I ripped of my blankets and threw on some clothes. I was up before anyone else was. I got in my car and drove straight to school. It was 6:30 but I knew who would be at school this early, Mrs. Daylock. As I entered her classroom, she smiled at me and looked beautiful and very suffistacated, as always.
"It's 6:30!" Said Mrs. Daylock said, "what brings you here so early?!"
"Mrs. Daylock. What do you know about my dreams?"
I looked at her and gave her a face that demanded some answers. She gave a sigh and motioned me to sit, I was much to worried, I couldn't.
"Paisley, there are few like me and you. And I'm sure that's why you moved here. People like us have dreams and the dreams decide what the future holds. We change the future with each dream we have and we can't stop it. "
"So it happens to you too?!?!" I ask.
"Since I was 12." She said. "Don't you wonder why I'm here at 6? I can't sleep! The older you start having realistic dreams, the more sever they are. You obviously just started so your going to have a rough time. I take it you had a bad one last. Why don't you tell me about it?
"Someone I love, I'm not sure who, is seriously injured. I can tell, I can feel it! I had to leave home because I don't want it to happen to my mom or brothers!" I scream.
I could tell Mrs. Daylock could feel my pain, she lowered her head.
"Those are the worst." She whispered. "This is why I'm worried about having a child. There is 50 percent chance it will be handed down to my baby girl."
She placed her hands softly on her stomach and took a deep breath.
"This means.... My mom has this gift too!!" I tell!
"Possibly, or it could be your dad."
No. I knew it was my mom. I wondered why we were so close! And why did she move us so far away? She probably had a dream! But why would she say that we wouldn't always be together?
Kids started walking through the door so me and Mrs. Daylock departed and I forgot about my dream. I was finally understanding some things and bits and pieces were falling into place! There were still some unanswered questions tho. My phone buzzed and I looked at my phone. It was a text message from Drew. Her text told me she would be a few hours late to school.
"Goodmorning class, how was everyone's morning?" Asked Mrs. Daylock. She always asked us a question to begin the day. She began talking to the class about science fair when the phone rang. My stomach clenched. No, I thought. This isn't what I think it is.
Mrs. Daylock answered the phone with a wide smile and it quickly faded. She looked to the ground and then looked at me.
"Paisley..."
The world stopped spinning. The air became thinner and thinner until my lungs were raisins. My heart had been plunged with guilt, and my head became overwhelmed with darkness because I knew... I knew. The feeling I was experiencing as she looked at me was indescribable. Every bone in my body was clenching, tightened so tight that I lost all control and I couldn't believe the words that came out of her mouth.
"It's Drew."
The words she spoke I didn't want to beleive. My eyes filled up with tears and my eyesight was blurry. I threw my body out of my chair and I slammed against the floor. I couldn't help but to scream and hold my stomach.
"I just talked to her how can this happen to her?!?!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.
My world stopped and I couldn't breath. I felt someone's arms wrap around me but I couldn't look up. My tears were glueing my eyes shut and I couldn't stop screaming. I had no energy and I was holding back from throwing up. I was tossing my body everywhere in the arms of this mystery person and screaming that this couldn't happen. When I took my first breath from my cry, a slit of my eye opened, and it was lance who was holding me in his arms. His eyes looked at me in the most panicked way. He was yelling at me what's wrong, what's wrong??
The only words that could come out of my mouth were so true.
"I'm a monster."
