𝓛aying down always gets me lost in my very own thoughts. this time, I've been thinking of memories I had with my mother back then, one's where mom takes me on swimming lessons.
"ready?" she asks "you have to let go, brielle" talking about the side of the pool where I was holding on to "I can't" younger brielle argues "you really can. you just have to try." she persuaded
"I did try" I frowned "no, you didn't"
"we have been in the same position for 15 minutes. please. come on. just do it once with me" she pleaded
"can we go home now?" I whined "brielle, we paid for this class" she yells in frustration earning glances from the other parents taking swimming lessons with their children "you know I wouldn't ask you to do this if it wasn't safe, right?"
"brielle it could be dangerous for you if you don't know how to do this. one day, it could be really, really important and I may not be there to help you when that happens, so I need to make sure you can do it." she got more frustrated, shaking me in her hands
"breathe" younger brielle muttered "what?" her mother shakes her head in disbelief "just breath, mom. that's what you always tell me to do"
"you'll always be here" except she wasn't. there I was back at the place that always seemed to be where my nightmares occur. what is this place anyway? why do I keep dreaming about this? I look around, screaming her name
"hello again, little hero" a voice whispered. it was the same guy in every one of the nightmares I've been having "what sort of trouble are you up to now? hmm?" "a forbidden child attracts attention. a forbidden hero? well... they attract doom"
"she is coming."
I stare at the dark room seeing nothing but black, wondering if the people I were with are asleep "hey, are you asleep?" I whisper trying not to wake anyone who was "yes." luke answers, of course that's what he'd say.
"you and thalia were really close, right?" I asked the guy beside me "yeah" he sighed before replying "what was she like?" I turn my head to the position luke was in, still laying down "she was the last forbidden kid before me, right?" I continued
"she was tough." he answers, turning his head to my direction as he was laying down, we were now facing each other. "is that why you care about me? cause i'm like her?"
