"What do you want from me?" I ask again. He is just staring down at his shoes.

"I don't want anything from you. What do you want from me?" He asks me but still not looking up at me. I don't want anything from him! I don't even know him. Why was he here. What did my dream mean? I have so many questions. But no one to answer them, or did I?

"I don't even know you. Why would I want anything from you?" I ask taking a step closer to him. His eyes shoot up to meet mine. I walk past him and curled up in the corner of my bench leaving enough room for him to sit down next to me.

After he sits down he says. "I'm sorry bout what my dad did. He's crazy but he has never done anything like this before. He always has an alterior motive, he will never tell me anything tho. He always says "should've been a girl" He treats me like I'm his maid and not his son." He is still looking down at his fiddling hands. I don't know why but I put my hand on his and he looks at me.

"I'm sorry your father treats you like that. I'm sure he loves you as his son. I can see it in his eyes when he talks bout you. He loves you and would do anything for you. And as for me, I don't know you but i'm sure you are a very good person and not really all crazy like him" then something hit me, "Whats his name?"

Without even thinking he responds "Howard, my dad's name is Howard. I wish he wasn't my father. He is a crazy, physco but what can I do bout it. You can't choose your family." He says in a sad tone.

I am trying to be nice this is my only chance at getting a friend and if I blow this i'm never going 2 hear the end of it from Howard. " But you can choose who is in your life." I tell him, I still have my hand on his. He sighs and turns his hand over actually holding mine now. It felt so nice to have contact with a person again.

"You're like no other person I have meet before. But I can't tell whats so different about you." He states while he looks into my eyes. I feel like he is seeing the me that I used to be and not the one who has survived the unthinkable.

"Maybe it's because you've never meet someone trapped in an iron cage that can live through a single night." I smile at my joke.

He laughs "Still have your sense of humor." our eyes haven't broken apart,

I laugh and gesture around, "That's all I have left. If you can't tell" I joke around. He rolls his eyes in amusement. We just talked and talked forever then we hear footsteps coming closer. He looked at me, winked then went through the door and sat in the chair Howard usually sat in.

"Well looks like I am missing a party" Howard comes into veiw with a tray full of meat. I jump up and go over to the tray and start eating. After they leave I go back to sleep with a smile on my face. But it didn't stay that way for long.

My dream starts off where the last one ended

I am looking in the face of the man who stabbed me because he loves me. I don't understand whats going on. Then all of a sudden I can breath and I don't feel pain anymore. I look down at the dagger that is no longer there, it is on the ground covered in purple blood.

"I knew it!" He says. I am so confused. Whats going on?

"Knew what?" My voice was different, lighter, sweeter. I look down at myself and I am no longer wearing that blue and yellow dress I am wearing a long white flowing dress. and I was levitating off the ground making my height the same as the man in front of me.

"Your an angel!" He kisses me but i push him away with a hard shove to the chest.

"You think you can have lunch with me, kill me, then kiss me again and everything is fine and dandy?!!" I yell at him. The wind starts to blow and he looks terrified now. I am starting to see shadows everywhere, he screams and starts to run away. How dare he run from me! I start to go after him but the wind picks him up and brings him back for me.

"No, I am not an angel you moron. I am a daughter of an angel which means I am a spirit user. I have tryed to tell you but you never listen so now you are going to sit down on the blanket and I will explain. But if you try to run again then you will never see the world again." I threaten. He just nods his head, he looks like he is about to start crying.

I jump up outta bed No No not again! This isn't happening again. Please no! The next couple of weeks were the same Johnny was with me all day. Howard brought me food. I had on going dreams never new ones. What was going to happen to me?
