Ellette ordered her usual: a strawberry cream swirl. It wasn't coffee, but they made it for her anyway. Ellette handed over her money and gave the person behind the counter a large smile. She should be in school, but... Last nights dream had her worried. Ellette sat down at a table by the window and rested her head opon her palm.
Normally when she dreamed of the "Otherworld" they were pleasant dreams. Of fabulous balls, large libraries, and loving parents. Each one was clear, and extremely detailed. But this one was completely different. It was foggy and she could feel the terror in the air. She had not sure what was going on, but she could hear explosions in the background and screaming, but then a small voice had whispered to her It's a battle. She was not sure whose voice it was, but it sounded very familiar. Ellette sighed and took a sip of her drink.
She should forget the dream. But something wouldn't let her. normally the dreams faded after she had written them down. Yet this one was sticking around, right there in the back of her mind. Ellette stared out the window, not really paying attention to the world around her.

Ambrose always loved reading, he used reading to block out annoying people, such as teachers, parents, his peers. He actually worked at Spiral Books, but today was his day off. He should have been in school, but it seemed like today everyone wasn't going. He couldn't go back, not to that place, Yesterday morning when he arrived at school, a cold chill came over him, like something bad was going to happen, not like he would know what it was, if he told anyone they'd think he was crazy. He was starting to believe he actually was.
He saw a face he remembered passing down the hallways at school, He couldn't think of her name, then again he was terrible with names. "Hey." He said walking up to her. Why not be social, it could probably take his mind off yesterday.

Ellette jumped, not expecting anyone to talk to her. She could sit in the cafe for hours and no one would even notice she was there. She looked up and a smile spread across her face, and she pushed her green hair out of her eyes. "Hi..." She searched for his name. It started with an A. Alex? No. Aaron? No. Ambrose? Yes! She gestured to the seat across from her. "Take a seat Ambrose." Ellette took another drink of her swirl.

Ambrose sat in the seat in-front of her. "How are you?" He asked still trying to figure out her name, it just wasn't coming to him. He didn't want to sound stupid and ask, but thats what it was coming down to. "Um..This may sound really stupid, but I seen you in the hallways at school, but whats your name?" Ambrose asked.

"I am... okay I guess. And my name is Ellette. Do not worry," She shrugged. "Many people do not know who I am." She chuckled and took another drink, and held it out to him. "Care to taste? It's a strawberry cream swirl."

Ambrose nodded. "Sure." He said taking a sip, it actually was good. "Hmm..Thats good." He said smiling. He looked around and found a book that was once the most wanted book in Ramsa, he reached over and pulled it off the shelf. "Do You remember this book?" He asked facing it towards her. "Tiger Tiger, by Ash Night." He actually liked the book, for some reason, which didn't make sense when he hated all those stories about Vampires.

Ellette's eyes widened, and she reached under the table, into her bag, and pulled out her copy of the book. "Tiger Tiger is my favorite book." She smiled and opened the cover and held it out to him. "I actually was able to meet Ash Night and get her autograph." She looked down shyly. "So what about it?"

Ambrose leaned back and returned the book to its shelf. "Have you ever, like seen the places in the book in a dream..or something? And some of the places in the book match up exactly to places in Ramsa..Like the forest. Then again I think too much." he said grinning.

Ellette chuckled. "And here I am, thinking I was the only one who noticed. I think, she could have possibly based Tiger Tiger after this place." She looked down shyly. "That is, if you decide to believe in things like vampires, or even magic." She bit her lip, thinking about her dream last night.

"Magic to me...is everywhere... It definitely exists.. Most people think i'm weird because of it... I'm not sure about vampires.. but I know magic does exist." Ambrose said grinning. "She could have based it off of Ramsa, but Ramsa is such a small town..." He said staring at the book cover.

"Just because is a small town doesn't mean that it's impossible for her to have based it off here." Ellette let out a deep breath. She took a chance and reached out and rested her hand on his shoulder, and stared into his eyes. "I don't think your weird because you think magic exists." She lowered her eyes shyly. "I believe it does too..."

"Thats true. Its very possible she could have..." Ambrose said grinning. "Really? Its great that someone else believes then me..." A smile tugged at the corner of his lips. "When did you start believing?" He asked, this was the start to a great friendship, he knew it! He was really shocked that she believed in magic, that anyone other then him would, but then again its a big world.

Ellette looked down shyly. "Since I was five years old, thats when my dreams began." She had never told anyone about her dreams. People would just think she was crazy. They already did. "And you?"

"I don't think I had a point in my life when I didn't believe it's always has been a part of me." Ambrose looked at her, curiously, dreams? He wondered what these 'dreams' where about. "Dreams? What happens in your dreams."

Ellette reached under the table and pulled out her journal. "They are of this magical place called the "Otherworld." In it..." She blushed. "It would probably be easier just to read it." Ellette passed him her journal. She had never let anyone read what she had written within the pages.
