Chapter 6

My eyes flung open but I remained where I was on my bed. Why had that dream changed. I was used to it now so why did it have to change. Come to think of it, it’s changed since that new guy turned up. Could he have something to do with it? I leant  to my side in order to reach my phone, I checked my screen 10:17am – 1missed call – 3 new messages. I pulled down the notification tab on my samsung and saw what I already knew 1 missed call, 2 messages from Blue and one unknown number. I clicked on the unknown number to read what it said I’ve seen what you saw last night. Don’t forget. Noon. Grazing fields. Alone.

What the hell. How did he get my number. Fricking Stalker.

I was about to throw my phone on my bed when I realized that I hadn’t read Blue’s messages. I clicked them open. Message 1, 8:12 am where are you? You up yet? Message 2, 9:46am You up yard yet? I’m on my way. Call me. I sighed at her persistence and hit the dial button …

Ring… Ring…

Pick up the phone Blue…

Ring… Ring…

You have reached the O2 voicemail for 07..

I hung up before it managed to finish. ‘Ring me Kyra’, Sure Blue but fricking pick up!

I debated whether to get up or not and was greeted by a violent vibration on my bed, I looked up to see my phone flashing incoming call – Blue. So now you want to talk. geez.

I slid the unlock symbol to answer the call…

“Hey chick chick” she squealed down the phone

“hi… why so happy and hyper?”

“well I think I need to be seen as my mother has volunteered me to show the stranger around the yard today”

“hahaha have fun with that B” I teased her as she continued

“Shut up Kyra, I’m annoyed with the fact that he specifically asked for me despite our first little meet up”

“oooooo Blue’s got a secret admirer” I continued to wind her up “ anyway what was with all the texts?”

“I was going to wonder if you wanted to join me on showing him around”

“I’m still at home Blue and I’m busy today” I wasn’t going to tell her about the stranger wanting to meet up. Obviously he wouldn’t have told me to go alone if he wanted her to know so I kept it to myself.

“Damn it” I laughed at her outburst

“Take Ace with you?” I suggested in order to help her out

“That’s an idea, thanks Ky”

“Right well I got to go now Blue” I tried to end the conversation as I needed to work out what I was going to do about the stranger

“Yeah yeah sure not a problem, see ya later!!” with that I hung up and placed my phone on my bed next to me.

I thought It best that I actually get up and get ready, I threw myself off the bed only to stand on something causing me to lose my balance, I sat on the edge of the bed and gave the item evil glares until I noticed it looked very familiar. I leant down and hooked my fingers through the leather strap it was attached to. I placed the main piece in the centre of my palm and studied it.

A medium sized paw print was attached to a leather strap, upon looking at the paw print in closer detail I noticed tiny symbols were etched into the wood it was made of, I turned it over in my hands to see a white eye like symbol had been painted in the centre of the pad. I thought It was an unusual design but liked it all the same. It the dawned on me that I had seen this somewhere before. Last night in my dream. I acknowledge the fact and continued to place around my neck once again.
