Peyton

I’d tossed and turned all night. My sleep was full of dark dreams where monsters lurked, and shadows ate me up. I climbed out of bed and stretched before heading to the shower to wake myself up a bit. I’d need coffee by the bucket if I was to stay awake all day. My mom texted me last night and said she was headed home today as Nathaniel had to attend business meetings over the next week. I was so happy she was coming back as I missed her like crazy. I couldn’t wait to squeeze the crap out of her and watch movies all night like when I was little.
