Chapter 2: Meeting Someone New

On Monday moning I did not want to get out of bed. Last night the 'dog' dream came back to haunt me, and I woke in the middle of the night screaming. The rest of the night I slept with the light on. It was horrible. In the morning I just sucked it up and got dressed and left the house, afraid if I stoped they would ask what the screaming was last night and I was not in the mood to talk about it. Mondays are bad enough. 

 

I started for the bus. I very well knew my way to school but I always take the bus because my mom worrys about me. Today I sat alone. I reached for my IPod out of my backpack and started listening to music. I stared out the window to the familar scenery and closed my eyes and then took a deep breath. Then I fell asleep.

 

When I fell asleep I dreamt that I was at home. Things were normal, Mom was making dinner. Then a loud bark came from outside the house. I froze. Could it be? No, not now, not again. Then the dog came into the door and said, "Remember me?" (It made sense in my dreams) "No!" I tried to run Then I screamed and woke up.

 

My face tured red and I hid my head. Then the bus got quiet then began to get noisey again asking "Who did that?" "What the Hell was that?" Good, I thought no one knew it was me. "Don't worry" a voice said from behind. I looked and there was an unfumilar face. He was a boy with shoulder lenth brown hair and it went a little bit in front of his eyes, his gorgous gold-green eyes. He smiled. He was pretty cute. "H-h..el..o" I managed to say. He smiled. My face flushed. "I heard you scream." My eyes got wide. Great, I had a bad dream now I'm going to have a bad day. "It's okay. I wont tell." He said "Thanks" I said kind of shy. "Don't mention it." He smiled, I smiled, then it hit me, like a missel going a hundread miles an hour. A voice inside my head, ''You have a BOYFRIEND'' as if it were screaming at me. "I know!" I said back. I was not thinking of doing anything more than talking with him.

 

"Hey" he said as I started to look away. "Yes" I managed to answer. I tried not to lose my cool. Just then we arrived at school. Ah, school where are tiny minds can learn the educatetional system and blah blah blah, so forth and on and on. I hate school. I hate teachers but the thing I hate most is counslers! They try to hard to make the world perfect. "The world will be good to you if you are good to it" is what my old counsler use to say. Now I'm more if a suffer in silence type. No matter how hard they try they can't make me get over my fear!
