Hi all, beautiful people¡! I want to share with you this new chapter of the storyproposals and at the same time a great motivation to bring it to be part of this community. I'm writing thanks to the brainstorming of Mr. @galenkp in this weekly #weekend-engagement, it is a challenge to adapt the story to the
Are you asking me to sleep with you?
I nodded. If the shock of the recent experience had not been so great I would have taken it back at once, but between the dream I felt and the fact that I was floating in space itself, I had no choice but to be absolutely sincere about it.
I reached out my hand to take his and his hand came close to mine as if by a magnet, we stayed for a moment observing this situation, he was as astonished as I was by what had just happened, I understood that there really wasn't much contact between earthlings and other inhabitants of the vast universal chaos, then I looked him in the eyes, perhaps to convince him to follow me or to find a sense of comfort in this being that would allow me to take a step towards the room he had pointed out to me earlier, when he returned my gaze I felt a slight electric shock running down my back, we were not holding hands, there was no real physical contact and yet I shuddered.
I yawned deeply, I turned over and thus magnetized we headed towards the bed, my eyes were closing from sleep, I was trying hard to keep them open, I didn't understand why I was so tired, I usually can't fall asleep in places other than my own house, it would have taken more than how many hours to reach this state of drowsiness?
I lay down on the bed and watch as he hesitates to lie down, I tell him: easy cowboy, I'm not going to bite you... and I laugh, he doesn't understand me but he was also tired and gives in to the urge to lie down, the bed was really cosy.
I had no idea what was about to happen, I acted quite confident because this strange being didn't seem threatening to any of my terrestrial survival instincts, at no time did I have the feeling of mistrusting him, he could have been a carnivorous plant and I fell into the trap like a fly seduced by the charm of evolution, physically there wasn't much difference to a human being from planet earth, maybe this was a projection that protected his true identity, maybe we are not so different, maybe he could take different forms according to the planet he visited, at this moment he was similar to me, he literally resembled my species, I don't know how many there are, or how different they are, it was the first time I thought about it, and the thoughts followed each other so fast that it caused me an incredible confusion to give them space in my mind, my heart felt safe and my body obeyed my heart.
He lay down and we got closer, the magnet effect helped the incipient shyness we were not showing before, the warmth emanating from his body was familiar, it seems he was not reptilian after all, his skin was soft, his blood warm, when he overcame the resistance to embrace me and relaxed, the light went out and in the total darkness began to glimpse some reflections of light that looked like stars, my heart gave a small jump, it seems he felt it.
- It is the glow of the crystals and some of their inner metals, there is nothing to fear.
He hugged me and fell asleep in my arms too, I rested my forehead on his forehead and the moment I fell asleep there was a slight glow.
Suddenly I found myself floating in space, I couldn't see myself, I looked around, there was nothing, until I found myself in front of me, I realised that I was not me or at least not the "me" that I saw, I began to feel an intense curiosity for me, I wanted to touch my hair, my skin, I wanted to hear my voice, I felt an incipient attraction to see myself blooming, as if I was waiting for a vital unfolding, She seemed to act very naturally, her movements were a dance that told a meaningless story but that at the same time I could interpret, my pulse accelerated with each gesture, I looked elsewhere but unfailingly my gaze fell on her again, the sensation of enjoying the moment increased, my body reacted, it vibrated, I felt fear, joy, I wanted to get closer, and I didn't know how to do it, it made me angry to feel incapable, I was ashamed of myself, I wanted to be enough, or to have some excuse to offer an approach, to justify it, she didn't see me, I was invisible, or at least that's how I felt, it was unusual to see myself in this special way, it didn't seems anything like the self-image of my own perception, at the same time I knew in return that I didn't need any excuse to get close to that me, that me, if it was me, it wasn't looking to be impressed, I just had to be who I was for that me to want to be close to me, and as I said this to myself I understood that I couldn't see myself because it wasn't me who was seeing myself in front of me, that this consciousness I was inhabiting wasn't my own, that someone else was feeling for me, or that I was perceiving someone else's sensations.
I open my eyes, I see the eyes of my roommate who was sleeping soundly, I separate my forehead from him very gently so as not to wake him up and all the strange sensations are gone.
I lower my body a little so I don't place my forehead on his forehead again, just in case, I didn't know what I had been doing but I didn't feel comfortable invading so much privacy, at the same time I was amazed by what we were feeling, so he could see everything? That was provoking him? Could these borders be dissolved in line with our commitment? Somehow this openness gave the situation a deeper nuance, if I shook his mind I could know his thoughts, if I touched his heart I would shake his feelings to the point of visibility? Even now I found it illogical that something like this was impossible, suddenly it seemed to me the most natural thing in the world, to be in contact with this being accelerated my personal evolution? And how could his contact with me benefit him? Was there anything in me that could improve his existence? After comparing me to a fruit... would it be the seed? Suddenly a somewhat dense sensation invaded me thanks to these thoughts, by focusing on the present moment, feeling, I calmed down again, of course there was a reason, the language of the universe is musical and mathematical, everything implies a logic, plus the variable of creativity is spontaneous, and so we felt this contact. In different ways we both grew with this approach.
An infinite sensation of tenderness enveloped me, my head was resting on his heart, I surrendered to reverie and finally fell asleep.
After a few hours a message arrived that we would see when we woke up.
"It was not stipulated to sleep next to the crew member."
📝 With my heart in my hand hope you enjoy the story.
