Seamus's P.O.V.

"Seamus Matthews turn down that loud music! It's 11:00 at night and your sister is trying to sleep" mom yelled from the other room. She isn't a baby mom. Charlotte is 11, not 2 I thought. A large truck drove down the road. A U-Haul truck? It was rare for people to move into this part of town.

"Sorry mom!" I called. It was better to apologize than risk getting in bigger trouble. Then a girl walked out of a navy blue van. She was holding three boxes, with the words "Ally's Stuff" scrawled over it. My music was loud enough that she could hear, so she looked in his bedroom windows direction. She smiled up at me, and I waved and blushed in return. Then the song swore. I'm not oh fucking kay. She looked back up and frowned, looking down at her shoes. Shit Seamus, don't ruin it already. Once the girl went inside, I heard a knock from the window directly near my bed. I looked over and saw the girl smiling. I went to open the window.

"Hi there, I'm Ally. I assume your Seamus, according to the poster behind you" I smiled. The poster read Leave me alone, it's Seamus thinking time. I usually had that outside the door, but today was a reasonably good day.

"Hi Ally. Yeah, my name is Seamus. How old are you? I'm wondering if we are in the same grade or not."

"I am 14, turning 15 in December. So a freshmen in high school." I smiled

"I am 15 already, I missed the age cutoff. But we are in the same grade. Lets hope for same classes too" I laughed. She had to go to bed, so I said goodnight to her and all that crap.

"SEAMUS!!!" Crap my music!! I shut it off and jumped in bed, turning the lights off too. "I swear to god Seamus if you're sti-" She sighed. "Little faker" Mom left the room and shut the door with a click. I gripped the pillow with my left arm underneath and my right on top, eventually falling asleep.

"Mariah, I told you I didn't want the child! Why couldn't you have put him up for adoption, or not even had him at all!" The angry man looked down and the squirming baby. The little boy had striking blue eyes, and opened them slightly. The yelling continued.
Years later
"Jim! I'm sorry, first this mistake with his father", she pointed to the little four year old, "and now you. If you don't like th-"

"Mommy I'm hungry. Pwease stop yewwing"

"Honey, go back to bed. I will tuck you in in one minute precious angel."

Third Person P.O.V.

Seamus woke up in a cold sweat. The sun was shining through his window blinds. He checked his phone and realized it was the first day of school. But lets back up a bit. Seamus has had those "dreams" for years. He had them so frequently and they seemed so real, he thought of them as memories. His mothers name was Mariah, and he was four years old and looked like the toddler when Charlotte was born. Maybe they weren't dreams and were memories. SHIT! He thought. Seamus had 20 minutes to get ready and eat breakfast before school. He sprinted out of bed and to the bathroom.

"Seamus are you up? School starts in 10 minutes dear!" His mother called from the kitchen. He combed his insane hair and splashed cold water in his face.

"Coming mom!" He ran downstairs and saw his mother. His mom saw bags under his eyes and the stress in his posture.

"The dreams again?"

"Yeah mom. They seem so real. I feel like they are"

"I don't know honey. If you tell me what they are about I could tell you, but you like to keep me in the dark on that". He saw the worry in her face. She tried to cover it with a smile, but failed. He kissed her cheek and grabbed a piece of toast.

"Tell Charlotte I said good luck on her first day of sixth grade!" She nodded and waved goodbye to her son.

Seamus's P.O.V.

I don't like to keep mom in the dark of my dreams. It's just, last time I told her about those things she thought I was insane. She sent me to a doctor to "help" with the dreams. Yeah, never again.

"Hey Seamus!" Ally called from behind me. I was taking a bite of my toast, so when I tried to say hi it failed.

"Hwi Awwy" It ended up sounding like. She giggled and walked with me. I felt bad about that so I swallowed the toast and retried talking. "Hi Ally!" She smiled at me. We continued walking up until I saw one of the scariest things ever.

"Oh my god" we said in unison.
