     "I need help". "I need your help. I can't do this on my own". "People are going to die if nothing is done". "Don't you even care that people are in danger?" "Those cars are going topple into the river and it will be over". "I just don't understand you, you say you love me yet you refuse to help me". I hold my hand out towards him but he doesn't even look at me. He turns his back on me and starts to walk away. My eyes start welling up with tears as his actions seem like the ultimate betrayal. "Please I need you". "PLEASE DON'T GO". 


Before I could shout his name and see his face, the dream ends and I wake up in a sweat. It takes a while for me to realize that I'm back in my bed and that I had the same dream again. The same dream which has been haunting me for weeks now. My heart is always pounding out of my chest every time I have this dream because I know it's not only a dream. It is a window of what is it to come. Its part of the special gifts I have. 

Usually I can handle what's to come but this particular vision terrifies me. Why? Because people are in danger and I don't want anyone to die because of me. I've always wanted to help people with my gifts not sentence them to death. I grab my pillow which had been flung to the floor and try to coax myself to sleep. "Only a few hours to go until I'm awake again" I groan to myself. "Paige, you really are losing it" I say to myself. I'm losing it because I happen to be Paige Fields. An American in her late twenties that has telepathy and is a psychic. So I can read your mind and sense and see things coming. As far as I know I'm the only person with these specific abilities. 

It's my big secret from older sister Brooke. Only my best friend Johanna knows. Besides her no one else knows about "my gifts". Not yet anyway as the mystery man in my dreams will find out because he is like me. He is destined to be my kindred spirit. It's true because I've foreseen it. 

As a result, I won't be alone anymore. We are supposed to fall madly in love. Marry, have kids and always be together. But I also have the sinking feeling that we being and staying together won't be easy. I, for one am a little worried about my sanity in terms of already having feelings for someone I haven't even met yet. For now though, I just want to get back to sleep and pray that waiting for the "dream guy" ends soon. I just hope maybe in the next vision I get I actually get a name or his face. I don't really mind which I get first.
