Red dragon

When I opened my eyes I was at this kick ass party and I saw so many beautiful people surrounding me. I met this girl named Evie and she kept telling me that this wasn't the right place for me to be. I continued to push my way through people offering me a drink every few seconds. Each person I met I realized there was something wrong with them. They had a glimmer in there eye. The the time of glimmer than made you want to listen to anything and everything they wanted to say. It was the type of glimmer of fear where it slowly grabbed a rope tighting it self like a sailors knot. I continued to mosey my way past the see of empty eyes. They all started to notice me. I was the only person not fugged up out of my mind on drugs that were scattered across most of the tables. I found that these people at this house were all wandering around looking for something to hold on too. They looked like they were hungry for something more. I continued asking them who's party this was, yet each word I tried to say my throat got tighter and it was hard to breath in this atmosphere. It was like there was no oxygen left for me to take. I was growing weary of my time being in this space. I was getting overwhelmed by the see of people who were more focus on being a herd than listening to my voice. I was the only person that didn't feel right. I knew I didn't belong with these people. Then I childhood friend appeared to me, one that passed away. I was bewildered seeing her face for the first time in years. Her name was Erin, she tragically died by taking her own life. I didn't know why she was there. I know she didn't belong there either. 

Erin: "Why are you here?"

Cc: "What do you mean. I don't know why I am here!"

Erin: "You need to change Cc this is the reason why you are here.."

Cc: "I need to change? What does this have to do with me being at this party? I have just been exploring around. I don't know why you are acting like this?"

Erin: "You need to get out of here. This place isn't meant for you. You know it Cc. When were were younger you were so much better than this. Why can't you see that!"

Cc: "You can't tell me where I should be okay Erin! I don't know why I am here but all I know is one thing. Hurt people hurt people. I should be here..."

After she looked into my eyes she mirrored all the pain and hurt I felt at that moment. I knew at that moment my soul was brought there for a reason. It was to see her. I stared at Erin one last time with my heart on my sleeve being stabbed by millions of needles of all sizes. I don't know why she was there but in a way. I couldn't let her save me. I watched her ascend to the sky reaching her hand out for me to grab it. I turned around and I knew I would not ever look back. I was too hurt to see her here. Especially when I felt bound to be there. Fighting the urge to cry I kept pushing my way through the sea of lost souls. The more sad I became the more angry I started to become. I pushed people out of my way. There eyes all started gravitating towards me. I finally found this glass sliding door leading to outside of this house. Finally, I felt some kind of relief be smothered in this house full of people talking nonsense.

I grabbed the handle of the door and I pulled it open so I could just barely squeeze out of the intoxication. That was when I found the safe haven I needed so desperately. In the house it was dark as night but this place was different. It was bright with light and it smelled of hints of jasmine and foliage growing around me. I was so mesmerized by this beautiful zen garden I found myself getting lost in it. The sound of a running water was near yet I couldn't find it. I went down a cobblestone path that was light and clear. I continues to hear birds and other creatures around me. I felt at peace. I found the spot where the water started so I followed it down further. I began to hum a tune of peace and prosperity. Then I came around a tall tree and it's bark smelled like fresh rain after a storm passed. I continued down the path of the garden when I noticed it.

A red dragon that was as big as a young horse and it skin looked rough of scales. It was breathing fire every couple of seconds. As I descended the hill I got closer to this dragon. I need to see it closer. I was so afraid yet I was calm to see this beautiful sight. I walked up to the dragon close enough where I could touch it and that it when it stopped breathing fire. It gazed into my eyes and I knew it wouldn't hurt me. I looked deep into its eyes and it did to me. I was mesmerized by this dragon and it seemed to be enchanted by me there. 

The moment I blinked I was no longer in this world. My iPhone alarm continuously rang until I pressed snooze. I wanted to go back. To see the red dragon.
