The Mythicals

8.Dream

I'm at the creek again but this time it's dark except for the light of the moon. There are no animals in sight and I can't hear them either. It's eerily silent and I have a bad feeling.

I step into the meadow again and I'm scared. There are about 10 men on the opposite side and they look very dangerous. They started to step towards me and so I turned and ran through the trees as fast as I could. I could hear them following so I turned back to see where they were. I didn't see any one so I slowed down to find a quick hiding place.

I came around a tree and ran into someone. I tried to scream but he placed a hand over my mouth and pushed me into a tree. It hurt my back.

"Hello my Princess." Damian!

Again I tried to scream but it was muffled by his hand. I struggled to try to free myself but all it resulted in was him throwing me to the ground. My head it a rock and I almost passed out. This allowed Damian to turn me over and tie my hands behind my back.

"It pains me to restrain you but apparently you won't come willingly." He said picking me up roughly.

"Annaliese? Where are you?"

"Baylee run!"

"AAAHHHHH!!"

"BAYLEE!"

________________________________

I woke screaming and tears streaming down my face.

Five guards burst into my room. Alex and Xander teleported in with worried expressions. Father and Cody ran in after the guards. Everyone staring at me.

Xander was the first one to me and he wrapped me in his arms.

"What happened Liese?"

"I'm really sorry I woke ya'll. It was just a nightmare go back to bed."

"Are you sure you're alright Honey?"

"Yes Father."

"Alright dad I'm gonna check on Baylee. You get some rest."

They all left except Xander who was still holding me.

"Will you stay with me? I'm afraid to go back to sleep by myself."

"Of course Princess. I would do anything for you."

"Thank you Xander."

Xander climbed under the covers with me and I curled up on his chest. I feel safe now. Demon even came and laid against my back.

I laid there awake for awhile. Xander was still awake with me but I finally started to drift off and I thought I heard Xander tell me he loves me but I don't know.

____________________________________________________

I woke the next morning to see that Xander was snoring and so therefore he was still asleep. Demon was up and chewing on his chew toy. When he saw that I was awake he ran to the bed and kept trying to get on it. I laughed and he started to whine so I quickly scooped him up before he woke Xander.

Xander groaned and rolled over. He fell off the bed with a thud. I laughed so hard that my sides started hurting.

"Ha ha very funny. You know I wouldn't have been on the edge if someone wasn't a bed hog."

"I am not! You're just embarrassed and don't wanna admit it."

"Oh whatever!"

He tackled me and tried to tickle my sides but fortunately I ain't ticklish there. I win!

"Oh yea I forgot. But I do remember that your feet are very ticklish."

"You wouldn't dare."

He dared. I'm gonna kill him but right now I can't breathe from laughing too much.

"Alright alright stop I can't breathe!" I said through my laughter.

He stopped and leaned his whole body over mine. "Only if you kiss me."

And he leaned down and kissed me. It was a little bit rougher than the other two but I didn't care . He laid his body down on top of me but not all of his weight otherwise he'd crush me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer. He deepened the kiss and I felt his tongue on my bottom lip asking for entrance so I let him in.

"EW!! That's gross Annaliese!! DADDY! ANNALIESE IS KISSING A BOY!"

I heard a bunch of laughter and I blushed a lot.

"Come on time for breakfast and then you have training."

"I don't know if I can leave this room for a few days."

"Come one I'll hold your hand if you're scared."

"Nope besides I ain't hungry." Right then my stomach growled loudly. I should've known my own stomach would betray me.

Xander laughed "There's bacon."

"Bacon?? Heck yea time for breakfast! Come on Demon!"

I rushed out of the room to breakfast with Demon and Xander close behind still laughing.
