I walked out of my house to the backyard. It was summer and from across my neighbors yard I saw a girl on the sidewalk. She was wearing jeans and tall boots. I didn't recognize her I could tell she was important. She motioned me over, "here," she said. I looked at her confused. "You wanted a lucid dream tonight, I'm here to give it to you." I was shocked. I said, "this doesn't make sense you can't just give me that can you?" To which she replied, "why not." Just then I realized she was walking with someone, a girl. I wanted her to be a boy and she was. Then because he still had his long hair I wanted it shorter and it was. The girl smirked and said, "have your fun but don't forget there's work to do." I tuned back to this boy I had created he kissed me like he could read my mind-which in a way I guess he could. Things progressed to a make out session when I suddenly turned my head away. I could do anything in the world and I was kissing some stranger. So I got to my feet and bam! I was on the track. I started rehearsing my jumps for Thursday's track meet. After that I studied for my test trying to remember every little detail. I was getting tired, which is ironic because I was asleep, and the girl returned. She handed me a big cup of green tea (extra caffeine) and urged me to take a big sip. I did and she said I had to get ready to wake up. I didn't want to of course, I looked at my reflection in the tea and I was afraid seeing myself would shock me awake. It didn't. Then this girl said, "don't worry you can have every other night. But right now there's work to do," and I dropped the cup of tea which broke at my feet. The last thing I heard her say was "I've got it from here." As my alarm went off.
