First Dream

[drknss-bnd-lght.livejournal.com]

[As far as the eye can see there's only a field of grass with a light wind blowing. It's freezing cold, but the boy laying back to look at the stars doesn't seem to notice. Or, if he does, he's used to it. He's been here for a while, slowly watching them blink out of existence one by one. Each time they do he reaches up, sadness written on his face - in the air around him. He can't stop it, he knows that, but he reaches anyway, trying as hard as he can. As if that will help. It doesn't and as each one slowly winks out, he seems to curl up on himself - bitter, hurt - lonely. It seems like hours, but soon, there's only a handful left.

Ventus shivers, rolling over and curling up - He's alone. He shouldn't have tried. How does he reach the light anyway? He can't. Sitting up, he pulls out the pieces of his wayfinder, face an open book of abandonment and betrayal. Hurt and anger.] ....I wish...

[And flings it away as far and hard as he can, uncaring where they fall.

Overhead, several more stars wink out, the rest shining just that much fainter.] I've never known you if you were just going to abandon me.

[Ouch. That only hit .. extremely close to home.]

No one needs betrayers. They tend to show up uninvited.

[A nod.] Yea. Like Aqua and Terra.

But it's ok. I'm happy now. [A lie. He's not, but it's a lie he's told himself so many times.]

[She raises an eyebrow, but she feels like she knows them... Being here wasn't so fun that way.]

Right, me too. Happy as pie. ..Before it gets eaten. [She's curling into herself a bit, hardly trying to convince even herself.]

sob. they both need to stop being so emo. :|

... I haven't had pie in a long time. [Small pout. He's kinda hungry, too. ]

don't i know it ; ;

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

You know something? Me either. [She mimicks his pout, her own stomach getting a little rumbly.] Pie is better than melancholy stargazing, don't you think?

Re: don't i know it ; ;

Yea. Piue! And Icecream!

[Pause, then - manners. He still has them.] What's your name, miss dream lady? I'm Ven.

Mm, ice cream... [Smiling softly, she turns to offer him a hand.] Buffy. I'm Buffy, Mr. Dream Ven.
