"I felt like I was watching a dream I'd never wake up from...and before I knew it, the dream was all over."
When I was younger, I would dream.
Sometimes I would dream of dragons, of Quidditch, of family. I'd dream when I was lonely, I'd dream when I was sad.
I'd dream a lot. And it made me happy.
Once I got older-the dreams, they stopped…
Instead, I'd have nightmares.
Sometimes it would be of death, of loneliness, of failure.
I'd have nightmares when I was lonely, when I was sad.
I'd have nightmares a lot. And it makes me more sad, more lonely, more lost.
It never ended, these nightmares. Every time I blink, every time I close my eyes, there they are; hooded evil…shrouded death. Surrounding me in the darkness--
"Mr. Malfoy?" It was Professor Snape. I dazed off again.
"Sorry…Professor…" I muttered. Don't sleep…they'll come back for you. In the back of my head a voice says, They're just dreams, they aren't real.
It's true, they aren't. but these aren't normal nightmares. I know, it sounds so farfetched, but if you saw it…if you were there!
Damn I'm so weak.
"Mr. Malfoy?" Professor Snape again. "You look awful. Go to the Hospital Wing."
I nodded slowly, to tired to argue.
