The Dreams
I open my eyes to the blinding light that woke me up. I'm on a cliff and how I got there I have no idea but that doesn't seem to be the pressing issue right now. What matters is that I feel drawn towards the blinding light, feels like something keeps calling onto me to step into the light. I don't know why or how either. Like I said I'm standing on a cliff and the blinding light feels ages away. I take a step forward peering down to see my chances of climbing down but I can't even see the end of the cliff.
Now that brought me back to what was supposed to be the first question of a normal person... But well can't really say am a normal person not that I have super powers or something that would have been great and really awesome, am just really really weird. How on earth did I get on this cliff and how am I supposed to get off.
Still thinking on how to get off the cliff, I felt something creep up behind me scaring the guts out of my limbs, I lost footings and fell off the cliff, falling into what seem to be like a bottomless pit. Falling in what seemed to be an endless fall, I only realized what was happening then and let out a scream. And just then I woke up. It was only a dream...
I open my eyes and I realize it was only a dream. I've had this dream three times in a row now and I can't still understand what it means. I always wake up when I eventually fall off the cliff. Each dream letting me fall a bit deeper than the last before I wake up. I slip down from my bed and head downstairs where I find my mom making omelet and pancakes for breakfast and my dad is fixed on his usual morning Tv show. Oh how rude of me, I almost forgot to introduce myself.....
I'm Kaytie Hayes. Your usual average teen. I'm 17 but in a couple of days I'll be 18. Like every average teen I got a best friend, her name is Emma, she's like the craziest person I know and that makes me love her even more. She's almost like a sister to me, even my parents consider her family. I'm an only child so I get a lot of special treatment from my parents. Am still a high school student as you must have been expecting of course.
I headed to the kitchen cabinets, greeting my mom and dad as I stole a pancake.
"How was your night fairy? " - My dad asked from the living room.
"It was great dad thanks"- I answered smiling. I've always loved being called a fairy even if I know I have no special powers, it still makes me feel special I guess.
" Honey don't you think you should prepare for school, Emma would be here anytime you know and she hates being late. " - Mom said as she takes the last set of pancakes off the gas.
"Oh s**t I almost forgot" - I said jumping off the chair and racing upstairs to prepare for school....
I was lucky enough to finish right before Emma's car honk filled the air. I rushed down the stairs forgetting breakfast waving goodbye to my parents as I flung the doors open and rushed into her car.......
As I entered her car I could still hear my dad yelling after me that I haven't had breakfast yet. "Hey babe"- Emma greeted as soon as I entered the car.
She's a pretty blonde on shoulder length curls. I'm no blonde, am brunette. And I got long curls, "the not too curly every girl's dream". I won't say I'm the prettiest of all damsels but hell I got my own charms. A pretty irresistible charm. Smiling at my own thoughts I suddenly realize Emma is staring at me as I'm yet to reply her greetings.
"Dude you've gat to stop doing that"- she says frustrated.
" Stop doing what"- I said acting ignorant
"You've got to stop blanking out on me"
"Oh oh I'm sorry, I'll do better"- I said with a smirk.
"Now that's much better, by the way when are we getting your gown for the big day, we're still getting that red gown I choose right"- she says with one of her wildest grin. I'm not really a fan of red, it's looks way too dangerous, another thing I'm not a fan of, is the gown she choose but Emma here thinks I'll look so hot in it.
" Sure we're, like you will let me wear any other thing, we'll pick it up after school "
"You know I only want what best for you"- she says with a look that said my baby is my pride and we both laughed, cruising to the music that played in the car as we made our way to school.......
We finally arrived at school. Parking at Em's usual spot, we walk into the school hall and everything seemed usual except the hockey guys were playing hockey in our hallway. As soon as we get in my best friend is already dragged out by her club members. It's at such moment I wonder am I really that girl's best friend?. I walk over to my locker to take out my books when a huge guy throwing himself at me in attempt to catch a hockey ball that was yet to come hits me. I landed hard on my locker with my head giving a loud bang on the locker as a result of the push. Just as I got myself off the locker to yell at the guy, the hockey ball came flying in, hitting me hard on my forehead. My body went limp to the floor.....
When I opened my eyes, I was on the floor with a little crowd gathered around me but the hockey guys were no where around me so I had no one to yell at. My best friend was still no where in sight so I gently picked myself up and slowly the little crowd that had formed were gone. I dusted myself and picked up my books. I could tell this was gonna be my worst day so far in high school.....
Only three steps away from my locker and I already met another misfortune. I'm starting to wonder if I was cursed or something but that could only happen if witches were real and fortunately they weren't. Just before I stepped on my doom I heard someone scream my name and say something like "nooooo that's not meant for you"..... But I had already stepped on the banana peels and spilled milk. I was falling again and instinctively I screamed but then I hanged, I wasn't falling no more. Only then could Emma snap me out of whatever ever that was......
Wait.... What in the name of a strawberry juice land just happened? Was that just a dream.........
