If I Saw You Earlier

Chapter 21

I woke up again. This time I was in a room. It wasn't my room. It was bigger and more beautiful. With a soft bed and those huge mirrors on that wardrobe.
There were no pictures on the wall, just a huge map. Showing this world.

The desk in front of the bed was full with papers and books. Then I saw it, the bag. It belonged to James.

I closed my eyes and thought about this. I am home. With James. I was sleeping in his bed. How did I come here? Weren't we on our way to LA?

I heard the door. It opened up slowly. Then footsteps walked towards the bed.

" my love, you look so beautiful when you sleep". He whispered those words as he touched my hair.

" I love you, and I am glad you are here. I hope you don't mind I brought you here". He said in a sweet voice.

" I know you are awake. Get up, take a shower so we can talk". He said while he laughed.

He walked out of the room. I got up, ran to the shower. As I came out I got dressed really fast in front of that mirror.

My hair looked fine. My eyes looked ok. What day was it?

" I opened the door. Looked around. The hall on the second floor was empty. I saw the stairs, so this house had more than one floor. James room was on the second floor.

" ahh, you are up!". James said with a glad voice.
" what? James I want to know what I am doing back home". I said. My voice was weird. As if I was screaming everyday.

" you had nightmares. That's why your voice is like this. I tried to hold you and make you feel calm". He said in a low voice.

" aren't we saving my brother?!". I asked in a voice I bearly knew it was mine.

" baby, let's talk later.. And we are not home.. We are in Australia". He said as he took my hand. Then he kissed me. I backed of and looked at him a very long time. He wasn't lying.

" you have way too much to explain". I said, both happy and sad.
