Pov Elise

I was back in the clothes I wore in my dream from last night. I was alone in a room that looked a lot like my room in the house. My room looked different. It looked like it was from ninety years ago. I looked around and found a mirror. I still looked like myself, maybe this is just because it is my dream. A knock on the door stopped me from thinking about it much. I opened the door and there stood Henry. We went to a restaurant. I think we were on a date, but I'm not sure. The restaurant looked classy and I don't know how a nineteen year old guy is going to pay for it. I wasn't going to ask how. I thought about asking, but that would be weird. Besides, I'm still in a dream where my mouth probably won't coöperate with my mind. Somehow, the dream skipped dinner and he was walking me home.

"I'll see you later ms Harper" he said in a charming but yet still teasing way.

"see you later mr Angelo" I said in the same way.

After that I woke up. It is weird that I am having these dreams, but unless this Henry and Elizabeth are real I don't have to worry about them. Maybe I should write the dreams down in a notebook. I get out of bed and search for a notebook I'm not using. After I find one I write both dreams down.

I decided that today I would go to the attic since I couldn't do it yesterday. I open the door and walk up the stairs. They are a bit creaky and old. I look around and see some old stuff that is not interesting. As I continue to look around a little chest catches my eyes. It has a lock but I try to open it anyway. Just my luck, it is locked and I don't see a key. I searched for over half an our when I gave up. I looked for other interesting things but found nothing. I took the chest, went back to my room and put it on my nightstand. I will fing a way to open it and won't give up until I know what's inside. Who knows, maybe I'll find the key somewhere.

I was thinking of ways to open the chest when I get a text from my best friend back in Embotown. Her name is Emily and she's the best friend I could ever wish for.

Emily: You'll never guess what I have to tell you

U: What?

Emily: i ran into this super hot guy and he gave me his number!!!

U: omg and did u text him?

Emily: yes. He's sooo nice
So anything happened with you?

U: nothing really but I've been having weird dreams about some guy. He's very romantic though

Emily: is he hot?

U: yes...

Emily: you know your mind can't come up with new faces right? so you must have seen him somewhere. search for him

U: no

Emily: come on, I want to what he looks like :(

U: I'd rather search for a way to open the box

Emily: box?

U: yes. I found a box, but it won't open

Emily: tell me when you get it open, 'cause knowing you...

U: I know

We talk a little longer and before I know it it's almost 1 a.m. I'll find a way to open the box tomorrow.

When I wake up I see that I am late. I slept trough my alarm and it was the first day in a new school. 'Good job Elise' I thought to myself. I get ready as quickly as I can. I got to school just on time to get my schedule and get to my first class of the day. I found the classroom and went in. Luckily the class didn't start yet and I didn't have to introduce myself. I hate having to introduce myself to people, especially when it's in front of a class and you have to tell them interesting facts about yourself.

Nothing happened and soon it was lunch. Yay half of the day was over already. I sit down at an empty table. I hadn't made friends yet, but I didn't mind since it was my first day. Suddenly someone sat down at the table with me.

"Hy I'm Cassie, you must be the new girl. You don't mind if I sit here do you?" she said in a happy tone.

"yep, that's me. I'm Elise and no I don't mind." I answered.

We talked for the rest of lunch and I can see us becoming friends really fast. On our way to class she suddenly asks me: "you live in that old house right on the corner right?"

"yeah, why?" I asked her.

"Well... nevermind, it's nothing" she says.

"Please tell me, I won't get mad or something like that." I tried to get her to tell me what it was.

"It's stupid but... There is a rumor and people think it's haunted. Is that true? I mean, do weird things happen?" she asks

"Not really. My mom's vase broke out of nowhere, but that is the only 'weird' thing that happened. I'll tell you when something else happens." I replied.

She didn't get time to reply, because the bell interupted her.

The day was over and I just arrived home. I went to my room to do my homework until I got distracted by the box again. It wasn't a lot of homework and since I still didn't have a key or a way to open the box, I made my homework before I went to look at it again. There was a key right next to it. Am I crazy or just blind? Because I swear it wasn't there before this morning. Maybe this house is haunted and the ghost put it there. I laugh out loud at this. It's a long shot but I tried the key anyway. What surprised me was that the key worked.
