I did not sleep well last night.....
I first dreamed that Charlie, Zachary, Thomas and I were on a raft somewhere in the middle of nowhere. The water was dead calm, the air was cool and moist, fog was thick. I had a sense we were in extremely deep water, and for some reason, I just knew the water did not contain oxygen and if you fell in the water you would sink to the bottom.
Charlie had begun leaning on the raft for some reason, he had reached into the water. In my dream, Thomas appeared as he did when he was 2 years old, able to walk around and talk but very much a tiny little guy with chubby arms and fly away hair.
As Charlie had leaned over Thomas tumbled into the water sinking immediately. Instinctively, I jumped into the icy cold water and clutched him to me then swam back up to the surface. I told Charlie he had to stop what he was doing because Thomas had fallen into the water, I was afraid.
He didn't stop.
While I was still in the water Thomas had fallen again into the water, sinking immediately. In my dream I dove into the water, barely able to see his tiny little form drifting down, and grabbed his arm pulling him back up to the surface.
At this point I woke up, scared.
I was awake for quite a while after this, more then an hour I would assume, even though I hadn't looked at the clock. My eyes were heavy, but I just couldn't sleep.
At some point I did drift off.....
I was living in a house trailer and Charlie had come down the hallway to wake me up. He was standing before me as I lay in bed and he told me to get ready something was going to happen. As he said this in the dream, the real life Charlie had walked up to me while I slept and woke me up.
