     Nothing in my dream was clear...
     In front of me was our school. It was hazy, engulfed in an orange light. Someone comes running out of the building and I ask them a question.      For some reason, I don't like their answer and this propels me towards the glowing building. I can hear people shouting at me but I ignore them and continue towards the light...
     It's the light that wakes me up.
     Sunlight pours in from my window, birds chirp, and I can smell bacon cooking!
I drag myself out of bed and investigate the delicious smell further. I investigate it so well, that it ends up in my stomach. Then, I begin my lazy day.
     I call Oliver over so that we can run lines for the play on the last day of school, this Thursday. We're both extremely excited.
     By the end of the day, Oliver has to dance around piles of chip bags, stacks of dirty dishes, and the occasional pop can to reach the front door. He gives me a kiss goodbye and leaves me with a disaster to clean up all by myself...
     Great.
     By the time I finish cleaning, it's 10:00pm and I'm exhausted. I brush my teeth, throw on my Mickey Mouse pjs, and hop into bed.
     And then I dream, again.
     I grow more and more confused. There's always an orange light, but what causes it?
     This cycles through for two more days, confusing me further, until it's Wednesday morning. The day before the play.
     As I'm walking up to my school, I see an ominous orange glow. I recognize it immediately as the one from my dream, except now I can make out what causes the light.
     Flames.

     Another short chapter?!
     Yes. I'm sorry. I have a habit of making these really late. Comment if you would rather a short chapter every night, or a long one every other night. It would be a lot less stressful for me once one of these is picked.
     Thank you!🤗
     P.S. Don't forget to keep an eye out for my next book, Aries.
