Free Dead Dreams ((Young Adult Paranormal Romance) ( Dead Dreams Trilogy)) by Michelle Wright Page B

with the opposite sex. Adam didn’t care that it was cheesy- for one moment he was happy.
    He’d become blinded by what he thought was as love as past girlfriends became irrelevant compared to what he’d found in Summer . His last conquest, Katie , in his view a stupid easy to fleece girl with no brain and a lot of fluff was fixated with calling him twenty times a day. Then there was Nadine , needy and clingy, crying all the time especially after sex which she didn’t really enjoy. Then…along came Summer, feisty living life on the edge and taking him from the depths of despair to the heig ht of passion in one fail swoop. T omorrow maybe she’d push his buttons to the limit again ; but for now being with her was all Adam needed . Their differences all forgotten.
    “ I’m happy you came back. ” She said sweetly.
    “ Me too. ”
    The young girl had finished her soup and seemed to be more relaxed. Adam attempted to make conversation.
    “ Go od soup huh? Rosie makes it, I think you’ll like her. ”
    Her eyes were darting around as if she was searching for something or someone,
    “ Where the hell am I? ”
    “ You’re at Reggie’s house don’t you remember… ”
    “ No I don’t and who are you guys? ” She asked in a bewildered voice.
    Summer whispered to Adam that maybe he should leave her alone but he can’t he’s fascinated at the fact she can’t remember anything,
    “ Is it drugs, ” He asked. “ Are you high?
    “ What, no way I aint no junkie! ”
    “ What’s your name? ”
    “ I don’t know… ”
    Her long dark hair fell over her face as she sob bed quietly, Reggie came back in and did his best to comfort her, putting a hand on her shoulder he whispered quietly in her ea r. Adam vied to hear what was being said but it was barely audible . H e moved closer , hoping to catch something but was stopped in his tracks by Reggie.
    “ This is not for you guys, move back or leave the room please. ”
    Surprised at the unfriendly reaction from a man who was always warm and welcoming Summer took Adam by the hand and led them into the hall , neither understanding what was happening . Adam was angry at having been spoken to like that.
    “ Something very very strange is going on, and I’m going to find out what it is. ”
    “ I don’t get it either what do we do? ” Summer replied.
    “ We’re going outside the answer is there. ”
    “ In the streets? ”
    “ Yeh…out there in the streets. ”
    Standing outside neither were sure which di rection to take or what they were supposed to find out. Summer’s bit her nails while Adam shu ffled his feet. W henever he was stressed or unable to comprehend s omething he couldn’t keep still . M eanwhile Summer saw something that got her thinking.
    “ See that guy over there washing his car, go and talk to him and see if he answers you. ”
    “ What? Of course he’ll answer me . Y ou do it , he’s gonna think I’m crazy. ”
    “ Why me? He won’t answer either of us so it don’t matter who goes . ”
    Confused beyond reasoning he didn’t understand why Summer insisted that a man washing his car wouldn’t speak to them . It wasn’t somethi ng he was prepared to accept - to prove her wrong . L eaving any awkwardness behind he walked toward the man thinking about what to say.
    “ Nice car man. ”
    “ Hi, I said you’ve a great car, love the colour. ”
    “ Hey man are you always this rude? ”
    ‘Hey dude what’s your problem! ”
    The man continued to wash his car never once acknowledging Adam who was dete rmined to carry on until he got a reaction.
    “ Screw you man, screw you! ” He yelled loudly .
    Summer stood next to him with tears in her eyes and a look of despair,
    “ I told you he wouldn’t see or hear us. ”
    “ Get real, he’s a flake that’s why he’s ignoring me. ”
    “ No Adam believe me he can’t see us. ”
    “ What is this fucking Bullshit! ”
    “ He really can’t see us, only some can. ”
    Standing there
