Another day another nightmare.
nightmares always with the nightmares my life inst getting any better by the hour, Lizzie sighed as she rolled out of another motel bed sprawling taking her blanket and soaked sheets with her straight onto the far to hard and clearly dirty floor. Groaning she pushed her self off the ground onto her knees to look for her misplaced mobile under the bed.
" fuck its only 3" standing fully she walked slowly over to the bathroom only to look at her self in the mirror, with matted short blonde hair and dark black circles under her eyes she shuttered
"always with the nightmares really?" frustratingly washing her hands as after silently brushing off any dirt that had gotten onto her favourite batman nightie something of a nervous mannerism or tick she always did after having one of her episodes. Why me? Tonight it was a bit different but none the less terrifying for the last 3 weeks all she had been dreaming about was waking up in a pine box under the ground and each time she woke just after digging the way out and collapsing in what looked like a crater where a nuke went off.
"well I guess I better go and get some coffee, maybe a shower first you really look like a fucking zombie" as she stripped and hopped into the warm shower.
Showers were something that Lizzie loved well almost as much as coffee and red bull, Lizzie didn't have a lot to love about her life, wasn't gorgeous by any means and definitely wasn't talented she was just Lizzie , a plain nerdy bookworm with horrific nightmares that much like life didn't see any point in.
leaning her head against the shower wall she thought about what she was doing, driving around , staying in motels looking for a reason for everything.
Oh god I sound like one of those self help commercials on TV! Shaking her head to get the water out of her eyes. Drying her self off she dressed into her favourite jeans with a very worn brown leather jacket and a singlet that fit her well. Looking in the mirror she sighed and walked out the door straight to her old beat up Toyota that had taken her around, she had left home on her 21 birthday around 6 months ago, when the nightmares and the feelings had started.
At first it was just emotions that she felt didn't belong to her. Anger, sadness, lust, happiness the stronger feelings then the little ones as well.
I had to get out, Leave. To many emotions at home, to much anger and contempt. So Lizzie left and hadn't looked back except maybe to call her little sister her rock.
Driving around usually cleared her head unfortunately something about tonight shook her. Looking out her window at the small town that she really didn't know the name of the only place open was a small diner called jimmy's.
"god I hope they have red bull." getting out of the car I walked into the diner it was small but looked somewhat sweet. Walking over to one of the tables I sat down and took a look at the fridge in the corner,yes! They have red bull
just as I was about to walk over a small waitress came to my table" what would u like tonight have u looked at the menu?" she asked while dotting on the small note pad. "Um yes I would like some red bull please and a cup of coffee" smiling as politely as I could considering I could hardly keep my eyes open" cant you sleep love, that's no good ill get your drinks right away" walking of to the fridge and then bringing me the coffee I thanked her as she attended to the 2 other guests in the dinner, I hadn't noticed them before but I could see them clearly now. Both were men quite cute as I could see talking amongst them selves quietly.
Opening my red bull I took a sip and I felt some of the life come back into my body, sighing I sunk down into the chair leaning my head onto the table.
