Excerpt 1
“I
had a feeling I’d see you again,” the voice called.
Dina
looked around the wooded area, feeling confused for a moment. It seemed
familiar. Across the marsh, Liam was leaning against a tree, casually dressed,
hair slightly less shaggy than it had been last time, hands shoved in his
skinny jeans. A light mist lingered over the grass, a taste of salt in the air.
How did she get here?
“What?”
“Didn’t
think it would be this soon,” he replied with a shrug.
The
Gut surrounded her. She didn’t remember coming here, yet she was in the Bay
Hook. Solid ground beneath her feet and the stench she breathed in, all real.
“Why, uh . . . did you come back?”
“The
real question is why did you call me here?”
“What
are you talking about? You were already here, and I didn’t call. I don’t even
have your number.”
“Want
it?” he asked, smirking, then shook his head. “No, wait . . . oh. Uninhibited
speech, foggy backdrop, extra flirty. I get it.”
“Get
what?”
“We’re
dreaming. You’re asleep right?”
“No,”
she spat, spreading her arms, twisting in place. She pulled a cattail-punk out
of the ground and shook it at him. “We’re in the Hook, hello, don’t you see the
trees? Can’t you smell the marsh?”
“You
must have been thinking about me, which is normal, frankly, given the
circumstances. But how the hell are you keeping me here?”
“I’m
not doing anything.”
“Dina,
did both your parents have psionic abilities?”
“Only
my father, why?”
“Curious,”
he said, moving toward her, gray eyes sweeping up and down. “What about his
parents, either of them?”
“I
don’t know. What does it matter?”
“People
don’t normally share dreams. You’re strong—”
“Why
does everyone keep saying that?” Dina threw her hands up in the air and walked
away. “Who cares if I am or not? There’s some dude out there burning up people,
and I don’t have time to tramp around the swamp with E.T.”
“What
did you say?”
“Nothing.
Doesn’t matter. I’m outta here.”
“Wait,
Dina,” he said, catching up and surpassing her. He grabbed both her arms to
stop her. “You really are dreaming.”
Everything
around her was too real to be a dream. She felt the pressure of his fingers,
even the sinking feeling of her feet on the soft ground. “So this isn’t the
Gut, it’s a dream? Right, and you’re sharing it with me, sure.”
“You’re
amazing!” He laughed boyishly. “Even after all you’ve seen, you’re still questioning
everything.”
“Then
prove it to me. Call me, here’s my number,” she said, mentally sending the
digits to his head.
Liam
smiled at her. A sweet, sincere smile that made her smile back before
shrugging.
“Dina—”
Her
eyes popped open. The ceiling of her bedroom stared back. “Oh, what the hell?”
Dina
sat up, brow furrowed. She reached toward the nightstand for her phone. Was it
going to ring? It had felt as if she had been there, standing in the grass with
Liam. She shut her eyes, trying to bring the images back, but they were already
fading.
Had
she just shared a dream with Liam?
