Chapter 3
"nnie, Annie!"
I was jolted out of my sleep by a voice shouting my name and rough shaking. I looked up at my best friend and occasional mother hen blankly.
"What?" I whined crossly.
She looked down at me unsympathetically, brushing her brown hair over her shoulder absently.
"School ended twenty minutes ago, get your lazy ass up. I wanted to be home already," she said flatly.
My eyes widened as I looked at the clock.
"Shit! Why didn't anyone wake me up?!" I screeched, jumping up and shoving my paper into my bag haphazardly.
Nicki sighed as she began to help me, "what do you think I've been trying to do the last half hour? The teachers have given up on waking you since you do well on all your homework and tests, but that leaves me to wake you," she said in faint amusement.
I smiled at her sheepishly as I swung my bag over my shoulder and followed her out the door, into the hall, and out the door.
I shivered as the cold blew through my thin coat and I huddled down.
We walked in silence for a few minutes before Nicki spoke up, "anything you wanna tell me about?" She asked softly, looking over at me.
"What do you mean?" I asked, confused and nervous.
Nicki looked xat me seriously, "you've been distracted lately, and you've looked tired the past week too," she said.
"I'm fine, just been having a hard xtime sleeping at night, keep having wierd dreams," I said evasively, hoping she'd let it go.
She eyed me for a long moment before nodding and saying "well, since class time seems the only time you can sleep, I guess I'll keep taking notes for you," she teased.
I smiled, grateful she hadn't pressed.
After I said goodbye and entered my dark apartment, I went into my bedroom and opened the dresser drawers, pulling out vthe fake bottom. I carefully pulled a worn box out and opened it, revealing the strange necklace. Carrying it to my bed I sat down and studied it suspiciously.
"OK, time to find out for what happened was real, or a crazy dream," I mumbled, slipping it carefully over m-my head and letting it fall against my shirt. When nothing happened I released a sigh, ignoring the tiny feeling of disappointment as I flipped back onto my bed.
I lifted it up and stared at it for a moment before shrugging,"oh well, at least vits pretty," I said, tucking it under my shirt.
The instant it touched my skin, my eyes widened as a tear opened in front of me.
"Oh shit!" I yelped as I was sucked through again.
