The War (Ultimate Power Book 2) (19 page)

“
Let's go home.”  Eric said.

I called for Maggie and Silas to come with us.  I wasn’t about to go home without them.  My
home was their home and I couldn’t live without my closest friends by my side.  Forever.

I opened my eyes to a bright summer day.  I had fallen asleep on the platform again.   The memory of my dream would be burned in my mind forever.  My phone rang and I answered it confused, the number wasn
’t one that I recognized.

“
Hello?”

“
Um, hi.  This is Eric.  Eric Gray.  We met yesterday.”

“
Eric?”

“
Yeah.  Look, I was wondering if you would want to go out sometime.”

The details of the dream I had had thundered in my mind.  Was this for real?  Was he the Eric from my dream?

The only thing I could do was answer his question with a yes.  With only talking to him on the phone, I could still feel the familiar pull he had on me, even from my dream.

“
Sure Eric.  We can go out.”

He said goodbye and I closed my phone.  I went about my usual morning activities like nothing had happened.  I was in denial about Eric.  There was no way that I had dreamed all this.  It felt so real to me, but those kinds of things just don
’t happen in the real world.

I had remembered meeting him and how I had been so mesmerized by his presence in my dream. 

When I got out of the shower, I heard my phone ringing again.  It was probably my mother calling me to tell me she was going to be working late again tonight.  I tried to make it to the phone and answer it, but I didn’t t.  I was right; it was Mom.  I‘ll call her back after I get dressed, I thought.

I tied my shoes, grabbed the phone and headed downstairs.
The dream still burning in my mind. Surely I had still been dreaming when I got the phone call. I had to have been. Just as I hit the last step, the doorbell rang.

I opened the door to see a boy standing there.  It was Eric and he was holding a single white rose out to me. 

“Hello, Princess.”  

I couldn’t breathe.  My head was spinning and I was going to faint.   He was the same Eric from my dream. 

“Did you sleep well?”
