I'm walking home from Dominic's house since he lives down the street from me when suddenly I hear footsteps walking behind me.
"Did I forget something, Dominic?" I ask, not even turning around.
"Who the hell is Dominic?" I freeze, it can't be. Please god don't let it be him. I turn around and sure enough it's him. Samuel Moon, black hair and blue eyes.
"W-what are you doing here?" I ask weakly. He laughs at my weakness.
"I'm back Belle. I'm free."
"NO NO NO! They made a mistake you can't be, this can't be happening. Things were just starting to go back to normal."
"I thought you'd be happier that I am back." He pouts.
"This is just a dream it will all be over soon." I tell myself hoping he'll go away.
"Even if this is a dream, that still shows just how weak you are against me Belle. You can't get me out of your head."
"Go away, I don't want you in my life anymore."
"Fine, just know I warned you Belle. I'm coming back..."
I wake up sweating and crying. "He's not coming back, it was just a dream." I tell myself, trying to calm down. My phone dings and I check it.
Dominic: Hey Anna, want to come over for a little bit? We can watch a movie you choose!
Anna: Sure, be over in a few minutes. :)
I run down stairs and grab my bag real quick and keys.
"I'm going to head to Dominic's house!" I yell to my parents.
"Okay, say hi to his mother for me!" my mom called back to me. It's been a few weeks, Dominic and I are now really close and our parents are really good friends too. It helps that he lives down the street from us. I get into my car and drive down the street to his house/my old house. I pull in the driveway and he is standing outside already waiting for me. When I get out of my car I walk up and give him a hug. We walk inside and go to the kitchen where he grabs the popcorn.
"My mom said hi!" I tell his mother who is sitting at the kitchen table.
"Thank you Anna!" she says to me. We get into Dominic's room and he lets me choose a movie. Then we both hop on his bed as the movie starts.
"What movie did you pick? He asks me
"You'll have to wait and see." I tease him
"Ughhhh" is all he says. I laugh as the movie starts. "If I Stay? Really?" he asks
"If you don't like it why do you own it?" I ask him
"I never said I don't like it, I just didn't think you would choose this one."
"Well, let's see if I can get through a movie with you without crying about my sister." I say to him laughing. I'm really glad he texted when he did, I need this distraction.
"You won't make it through, you're too weak." I hear Samuel's voice in the back of my head. Please no, just leave me alone. I'm with Dominic, please don't make me cry right now.
"Anna are you okay? We're not even 5 minutes into the movie and you're already crying. Are you really that much of a sucker for chick-flicks?" is that supposed to mean I'm too weak to handle the movie? No,no,no, please tears go away. It was no use, I was absolutely balling now.
"I should probably go home now. I'm sorry. I probably shouldn't have came, I thought this would get my mind off the nightmares but I can't focus." I say getting up off his bed, still crying.
