had to do--and stay in bed, deciding that after a day of rest, her mind should return to normal. Of course, she had no idea if it was going to work; were dreams even linked to the amount of rest you had? Probably not.

But who was she to complain?

Her drama books dumped in a pile on the floor, she, dressed casually in shorts and an over-sized top, slipped on her shoes and strolled out of her room, making her way to the school yard. Red wasn't worried about getting caught; this wasn't her first time. The trick was, you had to look like you belonged there--as if you weren't breaking the rules. Seriously. It was that easy.

It didn't take her long to reach the yard, and once she did, she lay down on the grass, stretching out her legs in front of her. Her hands locked tightly behind her head, Red closed her eyes under the sun, wondering what could've been.
