Sweet Dreams
Ch.2 The Dead Kid.
"Allyson!" Pouge yelled at me from the other side of my bedroom door. I was pushing all my weight on it so he couldn't get in. It wasn't really working since he kept unlocking it with his power.
"STOP DAMN IT!" I screamed and right then the other side of the door was quiet.
"Can we just talk?" he asked calm and quietly and I huffed.
"You promise not to yell?" I asked and I knew he was going to get mad since I used the word "promise".
"Fine, I promise. Fuck!" he let it all out which made me giggle. So I unlocked the door and opened it slowly.
"Where do you want to do this?" I asked him and he gestured towards the stairs. My room had its own flight of stairs off the hallway one of my favorite things about this house.
"What's going on with you and Tyler?" he asked as we both sat down.
"We've kind of been seeing each other," I told him shyly not knowing how he was going too reacted.
"You've got to kidding me?" he said to himself while putting his hands on his face before pushing them through his long hair. "For how long?" he asked and I had to think about it.
"Since my birthday," I let on with the truth.
"What!" he exclaimed before his phone rang and he answered it angrily. "No, not you," I heard him say. I could tell it was Kate by the way he tensed up. "I've got to go," he told me while hanging up.
"Who are you talking to?" I asked and he scoffed.
"You," he told me and I nodded.
"Kate needs to see me. This conversation will continue some other time." he let on but right when he hit the last step I remembered.
"Pouge!" I kind of yelled which made him stop in his tracks and turn around.
"What?" he asked worried and I took a deep breath.
"I've been having these dreams-" I started and he cut me off.
"Later, baby sis," he told me before walking off. "I'll be at the dorms if you need me!"
"Blood, sweat, and tears," I could hear someone saying over and over again. I tossed in turned in my bed, on my stomach then on my back. On my left side on my right side, over and over again, all night long. "Blood, sweat, and tears," kept playing over and over. Then these flashes, the reddest blood I had ever seen just running down a door. Wait! Not just any door. Carson's door? Wait no! Then blood curdling screams came out of nowhere. I jumped up in my bed and pulled one of the pillows to my chest. I needed something to drink. The clock said 5:15 am.
When I left my room my house seemed more quiet than usual. You parents being out of the country for a month can do that. Why did Pouge have to go to the dorms? As I made my way down the creaky old stairs I got a chill down my spin. I felt as if someone was watching me. I hate this house, all the old shit from way back when really got to you when you were home alone in a huge mansion. I guess that's the only price of old money eh?
As I made my way to the kitchen quietly I heard something fall behind me. I stopped dead in my tracks and had a thought. Why didn't I turn on any lights? Wow I'm smart; I started walking more quickly before a hand touched my shoulder. The skinny fingers gripped my shoulders more tightly and I took my training into effect. I grabbed the persons hand and put them on there ass. But what I wasn't excepting was to get thrown down myself.
"Ally!" Carson's voice rang through my ears.
"What are you doing here?" I asked her while rubbing my head.
"I got bored at the dorms by myself." she told me while offering me a hand to get up.
"You okay?" she asked while looking at me strange.
"Why wouldn't I?" I asked confused.
"You're really pale Hun," she concretely informed me.
"I am?" I asked confused while rushing to the bathroom by the kitchen.
When I looked in the mirror my brown hair was tasseled and kind of damp. My face was paper white. What the fuck was going on? I needed to tell someone but not Carson not after what I saw tonight.
"Hey do me a favor?" I asked and she nodded yes. "Sleep at the dorms," I told her paranoid.
"Why?" she asked as we walked to the kitchen.
"Just… please do it?" I asked while getting a bottle of cold water out of the fridge.
"Fine!" she told me like she was talking to her mother. "So did Tyler spend the night or something?" she asked and I rolled my eyes.
"What? No!" I cleared up the situation before drinking almost half my water.
"Whatever, lets go get some sleep tonight we party!" she announced I just wasn't up for party after the dreams I had.
Glass seemed to shatter just as I closed my eyes. Lights zoomed around as if coming from 10 flashlights at the same time. It was a car window smashed, and inside was a limp lifeless body. I snapped my eyes opened to find Reid's face very close to mine. I sat up quickly.
"What the fuck?" I asked while trying to get my balance after getting up so fast I got kinda dizzy.
"Carson, wanted me to wake you up. You know you were kinda screaming in your sleep." he told me before laughing, "thinking about baby boy, were you?" he said while leaving. I just rolled my eyes got out of bed and put some clothes on quick. A green Abercrombie and Fitch tank top, and some Hollister shorts, and pulling on my fuzzy slipper boots. When I got downstairs everyone was here. All four sons and the 2 daughters at the same kitchen table.
"Morning," Everyone said when they saw me. They had already started eating; the only free spot was by Tyler shocker. Pouge was sitting at the head of the table with Carson on his left and Reid on her left and Caleb at the head of the Table. So I sat down between Tyler and Caleb and watched everyone eat.
"Why are we here?" Reid asked looking to Caleb.
"The dead kid, at the dells?" he told Reid but to me it seemed like more of a question.
"What?" I asked and Carson sighed.
"They found someone dead in there car last night," she finished before taking a drink of her orange juice.
"That's horrible," I said while taking a bite out of my bacon.
"They were found in their car, with the doors locked." Pouge spoke and he sounded upset.
"Overdose?" I asked and everyone was quiet.
"What are you getting at?" Reid asked and I just noticed that Pouge and Caleb were staring him down.
"Nothing," Caleb told him while looking away and eating.
"So about last night," Pouge said to me while stuffing a pancake in his mouth.
"NO!" I mouthed to him over and over again while Tyler was eating.
"What?" he asked me and I gestured for him to cut it out. "Tyler!" he said while getting his attention.
"Yeah?" Tyler said while reaching for his drink.
"She told me," Pouge told him while gesturing towards me.
"And…" Tyler trailed off.
"And, I'm fine with it." Pouge fake smiled before stabbing his pancake, so we all know he isn't fine with it.
"So, what are we doing today?" I asked and everyone shrugged.
"I have to run errands for mom." Caleb said while looking at Carson.
"Fine, I will come." she told him in a not so happy voice. "You done? Great," she said while taking his plate while he was still eating.
"Thank you!" he told her sarcastically.
We all cleaned up and went out separate ways. I took a shower and got ready for the day. I was going to be running errands with Caleb and Carson. I just noticed that Pouge never takes me and Carson places, only Caleb. Huh?
