Scenarios To Fall Asleep To Novels & Stories

Winning Lucian’s trust was the next big task, and I was ready for it. As I lay on the bed, exhausted from the day’s events, I tried to let my mind rest. But as soon as my eyes fluttered shut, I felt an odd sensation, like I was being pulled from reality. It was subtle at first, like drifting into a deep sleep, but then the feeling intensified, and the world around me started to blur. The walls of my room melted away, and in their place was an endless expanse of soft moonlight and shadows.

I was just getting myself worked up over some crazy, twisted scam. I decided the best thing to do before my mind got too far out of control was to climb in my little shelter and just go to sleep. I had a feeling it would be a long night and early morning. Despite my best efforts I couldn’t help thinking of prince charming and white knights as I fell asleep. ***

Would exposing his secrets only bring more pain and danger? I laid there, my mind racing with scenarios, each one more terrifying than the last. Eventually, the fatigue of the day took over, and my eyelids grew heavy. I didn't resist the pull of sleep, letting it envelop me like a warm blanket. I didn't dream of the mansion or Mr. Luca, or even of Harrison and Rachel. Instead, my mind was a blissful void, free from the tangled web we'd woven.

She stood watch near the front exit to our cave. "Now go to sleep, before I shoot the ceiling and drop some big rocks on your heads." Aya figured out how to sleep with my altered biorhythms. Perhaps my 'fourth' cerebral pattern connected my peace of mind, warm memories and sense of safety to be an indicator to let me submerge into my closest facsimile to sleep since I passed out at the end of the Tadêfi/Sikia three-way.

After I said that, he hummed and left. I took a deep breath and forced myself to stop thinking about it. I closed my eyes and imagined that everything was all dark to let myself fall asleep so easily without thinking too much. I thought I would fall asleep this way, since this is my technique whenever I can't fall asleep, and I would just imagine that I am floating, closing my eyes and everything around me is dark. I waited for a while to let my consciousness also float away, but I suddenly heard a familiar voice speaking in front of me.

XERAPHINA As my phone alarm goes off, I groan, feeling the exhaustion coursing through my whole body. It’s clear I could use a day to relax and unwind. Blinking rapidly, I reach for my phone, determined to silence the annoying alarm. Suddenly, I’m pulled into a warm and comforting embrace, strong arms encircling me. In that moment, my mind struggles to process and remember the events of the previous night, particularly the memory of falling asleep with Cassius by my side. The unique scent that emanates from him enters my nostrils, prompting a contented hum to escape my lips.

And although I’m used to it at this point, my narcolepsy still impairs the way I function to an uncomfortable degree. Well, it could be worse. Luke claims mine isn’t even that bad. There were narcoleptics that dropped asleep up to forty to sixty times per day, or more. The most I’d dozed off in a day is twenty-nine times. I’m not scared of falling asleep —I used to be, but not anymore. Now I’m more scared of what I might wake up to.

I couldn’t see his face, but if I had to guess, I would say he was more than likely smiling right now. I started to feel more exhausted but I blinked my eyelids in rapid succession trying to keep myself from falling asleep. It didn’t seem to be working through because a few seconds later I fell asleep. The all-familiar fall into a black abyss terrified me. It had always lead to the start of a nightmare and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t wake myself up. I just kept falling.

He bit his lip to give me what I wanted until suddenly we both arched our backs and knew we had reached the point of happiness. I can't sleep, I've been tossing and turning for hours and every passing second is worse than the last. I lie down on my back and close my eyes. I start counting apples falling from my favorite tree. By the third one, I'm already fed up, and I sit up in bed. Why can't I sleep?

I scoffed at the images and then shut my eyes. I closed it tightly and tried to sleep. I turned to the other side of the bed trying to get a more comfortable space. I laid there for a few seconds staring at nothing in particular. I was just there, reminiscent of how things could have been different if I wasn't here. "Fucking hell," I blurted when all attempts to fall asleep wasn't working and I kept creating scenarios in my head. I stood up from the bed and took off my clothes. I let my dress fall to the floor and then I walked to the bathroom and turned on the shower.
