What's Wrong With Me

Star: Just a Dream

I jerked up from my bed. I was breathing heavily with sweat pouring down my face. As my breathing started to steady I looked around. I was in my bedroom at Tom's. I guess I never really went on the trip after all. Everything was just a dream. I can't believe that I actually fell asleep before leaving, but it does sound like something I would do. I'm glad I never actually went out now that I know I would regret it. Now everything makes sense though. I would never actually go back in that cave! Also, that creepy voice was way to fake, I should have noticed it before. I wonder what time it is? I looked down at my clock. It was 5:48. Wow, I slept through the whole day! I probably won't be able to sleep much tonight after that super long nap. 

I got up from my bed and then left my room to go check on Tom. I walked around the house in search of Tom. I ended up finding him just sitting on the couch watching TV. "Well Goodmorning sleepy head!" Tom said with a happy smirk. "I was waiting for you to wake up before I started to make dinner. What do you want?"

"I'm not that hungry so something small, but it can be whatever you want." I replied.

"Is something wrong?" Tom asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, usually you're always hungry." Tom said with a playful chuckle.

I didn't respond but instead just looked at the floor. I didn't really know what to tell him even if it was just a dream. I still feel like just the thought of going behind his back and leaving was wrong. Tom saw the look on my face and stood up. "I'm sorry I didn't mean that in a mean way." He said as walking over toward me. "No, it wasn't what you said. I just have a lot going through my head right now."

"Well, I do whatever it is to help you out. If you don't want to talk about it now that's fine, just remember I'm here for you." Tom said as he pulled me in for a hug.

"Thanks, Tom that really means a lot."

"How about I make a pizza and then we watch a few movies?"

"Sounds great."

Tom's comforting made all of the bad thoughts go away and my mind was cleared. After two pieces of pizza and half of a movie, I started feeling a little sleepy. Without knowing I had fallen asleep on Tom's shoulder.
