And then, BAM! His car crashed into a tree. Suddenly, my phone rang. Oh, no! Something bad happened to him!

As I was screaming and crying, I found myself at home back in Romania, in my comfortable bed. "Phew, it was just a nightmare", I said to myself relieved. I took a short shower, brushed my teeth and went to the kitchen where Steph was, too, sipping some fresh orange juice.

"When did you come? I asked."

"A few seconds ago, why were you screaming like that?"

"Nightmare.. or vision."

"Again?! I thought you were over him!"

"No, it's not about Michael. I'm over him, and you know that."

"Then who?"

"I have a really bad feeling. Something's going to happen to George, and it's no good."

"George from Union J? But.. How can you tell?"

"Well I have no idea when , but it will happen. You know that some of my nightmares and visions become true at some point.."

"You're really weird.. And scary!"

"Ha ha. Keep drinking while I make some pancakes with ice cream and chocolate syrup."

"I want some, too!"

"You'll have a few, don't worry."

And just to let you know.. First, I'm Silvia, also known as Sherri, and Stephanie (known as Steph) is my classmate, we're both near to finish school and we're quite happy that we'll go to high school, knowing that we get to go to the UK for continuing our studies. Great, right? I know. Anyway, today's the 7th of June and we're preparing for the prom. Steph came at my place so that I can help her with all the stuff needed.

"Good, let's see how I should do your makeup. Something simple, though, you want the dress to be the eye-catcher, right?"

"Of course!"

"Good, a slight touch of black should work well for both of us. Where's mom, though?"

"She said she'll be back in two hours. And Anne is coming tomorrow, she'll stay at Julie's until then."

"Okay, I understand she's 4 years older than me, but I need a bit more freedom, too!"

"I feel you, girl!"

Anyway, we spent -obviously- about 4 hours with all the party stuff and, at 5 pm, we left. The prom lasted till 2 am and it was awesome! I can't believe we have one more week together then I won't see my classmates anymore! Good thing that I'm moving at least with Steph in the UK. 

The last school week was quite nice, I can say, judging by the fact that my classmates acted surprisingly nice. I might be sad leaving behind pretty much of my life just to begin a new one but, at least, I know this is going to last forever. 

Well, that's what I'm hoping.. 

Lucky my stepbrother is famous, though. I'll get to meet lots of celebrities I've always wanted to, and this cheers me up everytime.

Basically, this is me, Silvia "Sherri" Brooks, just a normal teenager who doesn't worry about anything.. unless it's a nightmare or a vision. Who knew there could ever exist someone who predicts the future, and not talking about fiction? Definitely not me. I didn't really care about what I dreamed, until a few of my both best dreams and nightmares actually happened. Then, I started to worry. There was and still is something wrong with me, though I can't explain what's going on in my head. My mom suggested going to a psychologist, but they might think I'm crazy, so I, obviously, refused this choice. Now I have to figure myself out.
