I was having that best dream. I'd been on holiday with an old school friend of mine and we'd gone to a caravan up in the north of Wales for the fortnight. We stopped off at a cafe and Kier walked in and it was like we were dating or something and he'd decided to come up and surprise me which was very thoughtful of Dream Kier because none of my other boyfriends had ever been so romantic with me then again I hadn't had many boyfriends in my 22 years of life. Anyway back on topic, Kier had come and surprised me on holiday and was in the middle of declaring his undying love for me but when he opened his mouth all I could hear was "BEEP BEEP BEEP" which confused me so I asked him to repeat it except this time when he opened his mouth all I got was "BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEP" the dream started to fade as I became increasingly aware that the incessant beeping was coming from my alarm clock.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEP
I groaned as the dream stopped entirely and I slapped the button on top of my alarm clock blearily looking up to see what time the red numbers were displaying. 07:30. Dammit I forgot to turn my alarm off for work. I throw back my violet bed covers and swing my feet out into my waiting slippers.
Shuffling out my bedroom door I stop to stare at the scene playing out before me. Esk is at the oven cooking what looked like a full English breakfast for an entire army as Laurence perchs on one of the tall stools at the breakfast bar watching the news on our tiny kitchen telly. Scratching my head in slight confusion I carried on walking towards them slowly, wondering why Laurence was here and when Esk had learnt how to cook when all of a sudden I remember the events of the previous night. Collapsing to the floor in an ungraceful pile I finally catch the attention of Laurence who runs forward to catch me, he lifts me into his arms and carries me to the sofa as my roommate follows behind with a cup of tea. Laurence took a seat beside me and after she'd place the mug down in the table Esk joined on my other side me. Reaching forward to grab hand Laurence took it into both of his and said to me "Anna, I think now would be the best time to tell us what's been going on. Who is James? Why is he texting you those things? Tell me everything now, I want to help you." I take a deep breath to steady my emotions before I plunge into my story. "This may take a while so bear with me." They both nod in unison for me to continue and I begin.

(A/N So it has been months since I last updated I just got caught up in a lot of stuff that was going on, all my mock GCSE exams and honestly I didn't think anyone actually read this!
