I grab my song notebook and start thinking of another song to write. That way, I don't have to think about the nightmare. And I think I have an idea....

I sigh before I put my pencil onto the paper.

A million thoughts in my head

Should I let my heart keep listening

'Cause up 'til now I've walked the line

Nothing lost but something missing

I can't decide

What's wrong, what's right

Which way should I go

If only I knew what my heart was telling me

Don't know what I'm feeling

Is this just a dream?

Ah oh, yeah

If only I could read the signs in front of me

I could find the way to who I'm meant to be

Ah oh, if only

If only

If only

Every step, every word

With every hour I am falling in

To something new, something brave

To someone I, I have never been

I can't decide

What's wrong, what's right

Which way should I go

If only I knew what my heart was telling me

Don't know what I'm feeling

Is this just a dream?

Ah oh, yeah

If only I could read the signs in front of me

I could find the way to who I'm meant to be

Ah oh, if only

Yeah

Am I crazy? Maybe we could happen

Yeah

Will you still be with me when the magic's all run out?

If only I knew what my heart was telling me

Don't know what I'm feeling

Is this just a dream?

Ah oh

If only I could read the signs in front of me

I could find the way to who I'm meant to be

Ah oh

If only, yeah

If only, yeah

If only, yeah

If only, yeah

If only

If only


As soon as I finish the final lyric, I hear a knock on the door.

"Come in." I say. I turn around as the door opens and see Alex. Great. This won't end well. "Um- May I help you?"

"Y-Yeah. We need to talk." He says.

"I'm sorry, do I know you?" I ask.

"Do you- Yes you know me! Alex? Your number one best friend?" 

"Mmm sorry. I don't have friends."

"Why did you change?" He asks.

"Change? This is the real me!" I say.

"Not the one I remember. The Emma I knew never turned down on anyone."

"Is this about that Patterson girl? If so, that is a completely different person!" I chuckle. 

"B-But you are Emma Patterson!"

"Again with the assumptions! I am not Patterson. I am Emma Covington!" I smile.

"Then bring her back!" Alex shouts.

"Ooh, so we're going with this offer again? Fine, I'll bring her back for you." I hold out my hand.

"You better not break this promise!"

"Alex, you're a great person. Why on earth would I do that?" I ask with a smile. He sighs and shakes my hand. His eyes widen as he feels a burn on his arm. "I believe your friend Luke has never told you. Every deal comes with a price. Anyways, I should be heading out. Bye bye!" I chuckle as I teleport out.

Well, at least my goals are being reached. Well.... almost.

Looks like I just have one more...
