Magic Unbound

Awaken, Macy

POV Macy

I woke to a massive bang I almost jumped out of my bed. What the actual f**k was that? Who was that?

Alex and mum always tell me to write my dreams down that they all have meanings. I don't think I will ever forget that dream. Sometimes they didn't just feel like dreams. I was able to sense things and my gut would yell at me, I just was not sure what it was telling me most the time but I knew something or someone big is coming, I take a moment to rethink and bring myself back down to earth. Clearly I was being f*****g stupid.

Still shaken from my dream I think it is time to head bathroom to check what mess I had made of myself just from sleeping, That would have caused massive bedhead and there is no way I want to deal with huge hair not today or any day at that matter. I could never understand the girls who would always be like "OMG I love your hair! Look how red it is, people pay so much money for red curly hair), I would think god if only you knew that I struggle without bed hair to tame it, And today was a lot worse so a shower in the cards.

Sweat was dripping from my brow. My face is completely flustered. I could feel the hotness in my cheeks. It was time to fill the bath with my favourite rosehip and lavender bath bomb to help me calm my nerves.

I was still slightly trembling from that strange Hag thing in my dream. She brought on a lot of fear within me.

I've had intense dreams before but this was completely something else.

Bittersweet though He was there, He was something else, his passion for me gave me butterflies. This mystery man had been in a few of my dreams.

This was the first dream he had spoken to me.

Typical I had fallen in love with a non-exist man from my dreams. I have to pull myself out of thought of this strange man otherwise I would get sweaty for another reason, wouldn't be the first time I m*********d to this hotness of a man who I invented.

I Glanced over to the mirror after trying to brush my hair To my horror, I had a dark mark on my neck, with closer inspection the mark indeed a semi deep scratch. It was in the same spot that thing from my dream got me. I shuttered. I got Goosebumps down my arm and down my spine. A bath was just what I needed. I must have just did it to myself in my dream. I kept trying to relax telling myself I must have scratched myself in my sleep. That is, the only way this could have happened.

A good half an hour went by and I was feeling a lot better.

Thank god, it was Public holiday weekend. I do not think I could handle it today at collage. I hear mum downstairs.

I pray she has heard me up here and has the kettle on.

"Morning mum" she let out a gasp of air "if you can call it that Macy. Michael should home soon I can cook up some lunch we can all eat together if you want?" I know she was trying to make Michael and myself get on. He made so many inappropriate jokes, I know he meant nothing by it. It was just more annoying than anything else "depends on what your making?" winking at her. "Mum I had a dream that felt so real. He was in it again, protecting me this time". She turned to face me "Have you been writing them down like I said?" I did start writing them down but my dreams were so vivid I could never forget them. "Not this one mum. I don't ever want to relive this dream. The strange woman in my dreams seems to be getting closer. She had a stick thing with a stone on it and he protected me". Her eyes almost look like they turned darkest blue. "We need to see Nanna sometime this long weekend. She will read you runes and we will see what this is all about".

I loved my Nanna more than anything but she freaked me out with the runes she did. "Mum Nanna and her hippy friends freak me out when she gets into her spirit mood. Plus, I am going out" her face soften "here just take my necklace. It has Black Tourmaline gemstone it will help warn away negative energy". She meant well and it was a nice necklace so I did what she asked to keep the peace. "Macy dear, don't forget Sunday night its Michelle's 18th birthday. She would hate it if you wasn't there." Michelle is my cousin. We grew up together. Her dad took off after she was born. He got scared and run away like a coward because Michelle was born with Down syndrome.

If he had stayed around, he would have seen that she grew up better than normal. She was super intelligent with heaps of friends. She was always more like a sister to me than a cousin. We shared everything as kids and she was the reason and help me understand a lot about disabilities.

She was the reason why I was studying disability services. She inspired me to be a better person.

Michael walked in it took all my will power not to roll my eyes. "Sexy ladies I cannot tell mother a daughter apart sometimes". I'm just going to put the kettle on and pretend I didn't hear what he said.

"want a cup of tea mum?". Before she even answered Michael piped up "love one sweetie". Gosh he annoyed me, I was not his sweetie. After tea and lunch I could not wait to go see my best friend Alex and get away from this awkward lunch. "Mum I'm going to head down to see Alex. Most likely spend the night there. He was talking about some party up at Elsey's house in high town". I hope she didn't argue with me about it. I just need to take my mind off things. I will just go even if she disagreed with me.

"Okay Macy just txt me when you get back to Alex's so I know you got back to his okay". I am glad she agreed I wasn't in the mood to put up an argument. Michael piped up again "you and Alex seem close, like to close if you know what I mean." Before I could even answer mum did "he is gay Michael, I have told you this 100 times and yet you choose not to believe me." she shook her head and I rolled my eyes. she was right he chooses not to believe he is gay. "I know Pam, but come on as if he most likely just putting it on, You know to be popular like a new movement thing teens do. They all want to be different these days but don't realize that they are just making fools of themselves". I couldn't believe my ears; this guy is a complete douche bag. out of all the idiotic things that he could have said this on takes the cake. "Michael you are a f*****g i***t sometimes. You have completely known idea what you are talking about. You should learn to shut your mouth and be educated on actual life". I just blurted out but he needed to hear some home truths. Mum's eyes widen but she didn't say a thing. I knew she agreed with me in some way. "I'm leaving before I anything else gets said". I walked out before he could even say anything back to me. Slamming the front door couldn't be sweeter, it was like a big screw you Michael your dumb arse. Michael got under my skin so bad.
