I look around, for a moment I have no idea where I am, until I seem to remember I'm in a hotel room.

I sigh and turn around, Stephanie is still lying on her bed, she looks like she's sleeping. I smile and walk over to the bathroom to get some water. When I walk back I look at the alarm clock, wanting to know how late it is.

But instead of showing me the time it's just flickering and tripping. I frown, shrug and grab my phone for the time. But my phone does the exact same thing as the alarm clock.

Weird, I think to myself as I put on the tv, but even the tv is flickering and crashing. Looks like something is wrong with all of the electronics.

I look up when I hear our hotel room slowly open, the lights in the hallway go out for a moment before going on again. "Josh? Sky? Boys? Come on guys this isn't funny!" I say as I jump on my bed, getting scared.

But instead of hearing some snickering from the guys I hear nothing but conplete silence. The door opens up further and I see a man walking in.

It takes me a moment to realise who I'm looking at.. It's Mark, my ex-foster dad, and he seems to be covered in what looks like.. blood? And that would be a less frightening if it would be his own blood, but it wasn't.

Mark is grinning at me while walking closer to me. "Go away, go away!" I yell. "Oh I'm not going anywhere, ask your friend." He says, nodding towards Stephanie's bed.

I frown but turn around to see Stephanie, standing there, her back turned towards me. I didn't hear her wake up, strange. As I look closely I notice that, not only she, but also her bed is covered in blood.

"Stephanie? Steph are you okay?" I ask slowly. Stephanie turn around to me and I begin to scream, hard. She is missing here eyes, the place where her heart would be is empty, and she is just grinning at me, not saying anything.

I start to scream even harder when I look back at Mark, but this time Chaz and Josh are standing behind him, also missing their eyes and heart, and also covered in blood.

"Liiiizzyyy." I hear someone next to me say. I look around to see Ben sitting next to me. Where once his beautiful, sky blue eyes were is now only a black abyss.

I start to shake my head as I crawl away from him. He grabs my wrist and grins. "Lizzyyyy." He says slowly.

"Please leave me alone! Please!" I say, while screaming, tears streaming down my cheeks.

I feel something cold hitting my face, and when I shot up I'm in my hotel room again, I see a lot of people standing around me, and I scream again, before I notice the horror is gone.

Cold water is dripping from my hair and nose, Ben is sitting next to me, holding my hand while some others are standing around me.

"What happend?" I ask, but my throat hurts and there's not comming much sound from it. "I-I woke up by you screaming and crying in your bed, I tried to wake you up but you were fast asleep, no matter what I tried. Your screams became harder and harder, you sounded terrified. Eventually the guys heard you and came here, someone called Jeff and now we're here." Stephanie says, but I see her eyes are puffy and red, she just cried... because of me...

"I'm sorry.. It wouldn't happen again.. I will try, I promise." I say as I look arround the room, seeing all those concerned faces.

My eyes lock with Jeff, and I nod to him. Jeff's the only one who knows about my night terrors when Jeremy just fostered me. He's also the only one who knows I had one again not that long ago.

"I'm okay, I promise. You can all go back to sleep, we have I show in just a few hours!" I say, being made up happy as I realize it's 3 A.M in the morning.

The boys seem hesitant for a moment before they walk out of the room. I look up to see Ben still siting besided me.

I look at him for a few seconds, the real him, not the one I just saw, covered in blood and two black holes where those beautiful should have been.

"Liz, are you re-" but before he can finish that sentence I hug him, tightly. I feel new tears start to form in my eyes before they decide to just roll over my cheeks.

"What was you dream about?" Ben wispers softly after a few minutes, 'cause Stephanie already fell asleep again. I pull apart and look at him.

He smiles softly, wiping my tears away with his thumb. "I had a night terror, a few years actually, they were gone not long agter Jeremy fostered me. But not that long ago they came back. I don't wanna talk about what I saw." I respond softly.

"Pff, you're one lucky girl." Ben says with a small laugh. "You can say so." I say, laughing along with him. "Ah, Jeez." I say with a laugh, wiping away all my tears.

"I probably look like mothman right now." I say with a laugh, referring to my red eyes. "A little bit." Ben says. I sigh and look up at him.

"Please don't leave me." I wisper softly. "I would never leave you Lizzy, I promise." Ben says to me. "I meant now nerd, I want you to stay with me tonight." I say with a laugh.

"Ah." I see him slightly becoming red before he lies down with me in the bed. "I knew that." He wispers before we fall asleep.
