At first, it was the same dream she had been having since she met Nana. Her running, seeing the gun, seeing Charlie, but instead of it turning black after the gunshot, the image changed as a pain went through her thigh. Then the image of Monica on the floor. Then things turned easy, and the tension in her muscles waned.

Once he was sure he had stood under the faucet long enough, he turned it off. Stepping out, he automatically grabbed a towel before drying off.

Then, a face she knew all too well flickers into view, tiny hands reaching out. The hand near her side twitches, a tiny smile tugging at the corner of her lips, her breathing even. That little figure grew into what he would have looked like now, and her breath shudders just a little.

Charlie tied the towel around his waist before he walked back into the bedroom. As she shuddered, he froze where he was. Drifting his gaze to her, he held his breath. Was she having a nightmare? Unsure what to do, he waited a few more minutes to see if she would wake.

Charlie let out a breath after a moment, hiding in the shadow. "Tae?" he questions, gaze flicking back and forth.

"Tae?"
She blinks and looks over, dazed but alert, and she sits up. "I'm okay," she murmurs, realizing she wasn't asleep for very long. "I'm okay."

"I'm okay,"
"Are you?" replies immediately. Realizing what he inquired, he shook his head as he walked to the dresser. Pulling out a pair of fresh pajama pants and a shirt he stepped back into the bathroom. Changing behind the door he tilted his head in thought.

"Are you?"
"It was just a dream," she murmurs and closes her eyes for a moment, taking a breath and letting the tension ebb away. Her hand gingerly rubbed at her thigh to dull the throb.

"It was just a dream,"
"A nightmare? " asks as he walks out in pajamas. Walking over, he sat on the end of the bed.

"A nightmare? "
"I'm not sure," she murmurs. "It was just a dream in the beginning, then I saw Denmark, and after that I saw something else, but what I'm not sure."

"Did you see what it looked like?"
She thought back for a long moment and sat up, brushing her hair back from her face. "I just remember it being black. Black and grey, and it looked more beast-like than man, but that's about all I can recall. The image was so swift that it didn't register."

Charlie frowned deeply. "Some black and gray monster?"
