I gasped and took deep breaths. I looked around the room and wondered how I got here... in bed. in my cabin.

I swallowed and rubbed my hand against my face.

That is one way to wake up.

I was a sweaty and really clammy. I should take a shower before breakfast because I feel dirty. But when I looked at the clock, I widened my eyes and my mouth dropped.

It's already half past 12!?! We always eat breakfast around 10 o'clock. What if they already ate? What if they just left?

Normally, I would wake up way earlier, but I was too caught up in my nightmare. It felt so real. So raw.

I really didn't like this one. I've had nightmares since I can remember. The impact of it can differ. Most of the times, it's simple, not that bad. But this time, it was one of the bad ones. I was so caught up in this one. It felt like it was never going to end. I've had ones where I was so caught up, I just woke up at 3 in the afternoon.

Yes, I have been late for school many times because of this. If it's really bad, I just ask Ron to call me in sick.

All my nightmares have the same scenario. One, it always rains. Never had one where it wasn't raining. It suits the mood really. Dark and unpleasant. Two, the topic is always abandonment. Whether it's about my parents, or just friends. And three, I always wake up a little flustered, clammy, and warm.

I never tell anyone about them. Always keep them hidden behind the door. Well, except for Ron and Cassie. But that's why it was weird Harry could see I had some issues with myself so fast. I never told my parents, and I don't think Ron has Harry's number.

Maybe he does. Maybe they're just communicating through the phone and trying to get information out of me. Maybe they're all plotting against me.

Okay. Probably not.

It's just weird knowing Harry can see through me. Like it was so easy for him to notice. What if my parents noticed it too? Oh no. Maybe they won't come back to pick me up and go home. And I have to live here forever.

Cassie once told me I scream in my sleep. I could only imagine something like that, because sometimes when I wake up, my voice hurts. That's why it's nice my parents sleep with ear plugs. They've never noticed.

I haven't had many nightmares when I was with Cassie. It's like I'm more relaxed. More at ease.

It's so weird. I know what's going to happen in my nightmares. I know that it's not real. But when I have my nightmare, it's like I forget everything. My common sense just flies out the door. The nightmare, it just feels so real you know. I can't make it stop. That's why it's so horrible. And it just happens over and over again.

Where is Yoda? I haven't fed him yet. He is probably very hungry

Suddenly, I heard a knock on my door.

What?

"Jules, you up?" I heard Louis say

"uhm- yes" I answered. So, they haven't left?

"can I come in?" he asked with a calm voice.

"yeah of course." I replied and the door carefully opened. Louis poked his head inside and asked in concern, "you ok?"
