Adalina's P.O.V

Bella gave Hayes and I her room for the night, and as soon as I lied down, exhaustion hit me like a bus.  I felt Hayes get in bed, and smiled when he pulled me into in muscular chest. And soon I was fast asleep. And then came the nightmare.

There is a white van, and it is chasing me. I try to run, but my legs move as if they are in a pull of honey. I try pumping my arms back and forth to try and gain speed, but everything I tried, made me even slower. I try to scream for help, but nothing comes out my throat but a wisp of air. "Help" I try to scream, pumping my arms harder. But nothing helps, and the van is getting closer. It stops behind me, and a masked man gets out, and he grabs me. "NO!!" I try to scream, but it doesn't work, so I kick.

Then I wake up next to Hayes. He asked if I'm ok, and I say yea, too embarrassed to tell him about the dream that I've had since my little cousin went missing. We lay down, and fall back asleep, and I push myself as close to him as physically possible, and we go back to sleep.

Luckily for me, the rest of the night is dreamless. I wake up cold, and turn to see that Hayes has left, so I get up, looking into Bella's vanity mirror, and seeing that my hair and makeup is a complete mess. I lock the door, and get to work. I take her brush and makeup wipes, and fix myself so that it doesn't look like the guy in my dreams didn't actually get me...

and have me for a while.


When I am pleased with my looks, I leave her room, and welcome the smell of pancakes and bacon.
