Fireflies

You would not believe your eyes if ten million fireflies lit up the world as I fell asleep…Story by. RainbowMunchies
Music by. Owl City
Ash woke slowly, a sweet scent filling his lungs. The ground around him was soft with the petals of billions of sky blue Forget-Me-Nots.
Above him, millions of golden orbs lit the dark field with a pulsing brilliance.
'Cause they fill the open air and leave teardrops everywhere…
Quickly he turned.
A girl stood a few feet behind him; her blue eyes alight with the flames that danced around them. A thin cotton dress of bright yellow gingham fluttered about her knees in a gentle breeze.
She smiled at him and held out her hand.
You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare…
Ash sat engrossed with her sheer beauty. His eyes shimmered chestnut and gold.
He knew this girl.
I'd like to make myself believe…
She stepped forward.
That planet Earth turns slowly…
Ash extended his hand.
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep…
What was this feeling?
'Cause everything is never as it seems…
He didn't want it to end.
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs…
The hill exploded in light as she leapt at him, throwing him backwards in a truly loving embrace.
They tumbled playfully and Ash knew love and never-ending joy and inner peace all at once.
From ten thousand lightning bugs…
"Kaaaa!" the girl laughed into his chest, their bodies tangled in a pile of mirth.
Her face lifted, and Ash grinned into endless sea-blue eyes, framed by a halo of
sparkling light and platinum blond hair.
As they tried to teach me how to dance…
All at once the two were on their feet, spinning giddily.
The lights around them blurred into a wall of stars, but each saw only the radiance of the other.
A fox trot above my head, a sock hop beneath my bed…
Ash pulled her close.
She grinned playfully at him, her white teeth illuminated, her cheeks a bright red.
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread...
She pulled away and held his hand as she ran across the field.
The flowers beneath them remained perfect, despite their carefree tromping.
I'd like to make myself believe…
The glittering spheres parted subserviently before them.
That planet Earth turns slowly…
The girl stopped suddenly in a burst of euphoria and spun in place.
Her dress flared around her in a yellow and white hodgepodge of raw innocence and beauty.
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep…
Ash's heart surged with love.
'Cause everything is never as it seems…
He jumped at her, giggling with anticipation.
When I fall asleep…
He caught her in a usaring-hug.
The flowers welcomed them softly.
Leave my door open just a crack (Please take me away from here)…
He looked into her eyes and saw years of undeclared love.
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac (Please take me away from here)…
The light around them burned more intensely than ever.
Why do I tire of counting sheep (Please take me away from here)…
Ash saw his shadow draped across her face. A smile held strong, but tears began to fall
from topaz stones.
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep…
They glittered in the light as they fell.
To ten million fireflies, I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes…
Ash leaned down every so gently.
I got misty eyes as they said farewell…
All she could see was umber fire…
But I'll know where several are If my dreams get real bizarre…
And the world was all at once the two of them.
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar…
Her hand came up to twine securely into ebony hair.
He moaned into her lips and they giggled softly together at the sensation.
I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly…
She smiled and rolled Ash over, leaning above him.
The flowers tickled his neck.
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep…
The light around them began to grow dimmer.
'Cause everything is never as it seems when I fall asleep…
Ash brought his hand up to feel her face; to memorize her features.
She leaned into his touch, her petite hand covering his own.
Her eyes shut delicately.
I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly…
Hazel eyes looked up in wonder.
His thumb traced circles on her cheek.
The tan skin blazed beneath his hand.
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep…
Her lips parted.
A soft sigh escaped.
'Cause everything is never as it seems…
A single tear fell.
It hit Ash's hand, and he wiped it away soothingly.
A smile formed.
When I fall asleep…
Ash's thumb traced bright pink in the ebbing radiance.
He pressed on her bottom lip, pulling it down tenderly.
I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly…
Love.
Love?
He sat up swiftly and crushed his lips to hers in an uncontrollable act of passion.
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep…
She pressed back.
Their lips mashed together in a symphony of pleasure.
'Cause everything is never as it seems…
Their breathing synchronized.
Their eyes shut tight, the bliss intensified.
When I fall asleep…
Is this what it felt to be complete?
To be whole?
To be filled to bursting?
I'd like to make myself believe…
Complacency isn't a sin.
It's a reward.
Like fitting the last piece of the puzzle into the rainbow of colors.
That planet earth turns slowly…
Hands frantically pulled everything closer.
The light was fading slowly, but the closed eyes saw nothing.
Their bodies fell bit by bit into space.
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay, awake when I'm asleep…
Ash felt the pressure fading.
Tears formed as the scent withdrew.
The light beyond his eyelids slurred.
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams…
A gasp escaped his lips as eyes of liquid bronze snapped open.
In his arms Pikachu slept, smiling blissfully-
A sky blue Forget-Me-Not clasped between her paws.
I don't own any aspect of Pokemon.
I don't own any aspect of Fireflies or Owl City.
