eyes and looked tiredly around the room. Nothing. There it was again. And again. What was that?
I sat up straighter now looking fully round the room. I court movement in the corner and looked there until I could swear I could see dots where I’m eyes were rebelling against being used so much and in such an early hour. I blinked a couple of times but the black dots were still there obscuring my vision so that all was left was a small part of my bed side light which was switched off. Fat lot of good that was doing. I reached to turn on the lamp and blearing light flooded the room but no sooner had the light come on it went straight back off again.
Oh! Oh no… please no!
I felt Cody’s warm breath before I felt his freezing cold hands around my neck. My breath court off before I could even think to breath leave me with no option but to lay there unable to breath. I brought my hands up to my neck trying to grasp my attackers hands before they truly managed in there attempted at strangulation. Black spats were starting to pear in front of my eyes and I could feel myself getting weaker. I tried and tried to get my hands up and pull away Cody’s hands but when I finally accomplished this I realized I could not grab hold of anything! I struggled again trying to get up but I was pinned down by my neck. Slowly everything was starting to go black. Blacker than before I could not even see my eyelids as they came down in front of my eyes and I slowly started to drift away…..
Darker….
Darker…
Gone…
I was in a field with red roses all around. Was this really one of those dreams where people just wander around aimlessly dancing and singing like in ‘Maria?’ it was strange that I knew I was in a dream had that ever happened before?
I looked around me at my surroundings stopping every so often thinking that I saw movement but when I looked again there really was nothing but flowers and flowers and more flowers. Not just flowers either but red roses. Red rose after red rose. Okay starting to get freaked out where the hell am I?
I looked around me again and again but there was still nothing, nothing at all! I span and span until I fell to the ground dizzy. Closing my eyes and then quickly opening them and blinking several times. I stared up at the clear blue sky with no clouds in sight and the sun bearing down on me. It was the most perfect sky I had ever seen before and probable ever would since sky’s like theses didn’t exist in the real world. There was something about this sky though that put me on edge. Like I had said nothing like this would be in the real world and it was starting to darn on me how eerie this whole scene really was.
I sprang up from the crushed roses and stood staring around the field looking for something anything that would help me with where I was. Nothing, nothing at all.
I looked back down at where I had been lying just seconds before and when I had sprung up there had been crushed roses in m y shape. Now I looked down and then around me looking for those crush flowers that had been there only moments ago. Had I moved in my search? I didn’t think so but something told me that nothing had happened. What was going on? This has got to be the weirdest dream I have ever had!
I sat down on the newly un-flattened ground and put my face in my hands. I sat like that for what felt like ages but when I looked up everything was still exactly the same. Right going crazy this is a really beautiful place yet I’m sitting here feeling like I’m in a toureter chamber. CRAZY!
I lay back down on the flowers and closed my eyes willing myself to just wake up! I had the weirdest feeling like I was being watched and theses flowers were not helping! Perfect did not even begin to cover it!
Suddenly I was sure I could feel a breeze picking up in the field and opened my eyes to see storm clouds covering the sky. Slow drops of freezing cold water came splashing down to my face. I started to get up but realized that I was stuck. I looked down and saw that while I had been laying there on the roses they had somehow raped there vines around my arms. I tried pulling at them and quickly realized that they were not going to give. I continued helplessly but looked down at my legs where more vines were just starting to clime the way up my legs and on to my waist. I was struggling like crazy when I felt cold slowly sinking into my large T-shirt and shorts were already drenched. I pulled and pulled but it did not good.
Pulling at the vines that were now rapping their way around my neck and waist I saw that the rain was actually hale and the pain in my left eyebrow was from a direct hit with one. Ouch! Ouch ouch! I was really starting to freak out when the vines reached my chin and cheeks and the spicks really started to dig into me.
The sharp vines were starting to hurt like crazy and I started to scream. When they finally reached my mouth I was still struggling to get out but the vines only tightened and the pain increased. I could feel the breath being taken away from me as I vines covered my mouth and moved up to my nose and ears. Soon I would be completely covered and there was nothing I could do! I gave up struggling and just closed my eyes willing once again for waking hours.
