Tom Hanson sat up with a start and blinked his drowsy eyes until the chapel came into focus. He saw pretty Judy Hoffs smiling down at him, softly calling his name as she shook him by the shoulder.
"Hey sleepy head," she said, "Time to call it a day; although it looks like you already did."
Scanning the room, Tom saw that everyone else had already packed up for the day, and gone. Captain Fuller was just coming out of his office, and he called, "Happy Halloween; I'll see you tomorrow."
"Bye," Judy replied, then looking back at Tom she asked, "Are you okay? You look a little pale."
"I had the craziest dream," Tom replied, his breathing was ragged, and he could feel his heart pounding inside his chest.
"Yeah?" Judy said, with a giggle. She pulled on her denim jacket, and asked; "Are you coming over to Penhall's for his annual slasher-fest?"
"No thanks," Tom replied, giving a weak lop-sided grin. "Those movies give me nightmares."
