Alexis' POV

"Jesse..."

Those were the only words that dared to come out of my mouth that day. I had been so lost in thought all day that I failed to say anything other than Jesse's name. Nobody seemed to notice, except Jaden of course. He questioned me about my strange behavior that day, but I merely shook off the question and walked off. Now here I am, hours later, starring out a window and watching rain fall while the radio played without notice.

"It wasn't supposed to turn out like this.." I said, watching rain fall harder and harder each second.

"That was 'All About Us' by TaTu on Star 97.1! Next up today we have 'Grand Theft Autumn' by Fall Out Boy!"

I shook my head and sat down on the arm of a couch, still watching the outside in curiousity. Earlier this morning, the radio hadn't said a thing about heavy rainstorms. I wanted to call the radiostation and tell them they were wrong with slightly harsh words. Speaking of radios, one of my favorite songs was on at the moment.

"Where is your boy tonight?
I hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he won't find out what I know:
You were the last good thing about this part of town."

Now that I think about it, Jesse COULD be a gentleman. I'm sure it's possible but...ugh... why am I even thinking about Jesse of all people... we are just friends..

"When I wake up,
I'm willing to take my chances
On the hope you hate him more than you notice I wrote this for you.
( For you so)"

I slid backwards from the arm of the couch directly onto the couch while my feet pushed me backward, making it possible to rest my head on the opposite arm of the couch. I lowered the volume on the radio down to very low and starred at the ceiling, listening to the rain outside my window. It was so calming just to listen to the rain, as if it washes all the worries in one's head away... It was so relaxing that I didn't even realize I was falling asleep. I wouldn't dare to fight it, so instead, I just closed my eyes and let myself drift off into a world of dreams...
-------------------------------------------
"Hello? Anybody here?" I called out. I found no answer, so I just continued to walk. I found no other source of color, no matter how far I walked. Eventually, I became restless and decided to quit looking.

"Heya, Lex!"

Jaden? No..it's..--

"Jesse! What are you doing here?" I asked. Jesse simply shrugged.

"You are probably just part of my dream." I started. "No way you could be real."

"Hey! That's not true!" he denied.

"If you want me to believe you, just come wake me up and say it." I said.

"Okay, I will! It's a promise, ya hear?" Jesse promised.

"Alright then. A promise it is."

"Great! Well then, see ya soon!" he waved, turning to run off.

"Wait, Jesse.." I stopped him.

"Huh? What is it?" Jesse questioned, turning around.

"I..well, you've been on my mind lately..." I told him. He seemed to be clueless as to what I meant.. just like Jaden. Those two really are alike...

"What do ya mean?" he questioned again.

"I-- Nevermind, I'll tell you later." I said, running off in a hurry.

"Wait! Lex! I---"

I woke up with a slightly loud knock on the door. I yawned, stood up, and walked over to the door.

"Who is it?" I asked, lazily.

"It's me, Jesse!" Jesse called out from the other side of the door. I opened the door and saw the same boy from my dream, also seeming sleepy just like me.

"You came, just like you promised.." I said, seeming a bit happy.

"Yeah, but it sure wasn't easy.." Jesse said with a yawn.

"I understand what you mean." I said, with a little bit of a chuckle. He joined in, and soon the chuckles evolved into laughter.

"Anyways, thanks for coming. Still... why were our dreams connected?" I asked.

"No clue.." Jesse said, shrugging once again.

"Anyway, come in. It's raining like crazy out there, and you might catch a cold if you don't get warm soon." I said, guiding Jesse into the room. I took a spare towel from the closet and handed it to him.

"So.." I started, sitting down on the couch. "Why did you come here even though that dream might have been a fake?"

"Simple." Jesse started. "A promise is a promise. I promised you, or someone who pretended to be you, that I'd come and wake them up. Whether the dream was real or not, I had to keep my promise. Besides, ya won't know until ya try, right?"

"Yes... you've made a good point.." I said with yet another yawn.

"Looks like both of us are tired..." Jesse stated with a yawn as well.

"It's raining like crazy... maybe you should stay here." I suggested. He gave me a strange look at first, but eventually eased up.

"That'd be nice. Thanks, Lex!" Jesse thanked me.

"Your welcome. One problem though: where are you going to sleep?" I questioned.

"Oops.. guess I forgot about that..." he admitted, rubbing the back of his head.

"You can have the couch. I'll take the floor." I offered, grabbing a couple spare pillows from the closet along with a couple blankets.

"I can't just let a lady sleep on the floor, ya know! It wouldn't be right!" Jesse stated. "I'm takin' the floor."

"Are you sure?" I questioned, deeply worried.

"Yep. Sure as I've ever been." he said.

"Okay... Thank you." I thanked him, handing over a pillow and a blanket. I walked over to the couch, set the pillow against one of the arms, layed down, and pulled the cover over my body.

"'Night, Lex." Jesse quietly whispered from his spot on the floor.

"Good night, Jesse.." I said,looking out the window and watched as rain fell harder and harder, causing me to be slightly frightened. Next, heavy thunder erupted like a volcano, causing me to shiver and let out a little squeek that almost evolved into a scream. This didn't go unnoticed, unfortunatly.

"Whoa, Lex, what's wrong? Ya seem to be all squeekish and nervous.." Jesse questioned from the floor.

"Oh.. it's nothing.. don't worry.." I said, faking a smile.

"Well, if ya say so... 'Night.." he gave up, falling back asleep. Once he was asleep, I felt as if something evil was nearing towards all of us... not just me and Jesse, but everybody. The feeling was frightening, almost something even a 12 year old would cry over. I looked down at Jesse, and felt that all my fears melted away in that same second.

"What's wrong with me... he's only a friend... nothing more..." I kept telling myself over and over in my head. I closed my eyes tightly, and managed to fight off the frightening feeling that kept me worried.

But the question is.. what kind of evil is nearing now?

I watch you fast asleep
