Dreaming???

Book 1 of 2

                           Dreaming ???

I can't get down and the light is fading fast. The water of the river is rising higher and higher every minute and I can't get down. Suddenly the world went dark.

I awoke with a start. Mum was shouting me to breakfast. "Lexie! Come down its breakfast! ". Quietly running downstairs, I thought about what had happened the previous night. The tower, the apocalyptic sky, the flood.
"Quick Lexie, or I'm gonna eat your pancakes",
"Charlie!" I shouted to my sister
"Don't shout at your sister." said Mum. In my head all I could see was the hours I wasted in my dream, as if I was there for years, like I've seen that place before. Everyday it's the same. Then I sat down at the table and ate my pancakes.

I caught the bus to school and yet again the bus was so loud and trying to listen to music is very hard when everyone is flicking paper and other disgusting things at you, but when we finally got to school I had half an hour to spare, I went to the library to say hello to my favourite teacher, Miss Dapen. We talk about my recurring dream, the one about the tower and the natural disasters.

"Hi Miss."
"Hello Lexie" Miss Dapen said "Are you looking for a book or are you just here to talk about your dreams again"
"A little bit of both" I said with a smile then my best friend came.
"Hi Lex!"
"Hey Em" (We had these nicknames since preschool )
"So are you two going to get to class as you only have 10 minutes" said Miss Dapen
"Oh yeah" I whispered "Let's go Em. Bye Miss." And we left to go to form.

I like my form tutor too, Mr Tappon. He is really funny and the best form tutor anyone could ask for. After form we had science with Mr Foyet . Then English with Miss Dapen and then break. Before I knew it I was on the bus again going home.

I sat at my desk in my bedroom and started the homework set in Spanish. I had a test in a week so I had to revise even if I do fall asleep halfway through.

The next thing I knew I was back in the tower. It was hot and I soon knew what was happened. The smoke got to my throat soon enough. Ripping my tonsils to shreds. I needed to find a way to get out. Then I saw it. The figure. Who was it? Then three more appeared. My family. The other three were Mum, Dad and Charlie then the stranger whipped out of their pocket, an hourglass?

Then as if by magic the smoke from the fire below me whipped up my parents and shrunk them and put them in the hourglass. Suffocating them in the sand. I couldn't wake up. What if this wasn't a dream? What if I do wake up and my family are gone? There are too many questions to ask.

I woke up and a chill slithered down my spine like a snake I hurried downstairs no one was there. I looked outside the car was there but no one was in it. I went upstairs only to see Charlie lying there, fast asleep. I checked on Mum and Dad they're fine. What did that dream even mean? It doesn't make any sense...

Then next day ran the same, library, form, lessons, break, more lessons, lunch, one more lesson and then home time. (God bless home time- thedoctoratehermione 2016) I love Fridays because it's our student book club where it is just nice for making friends and just reading in a lovely quiet environment. Today was an extra special day for the book club as today we were going to London to see Hamlet. Once we got on the coach to head to London I fell asleep again...

I saw it again. The figure. But today it was different. I saw it as clear as a mirror. In fact it may well have been. It can't have been!

Look out for my next book- Reality???, here is a bit of it:

I screamed at the top of my lungs until a black foggy mist crossed my eyes and I fell to the floor. I awoke with bright lights surrounding me and strangers looking over me. It smelt clean in this place and then I felt the pain. A needle! I pulled away and the pain went. I was in hospital and I must've blacked out. For how long? What even happened? I remembered the dream and nothing much else. Did I escape the nightmare? Did I ever make it to London with Miss Dapen?

This was my first story on Wattpad and I know. THR CRINGE IS REAL! But I kinda don't wanna edit it (Same goes for 'Reality???')  just because I wanna compare my work so see my progress.

Anyway I changed the cover as you might've noticed that cover is made by thedoctoratehermione
