As he stood over her still, sleeping body, he couldnt get the memories of the bath out of his mind, but he was begining to feel this overpowering urge to protect her, and, as she lay there breathing softly into the dark, a wave of mixed emotions began to overwealm him, before tonight, he wasnt sure where he fitted into her life, i guess somewhere in his mind, David believed that one day he and Marie would be together, one way or another, the thoughts he had about her in his life, were destined to always be that way, just thoughts, dreams, how can he tell her now that it can never be?, will he still be able to comunicate with her?, is there a way to get into her head while she slept?, as he seemed to have done moments after his fall, he needed to figure out his new purpose, some things seemed to be falling into place in his head, others weren't making much sence as yet,
It was a warm night, and she had fallen asleep in her robe, which she had struggled out of in a sleeping fit, obviously dreaming, he wished he knew where her mind was at that moment, he had felt guilty at that point, was he in some guardian position on her life now, was he abusing that by thinking of her in this way, and will those thoughts eventually vanish as if never thought?
The room started to melt away, he wasn't panicked, it seemed perfectly natural to him, although it had never happened before, he was at ease as if it had many times.
Standing in the clearing, it seemed to be springtime in the woodland area he had visited so many times with Marie before, and as he glanced around, there she stood, wide eyed, naked as eve, smiling up at him, like an old friend out of the blue, he contained his smiles, and pushed any guilty thoughts to the back of his mind, 'what am i suposed to be doing?' puzzled, he took her hand and began to walk through the woods, she was glancing around, looking pleased, when suddenly she came to a stop, she was staring, intently at a small Daisy poking its head through the thick grass, she turned her attention to David, "Do you think it is time yet? dare i?" she asked him with such hope in her big grey eyes, "Why don't you try it and see" he felt an uncontrolable smile spread across his face, he knew, now he had passed, that the scent would be there for her, and he felt excitement at the thought of her happiness, and he wasn't disapointed, and neither was she, he watched as she leant forward, plucked the tiny flower from the ground and lifted it towards her face, she inhailed deeply, and as she turned to him, smile spreading across her face, she started to fall away from him, as if being pulled by some invisable force, the flower fallling from her hand fell slowly to the ground, her hands and arms outstreached towards him, calling for him, he put his arms toward her, trying to catch her, but she was too far away, he couldn't hear her, but he knew there was a scream, her face twisted, filled with anguish...
He found himslef in the dark, dazed and confused, nothing around him accept a lone, wilting flower,lying on the ground, there were tears straming down his cheeks, they stang, the first physical pain he reacalled feeling in this world, he knew deep down she was safe, what he didn't know of course, was he?.
He began searching, through the darkness, he had no idea how to get anywhere, asuming it was something he needed to learn by himself he considered using the techniques he had learned in his life, maybe meditation, praying to be where he desired, maybe that would work, in the end he tried everything he could think of, in the end he found himself running faster, and faster through the darkness, getting nowhere fast, was this hell? what was this place? and why did he have no knowledge of any thing at all.
Falling to his knees, he could no longer control the tears, 'this is wrong' he thought, 'this is more than wrong, maybe i was wrong, i don't know where i am or what is happening to me...WHERE AM I?????????" he shouted louder than he ever had before, there was nothing, no echo, no response, he lay on the ground, sobbing, feeling numb.
He must have fallen asleep, when he awoke, he was blinded by the light around him, he rubbed his eyes, still wet from the tears, as he did so, things began to clear, in front of him and in his head, he knew what was happening, he knew why, the only thing left to do was find Marie, and tell her, tell her everything..
No sooner had he decided what to do he was there, in her room exactly as earlier, she was lying in her bed, sleeping deeply, but there were tear stains on her face, this saddened him deeper than he could imagine.
Sitting down beside her on the bed, he knew, the only way to prove his theory, he lifted his hand from his lap, paused for a moment, then moved it toward Marie's sleeping body, he brushed her cheek gently, with the back of his hand, then cupped the same cheek, using his thumb to remove the last tear drops, he smiled to himself, this smile at the touch of her soft skin, soon turned to tears, flooding, uncontrolable tears at the realisation of his fate.
He watched her for what seemed like hours, although it was probably only minutes, as she stirred from sleep, his smile returned, her head rolled in his direction as her eyes began to open slightly, she smiled as she noticed him, and then a double take sat her bolt upright, her arms flung around his neck, "but how..?" she declared when she finally losened her grip on him, " i'm sorry Marie, you are still sleeping and i don't know how much time i have left with you"
"I don't understand" she said, her voice breaking slightly as the sadness began to return
"Have either of us understood any of this since the begining?" he atempted to laugh "I thought i knew what this was, but i fear, i was wrong, and now i am unsure weather i will ever see you again"
this time there was no fighting the tears, she would finally see how much he had been hurting from the outset, she held him again, she held him so tight that she thought she would never be able to let go.
In that moment, they both felt the same thing, pulling away from her embrace, he looked into those grey eyes and she looked into his, it felt as though there was a spike of electricity pulcating through them both, he leaned towards Marie, slowly and calmly he rested his lips to hers and they kissed for what seemed like an eternity, this electrifying charge bolting through their veins, hearts pounding as if they might burst, they, again, held each other so tightly, the kiss becoming more passionate and breathless by the second,
Marie pulled away, a look of panic on her face, she felt the tears, she was showered in his upset, it was her this time wiping tears from his face, he seemed to be breaking down comletely, " i don't want to go back" he sobbed " i was so unhappy in my life i...i .."
"shhhh" Marie whispered " you say you have to go and that i may never see you again, tell me, where are you going?"
the words would not come, was there something that was trying to prevent all this becoming reality, why could he not tell her?, he thought he might scream " I have to go back, i was wrong, i obviously don't belong here, with you"
A solitary tear ran down Marie's cheek, it landed on the back of Davids hand, he leant forward and placed a kiss on her face where the tear had left a path
" I wish i could stay here...with you Marie.....I wish there was some way i could find you in reality, as i fear that may be where i am headed to, i can't stay, i can feel it, the time has come"
"I don't understand" pleaded Marie, "why cant you tell me? please stay here, i need you....I ..I love you David"
She clung to him, like a child not wanting to be left by its mother, "Marie" he replied " I have no control, i want to stay i promise, i will try to find you Marie, don't think that i will ever stop thinking about you, i will think about you every day" he held her, but he could hear a strange noise, this is it, its time, he knew, the noise wasn't coming from Marie's room, it seemed to be coming from the back of his mind....
"David?.....Are you ok.."
He couldn't hear her anymore, she was the distant sound now, he looked into her fading eyes once more,
"Marie... I love you too" but it was too late, she was sat alone, he had gone, she never heard those last three words.

As David began to open his eyes, he was afraid of where he might be now, he was afraid that his instincts were right, and, as his eyes cleared, he looked around the hospital ward, he saw the policeman sitting next to his bed, then the pain in his head started to ache at the noises coming from the monitors that seemed to be attatched to him,and he flinched....
