Coldness? Warmth? I didn't know what I could feel. Was I wet? Was I Dry? Happy or sad?
The feelings trickled over Amelie like a cool lake on a hot summer day. This was her favourite room in her grandparents' house; She visited them often, although Amelie never tired of visiting. She loved going to stay with her grandparents, to see them of course but mostly because of the Dream Room. Amelie's grandpa had a very special job; Probably one of the most important jobs in the world. He was the Dream Man. He collected lost Dreams that had been thrown away or misplaced and kept them in jars in the Dream Room until someone came to claim them.

Amelie picked up a small jar. She put her eye to the glass and saw the emptiness slowly dissolve into a dream; a small child swimming in the depths of the sea. In his hand he held a small plush teddy bear that floated along beside him.The boy swam silently on until he reached a cave. The Cave was swarming with fish, that were every colour of the rainbow. The floor of the cave held a treasure chest that gleamed in the dark. Handfuls of gold scattered the floor that was studded with multicoloured gem stones. The boy's eyes widened and he swam forward. It was then that the Dream ended with a pop. Amelie put the small jar down on the heavily laden shelf and picked up another from the shelf below.

This one was larger and laced with dust. Amelie looked into the jar and watched another dream unravel before her eyes. This one looked dark and menacing. Darkness swirled around the woman. she slept in her bed tossing and turning. The air was thick with fear, you could almost touch it. A hand grabbed her wrist and she fell through the floor into the blackness below. Amelie wrenched her eye from the jar, panting, like she'd just finished a race and fell to the floor, the jar still clasped in her hand. After recovering, she stood up and placed the jar back on the cobwebbed shelf. The owner of this dream would not come back to claim it in a hurry.
