-Okay I decided to tell it from 3rd person, instead of how Alle sees it.
Sorry I haven't put in chapters for a while. Long into short: school sucks, homework sucks and being grounded sucks. Oh well I still have my faithful reviewers and readers. You guys rule! (I apologize; chocolate makes me hyper dizzy and I just ate aboooouuut….4 super sized bars of Hershey's!.)
Disclaimer: I don't know what I own anymore! Ahhhhhhh! Jk.

His lips were addictive. The taste of mint rushed into her mouth. His hands rubbed her back, while she ran her hand through his blonde hair. She didn't want to stop, for what would happen if she did?
All of a sudden she felt herself slipping away from the arms of Jake into the dark abysses of her mind. Falling ,Falling….for what seemed like eternity. She couldn't think, or speak for that matter, but she didn't have to scream to break the chilling silence, for in the shadows somewhere, a blood stopping cry erupted, echoing in the dreary blackness. Looking down she saw the incoming ground, the scream getting louder and louder, as though whatever was emitting the cry was doing it in her ears. The ground was more visible, getting closer and closer by the second. Her mind hurt; it felt like it was melting, her heart was exploding out of her ribcage.
The scream….so loud…so shrill ….the ground… she had forgot how close she was and didn't even have time to brace for impact when she finally realized it. THUD.

Alle awoke instantly, touching her face to make sure she wasn't still asleep. Damn, how she hated those dreams. She turned in her seat- she had slept on her side and it was now extremely uncomfortable. Shutting her eyes, she tried to fall asleep again, only to fail miserably. So she gave up and looked out the window, hoping to concentrate on something better than her frightening nightmares. Peering out the window, she watched the sun coming up on the horizon. The sky was smeared with to much color- a blend of many , kind of like crossing a rainbow with hundreds of open paint cans. And the clouds reflected this brilliance tenfold onto the earth. Now this would have been a magical sight, for some artist that loved to pour paint by the gallon all over their canvas. But for Alle, well.. She really didn't stop to enjoy it , while on the other hand, her mother popped out a camera and shot a couple photos of this rare sunrise scene. "Honey, look at that! Now that," she exclaimed turning to my dad, "is a sight to see.!"
Alle just sighed. "Yup, juuust wonderful." she quietly said sarcastically. "Okay you took you pictures. Can we go now?" Alle wanted to get on the road, not to mention that her parents didn't know she despised long road trips. To her , they were pointless.
-FLASHBACK-
"Please!" She begged her mother hopelessly. "Can we please just take an airplane there?" She was making the "big baby eyed bottom lip sticking out" face which she knew her mother couldn't say no to. But her mom had the last word. "No, Alle. This is not a discussion. We are NOT taking an airplane. Go it?" She said firmly . Whoa, for the first time in history, her mom had actually resisted "the face"! Unbelievable! Admitting defeat, Alle straightened up and pointed aimlessly at an imaginary bison, pretending to be a tourist on the road. "Now if you'll turn to your left, You can see a buffalo mating." She said sarcastically. "Mom I don't know about you but that is NOT something I intend nor ever want to see! You know how much I hate the excruciatingly long trips on the road that we take to see "Life at it's fullest". It's like watching the Discovery Channel! Yuck!" She gagged slightly at the thought of seeing such. Her mother glared at her. "Alle! Come now. You'll be asleep most of the trips, and won't even have to worry about watching us zoom in on the surrounding animals! It's just our work that we love! Is that so hard to take in?" She grumbled raising her voice with every sentence. She was right about both of those things- their work was to observe how wildlife live and operate their lifestyles. Although most times, It wasn't very pretty to see. But still the pay was incredible and they needed it to support her. And the other, yes she was asleep during all these "quick stops".
"Allright , Allright. I give up." She rambled on and didn't notice that her mom wasn't listening to her. "But when you guys stop, Do not WAKE ME UP! Please?" Her mother turned and faced her. She stared at her for a moment with half wanted sympathetic eyes . "Apologetic peace treaty accepted, kiddo!"
end flash back
Alle slumped back into her seat again, and put her earphones on once more. She turned the volume on high and shut her eyes. She sighed and reassured herself that in the end it might be worth the trip. Only a few more hours to go.
Sorry it was a bit short but I hope this will satisfy you for now my awesome readers and reviewers. Till next time!
