Chapter 6: "Deep Thoughts"
The clock ticked just pas it's 12:00 mark.
Spongebob lay in bed, wide awake, with his eyes locked on the ceiling. Sleep wouldn't come, no matter how desperately he beckoned it. Gary snored, peacefully.
For some reason, Sandy kept crossing Spongebob's mind. And it was a strange picture...derived from a dream he'd encountered a few nights back:
She sat alone, at her picnic table, clad in her usual purple-and-green outfit. Tense and frightening silence gripped at the air, and Spongebob sensed his own presence, sneaking in through the front door. Sandy would then turn around, anger flaring her countenance. He'd consider turning back, but push himself onward. She'd charge at him, with the obvious intention of either murdering or hospitalizing him. Before she could reach him, though, he'd seize her by the shoulders, scream "Please forgive me!" and... that's where the vision dissipated.
That night, he'd woken up trembling and afraid.
Now, a few nights later, it was more intriguing than frightening, and his mind kept filling in the blank part. Did she get him...and tear him limb from limb? Or did he get her? Did someone interfere? Or what!?
As questions probed his mind, and midnight turned to morning, Spongebob was finally able to slip into the relieving stillness of repose.

So...yes, it's a dream sequence...kinda. I actually suggested a friend do this, and she did and it turned out rather beautifully! Well, she did something totally different, and from Sandy's POV instead of Spongebob's. So...feedback! REVIEW! I wanna know what you think! Love ya all ;-)

UPDATE
Alright, I said I wasn't going to update until after I'd moved, but...Well, after about six months and we haven't sold this house or bought a new one, I'm kinda wanting to move the story on. So, I'll type it in the computer! It'll be a bit different than the way I had it going in the notebook, but hey, enjoy anyway!! :D Don't forget to review!
