Chapter 2

I was awake but I still couldn't see anything or it was just that my eyes were still closed. I was too terrified to open them, the atmosphere still felt very cold and my body still sensed there was somebody just around the corner.

"What if I was dead?"

"Will it be that I am in heaven?"

My thoughts got interrupted by a slight touch on my skin. I found myself crying

"Please don't kill me" I begged.

"Was I the one saying this? After several attempts to end my life I was still begging not to be killed or wasn't this an opportunity I was dreaming of."

"Isabella" A familiar voice called out my name. I was forced to open my eyes.

"Mom" I yelled and ran to hug her. I knew this wasn't supposed to be so because of the fight we had earlier on but I didn't mind.

"Is everything alright?"

I couldn't still answer I just hugged her tightly even more.

She freed herself from my grip.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked.

"I saw. .....No, I felt...." I was still finding it very hard to talk.

My mom patted me on the head.

"Whatever you saw or felt just know you were dreaming. Come downstairs for lunch" and she left.

As soon as she closed the door I felt that strong presence so I ran out to meet her.

"Bella..."

I woke up instantly.

"Didn't you get enough rest at home? Why are you sleeping in class?" Ivy, my best friend asked?

"No, I didn't "

"Don't tell me you are still pained about Henry"

"Who said this was about him?" I asked getting upset.

Ivy blinked repeatedly.

"I had a nightmare"

"Tell me more," she asked getting interested.

I explained everything to her in detail.

I was waiting for that mocking laugh of hers but when I didn't get I became perplexed.

"Ivy?"

"Bella I had the same dream though not entirely the same as yours but it ended the same way."

She could not be serious or was she? I questioned myself.

"Same with Alexander" She blurted out.

After our lectures were over I and she met with Alexander who explained his dream to us.

"Why would we three have the same kind of nightmares?" Ivy asked.

"None of this can be true it's just all in our head so let's go back home and sleep on this" I explained and left in a hurry.

I got home, rushed into my bedroom, and went to take a bath a lot had been going on in my head lately and I didn't want to get sick. I still thought it was just sheer imagination. I hope.

When my fingers crossed my collar I felt a sharp pain. That was where I had gotten a little tattoo to hide it from my mom.

When I was done I was drying my hair when I decided to check out my tattoo. It's been a long I had gotten it so there wasn't any reason for it to hurt.

I felt goosebumps

I wore my clothes and ran out to ivy's house my hair still dripping wet. At least not many people saw me because her house was just next to mine. I was able to find her before she got into the house.

"Bella, what is wrong with you?"

"I showed her the number inscribed on my collar bone"

She showed me hers

"7?"
