Ex Boyfriend Galore, 2/28/10

We were… somewhere. It was like a country house or something, I think it belonged to family members. There were a few of us downstairs, I think just me and some guy. We were sleeping on the floor and weren’t very close to where the other was. I remember waking up and seeing a beautiful scene outside. We were somewhere in the country and so the sky seemed huge. There weren’t any trees or houses for miles. I remember wanting my camera. We all started packing up and then headed out, headed back to the main house.

We stopped at a convenient store, like a Drug Mart. Warning - there were a LOT of people living in my house somehow, including a baby. It was Chris [2.0], I think his mom, a nephew or something of his [the baby], and some other relatives of his, along with my whole family, oh, and Hannah? Anyway - we stopped here because they had to pick up diapers and some stuff to start dinner. I found this registry thing for new babies and wanted to find Matt Nova’s baby sister [because he really does have a baby sister now, she’s about six months old and i never did meet her =( ]. Well they are in a hurry and so I say that I’ll stay behind, I have a few more things to find. They start to leave when Chris and I both realize I still have the keys because I originally drove. He comes back in, and he also asks if he should head straight back to get me [it’s only about five minutes away] or wait til after he helps to get dinner started. I ask him how long that will take, he says about a half and hour, and I ask him to come back right away, it won’t take him long to come back and get me. He says okay and leaves. I wander the store.

And apparently I wander for a long time. Chris never comes back. And apparently we must not have cell phones because I don’t remember ever seeing one or thinking to use it xD It’s late and it’s snowing. I wander outside and I don’t see him. It’s been a while now.

Next thing I know I’m back at the house. I got a ride with a friend, or at least that is what I keep telling people. The garage door is open. I go in and Hannah passes me on the way out. Says something to me but I forget what. I let her go and I start into the garage and move to the back. I decide to sneak in, too, and not let Chris know I’m home so that when he finally does go out [I know he hasn’t cause the car is still there], he’ll feel bad when I’m not there. =P

But I hear footsteps. I turn around and a guy with a weird mustache and dark clothes and a dark beanie, who doesn’t seem familiar, is walking toward me. It’s dark in the garage and so I can barely make him out. My hand is on the button to close the garage, but I don’t push it. I start to move for the door handle. I ask him who he is, yelling it a little. He keeps coming closer and I can barely see his face. I ask again, really freaked out this time. Finally, he steps closer still and I’m just about to really freak out when the light hits his face. I know those eyes.

It’s Benjy.

He laughs a little and pulls off the fake mustache, joking that I’m too easy to scare. I barely hear him. I’m freaking out now, but in a different way. A million thoughts in my head. About him, about /her/, about everything. Why is he hear? When \did he come into town? I think I ask some of these out loud but I’m not really paying attention. I finally just throw my arms around him and hug him tightly. I forget about everything else.

We start to leave. I want to hang out with him and talk but I can’t do it here. Chris, his family, my family, tons of people are here. I think Chris’ mom wants me and Chris together because I was afraid to let her see me with someone else. I think I’m dating someone else, though, cause I have this notion about having a boyfriend, but it wasn’t Chris. We start to leave and I remember tugging him to the side to make sure our moms, who are both sitting in my front room in those silly lawn chair things we have, don’t see us. He keep going down the walk and I say that we need to hurry and get away from the house before Chris leaves or something. He jokingly picks me up, typical Benjy, and carries me over his shoulder around the corner.

…. But of course, it ends there, and we jump to what feels like a flashback t before we left [first part] the country house.

Me and some guy [it felt like it was the character from ‘Dear John’ just in a different plot] are hanging out at the house. We thought we had it to ourselves until the morning. We had my little brother [not my real brother, a fictional one, about 15 and much cooler than Andy, lol] there with us but he was being cool and minding his own business. Me and this guy were just hanging out. I think we’d just been swimming. It was dark and we came inside and put on robes. All of a sudden, we hear people coming inside. I think they were my aunts and uncle? We try to sneak him out, but no luck. We get caught and yelled at. I feel like this was a flashback to before we woke up in the basement and headed home. I know that he’s my boyfriend I thought about in the other parts and I remember hearing my aunts talk about how I should marry and have kids with that sweet boy I’m seeing and it freaks him and myself out a bit. He wasn’t Chris. Chris shows up later. I think the boyfriend got sent home, and Chris was there, too, and that’s who was sleeping on the floor in the basement with me in the first part of the dream. But honestly, I’m not totally sure. XD

Btw - this is “Ex Boyfriend Galore” because it has Chris, Nova, AND Benjy. If Robert had made an appearance, we’d have been set! …..
