Mariline's eyes opened widely and she checked the time. It was 4:00am. She bit her lips and brought out a gentle moan. Oh, he was gorgeous. She couldn't believe she had such a dream. No more hotty Caleb make out dreams. She was definitely going for Liveda when she saw him again. Ouch, it stung her heart. Where would she see him again?
She went downstairs to the kitchen to grab some bread since she felt hungry, and as she turned to leave, a shadow scared her to the brim. It had horns and sharp claws. She began to pant heavily and streams of sweat covered her face. "Who is there?" she spoke out. Her voice was supposed to come out firm, but it sounded like a puppy in pain instead. Oh great, now how would the creature know she wasn't scared.
"You can't run away from me, Elimen. I will consume your soul till your existence fades away," it said, and now she could actually see it. The fangs were pointy and poisonous blood dripped down.
She was still alive, so whose blood could that be? She began to feel dizzy and rejected the thought that ran through her head. It couldn't be any of her family members. The monster came much closer, and instead of running, she stood there with admiration. It had the perfect jaw, blue eyes with arched eyebrows. How was a monster this beautiful? She raised her hand and touched its cheekbone. Surprisingly, it didn't kill her or run. Instead, it pulled her closer by wrapping its hand around her waist. Something about this creature seemed familiar. Those blue eyes reminded her of Liveda.
"Should I pour a jar of water on her?" she heard a faint voice that sounded like Adrenia.
"We are the nice guys now, remember," another voice said, and she was certain it was Carmalo. Suddenly, the monster faded away and she opened her eyes. Hold it, hold it, she thought to herself. Did she just have a dream in a dream? But she had woken up at four and gone to the kitchen. "High time you are awake, I was wondering the prank to pull on you while sleeping. And please, Mari, anytime you are having an erotic dream, don't let it show on your face."
She looked at her annoying sister and turned to look at Carmalo. He was choking with laughter, and it made her smile. He was just so cute.
"What do you mean by erotic dream?" she watched them both and saw their exchange of grins.
"You tell her," Carmalo said while looking at Adrenia.
"No, you tell her," she responded. They kept on exchanging words, and she was losing hope that she would get any information from them.
"Fine fine fine I will tell her. See Mari you were whimpering in your dream ok .there I told her ". Carmalo said with a hand up surrender mode.
Remembering her first dream Mariline smiled...
"I knew she had a sweet dream. Was he cute?" Adrenia asked in an excited tone and Mari shook her head in embarrassment and headed for the bathroom to prepare for school.
