//------------------------------// // Too Much Worry // Story: Love Until Dusk // by MyLittleGeneration //------------------------------// I woke up, stretching my arms and yawning out loud. I felt fine, but still had that horrible nightmare still in my head. Felt so real... I almost thought it was too good to be true. I was only happy that it was just a nightmare, but still, didn't make things better. But at least I realized something right now. I looked at my side to see a cute, blue girl sleeping so happily. She had a soft smile on her face, and a little blush, with all her hair loose and down. I wrapped my arm around her, only to hear a soft giggle of delight and more blush from the girl. Eh, why not? I stayed in bed and slept for a little more, just keeping Sonata company. Plus I was still tired. I woke up minutes later, and I smell the air. Immediately, I wake up with a smile. Ah, waffles. I step into the kitchen, seeing a plate of waffles on the counter. "Morning, sleepyhead." Sonata said with a smile standing next to Aria. "Aria made waffles for us! Aren't they great?" I grabbed my plate and fork, then biting into the first waffle. Indeed it was delicious! Holy hell! "Oh my god, Aria, these are awesome!" I said with delight. "You can cook!" 'Eh, a little practice there and there, and soon you get the hang of it." said Aria, playing with her spatula. Man, she really was a- Wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait... This kinda scared me. No, not the fact that Aria can cook, I'm fine about that. It's just... that nightmare... I woke up and had waffles... Aria made them... Nah, it had to be a coincidence. It happens. I had a dream of going to the zoo when I was a child and soon my parents took me to the zoo like I dreamed of. Simple as that. It's not real... Hopefully. This made me more fearful. What if? What if it is? What if the whole thing was just one big foreshadow? And what if Sonata- No. NO! NO!!! That's NOT going to happen! Sonata isn't gonna get hurt, not even close. She's going to be just fine. We're all gonna be fine, and live happily today. No lunatic Adagio... God, that gave me chills. No dead Aria... More chills entered my body. And no... dead... Sonata... I just froze right then. "Hello? Earth-to-Dusk?" Sonata questioned, waving her hand in my face. "Gah!" I screamed in surprise. "Oh, my bad. Just... zoned out a little. After all, did just get up." Aria smiled a bit, but Sonata looked concerned. Didn't expect her to be, to be frankly honest. "You alright, Shiney?" she quietly asked me. "Say... you aren't thinking about that dream... are you?" She wrapped her arm around me, squeezing me softly. "No, I'm fine, Sonata." I lied. "Truly, I am. Don't worry about me." I give her a quick peck on the cheek and keep eating my waffles. "Damn, these really are perfect as they tasted." I said to myself. "Still... let's hope IT isn't happening..." Time passed like a warm, summer breeze, and eventually, we get a call from Rarity. "Hello?" I said into the phone. "Oh, hello, darling!" said Rarity from the other end. "Me and the others are going shopping! Care to come with?" "Mall?" I guessed. "Wherever else?" "Alright, me and the others will drive by your place and head out, kay?" "Why, of course, darling! Take your time. No need to rush!" And then she hung up. Though, a little- NO! It's coincidence, dammit! I remember clearly what else happened during the dream. Mall. Shopping. Nothing graphic or gory nor disturbing, like Aria making breakfast, but still, a little... creepy. "Hey, wanna go to the mall?" I ask the two girls. "Sure." Aria answered. "Mall seems like a nice place to go hang out. Might as well get some CDs, anyway." Must... not... think... about... damn dream... "Alright, sweet! Sonata?" I ask, twitching my eye, struggling to not think more about the horrifying dream. God, it was like I had a vision of the world ending, which it kinda was for me. "Yeah!" she said with a smile. "Of course, silly! Sounds fun!" She threw her hands in the in and walked with Aria to my car. "Aren't you coming?" she asks. "In a minute." I said, resting my head on my hand. Sonata walked to me again, having a serious look on her face. "Dusk," she said. "Don't worry so much on the dream. It might've been scary, but come on, it's kinda ridiculous." "I know." I said. "But... it's just so odd..." "Come on." she said softly, giving me a peck on the cheek. "Let's have fun at the mall. Surely nothing bad can happen, right?" "Yup." I answered. I got up and headed to the car, turned it on, then drove to Rarity's. We drove up, seeing Rarity and others. "Hello, darling!" she greeted. "Shall we start going or you wanna stay here for a bit?" "Nah, we're fine." Aria responded. "Let's go!" We drove for about thirty minutes and finally make it to the mall, and head our way to the mall. "This seems divine!" Rarity said, cheerily. "You always say that whenever we get here. Matter of fact you tend to say that every time YOU go." AJ said. "But why it is! So stylish, so amazing!" Rarity was star-eyed. "Come on! We have no time to lose! Let's shop!" "Well, I'm getting some CDs." Aria said. "Sonata, you coming?" she then asks. "Me?" Sonata asks. "Of course! Wouldn't wanna NOT spend time with the best sister in the whole wide world!" She jumped over and hugged Aria tightly. "I'm coming with." I said. "Just hanging out, that's all." "Okay." Rarity said. "Let's say... Noon. Noon we'll meet at the cafe. Sound like the plan?" We all nod in agreement. "Alright! Have fun you three!" Me, Aria, and a cheery Sonata start making our way to the CD store, where it was filled with, you guessed it, CDs. Aria smiled, looking at the shelf full of punk and metal. "You two do whatever. I got my eye on something." She walked over to the punk shelf, leaving just me and Sonata. I honestly wasn't looking forward to much. "Oh!" Sonata said with glee and excitement. "Look at this shelf!" She stopped and stared at the pop shelf with awe. "Ooooh! I'm gonna be here for a while!" "Well, I'm just-" I was then shocked when I noticed a case featuring three albums from The Main Drag. "Gonna buy this." I picked it up with glee. "Perfect!" I was just gonna sit back, but I just saw this and had to purchase- wait. Aria's punk... Sonata's pop... My Main Drag... For God's sake this is becoming REALLY coincidental. I could only think of Sonata telling me not to worry. Yet, this is becoming too scary for me. The nightmare is slowly making it's way to become real. This is only the soft part, though... No, Dusk, this is all just a coincidence! It's all- "Green Day? Helms yeah!" said Aria with a smile. Real... Oh, boy...
