"Lucid Dreamer"

 

It was a night like no other, I was lying comfortably asleep in by big soft king-size bed, there was a slight breeze blowing through the huge open windows of the room. I remember having this wild dream.

In this dream, I was on a desert island, the beaches were of golden tones, the palm trees of vivid green, the surrounding seas of deepest blue, and the forests sounding of exotic music. I was almost completely naked, all but for three fig leaves that each covered my most personal parts. I felt great. I felt free.

Then as I scouted the island, searching for some clue to where this island may be, I came across a beautiful tropical lagoon. I decided that I would go for a dip, as far as I knew, I was the only one on the island, so I stripped off the fig leaves and dived in.

The water was so warm. As I came up from the bottom of the lagoon, I thought I saw a man, a handsome man, and he was smiling at me. His smile was hauntingly enticing and it made me feel unusually, very stimulated.

As I broke the surface of the water and regained my breath, I saw him there, in front of me. I do not know who he is or what he is doing here. I asked him his name, but he did not reply. I was so amazed of just how handsome this man was, so masculinely beautiful. His eyes were beckoning to me; his body was summoning me. Then before I knew it we were making wild, primitive love! The sexual tension between us was unusual, strange yet familiar. The fires burned deep inside both of us as, each of us could sense with the other. Passion knew no boundaries...

Then as quick as it happened and as sexual as it was the image broke and I was just left with a vivid dream. I still felt great though! I laid there for a moment or two, thinking about the dream that I had just experienced. Wondering...

Then I decided that it was time for me to get up and get dressed for my first day at work. And to my surprise, all I had on was three fig leaves. I was awestruck! Had I sleepwalked? Putting it to the back of my mind, I continued to dress for work.

Once I arrived at work, and was shown to my new desk - being my first secretarial position ever - I was a little nervous. I didn't even know who my boss was yet. So I organised everything, just to the way I liked it. Then I got a beep on the intercom, and was asked for a report from the filing cabinet. So, I found the document and then I went over and knocked on my boss's door, and walked straight in. And there was my boss sitting in the huge leather chair, behind a big polished mahogany desk, facing out the extended windows with his back to the door I had just walked through. I said that the report was ready for him and as he turned the chair around, to take the documents out of my hands, and then he looked up. The look on his face, well it was hard to describe, but it made me feel rather uncomfortable. And then after a moment had passed, he looked deep into my eyes and said, "How was the water? You are a very good diver!" And then I saw that this, he, was the man from in my dreams...
