Chapter 182: Sleep Reading
EMMA
~
I groaned in my sleep turning against my bed, covering myself more with my blanket, and allowing the realm of dreams to take . I was so ntally tired that I really needed sleep and thank God I found myself fading. But my dreams weren’t exactly sothing I would call relaxing.
Fuck! Even in it, I was still reading? I flipped the book pages written in green words, a hand against my jaw as I scanned through them. I guess there was no use avoiding this, my reading these days was so much that even in my dream I couldn’t run away from them, great! Super great! For weeks since I started here, I always found myself reading in...
I shift my gaze to my environnt. Wait, I thought this was the school library, so where is this place? I was suddenly conscious of my environnt and not the book anymore. All this ti I thought I was ntally reading in the library, except that it wasn’t... well it did look like the library but different, I couldn’t make out the place well because it was all blurry, only the texts were there for
to see but the rest of my place, no.
So I narrowed my eyes, I saw shelves but that was it, the place was dark too with only lightened torches at the wall, it was really hard to make out the things here. So I shrugged, shifting my gaze back to the book before , the text was super clear and it seed only the book was what I could see. I tilted my head while watching the book... this didn’t seem like a book from the library either, surely none of them had green texts on them, I was finally noticing that now. Overly curious I closed the book trying to see the heading of what I was supposedly reading, and just when I was about to make it out but when a loud ringing sound shocked .
I yelped looking around for the source but to no avail and then it ca again but this ti louder, it echoed in the entire place and it made my heart jump further, was that my alarm?
It ca again.
I gasped, flashing my eyes open before rubbing them and reaching for the annoying sound and tapped on the clock and it snoozed.
"Emma, you’re gonna be late for school!" Vanessa’s voice ca in.
It took a minute as I blinked multiple tis and tried to recall everything and I sat up, scratching my head. That’s right, school. I groaned, and just when I thought I had taken a break from night school, high school ca to do its worst.
I groaned getting off the bed and getting ready for the day.
I walked to my mirror adjusting my clothes properly, I was in blue Jeans ripped slightly and a white turtle neck black sweater. I combed out my hair before placing them in a low bun and adjusting my glasses. My phone rang distracting
and I picked it up from the dresser. My face glowed as I swipe the answer button.
"You called just on ti," I said, almost giddy. "Morning"
"Morning" his smooth baritone voice made a sweet shiver run through , fuck hearing his voice made my body scream alive and I just couldn’t wait to feel him.
"I hope you’re ready because your aunt keeps screaming you’re late"
"And if I said I’m not?" I said walking to my window.
"Then we skip school, just you and I"
I giggled opening my window and there he was, waiting for
near his black Porsche, dressed breathtakingly, anything he wore was simply perfect on him, even though it was just a jean and a shirt, and his black shades only made it better, it gave him that boyish yet mature look. Maybe both?
"Skip school?"
"Been on my mind" he moved his face to the window and his smile got wider.
"I will think about it," I mused.
"Emma!"
"Fuck"
He chuckled. "Hurry down"
Yup, that was what I was about to do. I ended the call, grabbed my school bag, and rushed downstairs.
"Fuck Emma, you wanna be late?"
"Relax Vanessa," I said, grabbing the toast she made.
"Look I know there’s night school but you still need to work on the high school so that your mom doesn’t get suspicious"
"Yes, aunt" I chewed on it. "Bye," I said already at the door.
"Bye!" she called back.
The mont I was out of the door I rushed to Dace, wrapping my arms around his neck and giving him a mouth-watering kiss, I didn’t know what ca over , but I thought if I don’t do that my heart won’t be able to hold it in.
"Soone misses " he mused parting our lips.
"It was just one night and it felt like forever"
"I know" he kissed
again before parting. "Did you eat toast?"
I covered my mouth. "Sorry" I mumbled, forgetting he was accustod to at only.
He flicked my glasses and I blushed. "We should get going before your aunt screams at us"
I laughed.
I slamd the door while putting on my seat belt. "Is Emilia coming?"
"Maybe, still don’t know" he started the car.
I really wanted her to co back too, so I was hoping to see her in school.

This sumr seed like the longest ever because coming back here almost felt like the first ti. Watching as everyone walked into school was so nostalgic that it made
reminisce about all that happened during sumr. Discovering I’m a half-witch, night school, supernatural craziness, and my relationship with Dace. I flinched when I felt his hand on mine in a tight hold and a smile on my lips with my heated cheeks. We made our way inside.
Even though a lot has happened I had a feeling this term in school will be different from how it was before, I don’t know where I got that intense feeling from, maybe a gut feeling?
