He is climbing down a ladder, but he slips an falls. He jumps up and runs away into the night. I am not alone while watching this escape happen. The medical officer brings me outside the next night to show him where this man escaped from. This is when I met Green Eyes. I do not know her name but I know I love her. Auburn hair down to her shoulders frames the most beautiful face I have ever seen. Her smile brightens up the night around us. We talk about what we saw that night, secretly holding hands as we walk through the small town-like campus. These nightly walks become ritual for us. The night air is crisp and smells of freshly cut lawn. It is obvious that we are falling in love with each other during these nightly walks. We laugh non-stop. Its her smile that draws me in. Her teeth are straight and pure white. Her face emanates the happiness inside of her. I hold her from behind as we walk. Months pass, and the nights become warmer. The oranges and reds are dulled by the night sky.
Cut to a giant wrestling ring. The first rope stands twenty feet high with five feet between the four ropes. There are hundreds of people surrounding this square of fun. I am pulled into the ring and pushed to one of the top ropes, across from me sits an enormous man. His fat stomach stretches over his belt. Arms as thick as hams. The bell rings, people screaming. I am thrown into the fight at the same time as the fat man. I land the first punch, successfully knocking the fat man out. Cheers erupt around me and hundreds rush the ring. I am lifted onto the shoulders of those around me, looking down next to me a single smile flashes. Its her, my dream girl, my green eyed beauty. I climb down off the shoulders of my fans, and scoop her up into my arms. Staring into those green eyes I wake up.