I was shaking with the pain and still trying to scream but could not make a sound. I could feel the pain as I slowly lost all the breath in my body and started to pull uselessly for air. To no success.
Suddenly every inch of my body went numb and I opened my eyes to the white walls of my bedroom. I gasped for air and put my hands up to my neck.
W-w-what?
I felt something touch my arm and I screamed jumping off bed and falling straight onto the floor. Landing with a thud and looking back up to the bed to see what it was that had touched my arm.
“Are you okay Hun? I didn’t mean to frighten you.” I heard my Mum say. Oh my god! Thank god!
“Sorry over reacted….. Bad dream” I muttered picking myself up from the carpeted floor.
“I know Hun I’ve been here for the last ten minutes. You’ve been tossing and turning. You were screaming just a minutes ago. Sweet are you okay? Really?” he asked as I sat back down on the bed and looked over to the space where my Mum was sitting with a flannel in her hand. I realized that she had been trying to comfort me by putting a wet flannel on my head I also realized just how hot I was it wasn’t even that hot in the room. Come to think about it, it was freezing!
“Oh I didn’t realize. I’m fine though just a dream.” I said looking around the room waiting for my head to stop its spinning. Well this is great I now have my Mum worried about me! Again! I don’t even know what that stupid dream was about.
Suddenly I saw a white hand near my wall and had to bite my tongue to stop from screaming.
The memory of what had happened before the dream came flooding back. It was all I could do to stop myself from jumping right back off the bed and back onto the floor to hide. Instead I saw out of the corner of my eye my Mum looking in the same direction and gasp. Oh crap.
“Why is your window open? No wonder you’re having bad dreams!” she scolded standing up quickly and walking over to my window and closing it. No sooner had she closed it, it ope4nd again and Mum had to reseal with it to close it again. Mean while I was still staring at the ghostly hand near my far wall.
I lifted my hand to my neck and sure enough it hurt like crazy at the slightest touch. My breathing increased at this and my eyes widened. My heard feels like it is hampering its way out of my chest. Why now? I closed my eyes willing it to just go away then realized I was being a complete wimp and re opened them and stood up. Was I really scared of something I couldn’t even see? Hell yes! Well that didn’t really matter because if he had wanted to kill me already tonight he would have when he had been strangling me! Why come back?
I saw a piece of paper fall to the floor then a slowly the hand started to disappear back into the darkness of my room. Finally I heard my Mum slam my window down and yelp when the noise vibrated up her arm.
I quickly turned to face her and walked other to my window looking down. There was nothing there. Why did I really think I was going to see something there? I just had this impulse to walk over there. Okay still freaked out. I’m not going mad. I hope.
I heard the phone go down stairs and nearly jumped right out the window. God jumpy much!
I shook my head and scrambled out of the room glancing at the clock 6:59am who the hell was calling this early and how long had I been dreaming? I shivered at the thought of my dream which still left me with a weird disturbed feeling like when you have just walked from a really warm room to a really cold one. Strange strange definition!
I entered the hall and pulled the phone off the hock saying something that sounded like hello but really it could have been anything!
“Rose? What did you just say? Was that English? God it’s not even that early. Oh wait yeah it is….. sorry” Megan. I really was going to have to get that girl a watch that was the right time. She even answered her own questions. This was only annoying me now since I was in a bad mood with the dream and my through was really starting to sting. I wondered over to the mirror with the phone still in my hand. I lifted my head so I could see my long neck better. Nothing. Nothing at all. No red finger marks no nail marks nothing. Had I really imagined all that? I mean my neck was hurting but there was nothing there!
I realized quickly that Megan was talking to me again apoligising for waking me I think but my mind had wondered and I was kind off freaking out again. My breath was coming fast and I had no control over it! I leaned my head against the wall and closed my eyes. Putting the phone down on the side table next to its holder. I heard it fall to the ground but I didn’t care the noise in my head was deafening. I heard air rushing around my head and then everything went black.
“Hello? Rose?
I sat up straighter now looking fully round the room. I court movement in the corner and looked there until I could swear I could see dots where I’m eyes were rebelling against being used so much and in such an early hour.
