Chapter 69 : Nightmare

*Delilah*

The nightmare wouldn’t let me wake up. I knew it wasn’t real and that I was asleep but I was stuck. I was stuck in this horrible sequence of events. I kept seeing the same thing happening. It was a warning, the most terrifying warning.

Something horrible was coming and it was coming soon.

I woke up with a start. My heart was beating out of control and I couldn’t find my breath. I jumped out of bed and started pacing the room. I spun on my heel and walked into the bathroom to splash water on my face. The water helped a little bit but I could still feel my heart beating out of my chest.

I stood in the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. I looked pale and I was shaking. I braced myself against the counter, my fingers gripping the edge of the sink. It felt cool against my skin but it made me shiver.

The bathroom was dark and eerie so I decided to go back to the bedroom. Andrew was sound asleep and I wished I could join him in that slumber.
