As soon as my senses return, I pulled away, and heard her murmur, "I love you."
She must have be dreaming of better times with dad, I thought, as I carefully pull the covers over her, and she rolls over.
"Thank you, Nick."
Her voice freezes me as I stepped out of her door.
Had she known it was me when she kissed me, or did she wake up in between the kiss and me pulling the covers over her?
In a fog of confusion, I walk across the hallway to my room, and stripped down to my boxers, without turning on the light.
I felt my way over to my old bed, wondering if I'm going to get any sleep tonight. The only good thing about being alone is that hopefully Vage will come get me tonight. And when she did, I will have to plead with her to talk to me. I need her help and advice in order to defeat the demons. I can't do it alone. Beyond that, I want to know what I can do to make amends to her.
