"I'd better get home." Georgie said as he finished his cookie.

"Okay well I guess I'll see you at school tomorrow then." I replied and shoved my hands in the pockets of my jeans.

He gave me a wave and walked out my door. I opened the pasta cupboard, and grabbed a package of kraft dinner to cook for my supper.

I turned my head towards the door as Tanya and my dad came in.

"Hey." They said at the same time.

"Hey." I replied while putting water into the pot.

"Whatcha making?" My dad asked.

"Just some kraft dinner." I made eye contact with only the pot.

After dinner I ran right into my room. My eyes fell on the materiel of my red suitcase. I put my face in my hands as I plopped myself down on the bed.

Around 10:00pm, I changed into my pyjamas and turned my light off to go to sleep. I let a single tear run down my face and onto my mattress.

I was still sitting in my bed. I felt a wave of comfort wash over me, and I realized I was underwater when I looked out the window. All the fish were swimming in giant schools, close to the glass of the window. I felt a grin come across my features. I looked around the room for Sammy, because I wanted to show her all the fish near the window.

I couldn't find her anywhere.

"SAMMY!" I called out, expecting a fish to respond. When I turned to face the bedroom window, a great white shark slammed through the think frail glass. Water splashed onto everything, and flooded my room. I swam over to the bedroom door, and tried to open it. The water filled up everything, and the shark starting yelling.

"WAKE UP MARIE! WAKE UP YOU'RE HAVING A BAD DREAM!"

My eyes shot open and I saw my father beside my bed.

"Nightmares again?" My dad asked.

I tried to slow down my breathing as I realized that my room was dry, and Sammy was where she always was.

"Yeah. One of the worst nightmares ever." I replied, stumbling on my words to try to catch my breath.

"Go back to sleep." My dad said and left the room.
