~~RUBY POV~~

Out of instinct, I pull up my body with my hands, my head a bit wet in sweat, my breaths fast and slightly shaky... I could've sworn I heard a voice just now...

I pant, and pant... my brain suddenly asks something....where am I?

I turn my head up to the room I'm in, and glance around. It's my bedroom.

Oh, I forgot... dreams....nightmares... "maybe I should get a checkup," I mumble to myself.

I look to my left, and see a water bottle on my side table. Oh right, I left this here, since water usually helps me calm down..

I scoot over to my left, then stretching and reaching my hand for the bottle.

"𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵... 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘦𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘦𝘦---"

"AuGH!" The water bottle suddenly disappears, and I stretched my hand so far I yeeted myself off the bed, and onto the floor, landing on my butt. "Ow..."

Wait... did the bottle just...disappear? I look back at the side table, and it's...there. Wait, no it isn't- wait it is- wait no- wait huh? Each time I blink, it disappears and appears?

I pull myself up, groaning, as I sloppily walk over to the bed side table.

I blink twice, the water bottle is there. I reach my hand for it while squinting my eyes....

"Gotcha!" I catch it while smiling with furrowed brows, immediately pulling my hand away from the table.

I raise my right hand to the top of the bottle, turning the cap and...

It disappears.

Whoops, did I blink?? I wave my right hand infront of my eyes.

I try to blink, but I... can't, for some reason.

My eyes start to get watery.

I throw the water bottle across the room, then reached my hands to my eyes.

I grab my eyelids, and try to push them down.

"𝘶𝘶𝘳𝘨𝘩!" It isn't working for some reason!

I keep trying... for half a minute straight. Now I'm desperate.

I come to my senses. This can't be right, I should be in a nightmare! What can I do...

Then one thing crossed my mind.

One thing.

One thing...

I run and push open my bedroom door, running to my kitchen.

I grab a knife.

I stab myself.

Oh wait, where should I stab? Oh yeah, the eyes, that's a genuinely good idea.

...

"HUP!" I jump out of my lying position, landing on the bed in a standing one.

"Has to be the end of it now." I say with a smile. A...fake smile. While trying to hide and calm down my rapid breathing.

I look around, and this time, I don't see a water bottle to my left. Whew, I don't remember putting one there at all.

Though maybe I should.
