~*Dream Continued*~
^I landed, not too lightly, on a hard, stone floor. there was a boy standing in front of me. he

smiled.
"well, I was waiting for you."
"who exactly are you?"
"me? no one. no one who matters. just some unlucky kid. much like that Potter kid."
I saw why he thought Harry to be unlucky. something told me I'd seen this guy before. I felt like I was never going to remember anything and never did. then, Selph, Shelby and Erica walked in, past me, and completely ignoring me.
"Erica? Shelby? Selph?" they walked over to the mysterious boy.
"hey Matt." Erica waved.
"sup Matt?" Shelby smiled.
"hello Matt." the three of them sat down on some bleachers I hadn't noticed before.
"what we doin today Matt?" Selph asked.
"well, see this little lady who's dropped into our little net? well, we have a new friend." the four of them looked at me. Shelby, Erica and Selph all looked at me for a few seconds, and a flash of recognition crossed their faces and was gone. they grinned.
"what are we gonna do first?"
"who is she?"
"what importance does she have?"
"what are we gonna do to her first?"
"now what?"
"are you sure?"
"who is she?"
"where did she come from?"
"Maaaaatt!" the voices dimmed, and the room and the world again, swirled into a black pit.^
"KAAAAAAAAY!" Erica shouted in my ear. I jerked awake.
"wha?" I asked stupidly.
"somethin wrong? you were like frozen or something." Shelby stood next to her. It wasn't a dream. it was the next day, a Saturday. I got up wearily, got dressed and went down to the Great Hall for breakfast.
Selph was waiting in the doorway, looking nervous. she turned and saw me as I walked towards the Hall. she ran to me.
"what happened! Shelby and Erica told me what was going on, but what happened?"
"bad dream, that's all." I walked into the Hall, the three girls following me. Selph sat down next to me at the table, as well as Shelby and Erica.
"no, what really happened? I wanna know. not because I what the whole frickin school to know, but because I'm your sister. I want to know. Besides..." she leaned in to whisper in my ear. "you know I interpret dreams. maybe I'll know what it means." then she leaned back, stared at me for a few seconds, then left to go talk to her Ravenclaw friends.
I ate my toast in my own ball of silence. I mentally thanked Shelby and Erica for not asking any questions.
that day flew by, but the dream still lingered in the back of my mind. at the end of the day, I went to Selph right before she went back to the Ravenclaw common room.
I took a deep breath.
"alright, I'll tell you the dream and you tell me what it means." she smiled. she loved interpreting people's dreams. we found a room, and sat on the dusty floor. she looked at me for a long time. finally, the silence was broken.
"alright, let's hear it." I told her the dream from start to finish. then she stared at me for another long silence that seemed to last forever.
"well...that will take some time and research." I let out a depressed sigh. that meant that she couldn't tell me today. "but," I looked up. "as soon as I figure it out, I will write a note, or tell you right away. alright?" I thought for a second.
"alright."
we both went back to our common rooms, unnoticed. that night, the dream repeated itself.

^"hello Kay, just the person I wanted to see. now, tell me about yourself. what are you like?"
I stared up at the boy called Matt. he had black hair, spiked, and sea blue eyes. if he hadn't been haunting my dreams for weeks now, I think I could grow to like him.
"me? what am I like? oh, I'm I dunno. just a regular witch I guess."
"wrong. you're not."
"wonderful news." I said sarcastically, rolling my eyes "why do you keep haunting my dreams?"
"oh, I wouldn't call it 'haunting' just, toying with your imagination."
"would you cut it out?"
"no."
"why do you do it?"
"it's fun for me and you have a very interesting way of thinking about things."
"wooptie do. like I care. my friends are concerned for me, and I don't like it."
"what, these friends?" Shelby, Erica, and Selph walked in.
"yes. why are they here?"
"they aren't your friends. you only think so."
"what about Selph! she's my sister!"
"not all sisters are friends, dear sis." Selph smirked. I hated when she does that.
"but-but-but-what did I ever do to you!"
"exist."
"I can't help that!"
"well, then you were born into a hated family. too bad for you. till next time." he smiled and the dream faded.^
