I wish my brain just wouldn't do this to me.

This morning I got up at 9 but I was so drained that I went back to bed and promptly fell back to sleep until 13:30. While I slept I had a dream about my ex bones. In the dream, I was at home with my mum and I was talking to her as I walked out of my bedroom. I looked down the hallway through the open back door and to my alarm I saw a hooded figure sitting on the little step. From the height, I knew who it was. I went to shout to my mother to call the police but something told me not to... More specifically Bones' voice in my head saying "I wouldn't do that if I were you. Up to you just know the damage I could do will hurt in your waking moments even though you are dreaming." (Probably just my brain but it freaked me right out that Bones was aware it was a dream) I edged down the hallway and opened the back door. Bones tilted his head at the squeak but didn't turn to look at me. "How long have you been sitting here?" I gasped. Bones scoffed "long enough to drink 2 bottles of vodka and smoke a joint. But why would you care?" My eyes narrowed and at this point, the dream faded to black and I could hear muffled talking but I couldn't make any of it out. When the dream faded back in I was restraining Bones as he kept repeating "I don't want to be here anymore." I became more aware of my dream self sadness was growing in my chest and tears pricked my eyes as Bones writhed as if in agony. The dream faded back out yet again and as the dream slowly faded back in again my breathing was ragged. As things came into focus I was doing CPR on Bones not sure why the pool of blood I was kneeling in was too huge for someone to have any blood left in their body to circulate with CPR. (Though my dreams generally depict Bones as some sort of demonic superhuman so this shouldn't be an issue). The dream started to fade again this time in the first-person view like dream me was passing out while I frantically pumped at his chest. It did fade back in again and I was kneeling over Bones he was pale and weak but alive. He looked up at me the blank stare was creepy "watch your back b*tch you'll see me soon." he dead-panned. Dream me recoiled and scrambled to get away as he got up. He lunged and grabbed my wrist pulling me into him and I felt a blade digging into my back just above my kidney. "Non-fatal but would hurt a lot we don't want that do we?" I turned my head to look at him... He looked gaunt and cruel. He dug the blade in more and the dream faded once more. It didn't fade back in this time.
