recurring dream 2

I'm inside the flat. I walk over to the window and see the bustle in the street below. I turn and walk into the living room. I sit down at the computer and look over, she sits up and smiles. I start working on something, quickly getting immersed in the glowing screen. She gets dressed and comes over to me, whispers something in my ear and I smirk. She moves into the kitchen as I slowly get up and dress myself. I look in the mirror and see her coming up behind me. She's wearing a dress, it fits her perfectly. I gape at her, she giggles and wraps her arms around my waste. We talk at each other in the mirror and laugh. We make our way over to the door and put on our coats. We walk down a long staircase that leads out to the crowded street. I open the door and we wait for a gap in the people to get out. I take her hand and and we start walking. Everyone on the street is walking in the opposite direction. Noone touches me but they all seem to bump into her. I tighten my grip and lead her up the street. We eventually make it to a park bench at the end of the block. We sit and watch the people move. We look at each other and smile. She says something else and I check my watch. I stand up and take her hand again. We are going back the way we came, but again all the people in the streets are moving in the opposite direction. This time more and more she is being pummeled by body after body. It feels like I'm dragging her through the sea. After much effort we arrive back at the door. We climb the stairs and take off our coats. I sit down at the computer and begin working once again. She walks up behind me, spins the char and kisses me. I smile and brush her hair out of her eyes. She moves back into the bedroom and lays down. Then i wake up.
