Chapter 1
Emma woke up from the dream, sticky sweat running down her face, traveling down the side of her face. She wiped it away with the back of her hand, the sound of her breathing, and the sound of her heart beating surrounded the room. She dreamt this dream ever since that night. Ever since it happened to her she had nightmares. Nightmares about her father. Sometimes she had nightmares that he will come back for her. Other times she had good dreams about the angel who saved her.
Emma removed the blanket off of her and went towards the bathroom. Her sisters were sleeping along with her foster-mother. Emma walked into the bathroom and switched the light on. She closed the bathroom door and looked in the mirror, examining herself with bloodshot green eyes.
She was falling apart. She was afraid to sleep. Every time she went to sleep, she would have horrible nightmares of her father trying to kill her. The dreams felt as if she was actually reliving the night of the incident. Everything felt real. The feeling she felt. The pain she felt. The touches she felt. Everything. It all did.
Emma turned the sink on. Clear cold water sprayed out of the faucet, spraying down in the wint sink. She adjusted the water to warm, and bent down, cupping the warm water with both of her hands. She splashed the warm water on her pale face. She felt eyes burn on the back of her neck and she turned around with the clear warm water dripping from her face. Her breathing was faster and her heart was beating against her chest, like a beating drum.
No one was there. No one was behind her watching her. Emma brought a shaky hand up to her pale face and wiped away the excess water. I have officially gone crazy. She thought to herself.
Emma took another deep breath and turned around back to the mirror. She grabbed the dark blue towel that was hanging from the rail, and patted her face softly from the dry towel, soaking up the water. She removed the towel from her face and saw her father behind her, holding the large knife with her blood covered on it. Dark fresh red blood. Blood covered his clothes, and the wound that she made with a razor was still fresh on his face. He looked like the night he killed her. He looked like it and Emma screamed.
"You shall die!" he screamed at her. "It is now my mission to kill you before she does! Before you change everything!" he yelled.
Before Emma could do anything, she felt a sharp painful sting at her chest and she looked down at her chest, a huge wooden handle sticking out of her. Emma's eyes were filled with unshed tears. Blood slowly traveled out of the wound and down her purple pajamas.
Emma looked up at her father and saw the sinister look he was giving her and then he-
"Emma," Allison spoke softly, nudging her sister at the arm to wake her up.
"No!" Emma screamed in fear. "Please! Don't!"
Allison slapped her sister's cheek softly, trying her best to wake her sister up. "Emma, wake up!" she said, raising her voice high enough so only Emma would be able to hear, not wanting to wake her sister Katie or her foster-mother.
"It's just a dream," Allison said, patting her sister's face softly again. "So, wake up!"
Emma turned in her side, screaming as if her life depended on it and Allison groaned when she heard the angry footsteps that were coming down the hall, and Allison knew that Emma woke up Colleen... again.
The white door opened and Allison looked up to see their foster-mother, Colleen looking in the room. She wore gray sweatpants and an old navy blue shirt, with her dark blonde hair in a messy bun. She place a hand on her hip and walked more in the room and examined everything.
"What the hell is going on here?" Colleen asked and looked at Allison.
Allison gave a sheepish smile and looked at her sister and then looked back up at her foster-mother. "She's having another nightmare.
Colleen sighed and rolled her eyes and left her room. Allison furrowed her eyebrows and smiled when she heard Colleen muttered, "Teenagers and their nightmares, waking you up at 5 in the morning."
Allison looked up at Emma again and smacked her harder against the face, only to have Emma scream more. Allison pouted. "Emma, wake up now or I am going to borrow that cute dress you haven't worn since three months."
Emma just responded by another scream and Allison sighed in frustration. "Just wake up, nightmares are too overrated."
Allison crossed her arms and heard Colleen's footsteps again. Colleen arrived in the room, with a cup of cold water in her right hand. Allison shook her head and held her hands out to Colleen, in a stopping pose.
"Col, that's not a good idea. She will be very angry. Are you prepared to face the wrath of Emma Anne McKay when she wakes up? She looks innocent now with her hair flowing over her shoulders, and looking all Juliet like, but when she wakes up, she will be ugly."
Colleen just rolled her eyes. "I'm sure it won't be that bad. Emma loves me."
Allison gave out a laugh. "Alright, Colleen," Allison said. "Enjoy having her fist coming in contact with her jaw," she said while placing her hand up to her jaw. "Trust me, I know."
Colleen shook her head and titled the clear cup a bit, pouring the ice-cold water slowly all over Emma's face and before the last drop of water hit Emma's face, she already woke up and she looked at the two people in front of her and gave them a clear. Her breathing was heavy and sweat was all over her face, combined with the cold water dripping off of her face, and she wiped the water with her right hand.
