I Was Adopted By A Green Haired Goofball

Friend or Foe?

I remember lying in an uncomfortable bed, with a bad headache, i felt the stickiness of band- aids here and there. I looked over to my left. I saw a girl, i rubbed my head, then i went over to the girl and asked her where i was, she said that we were in an orphanage. she asked me what my name was, Scarlet Wildling" i said. she said her name was Harley Millar. I suddenly heard voice, it was on a loud speaker. "There will be a new girl staying in Scarlet's and Harley's room" it was a sharp, cold, almost evil female voice. After the voice stopped talking. Harley said, "We just got here and got situated and theres already another person joining? Wow that wasn't much time at all" She sat back down on her bed. "Heh yeah" i replied. The girl had a sorta puzzled look on her face, i shook it off and decided to get some sleep. As i drifted off to sleep, i dreamed that i had died from being shot, and it only got worse from there. I woke up violently beads of sweat dripped down my face. The girl i met earlier was asleep, i thought that I made a lot of noise when I woke up, but "Maybe she's just a heavy sleeper" I thought to myself. I got up and looked around the room, I found a window about the size of a small desk, the window had some sorta fencing over it, so i couldnt see to well, it was pitch black outside. i assumed that it was nightime and went back to bed. I couldn't sleep, all I could do was toss and turn. Everytime I closed my eyes, the nightmare came back, I decided to pull an all-nighter. I never got much sleep anyways. The girl beside me stirred, and I jumped in my bed and pretended to be asleep.

"I know your awake Scarlet"

     "Nooo"

"Yeeessss"

"Uh-uh"

"Mm-hm"

"Finnne, you got me" I slowly got up and sat down on my bed, she did the same, "Cant sleep?" She asked. "Ya, I keep having nightmares" I explained what happened and we started talking, I got to know alot about her, and she got to know about me. I was really happy when I eventually went to bed. "I have a friend!:)" I excitedly said to myself. After that I started counting sheep and drifted off to sleep.
