Insomnia and Baby Steps

 

Squinting at the screen, Francisco clicked on a pair of tiles to eliminate them from the game. It was getting harder and harder to read the small tiles, probably because it was getting so late, but though he had to get up in a few hours for class, Francisco could not seem to get himself to go to bed. It wasn’t that he couldn’t sleep—he was sure he’d be out in an instant if he just laid down—but rather that he just didn’t want to. To sleep was to allow the day to end, with him no closer to any one of his goals than he was when the day started. Of course, sitting at the computer playing puzzle games at two in the morning wasn’t bringing his goals any closer, but the idea of going to sleep was so distressing that he tended to put it off as long as possible by any means he could find.

 

His vision was blurring now so that no amount of squinting could make the tiles legible. With a sigh Francisco stretched before removing his hat and running his fingers through his hair. After shutting down his computer he left his hat on the desk and climbed up into his bed. Just as he had guessed it was very quickly that he slid into sleep. With any luck there’d be no nightmares tonight, and tomorrow he’d take some kind of step forward, even if it was only a small one.

Oh-whoa

Lately I've been feeling so depressed

And stressed

It seems I'm finally paying the cost

So lost

I'm not quite sure what's happening

Not sure what's going on

I'm losing my mind, soon it will be gone

 

Can anyone help me grab ahold?

Can anyone hold my hand?

Everyone's turning away and I don't understand

Can anyone help me get my footing?

Can anyone help me stand?

Everyone's turning away as quickly as they can

I don't understand

 

Oh-whoa

Lately I've been dying of suspense

So tense

It seems at last I have come to the end

No friends

I'm not quite sure where they are going

Not sure where they'll be

I'm all alone right now, that's what I see

 

Can anyone help me grab ahold?

Give Me The Key To Your Heart

 

I can see right through you

Don't try to hide

You tell yourself that this is temporary

And the pain will subside

 

Let me in to help you

I don't want you to float away from me

I know you think there's nothing that can be done

But I think a little diffrently

 

Give me the key to heart

I'm coming inside

To repair the damage

And take away that's died

 

(had a little trouble with the end) =\

Here's a little something....it's about a music gig that was in my dream the other night. xD

 

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

 

"Do you mind?!" I shouted at the 17-year old who had just jabbed me in the ribs with her elbow, the same spot I'd been jabbed in all night. I was sure I'd have a hell of a bruise there at the end of it all. She just ignored me and kept on bouncing, jabbing me again as if to say 'Shush you, I'm trying to enjoy the show!'.

 

Bruised ribs aside, it was a hell of a night so far. It wasn't often I turned up to music gigs by myself, but tonight I thought it would be allright to make an exception. And what ane xception to make. The noise was deafening, what with hundreds of young people bounching, chanting, shouting, screaming, singing along to every word. Not since the Foo Fighters had I been in such an intense crowd: back then, two crowd surfers landed on my head. Tonight, twelve of them had so far.

 

The band finished up their current song, and rapturous applause followed. I whooped and clapped as loud as I could, my own voice drowned out by those around me.

 

"Thank you Newcastle!" cried out the lead singer in that strong Nashville twang of theirs. "This is the first time we've played here ever, so it's an honour to have you all come along for the night!" More whooping and clapping went up as Newcastle showed their approval. Someone trod on my sore big toe and I winced, but I kept smiling like an idiot. Then I realised I was only 10 feet from the front of the stage and it's line of baldy security guards.

 

It was then I lifted up the thing I'd been carrying with me all night and threw it at the stage as hard as I could. Normally I threw like a girl, but that moment must have been a fluke as the bunch of slightly crumpled roses landed at the foot of the microphone stand on stage. Fate truely must've been on my side then when the singer suddenly looked down and saw the red flowers wrapped in paper at their feet. They stooped to pick them up and faced the crowd again.

 

"Aww, this is so sweet!" they said, as more whooping went up. "Who bought these for me tonight?"

 

Several arms went up, but luckily since I was taller than most of them I was picked out of the throng. The singer's finger pointed towards my face. "You there! Mind getting your ass up here?"

 

I couldn't move faster if my life depended upon it. I was at the front barrier, being hoisted up onto the stage by the security blokes, within maybe 7 seconds of being asked up. I awkwardly rolled onto the wet stage and got to my feet, getting a nice view of the several hundred persons in the venue for the night.

 

So that's what all these bands feel like...

 

"So Mr. Mystery flower thrower," asked the singer, putting a petite hand on my shoulder. Or at least, tried to: she was fucking tiny compared to me. Next thing I know, a mic was being shoved into my face. "What's your name and where do you come from?" Trying to keep my nerves in check, I spoke into it.

 

"I'm James, and I'm from County Durham." Some sort of cheer went up from within the crowd. Not bad for my first ever stage appearence, I thought.

 

"And how much did these roses cost you, James from County Durham?" she asked me next, her smile showing a brace of pearly white teeth.

 

"£30," I told everyone within mic-shot. "Worth it though. It got me up here next to you didn't it?" She seemed to blush and turn away, her band mates grinning or laughing in response to my latest revelation.

 

"And why did you want to get up here?" she asked, trying to keep her composure. I swallowed my pride to say my next carefully-rehearsed line.

 

"Cause I love you. In a completely platonic sense, obviously."

 

She laughs again at this part, and seems to blush even more than before, then next thing I knew her arms were around me to give me a rather energetic hug for someone of her petite stature. I returned the favour, grinning like an idiot probably. I couldn't really remember much. What I do know is that her hair smelt nice. Like apples. Or was it strawberries?

 

"See, this is why we love you Brits!" she said, facing her audience once more. "You're so damned nice and adorable. Now James, mind showing us a stage dive?"

 

Oh yes, I thought, another life-long dream fulfilled in the same night. Taking a short run up, I ran and threw myself over the bald heads of the security guards below, while probably pin-wheeling my arms pathetically as well, and landed shoulder-first in the writhing mass of bodies below me. Luckily, they held, and next thing I knew I was being slowly carried away from the stage gradually.

 

"There goes James!" she shouted, pointing towards me. "Be sure to give him a hug if you see him after the show, cause he's a super cool dude! This next one's for you, James!" Another cheer of agreement went up, and Paramore continued on into their next song of the night. Which one it was, I had no idea, as I still had the smell of Hayley Williams' hair in my nostrils, and that's all that mattered to me right now.

 

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

 

Yes, I'm sure you were probably able to work out which band I was meant to be seeing at this gig, and it was probably a bit close to soft porn at some points, but what dreams aren't? :P

That was a pretty neat dream. You wrote it out pretty well, too, except it was kind of annoying that you kept referring to the lead singer in plural form. "slowly carried away from the stage gradually" is kind of redundant. "Smell of ...hair still in my nostrils" sounded a little more awkward than romantic, but maybe that was what you were going for. Again, pretty neat.

Oh well sorry for that, but I wanted to try and give an air of mystery over who this band was, but I'm sure 'Nashville twang gave it away early. :P

 

And I'll freely admit I'm no great romantic, so if you could excuse the awkwardness that'd be much appreciated. xD
