Birthday Wish

B.W. Ch 7

Ch 7

We ate dinner, talking nonsense. Almost everything Tom told me, about his hobbies and favorites, I knew. I never told him that though, god would I sound like a stalker or what? Anyway, we finished dinner and walked outside. I checked my phone and it said,"8:30."

"Today was really great Tom. It was the best day ever....thank you so much for this..." I breathed. Tom smiled and chuckled, smoothing his thumb across my cheek.

"I'm glad you enjoyed it. I have some things to take care of tomorrow, so I'll see you Saturday?," He asked me. I smiled at him and nodded.

"Yeah, Saturday works. I'm gonna go see my friend tomorrow that goes to college here so it works out perfectly," I said to him.

"Perfect," He said, smiling. He put his hands on my cheeks and kissed me again, slowly and sweetly. I closed my eyes, savoring his taste over and over again. We broke apart, catching our breaths and looking into each others eyes.

"Saturday, alright?" He said. I smiled at him.

"Yeah, Saturday," And with that we kissed again for a short time and went our separate ways.

I walked back to my hotel, grinning like a goof, while feeling my swollen lips. I walked into my hotel room and flopped down on to the bed, grinning. God, my life was really taking an unexpected turn. I heard my phone buzz and checked to see who texted me. I smiled and blushed at the text.

tom 💕: Good night beautiful❤

me: good night tom 💕

I shut off my phone and laughed as I thought how all this seems so funny, yet it's real. I got into bed and closed my eyes, thinking how I'm gonna say this to Sarah and Mikki.

(the next morning)

I woke up, sweat cascading down my face. I have nightmares often. It's not an unusual thing, but last night's were the usual...insults coming back and the stress of everything coming down on you like boulders. My head started spinning and hurting when I tried to recall what my dreams were.

(dream)

"God, are you STUPID?! That wasn't right!" Ella yelled. I just stood there; She was like this all the time. I don't even know if I could be her friend anymore. She used to be nice, but she's changed. I don't know what happened, but something did and now she was treating me like I'm nothing. Again, I just sighed and brushed it off.

"Whatever. Let's go"

The image changed. Now, I was in pre-school, this girl towering over me like a skyscraper.

"Don't TELL ON ME AGAIN!" She yelled, as she pushed me down on the concrete. The teachers didn't notice as usual; they were just helping other kids, not looking this way. I had to tell on her, she wasn't doing what she was supposed to be doing. I got up off the ground, brushing off my arms and legs, walking away. I turned around and saw her still glowering at me. I quickly turned my head, walking towards the art table.

The image changed again. It was a blurry image so I couldn't tell. But someone had either slapped me or something but it was painful.

(dream ends)

I rubbed my forehead to sooty the pain as I checked my phone for new messages. I had 15 new messages from...oh surprise surprise...Sarah AND Mikki. 8 from Sarah and 7 from Mikki.
