"Lisa stop crying its okay." I heard someone say as I was still sobbing from the terrible dream I had just had.
I hadn't had one of those dreams in a while.
"Sh sh sh its okay. I'm here. It's okay" the person said again while rubbing my back.
I looked up and realized that my head was now on Dylan's shoulder.
We were parked at our house, and there was nobody else in the car.
I began to calm down as Dylan continued to stroke his fingers through my hair and rub my back.
After about a minute I had completely calmed down.
"Lisa my god your shaking" Dylan said wrapping his arms around me.
Maybe not completely.
"Its okay I'm fine," I said as I started to sit up.
Dylan pushed me back down on his shoulder.
"No you are not fine Lisa," Dylan said looking down at me with worry.
I can basically taste it.
"You just woke up on the verge of a panic attack and you say your fine" Dylan said looking sternly at me.
"Its nothing Dylan," I said wiping my tears away.
I got up still a little shaken at what just happened.
I really didn't want him to know about what I had just dreamed about.
"Lisa don't say its nothing, because it is." He said grabbing my hands.
"Lisa answer me this," He said looking me dead in the eyes.
I really hope he isn't gonna ask what I really don't want him to ask.
"Do you usually have these?" He asked.
I could tell my answer would affect the ENTIRE situation.
"No not until tonight," I said partially lying.
It's true I haven't had one in quite awhile.
So I mean I am not totally lying.
Right?
I could see Dylan breathe a sigh of relief just a little.
He pulled me in for a hug.
"Please let me know if this happens again."
That was for sure not gonna happen.
"Okay," I said.
Oh, wait. I just realized something
"How long have we been in here?" I asked looking at Dylan.
"About 7 minutes." He said looking at his phone.
"Don't worry I told them I would chill in here for a while before I carried you to your room." He said.
"Oh okay good."
I most especially did not want the rest of my brothers to know about this.
And trust me if they did I would have to talk with the CIA.
Dylan looked over and gave me a confused look.
"Why don't you want them to know?" Dylan asked.
"Of course I don't want them to know Dylan they will make a huge deal out of it," I said looking down.
"And besides it's better if we just forget about it," I said.
He was about to protest before I stopped him.
"Please, Dylan I don't want anyone else to know." I pleaded.
"Ok," he said in defeat.
"But if they start to get more frequent you need to tell us." He said
As if. "Yeah, I will," I said.

I was now sitting in my room in the middle of the floor doing absolutely nothing.
I did not want to go back to sleep in case I had that horrible dream again.
It was currently 9:30 and Jason was making dinner.
I wasn't particularly hungry but was more tired than I had expected.
I don't usually go to bed at these times, but I guess the nightmare from earlier drained a bit of my energy.
"KIDS COME DOWN TO EAT" I heard Jason shout.
There was basically a stampede at the sound of that.
I was the last to come down and took the seat between Jason and Jacob.
"Hmmm this looks really good Jason," Justin said inspecting the food.
"Hey what are you talking about I always make good food," Jason said to Justin.
"Oh and by the way Jason I am not a kid," Dylan said glaring at Jason.
"Hmm your right your a little kid," Jason said.
The entire table laughed at that except Dylan of course.
"Whatever" Dylan said.
In case you were wondering Jason made lasagna for dinner.
And might I add it smells really delicious.
I may actually eat despite me not wanting to.
Yeah, I'm weird like that.
"Okay Lisa and Justin so tomorrow I have to go to work and Jacob is coming with, and Dylan will be at practice." Jason started to say.
Justin and I started getting excited at the thought of being home alone.
We could do whatever we want.
Eat whatever we want.
This is gonna be too good.
"But before you get too excited-' too late - 'i am hiring a babysitter for you guys," Jason said
"WHAT" I shouted out.
"Oh come on we don't need a babysitter, we can attend to ourselves just fine," Justin said pouting.
"Yeah, we can take care of ourselves," I said looking at Dylan smirking figure.
I'm sure he was getting a huge kick out of this.
"If I leave you two alone in this house, I might as well start looking for a new house.
"hey we are not that bad," I said stuffing a piece of lasagna in my mouth.
Wow, this is actually really good.
I wonder what special ingredient he put in it this time.
"-would have to move states" Jacob laughed out.
Come on Lisa stop losing focus.
"Fine whatever," I said continuing my meal.
I had the perfect plan in mind, and I think Justin caught on.
"Yh so what, bring the babysitter," Justin said
"Okay," Jason gave us a weird look.
"But if the sitter says anything about you guys misbehaving you will be in serious trouble." He said looking at us both sternly.
"Yeah yeah, whatever" Justin and I both said at the same time.
~Overprotective~
Dinner finished about ten minutes ago, and now Justin and I were both in my room thinking of the things we would do to the babysitter tomorrow.
"Uggh why is this so hard," I said throwing my ball against the wall.
"Oh come on it might be some middle aged old woman who doesn't know anything," Justin said picking the ball that I just threw.
"Yeah because Jason gonna hire some middle aged old woman to watch us."
We are known to be troublemakers when the time is right.
I'm gonna feel sorry for whoever the babysitter is.
"How about we chop her hair off......and say it was an accident," Justin said
His eyes lit up like a Christmas tree just then.
"Justin that's a horrible idea, and who would believe its an accident when it's us," I said slapping him upside the head.
"Hey, I am just throwing ideas out." He said rubbing his head.
"How about we just sleep on it, maybe we will come up with better ideas," I said getting comfortable in my bed.
"Yeah, your right little one." He said smirking at me.
I glared at him
"Just kidding," he said laughing.
"Well is not funny," I said pouting.
He walked over to me and kissed my forehead.
"Night little sis," he said before walking out of the room.
Great. Now for the sleeping part.
I really didn't want to close my eyes and go to sleep.
I didn't want to have that nightmare. It would feel so real. Everything felt so real in that nightmare.
Most of the times it is the same nightmare. Sometimes worse.
I tried to get as comfortable as possible.
Maybe if I tried to think about happy thoughts I wouldn't have one.
Hours and hours passed and I still hadn't fallen asleep.
I don't think I am gonna sleep at all tonight.
I turned on my phone to see what the time was.
And my god I just turned the sun on.
That was my fault.
I blinked a couple times and saw that it was 3:00 am.
Wow, it's early and I am still not asleep.
It's not like I wasn't tired, but I was too afraid to close my eyes in case I had that dream again.
I decided to get up out of my bed and go to the kitchen.
Maybe I could preoccupy my time and get something to drink.
I tiptoed to my door and started opening the door, and let's just say if this was some horror movie I was basically asking to die.
I slipped through the small crack and continued down the hallway and towards the stairs.
I went into the kitchen and grabbed a cup of water, but of course, it had to slip out if my hands and fall.
Oh why why-why, couldn't I have gotten away with sneaking just this once.
I stayed as still as a deer in headlights for the longest time.
When I was sure nobody else was coming down I got another cup of water and made my way upstairs as fast as possible.
I drank my water and laid back down in bed. Now to get some rest.
I was very exhausted.
I closed my eyes and tried to get some sleep.

As every chapter does, but I do it for you guys and I will continue until this book reaches its end.
