Thomas the tank engine

I woke up in the middle of the night and , thirsty , went down the stairs to have a drink, only to discover that Thomas the tank engine was standing in my living room. I was shocked , how could a fictive character be in my house? I couldn’t stop staring at the blue machine standing in front of me. I decided to pinch myself to make sure I wasn’t dreaming and I wasn’t, all of this was real. Thomas the tank engine was standing in the same room as me. “ Hello mister Cuthbert , can I help you?” Thomas said. My eyes widened. It talked.

Memories from my childhood flashed in front of my eyes. As a kid I couldn’t without pulling my Thomas the tank engine and now he was standing in front of me. Thomas looked at me as if he was waiting for me to say something. “ Why are you here?” I asked. Thomas smiled. “I am here to take you on a trip, mister Cuthbert. Remember when you used to take me everywhere? I’m here to return the favour” He answered proud. “ Where are we going or am I not allowed to know?” I answered, I smiled at him. “We are going to the future.” I raised one eyebrow. “Now , mister Cuthbert , please get in. We have a lot to do before 6 a.m.” I looked at my watch and saw that it was already 3 a.m. I walked towards him and climbed on top of him. “Are you ready , sir?” He asked. “I think so , and please call me Josh.” I could feel that he was smiling. “Sure , Josh.” Before I knew it there was a giant hole in my wall and we were going straight towards it. I closed my eyes and held my breath.

“Josh , you can open your eyes again and breathe for god’s sake!” Said Thomas. I opened my eyes and took a deep breath. I was out of breath. While I was still breathing heavily after holding my breath for 2 minutes , Thomas stopped. “Here we are , mister Cuthbert. I mean Josh.” We were standing in front of a huge brick house that looked a lot like my house. “Why are we here?” I asked. “ Well Josh , we are here because this day is an important day in your future.” Thomas said. Before I could answer the front door of the house opened. I was astonished to see that I was the one leaving the house. I looked a few years older but I still looked good. The future me walked towards the house next to his. “Is he or am I able to see us?” I asked. “No , you’re not. Now let’s follow you.” We walked toward the future me and watched as he rang the doorbell of the house. My eyes widened when a beautiful girl opened the door. I could hear my heartbeat getting louder as I got closer. I couldn’t keep my eyes off of the girl. “Can I help you?” The beautiful angel asked the future me. “I’m sorry to bother you, my name’s Josh. I’ve got a rather awkward question for you. Somehow the door of my bathroom got stuck and I really need to go to the bathroom, do you mind if I use yours?” The girl giggled. “Of course not , my name is Fay.” “Fay.” I mumbled while looking at her. She was gorgeous, I could feel a warm ticklish feeling in my stomach. Thomas was standing next to me. “ Why did you bring me here?” I asked. “ I wanted you to know who you’re getting married with in future.” He answered. I couldn’t help but smile. I loved her already. All of a sudden I heard something make an annoying noise and I closed my eyes. “ Daddy wake up! Come on dad! You have to take us to school!” I opened my eyes. I looked around and saw 2 children sitting in front of me on the cough. A boy and a girl , behind them stood a beautiful girl. I looked closer and saw that it was Fay. I was holding something in my hands. It was Thomas the tank engine. Then it all made sense. I had been dreaming.
