Just A Dream

Reality Check

It's another normal day at Holly Brook High. Students are bustling about, teachers are screaming at each other and most importantly, there was Nick Jamison. He was too perfect. And now he was walking towards me. "Oh my god! What do I do?" I turn towards Be (short for Beonca), who just happens to be my best friend in the whole world. "Just act chill and see what happens" she says. I turn back towards Nick and am entirely engulfed in his infallibility. At this point I am everything but chill. When he walks his dark hair sway just a little, his smile is sweet, rosy cheeks, and a laugh that could kill a girl. Nick Jamison was gold. Treasure. And trophy.

He keeps walking towards me. When he's about fifteen feet away he says "Alice, come here. I need to tell you something." I gape but walk slowly and as sultry as I know how. His hand reaches out towards my face and he pulls me in close. Our lips touch for the slightest second. Then I wake up.

I'm still in that forest. And this time the gray eyed boy is not playing games.
