Only in my dreams ( Book one of the Secret Embrace Series)

Liam

Ch. 7 Liam

I walk inside and head up to my room. Time to show these flip flops who's boss! An idea pops into my head so I toss them off my feet, head for my dresser, open up my drawer, and get my scissors.

I have one of the flip flops in my hand and the other hand is holding the scissors when my mother walks in, she has a shocked expression on her face at first, and then she notices what I am doing and starts laughing.

" Ash what happened today to make you want to torture your shoes?" she smiles and almost starts laughing again when I try to look innocent. "....Or do I want to know?" she asks curiously.

" These "things " make me clumsier than I already am..and you know how hard that is to do!" I look at the "things " Because of them I have been tripping all day." I pout remembering all the things they caused today..ugh like Liam catching me..I look at the shoes again..you are so getting it when she walks out!

" Well sweetie I don't know what to tell you...you always have been a tad bit clumsy..and if you wanna take it out on your shoes then go ahead...but is that all that is bothering you...because you know you can tell me if there is ...you can tell me anything you know that." she smiles a warm smile and sits with me on my bed.

I want to tell her everything that has been bothering me ...like not just these stupid death shoes..but how I can not remember my dreams..at all no matter how hard I try..and how something is in the back of my mind everytime I see Adien or like today a willow tree..and the feelings I have for Adien when we touched, ...the butterflies.. the electricity when he looks at me...and like he is always searching for something in my eyes..I want to ask her why Liam and Adien look like they can't stand each other and they just met today for crying out loud. I wanna know why Adien wrote that poem...but more importantly I want answers to all these questions!

But instead I just let out a small sigh and smile, " Everything is fine mom..I'm just tired and these shoes really pulled a number on me today..but if I ever do have a problem..you would be the first person I would come to about it." I smile reassuringly at her and she gives me a hug.

" Well okay then sweetheart..I guess I will let you get back to your ...umm..yeah whatever you wanna call this." she points at the shoes and me and then starts laughing as she walks out the door.

** Three hours later**

Well the pile of rubber that used to be flip flops, is now in a garbage bag in the trash can. I walk into the kitchen and grab something to drink, we just had dinner and now since i am already finished with my homework and am in my pjs, I am fixing to watch some t.v. I walk to the couch and get all nice and comfy. I grab the throw blanket put it over me and settle in with the remote.

I flip through the channels until I can find something descent. Usually I just watch The Big Bang Theory or something like that, but it has done went off so here I am looking through the lists of movies.

I find one that looks descent so I curl up to watch it. The beginning is like any other movie, boy meets girl, they fall inlove and it's a love people die trying to look for..what's weird is an accident happens and the girl ends up forgetting about the boy and there love all together. So he has to try to make her remember, by doing the stuff they used to do together, to try to jog her memory. All the while, her ex is trying to get her to believe she belongs to him and to forget the other boy she actually was in love with. Weirdly as I am watching the movie, my heart starts acting funny ..like on the parts where they meet and fall for each other I feel a tug and an almost pull..and then on the part where the accident happens and she can't remember him ..I feel a pain..almost like a gut wrenching heart ache...what in the world is wrong with me???
