PLEASE! PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE AUTHOR'S NOTE AT THE END! IT'S IMPORTANT!

Cain's POV

"It starts out nice, but it gets terrible. I-It felt so real..." I said before beginning to tell them about my nightmare.

~Nightmare~

(Im going to forewarn you, there will be several characters that you haven't officially met yet in "reality" that are in this dream. I just thought I'd let you know so you aren't confused about what's going on, and who some characters are, you will officially meet them later on in the story, I already have face claims and everything fully ready for when they are introduced later, for now you'll just have to imagine what they look like.)

"Cain, Abel, why don't you go out there and play with the other kids?" Carl asked.

"Ok. Sure!" I shouted happily as Abel and I got off the bed and ran down the stairs then out of the house.

I recognized all the kids that were running around playing tag. I saw Jaylen, Jordyn, and Miguel, as well as Noah and Leah, they were brother and sister. It looked like Leah was it and she was chasing her brother like mad. Everyone was laughing. Abel and I went and joined the game. After a while it started to get dark and we all decided to get inside because it looked like it was gonna rain.

"What do you wanna bet that my brother and Reagan are making out at my house?" Miguel asked as the three of us walked away from the others, his house was on the way to ours so we all walked together.

"I wouldn't be surprised if they were doing more than just making out." Abel said as he smirked over in Miguel's direction.

"Ew! Now you got me thinking about that! Gross! I'm never gonna get that image out of my head!" The boy shouted as he pushed my brother to the side slightly.

We all laughed until we reached the door of Miguel's house. It was just him and his older brother, Alejandro, that lived there, even before the world ended they had been orphans so they had only ever had each other.

"Well, you gonna open it and find out what's going on in there?" I asked as I laughed again.

"I don't know if I want to... but here goes nothing." Miguel answered as he pushed the door open.

He looked inside and immediately jumped out of the door and slammed it shut.

"So, I take it that I would have won that bet?" Abel asked as he looked down at Miguel.

"I'm never gonna unsee that... I am never going to unsee that." Miguel muttered as he leaned against the door and slid down it, putting his face in his hands as he sat on the ground.

"Good luck with that." Abel said as he pat the boy's shoulder before turning and walking towards our house.

I followed him and we walked in the house right as the rain started coming down. It was absolute downpour.

"That was close, hopefully Miguel was able to get in his house." I said as we walked up the stairs and sat on the bed.

"Where are Carl and Ethan?" He asked suddenly.
