The mystery Continues

     I awoke at 2am. tears in my eyes, another one of my nightmares. The ones where creatures lurk in the dark and peoples flesh burn. I do believe this is why my father went to search for her. he wanted to know why me? why must a little girl know death before she knows her ABC's. this time it was different though the people didnt die. Taylor, the mysterious stranger and i had saved them. I went to the bathroom to clean the persperation from my face. I ran the water trying to get it close to bone chilling. i splashed my face a time or two. Unlike the many other times i do this very thing i glanced into the rectangular mirror. my eyes a mystinc white only my pupil showed. chills flowed up my spine, goose bumps spread. The phone began ringing. Still stunned i walked to the night stand and answered it. "soon your questions will be answered" then the dial tone.

 

     the sun streamed in from the window. dust particles became noticeable. I threw back my covers, and ran to the bathroom. I stared in the mirror wondering if it were just a dream. My eyes shone their same lightning blue, but the question was still burned in my mind.  I turned on the shower, as hot as i could. I needed to relieve the stress of the night. I stood in the blazing hot rain of the shower for a good 40 minutes. The i got out brushed my my teeth and combed out my hair. I was walking to back to my room when there was a knock at the door. My heart beat quickened slightly as i raced to the door. I attempted to jerk it open but it did not budge. I locked it yesterday. i quickly undid the lock. When i opened the door i gasped. standing in front of me was Taylor.

 

     He asked politely if he could come in. he said something was puzzling him. I opened the door wider as his invitation. he walked in with such grace, for a guy that is. he was gorgeous, i thouhgt to myself, thats most likely why i dreamt of him. Its only natural a guy like him would be a knight in shining armour in any girls eyes. Now that i was paying more attention his face was so.. so perfect. She looked at me intently with his cold blue eyes. My stomach did a flip. he began to speak. "i had a dream last night" his voice sounded very confused "it was like no other i have ever experienced" i began to listen with great interest. could it have been the same dream? "you were in it, as beautiful as you could be, but also powerful" i knew my face was showing what he probably already knew " I could feel the power and the dream turned out to be something of a different sort" his words struck me for i had felt the same way "the ending changed, together we saved". I did not notice it at first but i was sitting by him. My hand in his. his eyes and mine met the attraction was like a magnet to a magnet. A moth to a flame.

 

    the room began to spin as his lip lightly touched mine. i went itno a slight daze. i took in every detail of the moment. i breathed in his leathery smell, i felt the softness of his hand caressing my face, and i tasted the slightest bit of caffeine. We broke apart and things grew awkward. he said he was sorry, and ill i did was blush. i asked if hed like to stay awhile. he smiled his mysterious smile and then bit his bottom lip and said "sure". I put in a movie, my favorite of course. The Notebook began to play. A smirk enlightened his face. "This is my favorite movie" he sighed. he came closer put his arm around me, pulled me close. he layed his head on mine. slowly i drifted to sleep.

 

   i woke up in his arms, but my arms were burning, or stinging i couldnt really tell. he woke to and i could see that the feeling i had we shared. I pulled up the sleeves on my long sleeved black shirt. Symbols were forming, swirling. they looked like bruises or maybe tattoos. Panic finally struck after suprise. I looked to Taylor hoping he would know the answer. His face was paler then usual for the same symbols were embedded on his skin.
