We're Under Attack!

“Hmm?” I said, faking drowisness. “Did you say somethin?”

“Yeah. You said you had to wait for me. And I said I was right here.” He looked at me questioningly.

“Did I?” I layered my voice with innocence. “Musta been dreaming..”

“Yeah, yeah I guess you were.” The faker mumbled.

Good. He looks like he believes me. I relaxed, but made sure my mind was guarded from his. “I think I’m going to go lay down.”

I stood up and walked over to the only bed. The bed I’d have to share with this imposter again tonight. I sighed as I climbed into bed in yesterday’s clothes. Falling right asleep, I didn’t dream.

Sometime in the middle of the night a loud clanging sound went off. I heard people screaming and yelling. I stood up groggily to look around. “B..Blake?” I called.

“Aea! Your up. Good. We’re under attack. I need to get you to safety.” ‘Blake’ said grabbing my hand.

“But.. Blake.. You told me I could help. You promised you’d let me do something!” Just take me outside so I can see my Blake.
