All I could see was darkness. Everywhere I looked; pitch black.

 "Whats going on?" I thought to myself. I looked up and could see the moon. It was full, but when I looked back down, pitch black. How was I going to get out of here? If I look up I can see only the moon in the sky, but not where I was going. And if I looked down I see nothing. Nothing in sight. I was trapped. I felt it in the pit of my stomach. Then I heard a howl coming from right behind me! I could feel the breath on the back of my neck. I panicked! Not knowing what to do, I ran! Ran full speed ahead! Where was I going? Away from whatever was behind me, but I could hear it following me. Wherever I went, it followed. I turned around...

..I woke up in a scream.

 Must have been a nightmare! But what was it about? Was this nightmare warning me about something? Nah, probably not. Its just a nightmare, right? I should just forget about it and get ready for school. I opened my second drawer and pulled out a V-neck shirt. I then opened my bottom drawer and got a pair of skinny jeans. I layed the outfit on my bed and took a shower. Blow dried my hair and did my make-up. Got dressed. I looked better today than I did yesterday.

Thank god I didn't have to leave to school early today. School starts around 7:30 so I get to leave at least at seven.

 It was now 7:05 when I walked out the door to my truck.

 When I got to school I went to the cafeteria to get a breakfast bar, realizing I forgot to eat breakfast when my stomach started growling on the way to school. Right when I threw my trash away, the late bell rang. God! One minute to get to class, ehh I think I'm close, I should be able to make it in time. And I did. Sat down in my seat right in time. Randi was already in his seat. Guess he's the early one today and I'm the casually walk in one today. When I was walking in Randi was staring and smiling at me the whole time.

 "Hi Randi," I smiled.

 "Hey," he said awkwardly,"Umm, Giselle?"

 "Yes, Randi?" I asked.

 "I know we barely know each other, but I was wondering if you wanted to like, come over to my house today after school, or something," he asked smiling. "Maybe stay for dinner?"

 "Yeah, sure." I accepted with a smile.

 The school day went by and I was walking to my truck, when I noticed Randy leaning against my car like a bad boy again. God, he looked hot in that position. I walked up to him. "Hey Randi", I said smiling.

 "Hey. You still comin' over later tonight?", he asked anxiously for a yes.

 "Of course Randi. I wouldn't ditch you like that." I said with a giggle.

 He laughed. "Just making sure, so you want me to come by your house and pick you up later or what?"

 "Sure, that sounds good to me. Let me give you my address." I tore a piece of paper out of my notebook in my bag and wrote down all my address information I found necessary for him to find my house. "So see you later then?" I asked with a smile.

 "Yeah," he said while folding the paper up and putting it in his pocket.

 "Okay," I hugged him. He seemed surprised at first, and was just frozen. But after a few seconds he hugged me back. Putting one arm around my back and the other one around the back of my neck. I felt warm and safe in his arms. Plus, he smelled good; fresh. Smelled like a forest. It felt as if we hugged forever. Maybe we hugged for a good five minutes. That was the best hug I've ever had. I could tell he liked it too because when I let go he had the look of satisfaction on his face like he enjoyed it. Which made me blush. He brushed his hand over my cheek admiring it's redness. He laughed. Probably laughing at the fact of me blushing.I giggled.

 "Bye Randi". I said smiling with the red on my cheeks. He smiled back then got into his car and left.

 When I got home my dad was lounging on the couch watching some weird show. I think it was about monkeys. Maybe Discovery Channel or something like that.

 "Hey, how was your second day of school, Hun?" He asked with a curious smile.

 "Pretty good. My new friend Randi invited me to dinner tonight. He's gonna come pick me up later," I told him.  He raised one eyebrow at me.

 "Your second day of school and you already have a boyfriend??" He laughed.

 "Oh god, dad!" I joined in his laughter. "He's not my boyfriend just a really nice guy I met yesterday in class," I explained.

 "I'm just teasing you, sugar. I don't care if you go to some boys house," he paused. "Just as long as his parents are in the house." he said with a laugh. I love how my dad gives me some freedom and isn't all controlling over guys and friends. He's never been that way. Hopefully I get to stay late at Randi's. I mean it's a Friday night so I don't have school tomorrow. I hope his family likes me too.

 A few hours went by and there was a knock at the front door. I ran down the stairs trying to get to the door before my dad did, but my dad won that race.

 "Hello sir. I'm Randi. Is Giselle here?" Randi asked my dad in a polite structure.

 "Yes, I'm right here," I smiled. Randi couldn't help, but smile back. My dad just looked at the both of us with one eyebrow raised making it awkward.

 "Well, you better take care of my daughter", my dad told Randi with a strict look.

 "Yes sir!" Randi said in a scared tone.

 "I'm just teasing you, son!" My dad laughed.

 "Dad!" I laughed along. "Come on Randi. Let's go. I'll see you later dad. Love you." My dad did some kinda wave as in, "Okay, see ya."

 Randi and I were walking toward his car and he opened the passenger door for me. How sweet! Randi was a real gentleman. I smiled to him and said thanks as I sat in the car. He closed the door to get in the drivers seat. He then put the ket in the ignition and turned the car on and began to back out of the driveway. I couldn't help, but just look at him. He was so gorgeous with his playful black hair and ocean blue eyes. But I couldn't forget about how his eyes changed in class yesterday. How there was something I might have to figure out about him, or about myself.

 "What are you looking at?" He asked with a chuckle. I blushed, which only made him laugh more.

 "At you. Your eyes are so alluring." I smiled. Then he blushed so I laughed at him back. He smiled then looked at me with a look like he was admiring me. Then like he was reminded that he was driving and quickly turned his attention back to the road. I gave out a small giggle and he smiled. Then he turned into a driveway. I'm guessing this was his house. He lived in a beautiful two story cabin in the middle of the towns nearby forest. It was a beautiful location.
