"Run!" Caleb called grabbing my hand tugging me behind him.

I felt like crying but, this was no time to be emotional.

"You have to go faster he's right behind us!" I whisered harshly.

"Go! get in there!" I whispered pointing at a small cave opening.

"Hurry get in!" Caleb shoved me forward.

I crawled in and got as far back into the hole I could. I saw a tiny hole to the left I could fit through but didnt bother. "It's small but I think we can sqeeze"

Caleb quickly crawled in covering my body. "Shh" He hissed.

Their he was. The strange man. Walking observing the whole beach. "Come out, come out where ever you are.." The man intimidated.

"Caleb.." I whispered in his ear.

He knudged me seliently telling me to shut up.

The man walked away.

"I'm going to make sure he's gone; you stay here!" Caleb urged crawling out of the cave.

I could barely hear Caleb's silent footsteps. I sat their for what felt like forever.

"Caleb?" I quietly asked. I crawled out of the cave. "Caleb?" I called.

"Run.." Caleb slurred limping around a huge bulder with his face bloody and his arms and legs cut up. He grabed his stomach were he was brutally stabed. "Carry.. run.." He repeated.

"Caleb! What did he do to you?!" I cried running to him.

" I said run!" He yelled.

I knodded my head crying. I ripped his necklace off and held his hand. "Okay..I love you." I said turning and running.

The man stepped out and pointed a gun at me. The man's face was covered so I couldn't tell who it was. I held Caleb's necklace to my heart. My eyes fluttered closed. A gun shot went off.

I gasped opening my eyes. It was still dark. I got out of bed and got a drink of water. I felt my neck and it was sweating. I looked at the picture of Caleb on my dresser. I had a bad feeling about someting. Something was wrong. I picked up the phone and called Caleb.

"Hello?" Caleb answered half asleep.

"Caleb? Are you okay?" I asked.

"Yeah why? Is everything alright?" He asked

"Yeah.. I just had a bad dream and I had a bad feeling about something. I just wanted to see if your okay.."

"I'm fine...Go back to sleep and I'll pick you up at noon to go on our trip okay?" He reasured me.

"Okay.. Love you."

"I love you."

I hung up. I crawled back into bed and didn't fall asleep for another hour.

I woke up at 8:00 am and got into comfortible clothes. I packed the rest of my bag and before I knew it Caleb was picking me up.

We listened to the radio as Caleb sang along. Not very well I might add.

"You must have been really scared last night if you called me at four in the morning.. Did something happen?" Caleb asked turning off the radio.

"I was really scared..I had an awful nightmare.."

"What was it about?"

"You and I were somewhere. I dont remember were...A man was after us. I never saw his face just his feet and his gun.." I took a deep breath. "We were running. We crawled into this...hole I think.. When you thought he passed you went and checked if it was safe..I crawled out cause I didn't know where you were or if you were okay..Your arms, legs stomach and face was all bloody and cut. You told me to run. I ripped off ur necklace and ran. He pointed the gun at me then..Well then I woke up and called you.."

"I'm sure it was just a dream and it didn't mean anything.."

"I don't know.. I've been getting these dreams..yesterday it was my mom falling down the stairs getting hurt. another time it was my sister getting into a car accident. I just have a bad feeling about this... I-I just don't know.."

"Maybe you dreamed about your mom and sister because you just moved out and your worried.."

"I'm sure thats it...But the thing that scares me is that...I can't explain the dreams about you.."

Caleb reached over and put the back of my head in his palm and rubbed my head with his thumb. "I'm sure it's just a dream..." He smiled.

"I'm so excited about this trip to the beach!! You sure your uncle doesn't mind us using it?" I quickly changed the subject.

"Nope! He is happy his cottage is going to use. He says the water jets are open for us to us too!"

"Sounds like so much fun! I can't believe how pretty the cottage looked in the pictures!"

"It doesn't compare to how beautiful you are.."

I scooted closer and kissed his cheek. "Thank you." I smiled. "What other wild and crazy things are we going to do on this trip?"

"I don't know yet."

"Have you been here before?"

"No my uncle used to rent it out after he moved out of there. never spent a weekend.."

"Well now you get to see it."

"Yea maybe we'll find something really cool and worth something! Maybe even human bones!" Caleb laughed sarcastically.

I laughed. "Maybe!"

"What's the first thing you want to do when you get their?" He asked.

"I want to go to the beach!"

"Typical girl."

"What you don't?"

"No I do! It sounds fun the to play in the water!" he laughed.

"Whatever as long as your their with me." I smiled.

"We're almost there."

"How long?"

"ten maybe fifteen minutes.."

"We're making good time its only 10:35."

"Yeah."

"Any good stores around here?"

"Yeah theirs one up the beach they call it the 'Ocean floor'."

"We'll have to walk up there it sounds cool."

"Yeah my uncle use to work their. He would always bring my back something cool.. One time he gave me a shark in a jar."

"Ew! What?!"

"They put dead baby sharks in a jar and you name it. I loved that gift! It's cool to look at!"

"Sounds gross."

"It is.."

"Then why do you like it so much?"

"It was cool to look at! Pluse I didn't see my uncle much and when I would miss him I'd look at my shark."

"Aw! Thats sweet."

"You didn't know I could be sensitive?" he laughed.

"No I knew you could. It's really cool to see you like that though."

"We're here!" Caleb cheered.

"Wow it's prettier than in the pictures!"

"I know right..My Uncle built this himself.."

"Oh thats really cool!"

I jumped out of the car and ran up the steps. I opened the door and ran in. I set down my bags as my jaw droped open.

"What?" Caleb asked.

"This is all so familiar..The bathroom is that way." I said pointing to a door. "The bedrooms are down the hall to the right. The basement is to the left when you walk into the kitchen and the attick stairs are in the basement hallway." I discribed standing in front of the front door.

"Spooky..Have you been here before.."

"Never.."

"Then how did you know?" Caleb asked.

"I'm not sure..." I mumbled.
