Chapter 3

Light was pouring through the window and my skin as if it was on fire. My body felt numb, and didn't want to move. My eyes watered trying to stay open and my head felt dizzy as well. After a few seconds I pulled the covers to the side and pulled all my strength into shifting my legs over the side of my bed. I stood up feeling light headed as I tried to keep my balance. I took one step and the next thing I knew I was lying face down on the cold floor.

"You should be more careful," the voice was ominous and echoed throughout the entire room. I lifted myself up on my shaky arms and looked behind me. The blanket was wrapped around my ankle. I sat up and untangled myself. Standing up I started walking towards the door, my legs felt like Jello and my breath was shallow. When I finally opened the door, Matt flew to the top of the door frame and hung from it.

"Good morning Matt," I said looking up and giving him a weak smile.

As I started to walk into the hallway I heard the voice again coming from behind me.

"Good morning," I turned around but no one was there.

'I must be going crazy,' I thought to myself. As I continued walking down the hallway the house was bright and the sun was shining through the curtains. I carefully and slowly make my way to the kitchen where everyone except Charles, who was cooking, was sitting. I sat down folding my arms on the table, using them as a pillow. My eyes felt heavy but I forced them open.

"You can't be that tired ," Charles said.

"Why ..." I couldn't help but yawn, "what time is it?" I asked, giving up and closing my eyes. I took a deep breath and relaxed, my pajamas felt smooth against my skin as I shuffled in my chair.

"It's already one O'clock," he replied.

"Oh," I yawned again and everything was quiet until something in me finally snapped. "What!" I threw my head up so fast that everything turned red, as blood rushed to my head. I looked down at what I was wearing, finally realizing that I was in my pajamas. Then looking at everyone else , they were in their normal clothes.

I looked towards the clock that was hanging on the wall, praying that my uncle was wrong, he wasn't. I slammed my head against the table and let my arms dangle at my side.

"How could I have slept so long? I thought I went to bed early," I mumbled to myself. My mind was filling with questions as I tried to remember what had happened last night. 'Come on remember! REMEMBER!' I started to feel dizzy, and gave up, 'I CAN"T BELIEVE I CAN'T REMEBER!' I felt like I should be ramming my head into the wall for forgetting something that happened just last night, I never thought I was that forgetful.

"You shouldn't worry about it," Adam said in a calm tone, I looked up at him as he said and wasn't even looking at me. "You should get some more rest though, you still look tired." I'm not sure how I looked right now but I felt awful.

There was a small clank sound and I lifted my head to see a small plate of food had been placed in front of me by my uncle, who stood at my side smiling.

"You should eat something before we leave," he said still smiling down at me. I lifted the rest of my body so I was sitting upright in my seat.

"Where are we going?" I asked picking at my scrambled eggs.

"You don't remember?" Val replied giving me a confused look. I shook my head then took a bite of my eggs. "In about half an hour we'll be heading to Grandma Elizabeth's house".

I looked back down at my plate letting my lips curl into a small smile as I thought about Grandma Elizabeth. She was from my dad side of the family and to me she was a big part of my life. When Adam and I were younger and my parents were alive we would visit her often. Occasionally we would sleep over when we lost track of time and it was to late to start driving home. There are far to many memories in that house for one person to count.

After breakfast, um, lunch, I headed upstairs to change clothes and pack before leaving. When I got my room I climbed on to my bed, closed the curtains, preventing light for further entering my room. Light still seeped through the curtains but it's better then it was before. I went over to my bureau grabbing a black long sleeve turtle neck and a pair of my black jeans.

I went into my bathroom and looked into the mirror. My skin looked pasty and I could barely keep my eyes open. All together I looked better then I felt. I stepped out of the bathroom tying my hair back, and then went to lie down on my bed. I closed my eyes and my body seemed to sink down into my sheets, down through my mattress and down through the floor. My body felt heavy and I felt completely dead, not wanting to move. Taking in a deep breath, I let out a long sigh before forcing my body to sit up and getting swinging my legs over the side the bed.

Matt flew over to my side and I looked down at him as he got closer to me. I finally scooped him up in my hands then placed him on my lap, using my index finger to softly pet him on the head. I looked down at him, his eyes large and glassy. My gaze travel to the ceiling, then let out a sigh trying to block out the world around me.

"What's wrong?" I looked around searching for the voice that comes from god knows where.

"Nothings wrong," my voice dragging slightly. 'I must be going crazy to be answering a random voice,' I thought to myself, letting out another sigh. I stood up still carrying Matt in my hands and grabbed my bag for the weekend at Grandma Elisabeth's house, something I was looking forward too.
