i had the nightmare mostly all night every hour of the night i woke up. i finally stopped having them at around 7:00AM. when i finally stopped trying to fall asleep it was 9:00AM. i was really tierd. i put my white fluffy slippers on and my pink fluffy dressing gown and went to the control room hopeing to see the doctor messing round with the controls. but when i went in there there was no-one there at all, not even river was there. i went to see if i could find some food.

when i found the kitchen there were so much cabinates filled with food. i got out some food and made me some breakfast. after around 5 minutes i heard the door open. i looked and i saw river walk in. she looked so tierd. i couldnt say more for myself, we could both tell we were both tierd.

"didn't have any sleep." river said. i shook my head and looked down at my breakfast. i looked back at river and said "want some?" i asked. she looked hungry. "yes please" she replied. i made her some breakfast and handed it to her.

"how is he?" i asked at her, hoping she would give me good news. but she looked sad. "we woke up threw most of the night with him. i've never seen him like this before." she replied looking like she was about to cry.

as i finished our food, i went to go see the doctor. he was still lying in bed, pale faced. "hey, feeling any better?" i asked. he looked at me and shook his head. "worse?" i asked. he shook his head again. "same?" i asked. he nodded. i walked over to the doctor and felt his forehead. he was still burning up scince last night. i went and got a towl from the cuboard and started whipeing the sweat from his forehead.when i was done the towl was soaking.

"your still burning up" i said still wipeing the sweat from his body. he wriggled round in pain clutching his stomach. i put my hands on his stomach aswell, which seemed to comfort him.

when the pain went away, the doctor looked at me and said "you've had a nightmare havent you" he smiled, first time i'd seen him smiling in a while. it made me feel happy, maybe he was getting better.

i nodded. he said "what was it about?" i looked down at my hands for a minute. i didn't want to say, i didn't want to know what the reaction would be. but he is a good man. he is one of my best friends. and he has been scince i was a child.

"charlotte, you ok? what was the dream?" i finally noiticed that i was still im the doctors bedroom. he was staring at me. "oh i-its nothing." i said shaking my head. "come on parker (thats my last name) you can tell me." he said putting his hand on his hand on my back.

"well, ok. my dream was if you became ill and i mean seriously ill and so ill that you couldn't recover and you...ACHOO!" I sneezed at the end. "you ok?" the doctor looking at me concerned. "yeah i just had a bit of that cold left thats all." i replied rubbing my nose. "by the way charlotte, i will always get better, i can promise you that." he said. i nodded.

It was a few hours before we went to bed. It had been a long day. The doctor seemed to be getting better. He wasn't throwing up as much as he was. I think he will be better by tomorrow.
