I stare down into the mirror.My reflection stares back with cold black eyes. My eyes are bright blue... My reflection is a scaring beauty with cold black eyes. My reflection is giving me the jitters. I kick the mirror, and the shards fall to the floor. I look down and a hand wraps around my ankle. My heart begins to race, I use the other foot to crush the hand wrapped around my ankle. A screech comes from behind me and the hand disappears.

I begin to run and I feel something claw at my rib cage. I scream in pain, heated tears rush down my face. Something pulls at my long blonde hair, then a strong arm wraps around me. Then I feel a males body pressed against the back of mine. Then a soft but rough voice brushes my ear.
"Be quiet, don't speak, I mean it!" Says the male figure.

The voice sends cold chills down my spine. I bite the males arm and turn around quickly. The face I see stuns me. His face looks so gorgeous. Then I come back to reality and punch him in the stomach and run. His leg goes under me and I trip. He towers over me. A rope goes around my ankles. My feet are tied together. Then he pulls my hands behind my back, then he ties them together. His hands brush against my hips and make there way to my waist, he pulls me up by the waist. He carries me to wherever he plans on taking me. His touch makes me some type of nervous. Then all of the sudden everything goes blank. I sit up and my eyes are open. I touch my face, looking around sweating. It... was just a dream. There's no gorgeous man, no weird reflection of me, okay that's amazing in my eyes. I wouldn't ask for any of that, even that gorgeous man to abduct me. Gosh he was gorgeous, but I don't want anything from that dream. No, i'd hate that being the way it ended for me. I believe my ending will be more superior than that actually...

Gosh those things in that dream were scary. I'm sweating and I smell awful. I think I should shower and cool down my twenty-two year old brain. I wipe my face and stand from my sitting position on my bed. I go shower for about twenty minutes, then I get dressed to hear a knock at my apartment door. I go answer it, and there stands the gorgeous man from my dream. I almost scream, but I swallow it. I look at him and give him a stern look.

"What do you want?" I say almost losing it.

"I'm your new neighbor, I'm Allen." Says the man.

"I'm Lorine, but my friends call me bubble gum." I say. "You, however cannot call me that."

"I'm sorry, but have I done anything to annoy, upset, or make you despise me?"

I swallow down embarrassment and look at him almost smiling. He smiles and oh my gosh he could almost make a girl melt in his arms.

"No, no you haven't, um... Allen, right?" I say.

"Okay, I felt some tension that was unwanted from you, or anyone." Says Allen.

"I'm sorry I just woke up from the worst dream ever and my day is going to be bad, I can tell." I say.
"It's okay, I completely understand." Says Allen.

"Well, I've gotta get ready to go to work... so maybe we can talk later?" I say.

"Yeah, of coarse." Says Allen. "Maybe we can go on a lunch date or something."

"Well... nice meeting you Allen. Goodbye." I say, shutting the door.

I wipe my brow and look at my room. That guy was giving me the creeps. I DO NOT like the idea that I saw that man and he's magically my neighbor. I think that's kind of strange, maybe this dream was a warning. Maybe I should be more cautious of this man. I study my room then I shrug off the jitters he left me with. I get my car keys and drive to work. I still have a funny feeling about that Allen guy. He's really creepy, how the heck did I see him in my dream? This is really weird whatever is going on. I look at my job just a little ahead. and wipe my face. I bite my lip wondering what this means. Whatever it is I need to find out. I arrive at work and my boss is standing at the door.
