Chapter 56: Love Is In The Air
AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
FOR GODDAMN SAKE!
"DID I REALLY JUST SAID THAT"
AND WHY AM I JUST REALISING THAT THE NEXT DAY?!
"What should I do, How should I act, when exactly should I say something, this is pure PAIN!-" A pain, I'm not enduring alone...
"-THIS IS TOO MUCH AHHHHHHH" Hans and Dereck screamed together running in circles.
"AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH" We continued screaming all together dearly hoping, our neighbors don't hear us screaming like maniacs.
"OH LORD HOLD MY DIVA" Hans held his hand high up in the air while throwing himself flawlessly on Dereck, who caught him immediately.
"Enough Tea for today, bring the Holy water Holly, quickly!"
Nodding in response, I opened the drawer and picked up a glass, filled it water and ran back to Hans who was now lying on the ground.
"Here"

On a rainy day, I stood all alone in front of the schoolyard, waiting for my mother to arrive.
While looking at my surroundings, people walked with their umbrellas in their hands through the rain. Some of them alone and some with a company. I immediately regretted not bringing a umbrella with me and stomped unknowingly on the ground.
"Do you need this?" A man asked me, pointing me a red umbrella in his hands. He was wearing a grey suit and a hat in the same color of his clothing.
Slowly nodding, I reached out my hand to take the umbrella but stopped in mid air, taking it right back.
"I-I can't sir" I shyly said, looking to the ground.
"May I ask Why?"
"My Mama told me, I shouldn't talk and take things from strangers"
Silence.
"Did she really said that?"
"Y-yeah"
Silence.
"Then she must be a good mother" he trailed off, took my hand and handing me the umbrella.
"I don't like the color red, so I give it to you anyway"
"What about you sir? It's pouring a lot, you will get wet too!"
"I don't need it. It's the umbrella of someone I know pretty well. Since she's gone far away, I need to give it to someone who could use it instead of her" he said , his gaze to the road behind me. For the last time looking down to me, he turned around and disappeared in the rain.
While looking into the direction, where the stranger walked off, I didn't noticed my mother calling my name from the car.
"Now get in! And where did you got this umbrella?!" She angrily asked me and took away the umbrella from my hand.
"It's from a really humble man-"
"A stranger?! Have you gone nuts?! You shouldn't have had taken it at first place!" She said, throwed the umbrella out of the window and drove off.
The day slowly passed away afterwards and the new day started to begin. The only thing that didn't changed was the odd feeling in my stomach and I didn't understood why...
"Never take things from strangers, have you understood me?!"
"Yes mom" I leaved the car and walked directly to the school entrance. While doing so, my mother drove off and the voice from one of my classmates stopped me walking any further.
"Daddy, can I have this umbrella?"
"Better leave it there, the person who lost it, will search for it here"
With fast footsteps, I approached them and held my hand up in Karen's direction.
"I-it's mine..."
"Really? What a coincidence!" The father of Karen said, smiling down to her.
He was smiling..., Karen must be really proud to have such a nice father!
"Holly?" Karen trailed off, holding the umbrella over my hand, waiting for me to take it.
"Thank you!" I slowly noticed her handing me the umbrella and runned inside the School Building.

"Good Morning" Dwayne whispered into my ear, giving me a peck on my cheek.
.
..
...
"Good... Morning?"
"Is everything okay with you?" He asked me, noticing the shock on my face. "Did you had a bad dream?"
"I'm not quiet sure. Maybe it wasn't a dream, it could be a memory, but still I have to check it out before I come to my conclusions."
Silence.
Looking deeply into his eyes, I slowly reached out to his cheek and rested my hand on it, in little motions caressing his cheek with my thumb. Is this really happening?
Dwayne slightly chuckled and gave me a little peck on my lips. Then standing up from his bed, he picked up his clothes and checked up his phone for new messages.
Yet again I'm questioning what happened...
.
..
...
"I love you"
"I love you too."
Nah, he probably took some drugs, or maybe it was a dream.
'THEN HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN HIS BEHAVIOR?!'
We confessed our love?!... Ha! In your dreams Holly! Now get up and throw him outside your apartment. I can't deal thinking about these kind of things right now. The dream, THAT dream. I have to look up the suitcase to make sure if I remember it clearly.
"Out with you!" I took hold from his wrist, hoping to get him at least an inch further. The only thing that happened, was him looking down to me expressionless, trying to figure out what in the hell I was doing early in the morning and without further asking, he took his jacket and leaved the apartment.
"Well, reading through minds seems to be one of his talents too..."
Searching through everything I owned, I finally found the worn plastic bag I searched for.
'Whatever it is, I'm now one step further now!'
Back at my working place, I greeted my co-workers and went back to work. Hours and hours passed by, my eyes always checking the little plastic bag next to my bag.
'Was it coincidence? Or did it appear that you did it on purpose?'
The man who appears to be your butler, he asked me if my name was Holly Beckett. And you unknown man, appeared to wear the same things that night, where you and that butler
awaited a few men with guns in their jacket.
It was the same suit and hat as back then. It must be you!
I got two options now:
Either I go to the same street as the last time or I search up one of these dangerous man on that little alley to ask them.
If one of them would be a good idea, is one another question I don't want to think about now.
Throwback ends
Splash
"COME OUT OF HIS BODY, GET OUT!" Dereck screamed directly into his ear and throwed the water on his face.
"You know, he will not only be dead by his dirty thoughts, but deaf is he going to be for sure..." I tried to point out, giving my best to not fall into a deep laughter.
"I think you're right.... BRING MORE WATER"
"Yes sir, right away sir!"
A felt eternity later, we finally managed to get Hans back to life. Without further asking or saying anything, we ended up into a deep laughter and made ourselves comfortable on the ground.
"Dereck, we got one less big problem now, GEIL!"
"Geil?, oh yeah right, GEIL!"
"What does Geil mean?" I asked into the round earning no answer for a long time.
"Only those, who were on my Germany trip has the right to say Geil"
"The only one who followed you was-"
"Dereck, right. You were in Spain and had the chance to learn new things too, you don't have to know everything sis"
"Oh god nevermind, I'm not interesed in what that means anymore"
Outside, the sky turned into a beautiful star phenomenon and lighted up the apartment, together with the moonlight. Since Dwayne ended up not joining us because of his work, Hans and Dereck decided (on their own) to do a sleepover here.
A couple of chit chats and a few snacks later, we made ourselves comfortably on our beds and were about to drove off to sleep.
Actually both, Dereck and Hans were already on cloud sleep. The only one who couldn't sleep was me, looking deeply into the ceiling while thinking about my next steps to not end up dead on my first try.
A sudden ringing tone from my phone, took me off guard and I immediately picked it up without hesitating to not wake up the both little evils from their beauty sleeps.
"Am I talking to Holly Beckett? If so, I'm Smith, Harold Smith."
