We had been driving for many hours as I drifted in and out of concience. Everytime I had woken I had found that he was driving over the speed limit, way over. The chairs were very comfortable so they made it easier for me to sleep on.

It was 5:00am when I finally woke up, the terrain was a lot greener than it usually was. Again the pale guy was traveling at 110 miles per hour, passing signs that said 80. He sat there staring blankly at the road, as if he wasnt concentrating.

Ahead was a small toll booth built into log cabins. Small window boxes with little blue and pink flowers hung outside. Small men sat at the window each dressed in what looked like a Scouts uniform. I chuckled to myself.

Our car pulled up at one of the windows. A tall and very young guy sat there staring blankly at us. The pale guy spoke

"Hey Shane," He said softly.

"Let me guess," Said 'Shane' "Want to get in undetected,"

The pale guy nodded.

"Go on then," He laughed.

The barrier lifted and our car sped straight back up to 110 mph. I clutched on to the handle bar tightly.

"Where are we?" I asked sheepishly after a few minutes

"Don't worry" He said softly.

I drifted off for a few hours. I had another kryptic dream. I was in the same room as someone, I knew who they were subconcously but I didnt know who they were. I stayed confused for the rest of the dream untill I woke up.

I looked around. Our car was traveling (still very fast) on a road lined with thick pine forests. Hardly any cars were traveling down here.

The car slowed down. It turned gently into a smaller thinner road that inclined up hill. A set of cast iron gates were ahead. On them was a design that curved and split and flowered. It was amazing. They opened gracefully and we drove down a long drive, the forest still thick on either side.

The drive was really long. We eventually neared a corner. Suddenly the drive opened up into a clearing. There was beautiful long grass with purple flowers everywhere. At the end of the clearing was a house. It was white walled, with wooden panels. The roof was slopped with black slate tiles.

It was utterly breath taking.

"Is this your house?" I asked in awe.

"Yeah," He said gently.

"I have something to tell you." He said, his eyes looked in pain. "Do you know who I am?"

"Uhm, sorry, What?

"Do you know me?"

"I dont know." I was racking my brain trying to think who he might me.

He smiled and switched on the CD Player. Rhianna's Unfaithful started playing. My heart tugged painfully and knotted.

FLASHBACK

"Do you, you know, dance?"

"Yeah, but I dont know how too, didnt you know Ollie"

PRESENT DAY

The same name echoed around my head.

"O-Ollie." I stammered.

He nodded, his eyes stricken with pain.
