for now?” he asked her, looking
hopeful.
    She nodded as she reached down and took the
shoe off, “Okay, but I want you to keep all of this stuff over here
until the party. In the meantime, you never did feed me breakfast,
so how about we cook something together, do you have food here?”
she asked him.
    He blushed and shook his head, “No, I
usually grab something at the hotel when I work, or order in when
I’m here, sorry.”
    She smiled, “That’s okay, how about we go to
the grocery store and pick up a few things. I make a mean BLT
sandwich.”
    Tom laughed, “Sounds good to me, let’s
go.”
    Abby grabbed her purse as they headed out
the door, ready to spend the rest of the day together just
relaxing.

Chapter 13
    Later that night as they lay in his massive
bed, they started to tell each other about their hopes and dreams
for the future and for a split second Abby considered telling him
all about her mother and the things that she had recently learned
about her destiny, but didn’t know if it was something she was
supposed to share.
    She was also worried that he would think she
was crazy and have her locked into a mental facility, or dump her.
Either way, she decided she wasn’t ready to tell him the truth
about herself and encouraged him to talk more about himself.
    She watched as his eyes shut and he started
to breathe heavier, and she knew that he was asleep. She watched as
his eyelids fluttered and wondered what he was dreaming about. Just
as the thought crossed her mind she saw a mental flash of a field
of flowers, which surprised her enough to make her entire body
twitch and her heart started beating against her chest so loudly,
she was sure it would wake him up. She held her breathe for a few
seconds, but once she saw that he was still asleep, she let it
out.
    She had a feeling deep down inside of her
that she could see into his mind, so she followed her instincts and
put her hands on either side of his face and closed her eyes,
thinking of Tom, and wanting to see his dream. Suddenly it was like
she was looking into a television set, but instead of actors she
saw herself lying on a blanket in the middle of a field of daises
with Tom lying next to her, and it appeared they were talking. She
tried to focus in on the sounds, but no matter how hard she tried,
she could not hear what they were saying, she could only see that
it was a very serious conversation.
    Suddenly Tom leaned over and kissed the Abby
that was lying on the blanket and she watched as they started to
become more and more intimate. She watched as he undressed her, and
it was odd watching herself becoming naked, especially when she
couldn’t feel or hear anything that was happening.
    She started to feel a familiar tingle
between her legs as she watched herself and Tom start to position
themselves as though they were about to have sex, and feeling
suddenly ashamed and like she was peeping into someone’s window,
she pulled back out of the dream and opened her eyes. She looked at
Tom, knowing that in his dream he was having sex with her right
now, wondering if he had this dream about her often.
    She sighed as he pulled her closer to him,
wrapping his arms around her and moaning in his sleep. She enjoyed
the feeling of his arms wrapped around her and was finally able to
fall asleep in his arms.
    ***
    The next few days went by way too fast, in a
whirl wind of dates with Tom, with Abby trying unsuccessfully to
forget about what she had seen in his dreams. They had spent one
night at her apartment, but after sharing such a large bed, her
small full sized bed seemed much too cramped for them, so they
slept at Tom’s apartment the rest of the week. Finally it was
Saturday, and she woke up nervous about meeting Tom’s father, who
he described as stuck up, snobby, and a pain in his ass.
    She didn’t know what to expect at the party,
but was terrified that he wouldn’t like her, and that it would put
a cramp in their relationship. She hadn’t ever
