Rosayn's eyes fluttered open, she was looking up at a ceiling with white rectangles, and a bright light blaring down at her.

"Oh my gosh! Rosalyn! You're awake!" Exclaimed a familiar male voice, and the face of that male blocked the blaring light from giving her a headache.

"Luke." Rosalyn smiled, "what happened? Where am I?" She questioned.

Luke looked at her with worry, "uh, Rosalyn, you and your parents were in a car accident on the way home from picking you up from school." Luke informed, "you're in the hospital.".

"So my parents are in the hospital somewhere too?" Rosalyn asked.

Luke but his lip, and shook his head, "n-no, Rosalyn... your parents aren't in the hospital." Luke said.

"So are they at home?" Rosalyn asked, I would think they would be here with me, not that I'm selfish or anything, they might be calming down my siblings.

"No, they aren't at you house either...." Luke said, he looked like he needed to say something awful, but did not want to say it.

"Luke, where are they?" Rosalyn questioned.

"Rosalyn, I'm really sorry, your parents... they died in the crash." Luke said.

"No." Rosalyn denied, "you're joking, Luke that's not funny.".

"I'm not joking Rosalyn." Luke shook his head.

"No." Rosalyn would not believe it, she could not believe it.

"It'll be okay, your three siblings will go live with their grandparents, and you can live with me." Luke stated trying to reassure her.

"No, I'm not going to live with you Luke, I'm only seventeen, I will live with my grandparents till I'm eighteen." Rosalyn informed.

"Okay, that's fine." Luke said, he sounded a bit disappointed, but Rosalyn did not pay any attention.

"How long was I asleep?" Rosalyn asked.

"Three days." Luke said.

"Did I miss my parents funeral?" Rosalyn asked.

"No, their funeral is tomorrow." Luke said.

Rosalyn nodded.

"It's all gonna be fine." Luke said.

"Sure...." Rosalyn nodded unconvincingly, "Luke, I need to some time alone, I need to think." She stated.

"Okay, if you change your mind you can live with me." Luke said and got up to leave.

"I think I'll be fine with my grandparents, but thank you Luke." Rosalyn said.

"You're welcome Rosa." Luke said, and left.

"Don't call me Rosa...." Rosalyn muttered.

What am I going to do? She thought, staring up at the ceiling, she closed her eyes, and thought about the dream she had just had, what a crazy beautiful dream... to bad I woke up to an awful nightmare.

I'm sorry Little Rose~

Rosalyn's eyes shot open, "who's there?" She asked.

I'm sorry darling, you can't see me~

That sounded like-

Yes my Little Rose, it's me The Dream Keeper~

"Why can't I see you?" Rosalyn asked out loud in a whisper.

Well dear, I'm in your head. I do wish I was out there with you though~

"I wish you were out here too." Rosalyn sighed.

You do? What about you dear Luke?~

When he said dear this time it held a tone of sarcasm and malice.

"He's not my dear anything." Rosalyn said with an eye roll, is he jeal-

I do not get jealous~

"Okay, okay, sorry." Rosalyn said.

I'm sorry Little Rose, I did not mean to retaliate~

"It's fine." Rosalyn said.

Will you be okay?~

"I'm Fine." Rosalyn said.

Hmmmm... when humans say that they usually mean the opposite...~

Rosalyn smiled faintly.

Do you need me to be there?~

Rosalyn bit her lip and nodded slightly.

It'll take me a while, for now you'll have to be asleep to see me~

"Okay." Rosalyn nodded, "I probably need to be asleep right now anyway.".

I'll be waiting~
