Sweet Dreams [Hufflepuff Table]

[cronon]

Alexander watched the two girl's interacting once more and was as lost for words as ever. What did he do? What did any guy do in that kind of situation? Well, if he had the testosterone, of just any man, Alexander would have tried to take on a couple Deva himself...but that wasn't really his forte. Some 'hero' he could be. Some help he would be in this whole situation.

Alexander scratched his neck, trying to let the fact that his skin was drying up not effect him. Soon it'd be oily, and then pimple infested but he tried his hardest not to think about it. Not when there was so much else at stake, rather than his own skin issue. He sighed and put a hand on Krissy's shoulder, lightly squeezing it. "She's right...they can't hurt you, and what can...we won't let them." Alexander didn't know how exactly he'd help, but he'd try anything in his power to do so.

Nightmares couldn't hurt her, this was indeed a very true and very obvious fact that Lianna herself would never personally debate on, and while she knew the nightmares couldn't hurt her they did infact scare her and prevent her slumber. That was the problem and there wasn't truthfully much any one of the three of them (herself included) could do about that. While Krissy's embrace continued to comfort, the third year's eyes were becoming more and more heavy as the early morning minutes slowly ticked ever closer toward another hour.

"I know," the third year replied with a weak and tired smile. "but this is like a nightmare..." She paused as her eys closed for the briefest of seconds. "Dreams...are supposed to be...safe...places..." Those brief seconds would turn out to be the equivilent of a good hour and while she would feel no different upon her reawakening, perhaps in that hour something would become better, or perhaps she'd simply have a good dream? Either scenario after all of the living hell she'd been through over the past hours would be a welcome circumstance, even if the chances of either grew slimmer with each second she was awake...
