IT IS A DREAM or REAL? PROLOGUE: INTRODUCTION OF THE CHARACTERS IN THE STORY: Lucy Forman LaCour loves reading books and writing stories and poems. She met Lucien Fitzpatrick Colasanti in her dream. Will they meet in real life? Or is it just a dream? This story shows a girl who fell for a fictional character in her dream, where she met a character from her favorite story. They fell for each other, but only in a dream.*CHAPTER 1* "How's reading books?" Laurien asked me. "It's fine and it's really fun," I said and smiled. "Did you finish the story you're writing?" she asked me again. "Not yet, I have more time for reading than writing," I replied to Laurien with a laugh. "What's your pen name again, 'Cycy'?" she said to me. "Yeah, it's cute, right?" "Hah, something like that." "Come on, let's go inside the classroom," I invited her because Professor Kirkus for our science subject will be here any minute. <<FLASHBACK>>> (Chapter 2) Lucy POV "You know Lucy, why do you love reading books so much?" Laurien asked me while she was eating. "Why are you asking?" I answered Laurien with a raised eyebrow. "I've been watching you since earlier, and also why don't you have a boyfriend yet?" "I'd rather read books than have a boyfriend, and I'm fine with falling for a fictional character," I explained to Laurien. "I get you, bestie," she said to me and smiled. The bell rang, so we went inside the classroom. We were waiting for our next subject teacher, Profesora Patricia, our English teacher.

"You're so annoying, always," she said to me, then rolled her eyes. _(I really want to tease her more)_ Lian is so handsome. Smart, tall, sharp nose, and her family is rich - billionaires. She's my childhood best friend. I didn't like her because she's rich, I liked her because she has a pure heart. She's really so handsome, but her actions are softer than a girl's. "My husband is so handsome," Lian said while blushing, whispering to Tyrone, the popular guy on our campus. "Tsk, I think he already has a girlfriend," I cut in. "Hey, just be quiet there," she told me. "I'm just telling you, I could do it too, why him?" I whispered. "We're not losing, I'm a girl too," she replied sassily. *Chapter 2# - Kiana POV* Professor Evander was teaching us math. Lian and I sat next to each other, and I couldn't stop staring at his handsome face. "Wow, careful, I might melt from your stare, girl?" Lian suddenly said to me. "You're so full of yourself," I told him, while I was also lying to him. "Tsk, I know you're lying," she said to me. "Are you a mind reader or what?" I teased him. _[Fast forward]_ The bell rang, it's already lunch time, so Professor Evander left. "Goodbye, Professor," we all said before he left. *Chapter 3#* "Let's go girl, let's have lunch, I'm so hungry," Lian told me. "Okay," I said. Lian and I got in line. "The line is so long, and it's so crowded," Lian complained. "Hays, what can we do?" I said to her. "I'm soooo hungry," she said to me and rolled her eyes. "Eat that plate you're holding then," I told her and rolled my eyes too. "Wow you're so sassy to me now," she said to me. "Finally I'm full," Lian said while holding her stomach. "Good for you," I said. "It's almost 1:00PM, class will start again," Lian said. "What can we do, that time can't be stopped?" I told her while eating a Stick-O.
