Dream Journal
Lying in the hallway at school, I was talking with Melissa and Ryan when the warning bell rang. I wasn’t sure where my class was, but I stayed lying down to finish our discussion.
A man came up behind me and kicked my feet. I looked up and he told me that if I stayed down there much longer I would be late to class. His smile was very warm and he went towards his class.
I got up slowly and opened my locker. Ryan wondered who the guy was and why he cared. I shut my locker, stepped closer to him, and said that if an upperclassman wanted to talk to me, I was fine with it. And besides, he was pretty cute.
I headed to my class and had to go up a long flight of stairs. There were three other people going up the stairs towards the class too, all of us running late. I ran up the stairs as fast as I could, taking them two at a time. My textbook and notebook threatened to fall, but I managed to hang on to both of them.
The last bell rang while I was halfway up the stairs. Late, I bolted into my class. There were only three people in the seats, one of whom was the boy from the hallway. They turned to look at me.
