I decided to head over to Wesley’s place. I just wanted to get away for a while. Think about things… I didn’t know if he would mind. But I didn’t care. He probably won’t even notice that I was there at all. Everything was just as I remembered. I headed towards the bedroom and laid down on the bed and pulled up the covers.
My head was swimming with thoughts. Willow was really sweet, and I really did like her… but not that way, she was just a really good friend. Someone who was like me in many ways, some one I could relate to. Then there was Gunn, I couldn’t deny that I did still feel something for him; I just wasn’t sure of what it was. And then here I was back at Wes’, and didn’t even know why, and just honestly, I was just confused about everything. I closed my eyes finally and let sleep set in.
And just as soon as I had closed my eyes, I herd a noise. Something loud, like footsteps on the hardwood floor. Maybe Wesley had come home. I didn’t want him finding me in here. Guess, I should have thought of that before I came here. I opened my eyes; it was dark... I couldn’t see anything for a moment, so I tried to adjust my eyes in the darkness. I went to the door and looked out the hallway, there was nobody there. As I walked the empty hallway, I could hear the footsteps get louder and louder.
“Wesley?” I called out. But there was only Silence.
The footsteps got louder, they were right behind me, and then I herd a laugh. I stopped dead on my tracks.
“Hello Fred.” The man said. I turned around, and I let out a scream.
I ran out, past the hallway, went down the stairs and out the door and I screamed in horror as I found myself back in Wesley’s room. I was frantic, in a panic. I looked out the window and instead of seeing an empty street all I saw was this room. This very room. I could hear footsteps in the distance…
I looked around and decided to hide in the closet near the door. My heart was racing. I couldn’t quite understand what was happening. Dr. Siedel was dead, dead, dead…very dead. He couldn’t possibly be alive after all these years. I was there… I was there when it happened… Gunn had… We had… This wasn’t real. I could hear the footsteps getting closer. I put my hands to my mouth. I closed my eyes and the doors flung open…
“There you are. Thought you could run away from me…”
I was frozen, petrified by the fear. I had hated him so much at one point, but all that hatred had melted away long ago. Now I wished I had never allowed myself to forget it.
“Professor Siedel. How-?” I stuttered. Those were all the words I could muster.
“Can’t think of any words to say? That is so unlike you Fred. Did you think I would forget what you did? How you tried to kill me and had your boyfriend do it for you instead!” I could see the anger rising up in his eyes, and then he only smiled.
I was trembling, I wanted to run towards the door but he was blocking my path. In my fear, I couldn't remember anything of the spells Willow had taught me. Or anything else for the matter. My mind was just a blank, and the only thing I could think about was the fear.
“Professor Siedel I-”
“Shhhhh.” He shook his head. “You’re not thinking about running are you?”
I didn’t know what to do, so I did the only thing I could, I pushed him as hard as I could and made my way towards the door again. He only laughed. As I dashed for the exit I began to hear chanting in the distance. “…klyv mat chyvma klyvma chyt…”
Nooooo! This isn’t happening again! I said to myself. I could feel the air begin to change, and then I herd a roaring noise, and right behind me the portal appeared. It started its pull but with all the strength I could muster I began to make my way through the hallway and then finally made it to the stairs. I was in such a panic that I fell after a few steps and tumbled down the stairs landing hard on the floor…
I let out a scream and I sat straight up… I opened my eyes and gasped for air. I was still in Wesley’s bed. It had only been a nightmare. I could feel the cold sweat running down my forehead and my heart felt as if it was in my throat. I couldn’t say here. I- I didn’t want to be alone anymore. I grabbed my things and left, heading straight towards the mansion.
I pulled out my cell phone and dialed the first number that came to mind. I was so freaked and on the verge of crying… I just wanted to get back to the mansion as fast as I could. Damn it! Pick up the phone! I was about to hang up when I herd the familiar “Hello.”
“Gunn! Gunn! It’s Fred. I need to talk to you, please!”
