I started at the clock blankly.
Cold sweat started to trickle down my face. 

It was only 3 in the morning and I was dead awake, shuddering. 

I thought the nightmares were gone for good. I really did.

Oh god... How was I supposed to tell my therapist? Dr.Grayson would definitely press me hard about it, asking me 'Why do you think it reappeared again,' and 'How do you feel about it'.

I felt like Shit. That's how I felt about the nightmare.

Why did it reappear again? I don't know. Maybe I have been too happy with no obstacles for too long. I knew it was too good to be true. 

I tried to close my eyes and go back to sleep, but every time I closed my eyes, the part of the nightmare started to replay in my mind. 

Kicking off the covers, I opened my laptop. Working early would get my mind off things. And I definitely needed to escape. Fast. 

The only thing I was looking forward to was dinner with Jack. It became a new routine for me, and I got comfortable around him. Mom would like him. She always wanted me to meet new people after the incident.

I shook my head. I must be really sleep deprived. Why was I thinking of introducing him to my mother? Sure I got close to him, but not enough to introduce him to my mother.

I started to wonder what would it be like to introduce him as my boyfriend to my mother, but soon shook my head again. Crap. Why was I thinking of these things?

Jack? As my boyfriend? That's just ridiculous. He wouldn't think of me in that way. I mean, who would?

I should really lay off the caffeine and visit Dr.Grayson soon.
