Nightmare

389817857_0d467dc896

I awoke in a cold sweat, my thin pajamas clinging to my clammy skin. As my heartbeat rang through my ears and I fought to catch my breath, I looked out my fogged window to Gatsby striding from his open home basking in the brilliant end of summer sun. The first thing my frantic eyes noticed was the bathing suit underneath his royal bathrobe. My horrific nightmare had leaped from my restless mind out of the window and on to Gatsby's promenade. I feared my dream was coming true. I leaped out from underneath my sheets, pulled on last night's clothes that were carelessly strewn across the floor, and stumbled through the fog and into the early morning dew.
