Brent's P.O.V

Running for dear life over the top of buildings. You know how in those Spider-Man movies how he is running and jumping from Sky scraper to Sky scraper. Well I'm doing that. Running and breathing heavily as I jump another one. I don't know why I'm running but I know I'm running from something.

I know I'm dreaming, I mean if you don't know your dreaming when your dreaming then your an idiot. It's so obvious. Everything is good, happy or super weird and not possible. Like for example, now, me running and jumping from building to building. As much as I know it's not possible it would be cool if it was.

Suddenly there's a gush I'd wind though as I'm jumping through the air. It get in the way of my jump and before I know it I'm falling. Falling, falling. These I the times that I question if my dreams are real because they feel really real. I know that I should be feeling the impact soon.

But it doesn't come. No impact, no fall, not real. Good, that's the way I like it. I sigh as I squint my eyes open expecting it be morning but it's not. It's still dark and I can see from the clock beside me that it's two in the morning. Wow, I need some sleep. I turn to see if Georgia's awake but I find that she's not there. Weird?

Sighing I sit up to look around the room. Everything's still in place, well except for Georgia of course. That's probably why I woke up, because she wasn't there anymore. But if I thought hard about it I just remembered waking up another time this night. I either did or it was a dream, probably a dream.

Sighing (again) I get up and grab a hoodie and tug that on. I walk out of the room and head downstairs to look for Georgia. She was probably just hungry and went to grab a snack but all the same I need her. Sounds desperate but it's true. I couldn't imagine life without her now. Which is why if anything happened to her I would probably end up dying on the spot.

I reach the kitchen were I expect Georgia to be to find that it's empty. She's not anywhere. I go and check all the other rooms and find she's not in there either. So this is when I panic. Well, I don't panic but it's not like I'm just taking a walk in the park anymore.

I sigh (again) as I pull my phone from my pyjama pants and text her. Georgia always has her phone on her so maybe I can find her by doing this.

where r u? xoxo

I text that through and think I've hit the jackpot when I hear a phone buzzing in the kitchen. Haha, found you! She was probably playing hide and seek, sometimes I think she's more of a child than Todd and that was hard to beat.

Running into the kitchen I'm dumbfounded to find it's still empty. But even more dumbfounded when I see her phone on the floor. Weird? With a scowl on my face I bend down and pick her phone up. The screen is cracked like it's been dropped, she must have dropped it. But why did she drop it?

I turn with her phone in my hand and sit up on the bench. I'm even more confused when I see that there's also a half eaten apple on the bench. I pick it up and toss it in my hands running things through in my head. What's going on? And where's Georgia gone?

I scowl as I chuck the apple in the bin and head to mums room. Surely she might know something or maybe Georgia's in there with her. Mum was a bad sleeper as well so maybe they just both ended up together.

My heart falls when I see mum in her bed sleeping. Alone. What the hell? Where else could she be?

"Mum!" I shake mum awake now worried. She looks at me confused at first but then she sees the fear plastered on my face.
