When I was younger
It was impossible to wake me by sound once I'd gone to sleep. This meant that I'd often be late for school and everything else.

One night, I'd gone to sleep. I woke up sometime later, probably to toss and turn, and saw a figure in my window. Everything went black again. I woke up some time later, to find three people round my bed, looking concerned.

What had happened, is that my mother had forgotten her keys. She'd banged on the front door, the back door and threw stones at my window. She'd then knocked on next door's window to have their sons (my age) get up on a ladder to knock on my window.

At this point, I hadn't seen the twins in a while. In this time, they were looking more manly, so when I'd tossed and turned, I'd seen a man in my window.

And promptly fainted.


They actually got in by breaking the back door down, when the lad reported to my mum that he'd seen me wake up, sit up with an expressionless look on my face, and lay back down again as though nothing had happened. We both got a fright that night.
