"Ms Johnson, I think you should get an early night today as tomorrow is a big day for you," one of the hospital nurses informed me as I was sitting on the couch watching the news with all the other 'in-mates'.

I obliged as there was nothing really interesting on T.V. - just another one of those 'Dear John' movies that everybody seem to love so much- and walked to my room while taking in the clean hospital smell and realising that this was my last night here. I looked to my left and saw Jenna Milton, once again, fighting the nurse at taking her daily medication. I never really understood why she- or rather they, always did that. I mean wouldn't you want to get better soon so you can be out of here? But then again it all depends on if you really have somewhere to go. Jenna and I never really had a conversation about anything. We had a 'hi and bye' kind of relationship, but from what I have heard, her parents wanted to abort her when her mother.was four months pregnant and tried hard to give her up for adoption after having her. Apparently thats How she ended up here.

My roommate wasn't in our room, as usual, when I got there. Probably trying to sneak out again. She never stops trying. No matter how many times she failed, she tried harder. She always used to try and convince me to go with her but I always refused. Believe it or not, this place has kinda grown on me...

Dosing off to sleep never was easy for me, partly because of the daily nightmares I have had since two and a half years ago, after the day of the accident.

I was running but from what? It was a faceless creature. What does it was from me, I have nothing to offer. Does it maybe want my soul? No, it could'nt. Why would it want a broken soul like mine? I don't-didn't understand. But it didn't matter why, all I knew was that I had to run. Away from it, away from everything. Because if I didn't...

Something caught on my shoe and distracted me from my thoughts. I was stuck. I couldn't get loose and the creature got closer and closer but still there was no hint of it's identity.

It has got me.....

"No no please stop." I found my self saying out loud and waking up poor Jessica.

"Sshhh, it's OK. It was just a nightmare. Nothing to worry about," I heard Jessica say as two nurses barge in with their clear-liquid filled syringes. We did the whole routine again.

1. Lift my nightgown up

2. Wait for the stinging pain

3. Fight the urge to sleep as to avoid another nightmare (It never works)

4. Drift off to sleep

Oh how lucky I am to have Jessica in my life. I am almost glad to leave her so she never has to wake up in the middle of the night because of me. I sure will miss having someone like her around.

I wonder if she thought the same. My paranoia was getting the best of me.
