Dreaming of You

You're My Sunflower

— "Hey Miles, wanna get outta here?" Gwen's voice broke through my half-awake state as I rubbed my eyes, trying to shake off the drowsiness that clung to me. "What, now?" I asked, my thoughts still muddled from sleep. "Of course not now, doofus. It's late," Gwen replied with a chuckle, her sense of humor shining through even in the darkness of the night. "Anyway, we've pretty much checked out the whole place, though. Where else are we gonna go?" It was true. Over the past few weeks, we had explored Miguel's dimension extensively, leaving no stone unturned. It was like we knew the city like the back of our hands. "Mmm, how about my dimension?" Gwen's suggestion caught me off guard. I could feel the weight of the idea settle in, imagining the world in which Gwen grew up. "That actually sounds pretty good," I admitted, the thought of exploring her dimension piquing my curiosity. "Great! How does tomorrow sound? Meet up in the living room at 10?" Gwen's enthusiasm was palpable. "Sure thing," I agreed, my energy slowly returning as I began to embrace the idea. As Gwen looked at me with an air of anticipation, we stood in silence for a moment, the unspoken connection between us bridging the gap. "Umm, goodnight...?" I said, a touch of confusion in my voice, wondering why she lingered at my door. "Oh, yep. Goodnight," Gwen replied, her voice carrying a subtle hint of sadness as she finally walked away.

— Once Gwen had disappeared down the hallway, I quickly closed the door to my room, returning to the comforting cocoon of my blanket. I couldn't help but wonder why she had hesitated at the doorway, leaving me with a sense of curiosity that lingered as I drifted off to sleep.

...

— As I waited for Gwen in the living room, my heart danced with anticipation. The soft, warm glow of the morning sun streamed through the curtains, casting a gentle radiance across the room. Every passing moment felt like an eternity, constantly checking my phone for the time. And then, as if straight out of a dream, Gwen Stacy entered the room. My breath caught in my throat as I took in the sight before me. She was wearing a white sundress that seemed to capture the very essence of summer. The dress flowed gracefully, accentuating her every movement, and delicate lace patterns adorned it, adding a touch of elegance to her ensemble.

— Gwen's platinum blonde hair shimmered in the sunlight, framing her face like a halo. Light blue sandals adorned her feet, complementing the simplicity and charm of her outfit. Her presence filled the room with an enchanting energy, making the entire space come alive. Her radiant smile lit up her face, and it felt like the room brightened even more in response. I couldn't help but be in awe of her. The world around us seemed to fade away as she approached, leaving only Gwen, resplendent in her white sundress and light blue sandals. She looked like a vision of beauty, and I was captivated by her presence.

— Gwen was like a breath of fresh air. Her beauty and grace were a testament to the extraordinary person she was, both inside and out. As she came closer, my heart raced with the joy of being near her, and I couldn't help but feel incredibly lucky. I'd only ever seen her in her punk clothing, so this new side of her took me by surprise. This dress revealed a different side of Gwen, one I hadn't seen before. My mind blanking for a moment. "Earth to Miles! You there!" Gwen's voice snapped me out of my thoughts. "Well, what do you think?" She spun around, letting the dress sway in the air. "Umm..." I stammered, momentarily at a loss for words. "Oh, I guess I'll go change then," Gwen said with a hint of disappointment, turning to leave. "Wait!" I called out urgently as she turned around. "I think you look really..."

— "Really?" She prompted smirking. "Pretty," I mumbled, barely finding my voice. "Playboy," Gwen playfully interjected, nudging me with her fist. "Hey," I protested, and Gwen giggled at her own joke. "I feel like I should change," I said, looking down at my usual outfit with the jacket and Jordans. I suddenly felt like I needed to spruce up a bit for our day together. "You don't need to. I love the way you look just as you are!" Gwen replied with an affectionate smile, causing a blush to creep onto my cheeks. "So, where are we headed first?" I asked, attempting to change the subject. "What about a walk in the park?" Gwen suggested. "Starting off strong, are we?" I teased. "Shut up, you'll like it. Trust me," Gwen replied with a mischievous grin as she activated her watch creating a portal on the wall as we headed into the portal.
