Everlasting Love Pt 3

I finally managed to get of the road, tears streaming down my face.
I stumbled into the forest across from my house, and sunk to the mucky floor.
My life was in pieces, it was over.
As the dark night closed over me, I sunk into a deep sleep.1

I dreamt I was dead, but I wasn't in heaven...or hell.
I was in Matt's arms as we lay on a field, staring at each other's faces.
His face was happy, his eyes bright and a light smile on his face.
I was smiling too.
Matt then lightly pressed his lips to mine.
I knew it wasn't real, but I couldn't help but love this time with him.2

And then my eyes opened, I sighed and stretched.
I winced, my muscles were tight, my whole body ached.
I was pulled out of my dream and back to reality in seconds.
It was still dark, but I couldn't see the sky, I could only see the trees covering me.
Finally I got to my feet and stumbled across the slushy forest ground, tripping a lot, the further I walked the darker it got.
"Brooke?" a voice called from a distance.
I jumped.
"Matt?!" I screeched.
I turned around to see Matt running toward me.
Then his arms were around me.
I lay my head against his stone chest and hugged him with all the energy I had.
"Are you ok?" he asked his voice strained.
"No," I said truthfully, a cry in my voice.
"He-he will never touch you again, I promise," he said quietly.
