It is time

They say bad things happen in the night, but that thought never crossed my mind as I got under the bed covers. After a tedious day I just wanted to get in bed and close my eyes. I picked up the bible on the nightstand and tried to read a few verses but it's like my eyes had a mind of their own. I kept going over the same words over and over until eventually I gave up. I guess I slept within a few seconds, because I found myself dreaming.
I dreamt that someone was holding me down while another was forcing something down my throat. I tried to scream but no sound came out, I tried to fight them off but to no avail as the person who held me down was straddling my chest. I couldn't see their faces as they were wearing cloaks with hoods but I could feel their touch and smell their scent. I tasted rather than saw what was shoved down my throat. It tasted raw and bloody, I tried to spit it out but nothing happened, 'it is time' one said in a growling voice.

I woke up sweaty and screaming, with a weird taste in my mouth. With shaky hands I grabbed the bible and pressed it to my chest. I just sat there, terrified of going back to sleep.
Around dawn I finally dozed off and thankfully didn't have another nightmare. When I got up again, I was feeling much better and decided to put the whole thing behind me. I picked up a towel and headed for the shower.
'Good morning,' said one of my house mates, 'don't rush, Marian is in there and you know what that means,' she added as she noticed the towel, 'well I am already late for the office so she will just have to share,' I said as I approached the bathroom door.
'Hey what....,' she started then grinned when she notice it was me, 'late again, that man of yours shouldn't be keeping you out late,' she said as she continued putting on make-up. I just smiled and quickly started undressing. I got under the water and briskly started rubbing soap over my body.
Marian was still in front of the mirror when I came out of the shower, I playfully pushed her out of way and started blow drying my hair, 'okay okay, I am leaving,' she said as she gathered her things, ‘by the way, what is wrong with your chest, you have nasty bruises,' she added, before leaving.
I felt a chill down my spine as I looked down my chest and for the first time noticed the bruises. But before I could gather my senses I was assaulted by the horrible smell in the dream and the weird taste in my mouth. Involuntarily my hand went to my mouth, it came back with blood. Then I felt something raw and wet in my mouth. I felt rather than saw someone behind me. I turned and found one of the creatures in my dream standing before me 'it is time,' he growled. I tried to scream but I was suddenly enveloped in darkness.