"What the hell?" she asked. "Why would you do that?" she asked, glaring at her younger sister Allison.
Allison shook her head. "I didn't do it," she said like a child and pointed towards a nervous smiling Colleen. "She did."
Emma turned her glare at Collen. "Colleen," she spoke. "Why would you do that?" she repeated angrily and wiped her face again.
"You were having a nightmare again, Emma," Colleen said, sitting at the end of Emma's bed.
"So you splash water all over me? Thank you," she said, her voice dripping with sarcastic. "Highlight of my day, Colleen."
Allison looked down at Colleen and offered her a warm smile. "Colleen," she spoke and Colleen looked up, meeting Allison's light brown eyes, that looked like a beautiful caramel, with little tints of green in it. Her eyes were truly extraordinary.
"Do you mind if I talk to my sister?" she asked and Colleen shook her head. "Alone?" she added.
Colleen sighed and nodded her head. She stood up from her bed.
"Next time you wake me up, Col, scream in my ear or something that doesn't involve me getting soaked and wet," Emma said.
Colleen rolled her eyes. "It's not my fault you're a heavy sleeper, Em," she walked to the bedroom door, but before she walked out of the bedroom, she turned to look at the two little, McKay sister's. "We're going out for breakfast, so be ready. I have a surprise for you guys," Colleen said and walked out of the room, but didn't close the door.
"Can we at least have the impression of privacy?" Allison sighed, asking. Colleen appeared at the door frame and said, "Fine, but I am still listening." Colleen said and closed the door shut. Allison turned to look at Emma and gave her a warm smile.
"Do you want to talk about it Em?" Allison asked softly, sitting at the foot of the bed.
Emma shrugged her shoulders and laid back down on her bed and closed her eyes shut, hiding her green eyes from the world. She was tired. She hadn't been sleeping lately, but every time she closed her eyes, she saw her father's face.
"Come on Em. Let's talk about it. You can tell me anything," Allison encouraged and Emma opened her eyes and sat up, meeting her sister's eyes. Emma took a deep breath and nodded her head. "I dreamt of the night it happened. I dreamt of everything," Emma said, and Allison nodded her head to show that she was listening.
Emma was quiet for a moment and Allison was losing her patience. "And?" she asked and looked at Emma.
"And then I woke up in the dream and Dad was here trying to kill me," Emma continued.
"So you had a dream inside a dream?" Allison asked. "So epic."
Emma rolled her eyes, but there was a small smile on her lips. "You are so not getting the point," she said.
Allison smiled. "I know, but it made you smile, didn't it?" she asked and Emma just nodded her head. When Emma was too quiet, Allison went beside Emma and wrap her arm around her sister and rubbed her arms soothingly up and down. "I know it's hard, Em. I know. I'm so sorry it happened to you. I should have never happened to you," she said with regret in her voice, wishing that she was there that night to protect her sister.
"No," Emma said. "it's fine, really. I'm fine," she lied. "I'm just happy you and Katie weren't there. I would have died if anything happened to you too."
Allison took a deep breath and nodded her head. "Okay, enough with the depressing talk. Let's change the subject."
Emma just gave a small smile and placed her head on her sister's shoulder.
"So," Allison began. "Do you remember Meredith Fell?" she asked. "Mom's best friend?"
Emma nodded her head. "Of course I remember Meredith. Her and mom were like sisters."
Allison smiled and nodded. "Yes, well I was listening on the phone and-"
"Al, were you snooping?" Emma asked.
Allison gave a smile. "Maybe, anyway, she is going to adopt us!"
Emma smiled and removed her head from her sisters shoulders. "Really?" she asked. "Someone is going to take us?"
Allison nodded her head and before she could say anything else, Colleen yelled from the hallway.
"Hey!" she said. "I knew you were listening!"
Emma and Allison gave a little laugh and Emma hugged her sister. "Thank, Al," she said and Allison nodded her head and hugged her sister back. "I know. I'm amazing."
Emma pulled away and shook her head. "Nope, you are arrogant, but you are loved. Now, let's get ready, even though we already know the surprise. I still want chocolate chip pancakes."
Allison got off of Emma's bed and headed towards her room. Emma took a deep breath to prepare herself for today. She knew that when she would move in with Meredith, things would be different, but she just had this feeling in her that her life will change dramatically. She wasn't sure if it would change for the better or for the worse, but she shook her mind, blocking the thoughts out. She wasn't going to think about it today. Today she was going to be a normal 17-year-old girl and celebrate that her and her sisters were finally going to go a real home.
