She took in a deep breath; she looks so worried, could it really be that bad?

“What is it mom?” she just looked around the room, “mom your scaring me, what’s wrong,”

“Ugh, I’m sorry Clara, I really should do this with your grandmother and aunties, it’s to do with them, they should be here too, just forget I said anything, it’s nothing serious we can talk about it when I get back Monday night.” So it’s nothing serious but it’s too serious for her just to tell me, something tells me she’s hiding something,

“okay, I understand” I had to just smile and act like I believed her for the time being otherwise she’ll worry her whole trip and she can’t afford to do that, I know how much this meeting means for her. Her hand raised to my face, her smile always made me feel so serine and calm

“You are a good girl Clara.” Something about her voice sounded like she was saying that to herself rather than to me

“And you’re a great mother” I smiled back; looking around at the clock it was almost midnight, wow where has the time gone. Stretching I begin to get up and I got that horrible feeling when you get up off a nice warm chair then your butt feels cold.

“Come on mum I think you should go to bed you have an early flight in the morning”

“Okay, I want you to open this on your birthday, I think it will be a nice surprise for when I’m not around” she put the present I hadn’t opened in my hand and it’s kinda heavy. Mom got up to her feet and wrapped her arms around me I cuddled back into her,

“I love you sweetie” she whispered

“I love you too mom”

“now off to bed with us, and I know I said I was going to get you drive me to the airport tomorrow morning but I want you to lay in, I’m sure you and Cassy have some planning to do” mom winked at me, ha so Cassy is right she does know about the party.

“Haha okay, well leave the dishes I’ll get em in the morning, now goodnight mama bear”

“Night bear cub, I’ll call you when I land at about 2.30 tomorrow” she called back heading towards the stairs. Lifting the remote I flecked the TV completely off. Staring at the now black screen, there was something there, it looks like a person. Squinting my eyes at the TV it really is a person; I spun round to see what the reflection is, to see if it’s mom, but no nothing.

Slowly looking around the room, the TV shot on and static covered the screen and white noise roared from the speakers.

“Ahhh” I screamed and jumped out of my skin.

What the actual fuck was that! Haha that was creepy I must have hit the button on the remote.

“Geez Clara you have got to stop psyching yourself out” I said out loud to myself, and for a second time hitting the off button.

With my heart still pounding as I made my way up to my room flicking off lights as I go. I got into my room and closed the door tight, I have never been able to sleep with a door open, and I actually find it hard to be in a room with the door open it just bugs me but I don’t know why thought.

Ah my bed, the shower may be the perfect place for thinking but bed is just amazing, it’s where I do two of my favourite things sleep and sex, if I could do the two at the same time I’d be a happy woman.

As soon as my head hit the pillow I drifted off.

*DREAM*

Standing in the door way to my house, people everywhere turning to me as I begin to walk in. The sound of music and laughter fill the air while the smell of alcohol fills my nostrils.
