“Running away is easy. It’s the leaving that’s hard.” Samuel T. Herring
Alessia’s “theory” stuck with me for the entire five-hour plane ride ~ long after we stopped talking
and she fell asleep again. Her words sent a chill down my spine. Was Griffin really going to hunt me
like prey?
A couple of hours into the plane ride, I ended up falling asleep too
but it was plagued with nightmares.
In my dream, I was a fox sprinting across the foggy forest. I was running away from something – I
didn’t know what — and tried to hide in a hollowed-out tree. I could hardly make out my
surroundings while I was tucked in my little hiding spot, but then I saw it: the monster that was
chasing me.
It was a large black wolf, bigger than anything I’d ever seen with piercing dark eyes and sharp
canines. Its familiar dark eyes met mine, and I knew it had me trapped. There was nowhere to run,
and all I could do was watch as it stalked closer and closer. And then it pounced, razor-sharp canines
headed for me as I – I shot up in my plane seat, heart pounding. That was a hell of a dream. But it
wasn’t real — it was just a dream. *)
I normally wasn’t one to dissect dreams, but even that nightmare felt a little too on the nose to me. I
had been running in the wolves as a literal fox — which was Griffin’s favorite nickname for me —
and the predator chasing me had been a wolf. Could the meaning get any more obvious than that? (°
Clearly, I’m freaked out about what Alessia told me before I fell asleep
and now my fears are manifesting in my dreams.
My heart continued to pound. Although Griffin and I were probably hundreds of miles apart by this
point, the thought of him still managed to put me on edge.
“Passengers, please make sure you’re seated with your seatbelts on. We’re beginning our descent,
and we’ll be wheels down at LAX in minus twenty minutes,” the pilot’s voice croaked through the
speakers.
The feedback from the speakers roused Alessia from her own cat nap. Judging from the way she
lazily stretched out, it looked like her dreams had been a lot better than mine.
