Holly and Angela sat side by side against a palm tree, talking. Holly sighed, smiling. "If only the others had come along. I would have loved to show Chase..." She started saying to Angela. And that's when the blonde haired girl suddenly looked far off into the distance. Angel sighed sort of forlornly.
"What's wrong?" Holly eyed her friend.
Angela heaved in another sigh. "I wish Brandon were here. I actually had this dream about him last night...I didn't want to mention it at first. It was actually more like a nightmares...um..." She started choking up. "But I thought I would tell you what happened in the dream, since you're one of my closest friends..." She said.
"Oh, okay. Your secret's safe with me, I promise, I won't repeat your dream to anyone." Holly said, waiting for Angela to speak again. Angela took a deep breath, and as soon as she started to explain the nightmare, it was like she was in it again.
She stood in the middle of a crowded room. Dance music pounded through the walls, and then through Angela's ears. People talked, laughed, danced, and sang, acting wild or simply smiling in the corner. Angel realized she was at a dance party...maybe even one at the Brown's house.
And suddenly the goal popped into her head. Find Brandon. She rummaged through all of the girls and boys at the party until she came to a stop near two particular people. Bailey Flynn stood alongside Brandon. Of course, the two were best friends. They must have come to the party together. She wasn't going to let the fact that Brandon and Bailey were talking and smiling to each other make her jealous.
She walked over to where Brandon and Bailey were, gathering up all of her nerves, and then greeted the two with a casual, "Hey, I made it! What's up?"
Brandon and Bailey kept talking and laughing. Angela shrugged. Maybe they didn't hear her over the music.
"Hey, guys! What's up?" She called them again, a little louder than before. But still, she watched as they kept on glancing at each other. Then they walked off a little bit, over to a table with snacks on it. Angela didn't feel very hungry. She felt more determined. Did they just not hear her, or did they not want to talk to her?
Angela kept following them, calling them with a voice that almost shouted through the party. "Brandon! Bailey!" She said. And in an desperate act, she reached out and tapped Bailey on the shoulder.
That's when the weird stuff started to happen.
She watched as her finger suddenly went straight through Bailey's shoulder. She screamed, pulling it back. But Brandon didn't even seem to notice her yell. She tried to grab his shoulders and shake him. "Hello? Do I exist?" She asked, extremely confused. But suddenly her hands went straight through Brandon's body too.
"What's going on guys?" She asked, shaking. Now Angel was really scared. What was wrong with her?
Brandon leaned into Bailey and whispered something in her ear. She giggled, turning bright red. And the two ran off together, disappearing into the crowd. Angela just stood there, tears threatening. Her hands turned pale. She realized that in her dreams she really was...completely...invisible. She collapsed in a corner where nobody could see her start to cry. She felt so lame, welling up with tears over something as dumb at this.
And suddenly she was back in reality. Holly just stared at her.
"That's what happened." Angela finished her story.
