As I woke up in a fit of terror in a pool of my sweat as I remembered the dream that had just hit me like a ton of bricks In my peaceful slumber.

"NO STOP PLEASE, PLEASE STOP NOW," I yelled at the dark face standing in front of me. He kept coming closer and closer with the dark object held tightly in his grip. As he was creeping  closer to me I realized that there was a knife in his hand, a bloody knife at that. In that moment of fear my focus then lead to the lifeless body Behind the killer. As I recognized the limp body I kept trying to walk towards it but something was holding me back.

It was like my eyes were glued shut after the night terror. Afraid that the dream was real and the killer was coming for me. When my eyes were finally pried open a quick sigh escaped my mouth because I realized it was only a dream and the only person in my house was me. This has been happening for the better part of 2 years, and please don't tell me to go see a therapist or something because trust me I have and it doesn't help anything.  I looked at the red light illuminating on my left side. 3:34 was the time that was displayed on the digital alarm clock. Well, I got a longer sleep than usual seeing as I went to sleep around 11.

I decided to lift the weighted blanket off of my warm body and go ahead and get ready for the day. I had to be at the bus stop by 7:30 and I usually miss the bus and show up late so maybe today will be an exception. Eh maybe not I thought as soaked in the warmth of the shower. The water made me feel at ease and I must have been standing under it for a long time because by the time I fell out of my daze the water was lukewarm.  I decided to get out of the shower. I looked into my wardrobe and saw the same clothes I see everyday and decide to wear a pair of distressed white jeans, a black and white stripped top, and my old black Converse. After I got dressed I looked at the clock one more time before going down stairs. The clock read 4:15 which meant that I had 2 hours and 45 minutes before I had to be at school.

My mom was out with her boyfriend so I decided to cook breakfast for myself. I looked into the wimpy fridge and decided to cook a frozen sausage patty and and a biscuit from the roll of them in fridge. I Put the biscuit in the oven on 350 and the patty on the stove eye to cook. I decided that I would make an egg to go with my sausage biscuit because it seemed kind of sad without it. I added salt and pepper to my egg then put it atop the biscuit to make it complete. I gulped it down in about 2 minutes and by the time I was done it was 5 am. I decided to turn on the T.V. in the living room and catch up on Law and Order. SVU not Criminal Intent, why does that even exist?

When I got done with the two episodes it was 7:05 and almost time for me to catch the bus. I quickly ran upstairs to put my binder into my back pack and ran back down stairs with my back pack in tow. I grabbed my keys off of the kitchen counter and walked to lock the door. I stepped outside and it was quite warm so I walked to the bus stop and waited. The large yellow vehicle finally arrived and I already had my head phones in to block out the sounds of the annoying people which I had to ride with most days. I only heard 5 Seconds of Summer when we reached our destination. I quickly put my phone away and chuckled at our "no phone policy" at school. No one really listens to that crap, they only do it so they can pass board inspections. Did I mention that this place was literally a dump. Half of the teachers are pedophiles and the other half are just crappy teachers. There was one teacher who really stood out and she was the best. She was most students favorite with her 1950's vintage glasses and beautiful black locks.  The reason the male students liked her is because of her looks and the reason that females liked her is because she was very relatable and in her mid 20's. She truly was the best, my mind drifted back to reality and I noticed people doing their normal thing and talking amongst each other.

I walked to my locker and opened it to see a note on a piece of blue paper. It read "look, I know you probably wouldn't want to give me a chance but if you would please meet me on the football bleachers after school. I would really like to get to know you better-Mason." Oh my gosh I thought in my head. The Mason Montgomery wanted me to meet him after school. Mason was the the guy of my dreams, athletic, smart, and very handsome. I didn't even know he knew I existed until now. I  hesitated for a moment before closing my locker shut again. My heart did a pitter-patter motion as Mason looked over at me with his ocean blue eyes and gave me a small wink before continuing with his friends. I thought for a second why would he want me? He could have any girl in this whole dump and he chose me? I was knocked out of my daze by a paper airplane that had just hit me in the back of the head and I looked around for the person who threw it but everyone seemed oblivious so I turned on my heel and walked to my first block English class.
