Things weren't always so easy. I remember when my friends and I risked our lives for justice. Only a small group of us remained. Thinking back to those times never made me feel any better, but I could never forget them. The events always came back to haunt me, especially in my dreams. Why did the memories always have to come back during the best times?
"Jamie, wake up!" I looked up to see my four best friends staring down at me. What the hell had just happened? Wait. I was young. The whole thing had been a dream this whole time.
"Hey guys! Let me guess. My mom let you guys up here?" I said happily.
"Of course she did. Well, you seem excited this morning." Kendall said.
I blushed. That dream so wrong because of a lot of things. First of all, I liked Kendall instead of James. Things could be so weird sometimes. Second, I didn't even know any of those people who were my friends in my dream except Kendall, James, Carlos, and Logan.
"Yeah, I had a bad dream last night." I said.
"Well it was only a dream." Logan said patting my shoulder.
"Yeah it makes me feel better." I said with a laugh.
"Go get a shower and get dressed." James said handing me some clothes.
It was the same outfit I wore when they woke me up in my dream. This was weird. I shook my head and went into my bathroom. I took my shower and put on my makeup. I looked good. I just hoped my day wouldn't get any weirder.
"Okay so should we leave now?" I asked the guys.
"Haha yeah totally." Kendall said and left my room. He poked his head back in.
"Are you guys coming or what?" Kendall asked.
"Of course we are buddy!" Carlos said and ran out the door and straight into Kendall.
"What the hell are you doing Carlos? Get the hell off me!" Kendall shouted.
"Oops sorry. It was an accident." Carlos said getting off Kendall.
"Well watch where you're going next time." Kendall said rubbing his shoulder.
James and Logan were laughing. I would have been if it weren't for me freaking out on the inside. The same thing had happened in my dream. It was starting to scare me.
"Guys stop laughing. It's not funny!" Kendall said.
"Yeah you guys are so rude." I said.
"Jamie, are you okay? You normally laugh when something like that happens." James said.
"Yeah I'm fine. Let's just get outta here." I said and walked out of my room.
"Okay so where are we going?" Logan asked getting in the driver's seat.
"Let's go to the park and get corndogs!" Carlos shouted and swung his arm out. He hit me right in the face.
"Ouch! Carlos that hurt! Watch what you're doing!" I screamed and hit him on the arm.
"Okay we're going to the park!" James said and high fived Carlos.
Once we arrived at the park Carlos ran over to the corndog stand. I remembered my comment about him being Most Likely to Marry a Corndog in middle school and decided not to bring it up.
"Guys! Who is that?" Kendall asked pointing to the creepy looking guy headed straight for Carlos.
My head was spinning. This wasn't happening. I was freaking out. I was really hoping nothing else like my dream was going to happen.
"Don't worry about it. He's not gonna hurt Carlitos." I told the guys.
"How do you know that?" Logan asked me.
"There are some things that I just know. Please trust me on this. The person he's looking for isn't Carlos." I said.
The guys just gave me a weird stare. They probably thought I was insane. It didn't matter. All I knew was that I was desperately hoping that he wasn't looking for his daughter. I really hoped he didn't have one. If he did, I really hoped we didn't know her.
"Hey guys! What's going on?" Carlos came back and gave us each a corndog.
"Nothing much. But Jamie is being really weird. This guy was coming towards you and it looked like he wanted to kidnap you. For some reason Jam Jam knew he wouldn't." James said giving me a strange look.
"Let's just get over that shall we?" Carlos said.
"Yeah let's just have some fun!" Kendall shouted and threw me over his shoulder.
"Put me down! You know I hate this!" I yelled at Kendall.
"Okay fine." Kendall said as he put me down.
"Jam Jam!" I heard a voice shout!
Next thing I know my best friend Jemma was running at me. She ran into me and I fell in the grass. She gave me a bear hug.
"OMG Jem! Can you not plow me into the ground?" I laughed.
"No! It's so much fun!" She said.
"Whatever. Just go kiss your boyfriend already." I said.
"Well if you say so!" Jem said and kissed James.
"You guys are so cute together!" I told them.
I looked at Logan. He seemed to be looking for something…or someone. I had this bad feeling inside. I really hoped it was just from the corndog I just ate, and Kendall throwing me over his shoulder.
"Logie!" A girl came up and kissed Logan.
My mouth dropped open. I was really hoping that this wasn't who I thought it was. She turned around. My eyes got wide.
"Hey everyone. I'd like you to meet my new girlfriend Aileen." Logan said and put his arm around her.
"Oh shit." I whispered.
I was scared for my life. So far this dream was turning into a reality, and I didn't want to face it. Things may be a little different, but they were happening almost the same way they were before. All I knew was that we were in big trouble. Aileen didn't hate me, but I knew her father was after her. That means he would be after us as well. We had to stop this before things got too ugly. This time I would make sure everyone survived.
