-I’m running.
I don’t know what from.
It’s chasing me, snapping twigs and branches with its loud thumping footsteps.
It only makes me run faster.
I can’t turn and look around, I have to watch where I’m going, or I’ll surely get killed by… Whatever it is. I’m gasping, and slowing down. It’s growling on my neck, so close I can smell the horrible stench leaking from its mouth. I sprint ahead of it, hiding quickly in the darkness of a tree. I cover my mouth, to lessen the sound of my breathing.
“Tally… Where are you…?” I hear in a deep, low rumble. Holy fucking penis. Tears of fear well into my eyes.
“Tally?” the voice changes, to one I scarcely recognize as my mother’s voice.
“…Mom?” I call out.
“Oh, Tally! I’ve missed you so! Come out here, let me see you!” I get up, and step out of the darkness, letting the moon light me up. A small shadow comes near me, and I feel arms wrapping around me.
“Tally! I’ve missed you! You should have came and visit me. But it’s okay now, I have you here-“ She continues on with the calming, encouraging words. I lean into the shadow, closing my eyes.
“Tally, it’s been so long! I just can’t wait to eat up your bones!” The voice changes back to the horrific, terrifying growl of the seething monster. The shadow grows larger, and I gasp right when it’s about to eat me-
I fling up in the bed, cold sweat soaking my body. My hair is matted to my head, and I’m breathing heavily. Shuddering, I remember the horrid dream.
“That’s right. It was just a dream.” I lay back down, but cannot go back to sleep. After tossing and turning for nearly half an hour, I check a clock. It’s only 2! Damn it. I get up, sighing, and stumble to Americas’ room. He’s passed out in a dazed mess. While his legs are together, his arms are up like he’s an airplane. I smile at the adorableness. Well, I’ll wake up before him, and he’ll never know I slept with him. Easy. I slowly climb into his bed, careful not to wake him up. Once completely settled into the bed, I snuggle into his broad chest, one hand on his chest and the other covering my stomach. He stirs, and I freeze. Will he wake up? He grunts sleepily.
“B-Britain? Is that you?” He mutters sleepily. Before I could respond, He groans. “I told you, the scary dreams are not real. But if you really want to sleep with me, fine. I don’t care.” He immediately wraps an arm around my waist. I sigh in relief, closing my eyes. Feeling surrounded by comfort, I fall asleep quickly, muttering a quiet, ‘Goodnight, big brother.’
He is my only family member for now.
