Chapter 24 Home

• Lynn's eyes slowly fell open as the blurry sight of her ceiling cleared up, she laid still for a moment, spaced out while the alarm buzzed off. Sitting up groggily with her hair having a scattered mind of its own, she stretched for the alarm and pressed the button at the top as the ringing stopped. Letting out a soft sigh, she attempted to lay back down as her mind wasn't in link with her body yet but she stopped when the memories of the night flooded in. Her eyes widened as a wave of embarrassment filled her.
• "Ugh, no way!" She dragged with a soft groan as she ran her hands over her face. She couldn't believe she had bawled out her eyes like a kid over a dream. It wasn't like her.
• Lynn looked to her side to see the empty space on her bed. She hadn't noticed when her mom got up. The dream surfed in and she stared at her hands. She remembered how she had felt when she woke up after the dream, how shaky her hands and body had gone and how she'd been swallowed up by fear like she had never before, but now it felt like it had never happened. She wasn't scared even when she remembers how she had seen someone's heart ripped out. Just like her mom had said, it was just a nightmare.
