Dream Journals Book Four

About the Book

Payton pulled into the driveway erratically, with her cell phone stuck to her ear. She was chatting with Halee about all the new school gossip. Payton threw her pink Mitsubishi Spider convertible in park and stepped out of her car wearing a pink dress fully accessorized to match her car. Her finger nails were freshly painted and she was blowing on them to make them dry quicker. As Payton walked onto the front deck she hung up her cell phone and put it into her pink purse that was dangling from her wrist, “Jessica, come look how good our cars look sitting side by side each other!” Jessica came to the front door when Payton stopped dead in her tracks before her new pink shoes touched the mixture Alexis had poured in front of the doorway, “Ohh…, yuck…, what is that…? Jess, I think someone threw up on your porch!” Jessica opened the door laughing on the inside knowing that Payton would freak out if she knew why it was there. Payton stood in the doorway like a statue, “Are Alexis and your mom here?” Jessica nodded yes, Payton called for them to come to the living room for her big announcement. When they walked in Payton stepped over the mess at the doorway she placed one hand on her hip and the other straight up in the air with her palm up dangling her purse. She was making another one of her grand entrances sounding like a sports announcer, “Let’s all give a big round of applause to the new…varsity… cheerleader… for the North Putnam Cougars…, here she is the one, the only, Payton…, Laser…, Livingston…!” Jessica clapped her hands together and ran towards here with her arms extending a great big hug to congratulate her, “Oh Payton you did it! You are probably the first sophomore ever to make the Varsity squad! I am so proud of you!” Payton smiled with pure joy and a little full of herself, “Well, what can I say greatness runs in the family! You know my mom was a cheerleader also. As soon as I told her I made the varsity squad she ran in and put on her old cheerleading outfit and away she went doing backbends and cartwheels throughout the house. For now I think it’s time to celebrate by going to the mall and doing a little shopping.” Jessica grabbed her purse while Payton walked out on the front porch to get better reception on her cell phone. The number she dialed was busy so she hung the phone up and started to dial again. When she dialed the third number the cell phone mysteriously flew out of her hand and across the wooden deck with a lot of force. Jessica heard the loud clatter and walked outside to check on Payton. Payton had her hands on her hips balled up in a fist as she walked toward her cell phone stomping her feet, “Payton what happened?” Payton stomped her foot, “I don’t know, but I hope it’s not broke. I love that phone. I would just die without it!” Payton bent down and picked up her phone looking at it carefully. All the buttons seemed to work just fine and she was able to smile again, “I really can’t make any sense out of it. I was calling Delilah and it just flew out of my hands!” Jessica stopped when all of a sudden she felt a spirit was close by. It had the same bad energy that she felt before. Jessica ran back into the house to tell her mom and Alexis what she felt. Alexis called for Payton to come back in the house where she knew she would be safe. Alexis wanted to make sure it could not follow them when they were inside the house. She had to talk in code because Payton didn’t know about Jessica’s ability to sense spirits, “Jess, how do you feel?” Jessica waited a second walking around the room in circle before she answered, “I am fine, I feel good right now.” Payton noticed Jessica’s weird behavior, “Well it looks like your drunk doing your weird circle thingy.” Alexis sighed with relief turning to Payton, “Payton I was wondering if Jess could spend the night with you tonight?” Payton called her mom and ask permission. Her mom, Pam, said it would be fine. Jessica ran and grabbed clot
