It was my roommate, her boyfriend, my boyfriend and I. It was nighttime, my friend and her boyfriend headed towards their hotel room and my boyfriend and me headed to ours. The hotel room had two twin beds. We went to sleep in the separate beds, facing the beds, me on the left and my boyfriend on the right. I think he fell asleep, but I did not yet. Then a dark figure moved towards his bed. I did not move…don’t think I could. I think it might have been sleep paralysis. I just laid there in silence and unmoving, as I watched this mystery happening.

The mysterious figure turned on a leaf-blower, which is what I imagined the sound was… The figure proceeded towards my boyfriend’s bed and stood right next to the side of his bed. He did not wake… I don’t know why. Could he not hear the loud sounds from the leaf blower? It was very dark, so all I saw were very vague shadows and shapes. I did not hear anything else other than the sounds from the leaf blower. All I could think of was the loud sounds to cover the mumbles and screams of my boyfriend struggling, while I saw rapid shadows moving on the other bed…

Then I woke up… like it was a dream. I was sitting on a chair at a theme park with an older man that might have been my grandfather. I looked down at my hands where my white dream journal sat. But then I realized this was my old journal that I have already filled up and got up to retrieve my newer one to write in it. As I walked off near a chest drawer, where I believed my dream journal was at. As I was approached the drawer, I felt like something was watching me. I looked around, trees surrounding me, getting dark, the theme park was nowhere in sight. And maybe I spotted something in the bushes…

NOTE: Before having this dream, I played a little of “Close Your Eyes” on steam. And I think the leaf blower from my friend’s snapchat, as she used one to clear off dust from her old Christmas tree. What was interesting to me was that I had a dream within a dream and awoke from that inner dream to write about it.
