Lately, I've been having odd dreams that may seem sort of nightmarish, but they haven't bothered me.
This one was about a surrogate family I had, living in this huge house that would have room for all of us. It was my dad, and several older brothers, and a younger sister I was living with. I shared a room with the sister. We were the only girls in the family. My ex-boyfriend, David, came over to visit me. I had freaked out though, because my entire family was home. I didn't specifically mention it was him, to everyone in the house, it was just a friend coming over to visit.
I was asking him about my camera, I asked him if my camera was okay or anything, just in case. Because I had a fear that he or his girlfriend would have ruined it or something. He didn't bring the camera. But suddenly, he started using my computer that was downstairs in the living room. In reality, the computer is located downstairs. But since the house was different, and just once, I knew I was dreaming, I intentionally thought that I had a computer upstairs in my room. So I told him to go upstairs to use that one instead, that way, I could keep him away from the family from asking questions, and we could talk in privacy. Because just as, my dad was passing by, and he would have walked in on us. So I hurried him upstairs.
My sister came along with me. However, instead of using the computer, we all sat on my bed, which was almost like a bunk-bed. David and I started talking about things, and then arguing, playing around with each other, and teasing each other. This was typical. I always get into a conversation and butt heads with him when it comes to our relationship. I despise discussing our relationship with him. We were talking about prom or something similar to that. This was odd, because prom had already happened, while we were still together. We were speaking as if it hasn't happened yet. Or maybe discussing about his girlfriend's upcoming prom that I may be attending anyway, and I don't know why, but the date is off in this dream. David was trying to make me jealous or something, mention stuff about our past relationship. However, I wasn't, or swayed or anything. I told him that I'd have a date who could "make me feel amazingly good" or something like that. He got all mad, annoyed, jealous, and trying to explain what he meant to me. I don't remember exactly what I was arguing with him about, but it had to do with the current state of our relationship. My sister was off to the side, just listening to us. Then, we ended up wrestling under the covers or something. However, we stopped, and almost sort of connected. Kind of apologizing, in a silent way, with different words, and almost embracing each other. I remembered how I liked to be with him, just holding each other.
In all of that time passing, my sister suddenly opens the door, because we were summoned by our dad or brothers. However, each brother, one by one, came upstairs looking for us, appeared by the door, staring at us. I'm stuck in my bed, looking like a mess, with dishevelled hair, almost holding onto David. I was so relieved my dad wasn't among them. I got off quickly and was telling them how David was about to leave. But my brothers had the tone, like, "Yeah, you weren't doing anything!" "We know what that looks like!" in disbelief. I was mad at my sister for opening the door so widely like that, instead of being discreet. Then, I get note that my dad was coming home, with cops or security guards to search the house or something. I yelled at David to escape through my bedroom window, because I didn't want to spend time explaining to my dad why he was still there and why we were laying in bed together.
As I looked in the direction of the window, I saw a little goth girl's head, kind of floating, just staring into the room, as if she was watching what was happening. At first, I thought she was standing outside looking in, but then I realized, we were on the second floor. I figured it was just her head. I knew she wasn't part of the dream, it was an odd circumstance, apparently, no one else could've/would've seen her. But I ignored her, following my dream, telling David to escape through the window.
I ran downstairs, still freaked out about the window.
David wasn't my concern anymore.
I tried to tell all of my brothers and my dad exactly what I saw.
I wasn't sure if I should've, because she wasn't part of that particular dream theme... but I tried anyway.
Then I woke up.
Additional Comments:
It was such a surprise in the dream to me when David came over, because it made me feel like it was an indication of him actually making an effort to see me or something.
However, I didn't think my parents or anyone really knew that we were broken up already. Because I'm not the type to date around, at the time when we were together, I kept my personal life, like him, away from my family. So when he came over, it was weird having him around... not as a friend, but as a lover/ex-lover.
The time of the dream was presently. Because in reality, the last time I went to visit him, I had forgotten my camera at his place.
We haven't had exactly a good conversation or run-in since then.
