Dream Of Demons While You Sleep

DNA test?

I went downstairs when I was ready.
“Rene?”
“Yeah darling?”
“You know how I don’t know my dad yeah?” she nodded. “Well I was thinking about something Adam said and maybe I should get a DNA test, I mean it wouldn’t do any harm if I knew who my dad was”
“They aren’t free they cost money you know that don’t you?”
“I know that, I have money.”
“Don’t you think it’s a bit much with the court and all that?”
“No, court is a month away and scares the shit out of me. A DNA test is what I want there is a difference”
“Ok, when do you want to go, your going to have to make an appointment” she said.
“I was thinking next week sometime.”
“We’ll take you into the Doctor tomorrow and make an appointment” she told me.
“Ok” I walked into the kitchen and wrapped my arms around William. I smiled as he turned around in my arms. He kissed me,
“Uh hum” what was with his mom and interrupting? He picked me up and moved us to the back yard. I laughed and got down.
“I only wanted a hug” I laughed. He frowned at me. I poked my tongue out and walked inside. He smiled and ran after me, I giggled and ran up the stairs, well that was a bad decision now I have no where to go. I giggled and ran into his room and jumped under the blankets.
“Well I wonder were Annabelle could be” he sat on me.
“AH” I screamed. He lifted the blankets up,
“I found you!” he yelled laying down next no me before attacking me. Tickling me as I wriggled around, almost falling off the bed. “Be careful” William said pulling me back into the middle of the bed.
“Were you listening to the conversation between me and your mom?” I asked after I caught my breath. He shook his head.
“No”
“I’m going to the doctors tomorrow to make an appointment for me to get a DNA test”
“That’s great” his face fell, I cocked an eyebrow.
“What's the matter Bill?”
“Nothing” he looked away from me. I sat on his lap and made him look at me.
“What is it William?”
“It’s just I don’t want you to go anywhere” I smiled and pecked his lips.
“I’m not going anywhere stupid. I only want to know who he is it’s not like I’m going to go meet him and live with him because he is my dad. I might go meet him but I’d drag you with me” he smiled
“Good. Hey I’ve got practice today you coming?” I shook my head.
“Nah it’s ok. I’m tired.” He smiled; I got off him and went into my room lying down on the bed again. William followed,
“I’m leaving now you sure you don’t want to come?”
“Positive” I closed my eyes.
“Bye”
“Bye” I smiled, the door closed. I waited around ten minutes and got up. I walked out of the house and next door where all my paint was. I grabbed it and one of the blue plastic covers. I walked back to the house and went into my room. I opened my sketch book and looked threw it. I found the picture I was looking for. A dark fairy her purple wings pointy and stands of her hair fell over her face. Her black and red dress looked a lot like Tinkerbelle’s. She had long red gloves on and she was sitting on a throne, she had a goblin next to her and a gargoyle on her other side. Her hand was on its back almost like she was patting it. I started painting the picture; I started with the goblin and gargoyle then the fairy and last but not least the throne she was sitting on. It’s just so much easier for me to paint that last. I stood back and looked at it, the wall needed something else. I went downstairs and grabbed a ladder. I painted gray clouds over her head. I looked at it again after I moved the ladder. I smiled to myself, I have to admit it was a good job. I fixed up the gargoyle and then Rene walked in. she knew what I was doing so she just looked at it.

“Why so dark Anna?” she asked looking at the fairy with the purple eyes.
“It’s one of my favorites, and it’s the way I felt when I drew it, the gargoyle represents me wanting to protected from Jenna, I chose the gargoyle because they are supposed to protect churches and stuff from evil and to me she is the worst evil I’ve seen. The fairy is because I wanted to have wings so I could fly and be free. And last the goblin looking up at her because they are supposed to be evil little creatures and again the gargoyle is protecting her from it.” I explained the painting to her. I blinked away the tears that were forming in my eyes. She smiled at me.
“That has a lot of meaning Anna” I nodded as she said it.
“I didn’t paint it for it’s meaning I painted it because it’s what I wanted to do, it’s the painting I wanted to paint.” She looked over at my open book.
“May i?” she asked sitting down in front of it.
“Yeah” she looked at the page it was open too. It was my latest drawing. One I’d done before I came to live with the Beckett’s, it was on a prince sitting in a throne his wavy brown hair was behind his shoulders, except for one strand the was in his eye. Behind him was a crowd of people, servants, guards, and peasants. In front of him knelt a pretty young black haired girl she was in an old fashioned dress and it looked like she was begging the prince for something. But if you look close enough you would see she has shackles on, and that she is really pleading for him to free her, to save her from the prison she is in. I can give you two guesses to who it is in that photo. You guessed it; it’s me pleading William to save me from Jenna.

“What’s with this one?” she asked flipping the page to a drawing of a boy curled up lying on the floor in a pool of tears. His blonde hair hiding his face,
“It’s of a friend I had; he wasn’t a very happy boy a lot of the time. His dad was like Jenna, but then he was put in a foster home because his dad left” she flipped threw the pages with all the fairies then the landscapes, she came across a picture I drew of my old boyfriend. She looked at me and cocked an eye brow.
“A friend” I told her, she nodded and went threw the rest. She closed the book and smiled at me.
“I have to go start dinner, but they ere really good, have you ever thought of putting them on canvas and selling them?” she asked, I shook my head. With that she got up and left the room.
