"Class we have a new student, his name is Casey Maule" My first reaction was that it was a coincidence but he came into the room and everything went fuzzy. It's him, oh god it's him, I'm still hoping that it's not but I'm terrified. I feel the hair on the back of my neck rises. I look over to Cherry and tap her on the shoulder. I try to tell her but I just yawn. The last thing I see is Cherry raising her hand and then I slump over in my chair. -------------------------- Billy Jane has narcolepsy, so when experiencing certain strong emotions she falls asleep and it's out of her control. Her first episode was when she moved to South America. Her second was when her parents separated and got a divorce. The doctors said that the sleeping episodes are induced by feelings of uncertainty, sadness or fear. When she does fall asleep she has hallucinations that make no sense. The hallucinations stopped but she still has episodes of narcolepsy. In her Junior year of high school they start up again it's much more than she thinks. Billy Jane had to fight to stay awake and struggle her way through the mess of her dreams to find who's hiding in the center. ------------------------- Not that's it's really important but I thought you should now that the dreams Billy Jane has are all dreams that I've actually had.

I woke to a sudden breeze invading the warmth from the heavy blanket that caressed my skin. Here, alone with my thoughts, the still, calm quiet in the atmosphere is almost painful. I feel suffocated in the clingy, static air. In quiet, still moments like these, I can almost feel Him. I don't know who "Him" is, but I can feel his presence. It's almost calming, especially on fearful, anxiety fueled nights. Usually, he was the strongest when I had a nightmare. The nightmares weren't as common now, but, right after everything happened, I was having them every night. I'd wake up and swear I was drenched in blood, my eyes and lips sticky, my nose filled with the smell of iron and fuel. After everything, that's when Him first came. From there, he just never left. I can usually sense when Him is near. Today, though, his presence is stronger. I can almost feel Him next to me, weighing down the mattress. Some nights, I roll over and imagine how he looks, envision his smile or the sparkle in his eyes. He's never there and I'm left clutching to the thought that he exists, staring into empty air. Tonight, though, I swear I can reach out and touch him. Extending my hand gently, I sweep my hand out into the darkness and meet an inexplicable warmth. A scream rips from my lungs as hands cover my face and two icy blue eyes stare back at me, daring me to speak again. A soft cloth caressed my nose and mouth before I felt myself fade into bed.
