The Beginning part 2
I was still shaken as we sat at the dining room table. My mother placed my favorite dish of her's. Which was lasagna, it smelt so good.

But I couldn't stop thinking about what happened earlier. Hearing something like that. It had me feeling crazy. And I was seriously starting to think this getaway was not helping with nightmares. It aggravated it until I think of anything else. They're making them worse as I soon found out later that night.

After finishing my dinner, I excused myself to my bedroom, I chose the one that sat at the back house. 

Once there, I pulled my suitcase onto the bed. Taking my clothes out, I walked over to the closet. Opening it, glad to see there were hangers. Even though I didn't venture out much. I still didn't like to have any wrinkle ass clothes. Taking them all out, I headed back to the bed sitting them down. And went to work on arranging my clothes.

Lying back, yawning. My eyes felt heavy. I was just about to drift off when I heard something outside the sliding glass door. And I popped right up, stared straight at it. 

I could see the outline of someone. But not any someone, it was a man. My heart was caught in my throat as I watched the figure that stood there. 

Breathing heavily, I distinctively thought that I heard an growl. I was frozen in place, couldn't say a word as the door eased slowly open. Then I released my breath when I saw who it was.

It was him. The one from the beach. Well he was swimming in the ocean. Don't know how I knew it was him. But I just knew.

And there was something else that this reminded me of. It was like deja vu...

Oh god ! My nightmare ! And it has finally come true. Or was I dreaming ? But it felt all too real.

I wanted to scream but couldn't.

I wanted to run but was held in place by his eyes which had me entranced with their brilliant yellowish glow. 

It excited me, also scared the hell out of me. By this time, he was halfway across the room where my bed was. When I finally blinked, he stood before me giving a wide smile.

" Mine " he said just above a whisper,  I looked up at him transfixed.

Then he had his arm raised, he brought his hand towards my face. He looked at me unsure of what he was about to do. And I watched his hand, then my gaze went back to his face.

The way he looked at me. Was like something of longing. Or of what I thought was of loss, had found me after so many years. It was like his emotions were pouring on to me or into me. Then he began to caress my face lightly. 

And I couldn't believe I let him.



An minute or so passed but it felt like forever. I then heard my mother calling, I jumped back from his touch like he scalded me. And I thought to myself " Why am I letting this complete stranger touch me like this ? "

When he tried to touch me again. I smacked his hand away. Which brought a look of hurt to his features, something else.


Anger.



My mother's voice went from simply calling to shouting. And I fell back onto the bed as he left from which he came.

I felt myself being shaken wake. I slowly opened my eyes to see my mom with an worried expression.

" Cam ? Why didn't you answer me when I called out to you. And when I tried to wake you. You wouldn't wake up at all because I've been trying for almost twenty minutes ! "

Jumped right up in bed, looked around the room for him but all I saw was my mom looking worried.

Was it all a dream like so many I had before ? But it felt so real.

" Honey what's wrong ? You're scaring me ! "

I then jumped out of bed, went straight to the sliding glass door. Opening it, I checked outside to make sure he wasn't around. And I'm pretty sure I was scaring the shit out of my mom by the way she followed me trying to get me back in the house.

When she finally did, we were sitting in my room on the bed. And we were both breathing heavily. And she asked me.

" Cam ? What is going on with you ? Please tell me ? "

But I sat silent, let her words pass through my mind. Trying to make sense what happened. 

Then I knew....

Which I voiced out loud.

" He's coming for me mom. "

Looking confused she asked " Who ? "


" The guy from my dreams, " I told her wrapping my arms around myself.



















I'm finally sorry for the delay. Hope everyone enjoyed this chapter. And enjoy the holidays that's coming up. ❤💜❤💜
