My Version of Romeo and Juliet

Chapter Four: A Daze

Katie's POV
I saw him. A beautiful man in my bedroom. Last night. I know what I saw. But it's not like I can tell anyone. They will think I'm crazy, just like they think my mother is. I heard my door open and then I heard her voice. " Katie breakfast is ready. I hope you slept well?" She said. Although she said it more as a question than anything else. "Mhm." I heard her gasp behind me. Then I realized what I did. I made a sound. Honestly it surprises even me. I heard the door shut after a couple of minutes and didn't know what to do. I couldn't understand what had just happened. Not the part about me making a sound. But the feeling that came with her hearing it. Saddened. I felt extremely upset. I don't know or understand why or how.

Jayden's POV

After last night she went back to sleep peacefully. Her mind almost everywhere. I decided she would be fine while I went out to eat for a while.

That morning I was sitting on the roof waiting for her to wake up. As her thoughts started up again I knew she would walk to the window like every other day. Esmeralda came in with her usual questions. "Mhm." Oh my goddess. She made a sound! She hasn't done that in eight years! I started feeling all giddy but then I felt and heard her thoughts and emotions. She was sad. Why? I guess she figured out people do hear her. I hear her. Every single day. I love the sound of her thoughts. The feeling of her emotions. She is my drug. She is my daze.
