Hazy beginnings usually described the beginnings of Sara's dreams, but this one was different. Not only did she dream herself waking up, but she went through all of her normal morning procedures. The realistic factor was very high, and Sara's subconscious had completely fooled her.
Her day started off with Heidi, as usual, as the two girls dressed and walked to breakfast together. But today, Sara sensed something was rather different. Andy was sitting at the table, as usual, but something was different about him. Studying him, she realized it was the way he was looking back at her!
Questioning how real this situation really was, she took a step back, and nearly crashed into none other than Will Harper.
“Watch it,” the boy snarled, not even looking at her.
“Get your head out of the clouds,” was Sara’s snappy retort, that she was able to fire without even thinking about it. Then, she realized whom she was talking to. Much to her dismay, her expression softened. The girl knew that her face had taken a more pleasant appearance, but she couldn’t help it: He didn’t make her angry, and she wasn’t upset about bumping into him.
Will showed obvious pleasure upon recognizing his collision partner. “Too busy reading to notice a bloke behind you?”
“Wot?” Sara scoffed, rolling her eyes. “No, I was just too busy admiring you,” she joked, finding it easier to be sarcastic than serious with him.
“Why don’t you cut the sarcasm for once?” Will returned with ease, evidently having fun with the argument.
And with that statement, all of a sudden it all became clear. Sara Sanders looked into William Harper’s eyes, and at that moment, all the problems of the world seemed to melt away. He was on par with her, and it was the… dare she say it?… sexiest thing ever. She shuddered internally, not even wanting to imagine where the word sexy had come from. Sorry, Sara!
“You know,” she began, taking a step forward, “I have this sudden urge… an urge to prove society wrong.”
Noticing the sudden change in tension and mood, Will looked at her in confusion. But this uncertainty simply turned into an understanding. What other than their rumored snogging could Sara be talking about?
Will stepped forward, placing his hands on each of her shoulders. Pulling her in, Sara felt her lips purse, and she leaned into the… Pillow?
Coughing and sputtering, Sara gasped for air, throwing her pillow on the floor beside her bed.
Some dream, eh firstie?
