Tumblr Academy reimagined

I tensed up in my sleep, then nightmares were starting up again.

I looked down at her, ready to wake her at any given moment.

I was about to start screaming.

I jostled her a bit in my arms. "Olivia!" I called.

I snapped awake, "S-Sorry."

"It's fine."

I nodded a bit.

"Are you okay?"

I nodded, then shook my head, I mean I might as well be honest with these people right?

"Do you want to tell me what the dream was about?"

"Where and how I'm gonna die," I whispered.

I held her a bit closer. "It'll be okay, I promise."

I nodded slightly and started to fall asleep again, I was still exhausted.

I watched her slightly, hopefully not in a creepy way.

I fell asleep.

I continued looking for a safe place to rest.

I stayed asleep.

I felt extremely out of place as we walked and Olivia slept. I could feel my left arm aching from when one had pulled in behind me. "I hope they didn't make it any worse..." I thought, not realizing I'd spoken aloud.

"What?" I turned around to look at him.

I quickly straitened up and self consciously let go of my arm. "'What' what?"

"Did you say something?"

I stopped. Had I? Maybe I'd thought out loud... "What did you hear?" I asked nervously, knowing how suspicious the question sounded.

"Uh, 'hope' and 'making worse.' That's about it."

I sighed, not knowing what to say to cover myself. "Uh, that sounds like what I'd been thinking. I must have accidentally spoken out loud. Oops," I laughed nervously.
((Omg, I'm trying to have things I've hinted at and stuff get revealed here but your guy is being too nice and not pressing at anything he hears!))

I raised a brow (no, I didn't resemble Peter Pan while doing it, I hope) and stared at him. "Alright, that was the worse lie I've ever heard, and I've heard a lot, so spill the beans."
