A/n: I promise I'm trying to update more often! I've just been really busy lately. I wilL try to update at least every other day, since I have to go to a camp next week. Keep in mind that this chapter is basically all texting, so it's just very long conversations. It's also a filler, and I'm sorry for that, but it's very important. I hope you enjoy! 

What do you need, Bailey?

Answers.

About...?

What just happened.

care to be more specific? I mean, I was just sleeping so...

So you don't know what happened?

I might if you tell me!

Ok, ok calm down. Basically, I was on the roof and some guy attacked me and suddenly this new person intervened and saved me. The person who saved me looked a lot like you.

Tbh, that sounds pretty close to the dream I was just having.

Really? That would be a... strange coincidence...

Yeah, that doesn't seem right...

Harper tensed as she read what Bailey had written. Even though most of her dream had already faded from her memory, she knew that her dream had most of these events. She pinched herself, thinking that maybe she was still dreaming, but the small burst of pain tore that theory to pieces.

Well, what do you think is happening?

I don't know! Am I supposed to?!

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh.  

Listen, I don't know what's happening, or how we're involved, but it can't be good, if the person has to save me.

Yeah. I'll ask about it.

Ok.

The phone went silent for a moment.

Hold on, isn't it, like, 6:30 for you right now?

About that time, yeah.

I should let you sleep.

Um, Bailey, it's 4:57 for you right now. You're the one who should be sleeping. 

Do you just, like, keep a clock with our time on it for a situation like this?

Maybe ;)

Well that's bothersome, lol!

I know. Now, go to sleep.

I will if you will.

I'll try then. Sleep tight!

With a sigh, Harper left the conversation and went to check Dylan's. Thankfully, he hadn't been spamming her -yet- and had only sent her one message about how his conspiracy theory was "definitely true". She almost gasped when she realized it had been sent about 30 minutes ago and put her hand to her forehead, shaking it.

Why are you awake? It's a weekend, you should be sleeping!

What makes you think I slept?

That's... really unhealthy.

Eh, it can't be that bad if I'm still alive!

Uh, yeah, it can be!

Whatever. Did you read my theory?

I skimmed through it, yes.

Well, what do you think? Would it make sense?

Um, Dylan, hate to break it to you, but you're too average for an alien to notice you alone.

Well, my mom says I'm special!

98% sure almost every parent tells that to their children.

And who would be part of the last 2%?

My parents.

The texting paused for a few seconds, that took an... unexpected turn.

Well, it's accurate.

Um... ok? Still, even if it didn't notice only me, would it make sense?

If there was an alien protecting people, it'd be on the news right now. Are you sure you weren't imagining things?

Harper, somebody was helping me a few nights ago. My 3 year old cousin was almost hit by a car and someone saved his life. 

Well, it's definitely not an alien.

Then what would you call it?

I guess I'd call her a guardian angel.

Hold on, "her"? Do you know who I'm talking about?

Not really, but Bailey and I have a guess.

who's Bailey?

my  older sister...

since when did you have a sister?

I've never mentioned her?

Nope. I thought you were an only child.

Oh, definitely not! I have two younger brothers as well who are twins: Thomas and Hayden.

Huh. Well, that just helps me prove a different theory.

Are you making conspiracy theories about me?

What? No! It was just my theory about the angel person.

Well, since my family brought up this topic, I'd like to know what the theory was.

Ok... So, back a few days ago, when I had that weird encounter that started my theories in the first place, I tried to remember every detail about what happened so I could compare it to other things. Then, when you were helping me yesterday, you moved my arm into the same position the other person had. So I thought maybe it was you.

Hold on, what? You think that I'm the weird person who saved your cousin's life and helped you? Why are you so obsessed with that topic, btw?

because it was a strange coincidence that you were going to help me, and then someone else did. Anyways, yeah, I think it was you.

Well, I'm sorry, but I don't leave my house at night. All I do is try to sleep.

Do you succeed?

I was sleeping before I started texting you, so, yes.

Hmm... I need to add into my theory. Brb.

Wait! What are you writing?!?

The inbox went dead and Harper sighed. She didn't like how close Dylan's theories were getting to her own, considering hers didn't make a lot of sense. She set her phone down, waiting for him to text back.

As she laid there, Harper looked at a clock on the wall which read 6:53. She checked her phone again before looking back at her message with Bailey. Even though she didn't remember much of her dream, she remembered that a man in black had attacked Bailey, and that she had to stop him from attacking someone again. But she didn't know exactly who she was protecting.

Suddenly, a new text came through from Dylan. well, that took longer to write down than I expected!

Um, care to tell me what you wrote?

Um... Can I not? I don't want you telling at me when it makes sense.

I can't yell at you. No school, remember?

you will find a way to yell at me.

Whatever. Do you have any more things I should know about?

Not really. 

Great. Now GO TO SLEEP!!!

Ha ha! I don't need sleep!

YES YOU DO! I WILL PERSONALLY COME TO YOUR HOUSE AND KNOCK YOU OUT OF YOU DON'T SLEEP!

Why do you care so much about me sleeping?

BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T BEEN SLEEPING! AND YOUR BODY NEEDS TO SLEEP!!

Since when we're you my biology teacher?

Whatever. Just go to sleep.

It's 7 am. I ain't sleeping.

Yes, you are. I don't care if it's for 5 minutes, or 5 hours. Just sleep!

Fine. But you'd better not lecture me tomorrow.

I won't if you go to sleep.

Okay, I guess that's fair.

Random question: how many of you recognized the music references that I made him the last two chapter titles? I just really like music, and I thought it would be fun to make music refrences. Anyways, see you all soon!
