Mackenzie's POV:

I woke up panting, drenched in sticky, nervous sweat. I sat up, looking around for Greg, when I realized I was lying in my own vanilla colored bed with my fluffy purple comforter. I stood up, confused when I hit something small and fuzzy with my foot. When it yelped, I screamed, but then I realized it was just Maliboo, my little puppy that Miss Abby had given me for the Christmas Special episode of Dance Moms. Wait, Miss Abby! It was all a dream! I wasnt in a scary wood circled cabin! I wasn't a slave! That was such a realistic dream that I jumped for joy when I realized my freedom! I even let out a little squeal, bouncing around my bedroom. I was so excited that I accidentally hit my orange and pink lava lamp with my foot and sent it clattering to the ground, bursting open! I gasped, watching the hot gooey contents spill out! I let out a sigh of relief as the lava pooled out onto my bean bag chair instead of the floor! At least it wouldn't stain the carpet. I walked over to my desk and plucked a metal spoon from my cup holder that I had decorated with a duct tape flower. I carefully scooped as much of the hot liquid as possible into the glass lamp. As I did this, I thought about my dream, and was able to seperae the real life events from the dream. Everything was real, up until I went down to check on Maddie. Greg was still abusive, the phone call was real, but I fell asleep after Maddie had gone to get me food. That was real, and Maddie still hadn't come back......
