I'm in my house. Why am I here, wasn't I at the guys?

I walk into the kitchen looking for food, but immediately stop when I see a dark shadow coming towards me. I back away as subtly as I can trying not to attract attention, which seems pretty pointless considering I am walking away from a creepy dark shadow that is following me. Okay,maybe I should run.

I sprint down the hall as fast as my little legs will take me, I probably look like a potato running from the grater. What the hell is wrong with my brain, potatoes don't run. THEY DONT EVEN HAVE LEGS.

Pointless. I belong in a mental asylum I know...

I stop running and use the wall for support to catch my breath. Something hits the wall right next to me. Glass shatters around me.

I scream and step back the guy stands in front of me, it's Dad...

I try to run away again but he grabs my arm, his finger nails are doffing into my skin causing it to bleed. Oh no, please not again, I'll do anything. I'll clean my room, I'll start to worship god, anything.

He slaps me across the face,hard. I drop to the ground, he kicks my stomach causing me to scream.

"STOP!! PLEASE STOP!! HELP ME SOMEONE!!"

He continues to kick me while I lie there, not fighting back. Numb.

"Wake up Samantha" I hear in the distance.

I scream and sit up in my bed. I start to cry as I remember that horrible dream. Now he haunts my dreams, great. Arms wrap around me.

"Shhhh it's ok, it was jus a nightmare, he's not here. Your safe" James's says in a soothing voice.

Once I gain control of my Niagara Falls that's running out of my eyes. Australia now has it own Niagara Falls. I look around the room seeing all of the gang in the room. Everyone showing concerned but is afraid to speak. Afraid that if they say something I might breakdown, they think I'm fragile. Broken, is what I am not fragile.

I clear my throat and try to gain courage to speak.
"I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you" I stutter out. I look down to my lap with my hair covering my tear-stained splotchy face.

Fingers lift my chin up and I'm met with a mop of blonde hair and hazel eyes. Isaacs arms wrap around me.

"It's ok, we were up anyway." He says in a soft tone.

"What time is it?" I ask groggily.

"9am" Nathan says as he comes up and gives me a hug. A flash of lightning peeks through the window causing me to squeal and dig my head into Nathan's shoulder.
"Are you scared?" Nathan whispers.
I nod, "yes very,vi hate thunder storms and snakes, or anything that doesn't have feet" I say.
"What about an amputee" Jordan says in a snicker. I look up and glare at him, but fail and end up laughing.
"I mean insects or animals, like slugs even the thought of slugs make me shiver." I say as I shiver. Slugs are just gross, like snails are fine but slugs are like naked snails. And snakes really need to grow legs, snakes are like leg less lizards. I shiver at that thought.

I get up from the bed with wobbly legs.
"I need to peeeeeeeeeeeeee" I groan. Everyone starts to laugh at me. De ja vú much. I give them my best death glare which makes them laugh harder, I swear Isaac is crying with happy tears.
