¬£¬ Bad Memories¬£¬   part 2 

I heard someone calling my name. When I opened my eyes, I was back in my room, my dad sitting next to me with a concerned look on his face.

“You okay?” he asked brushing my hair from my face.

“I’m fine just a bad dream.” I replied wiping the sweat from my face as I sat up. Although I was calm, my hear was still racing. This wouldn't be the first time I've had this dream.

“Okay. I heard you screaming thought someone was trying to break in.” I could see the worry still in his eyes; but the tension was gone from his shoulders.

“I’m fine now.” I said with a slight smile. 

“Okay.” He hugged me tight as if he was afraid I'd dissapear, then kissed my forehead and left. I looked at my clock and it read 3:27 a.m. I let out a heavy sigh as I tried going back to sleep, but sleep would never find me. I closed my eyes only to open them back up from the sound of my phone vibrating on my night table. I grabbed it as I sat back up in the bed, looked at it, and it was a text from Kelly: 

        Are you up?

I looked over at the clock once more debating if I should reply or not. Seeing as how I wasn't going back to sleep anytime soon, I decided to take my chances and reply. The worst would be he was asleep. 

        Now I am,

I sat my phone on the bed before going to my bathroom to splash cold water on my face to rid myself of the memories. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and tried to find that girl from the dreams. The one that was always scared to speak and too frieghtened to fight back. However, all I could find was the mask I hidmyself behind. No sign of anyone, not even the real me. I turned away from the mirror not wanting to look at myself much longer and headed back to my room. I grabbed my phone out of habbit and saw that he was actually up and replied. 

        Are you ok?

        Yea just had a bad dream that’s all, now I can’t go back to sleep.

I grabbed my small through blanket that was folded at the foot of my bed and went to my window. I cleared a small spot on my desk and sat close to the windowsill. Whenever I couldn't sleep, I would always look at the stars, it helped clear my mind and sooth my worries.

        I was just checkin on you. Felt like something was wrong.

        Want me to sing to you?

        Lol no thank you I am good. What are you doing up anyway? 

        can’t sleep

        why not

        idk I just can’t seem to go to sleep

        Oh so where are you

        outside on the front looking at the stars

        same here except I’m in my room looking out the window

        oh cool. so you ready for later on today

        yeah. My dad is taking me shopping before we go to the movies

       oh okay, cool. Well now that I’ve talked to you and know you’re alright I’m bout to go to sleep.

        alright. Sweet dreams. I think i'm going to be up for a little while longer.

        alright see you later beautiful ;)

        see you later (:

I turned my phone off and sat by the window for a few more minutes just staring out the window. I finally began getting tired so I went and laid back down on my bed. I still couldn't go to sleep, so I turned on the TV and just watched what was on until my eyelids felt heavy.
