You're not so afraid of the dark, you even find calmness in it. And that means late night walk is really your thing. But the thing that bothers you the most is, you're always alone. That makes you wonder, not that you're scared or something.. but wouldn't it be better if someone is there for you to be alone with?
As the cold night breeze hit your skin, you put on the earphones as you usually do. Music is a must when you're having a night walk. Or maybe it's just because you don't have someone to talk to.
It was finally 1am sharp when you looked at the watch on your wrist. You stopped your tracks as you saw an empty bus stop welcoming you. It was too late at midnight so you were hesitating whether to ease the exhaustion for a while or just walk home right away. And so you thought to yourself, a minute of rest won't hurt right? No one is here anyway.
As the music was still blessing your ears, you placed yourself on the bus stop bench then straight away started imagining some fake scenarios to catch up with the mood the music gives. And to match it better, you closed your eyes.
You were so into it until his feature automatically appeared in your mind. Your most favorite face to imagine, the main character in almost all of your scenarios. None other than him, Jake.
Even at the thought of his name could make your mind go crazy. You picked a masquerade party in a ballroom for today's fantasy. You began imagining him in front of you, dressed expensively wearing fabrics of white, blue and gold. Along with a grand masquerade mask covering half of his insanely handsome visual. It was decorated professionally with some glitters and dark feather.
And you as well, there is no other time that you can wear this kind of outfit in reality. So you used the chance in your dreams. The dark silks and chiffons looked very good on you. The masquerade mask designed specially to balance the beauty even it didn't show your face.
You spun around flexing the elegant dress you had on. Jake was so busy enjoying the mesmerizing view in front of him, that was you. He slowly walked towards you with a hand reaching in front. This was the moment you've been waiting for a long time. To hold his big yet soft hand with pink knuckles, is like a dream come true.
You firmly reached his hand as a sign that you agreed to have a dance with him. As the slow melody started, Jake wrapped his arm around your waist and pulled your body closer to his. You could feel his hot breath beneath your skin. No sound could be heard except the music for you to waltz with your dance partner. The tension between the both of you was not an awkward one. You and him were just too busy admiring each other to even have a lil talk.
But something doesn't seem right as his smile slowly faded in the middle of the dance. The harmonic melody earlier suddenly changed into a whole new disco song. You couldn't stand the noisy sound because it was too loud. The eyes of yours immediately closed because of the weird feeling you were having. You could feel the sudden tight grasp Jake did to your hand and your waist. You still didn't able to open your eyes as your heart beats faster than usual. The odd feeling really makes you uncomfortable.

Your pair of eyes finally opened.
You heaved a sigh of relief until you realized that all of the scenes earlier were just your fake scenarios, your own creation, which was actually a good news.
You worried about something else.
The unharmonious clubbing song was still playing. It didn't disappear how Jake did. Yeah of course he disappeared, he was just your imagination afterall. But the noises, you remembered it clearly that they're not part of the creation in your mind. Am I still dreaming or is this actually real?
