Preston
"Preston! Help! It hurts!" Kenny's screams echo clearly from my burning house. I stand there, unable to move.
"Kenny!"
"Preston! This is your fault!" he shouts angrily. I hear him cry out, shrieking until his flesh is burnt to ash. What have I done? I burry my head in my hands.
"Preston, this is your fault. Your fault, your fault, your fault." The words haunt me.
"No, it was yours for leaving the lamp on!" I yell.
"Your fau-"
I shoot into a sitting position, bumping heads with Savannah.
"Preston?!? Are you alright? You were screaming!" she asks worriedly. We both rub our foreheads, giving one another apologetic looks.
"It was just a nightmare," I whisper, trying to convince myself of the truth.
"Oh Preston, I'm sorry you had to go through this," Savannah sighs, hugging me. I wrap my arms around her, and rest my head on her shoulder.
"Kenny was telling me it was my fault," I breathe.
"It wasn't."
"I know, but it was my house, my lamp," I counter helplessly.
"He left it on, Preston."
"I know..." I shut my eyes. "Savannah?"
"Hmm?" she murmurs.
"I'm... scared," I admit.
"Of what?"
"Of having to fall back asleep, and seeing it all over again."
"Preston, it's okay... I can sleep with you if you want," Savannah offers innocently.
"Sure," I mumble, scooching over to one side. Savannah gets under the covers next to me, and I pull her into my arms. With her head buried in my broad chest, I fall asleep once more.
