Dos gave me a good night kiss when I walked him out. I was touching my lips as I absentmindedly went inside the house, still thinking about the kiss and Dos' confession. I didn't give him an answer. I was thinking if should I act hard to get? I still couldn't believe that it was happening.
My mind was a mess that I couldn't sleep no matter how I stared at the ceiling and did nothing. My mind was full of thoughts of Dos. I was starting to think that I was going crazy.
So this is what it feels like to like someone? I only read and watch this scenes in movies. I never would have thought that I would experience this myself. I chuckled thinking that I, too, was capable of feeling this kind of feeling.
Yes, it was confusing but at the same time, it felt good thinking that someone out there likes you and you both shared the same feelings. I squirmed as I tightly hugged the pillow in my arms, kissing the back of my hand where Dos kissed.

Harry and our fathers planned to camp that weekend at the usual place where we always camp. Our dads enjoyed fishing and dad would sometimes makes me borrow his fishing rod but I ended up giving it back to dad after ten minutes when no fish still took the bait. I got bored waiting and Harry was calling me to play ball with him.
We were playing catch near the tents and I would laugh out loud if I threw the ball hard and it would roll away. I would only apologize to him as I watch him from a distance while he searches for the ball. We continued to play ball until it was Harry who threw the ball a little farther from me that it rolled away.
We were laughing and I went deeper inside the forest to look for the yellow ball when I suddenly hear a galloping sound. It was a cayote and it was getting chased by another animal. The cayote was crying as it stopped and looked around the area when the one chasing him stopped and then it saw me.
I saw that one of his feet was bleeding and it was struggling to stand straight making my heart ache seeing it in that condition. I gently raised my hand as I walked slowly to the cayote who stood in alert as it looked at me but didn't ran away.
"Hush." I cooed. "It's fine. I won't hurt you."
I was a few meters away from the animal when something rushed towards me. The cayote run as fast as it could with its injured leg while I, on the other hand, stood frozen on the ground seeing a huge brown dog was running towards me. My heart was racing so fast that I almost forgot how to breathe.
I knew the dog was going after me but my feet just wouldn't move. I lost all my strength thinking that a dog was preying on me. I closed my eyes when something also tackled the dog before it could jump at me.
It was also a huge dog in gray fur. It bit the brown's side and growled at it before it let go and the brown dog turned to me before it walked away leaving me and the gray furred dog.
My body was trembling without my control and my knees gave out making me slump on the ground like a scared puppy. The gray dog turned towards me and its glowing blue eyes were the only thing that I remembered before it ran away and disappeared in the trees just when I heard the shouts of dad, Harry and Harry's dad.

I woke up from a dream that happened when I was young. Why did I dreamt about it again and I was wondering if what I saw that time was really right or did I exaggerate it a bit? It was impossible for animals to have that kind of glowing eyes but I was so sure about what I saw that time. There was no way that I was mistaken. I did saw a rare mountain wolf and even now, I still couldn't forget about it.
I did checked it in the internet about animals with glowing eyes before but no results were found that matches what I saw.
After that incident, I started to fear dogs especially when they starts to bare their teeth at me. I would be in panic but remembering those glowing blue eyes made me calm down for I didn't know the reason.
I sighed as I get up from the bed and prepare for school.

The following night, I also dreamt again of the wolf with glowing blue eyes but not the same scenario. We were alone on a vast wheat field and we were only staring at each other. It seems like his eyes were telling me something that I couldn't comprehend while I was only mesmerized by his beautiful eyes.
On the third night, the wolf was getting closer towards me. It didn't made a single sound as it slowly walks towards.
The forth night, it was already sitting beside me while we were looking at the water where the beautiful city lights were reflected just like that time with Dos on the bridge and riverbank.
I didn't know why I was dreaming about the same wolf but I was looking forward every time I closes my eyes. It felt like it was trying to say something to me but it only chooses to stay quiet. I again dreamed about the wolf who was sitting beside me on the riverbank, watching the lights dancing on the water.
I turned to look back at the wolf and I exclaimed when the wolf was gone and was replaced by a figure of a man, sitting beside me where the wolf was a moment ago and he was totally naked! I could see that he had a good build and his face was blocked by his shoulder length hair. I raised my hand slowly without my control and placed it on top of the man's shoulder.
I was holding my breath when the man turned his head to look at me just when my eyes opened, waking up from my dream. I was so surprised that I didn't move for a while upon waking up.
I smacked my head after I realized what I just dreamt. Though, the man had a long hair but I couldn't be mistaken. It was Dos naked beside me!
I smacked my face again and again for dreaming something like that!
