Anna decided to not study for one and to kick back and read a nice quidditch magazine. Which of course, it good for the over loaded brain. It was around 11 o'clock at night and for some reason, she wasn't tired at all. Anna's pjs were already on and her hair was hanging down as if she was about to hit the sack. Maybe the idea of quidditch just kept her wake for a while. After all, it was the best sport in the whole bloody world. However, as 11 turned to 12, her fellow gryffindor people started to go up to their respected dorms, but not Anna.
She just kept reading aout how well the peruvian team had been doing this season and watching the french players zoom across the pages. Now at 12:30, Anna's eyes began to drop until the magazine slipped from her hands and onto the floor and her head to one of the cusions on the sofa.
As she slipped from reality into dream land, Anna's head was full of happy thoughts until an image of her grandfather appeared just as he was before that day. She was happy and thought he was alive again, that his death had just been a nightmare until a flash of green light came and her grandfather's body fell limply onto the ground. Anna began to squirm around on thhe sofa and tears came from her eyes. But she couldn't wake herself up. If someone came and woke her up, she wouldn't be cranky this time.

Having been unable to sleep Nick had snuck out a few hours before when his housemates had begun to drift to their respective dorms. It had been a rather cool night but that hadn't bothered him too much and the fresh air had helped some. Not wanting to get caught out after hours he'd been careful to not stray to close to any destination people may have been. With a small yawn and a check at the time Nick made his way back to the common room and wasn't to surprised to find it had allready been deserted.
As he made his way across the room to the staircase he realized that he'd been wrong when he saw a girl seemingly asleep upon the couch. He'd decided to just let her sleep up until he realized that she was crying and squirming where she lay. With a slight look of concern on his face he walked over to her and squatted beside her not sure if it was wise to wake her but at the same time not wanting the girl to just keep crying in her sleep.
Nick stretched out his hand and softly shook her shoulder to wake her. "Miss... Hello," he said a little awkwardly since he wasn't quite sure how to address her in her current state and hoped he didn't startle her too much.

The dream got worse by the second as other figures began chasing her. However, Anna felt a hand touch her in both worlds and for some reason it woke her up from the nightmare. Anna's body snapped upright to realize she was still in the Gryffindor Common room. Was all of that really a dream? It felt so real. At first she didn't realize that there was a guy next to her, but she did when reality came back.
"Um, what the heck happened?" Anna asked as she wiped tears and cold sweat from her face. This must have been one horrible dream if she was in a state like this.

(ooc: Sorry about not posting back sooner)
Nicholas looked at her with slight concern written all over his face, "I think you were having a nightmare," he replied with a slight smile as he watched her wipe away the tears that had drifted down her face. "I came in and i found you squirming and crying. I thought i should wake you since you seemed so sad or scared. Are you okay?" Nico asked truly worried for the girl though he'd just met her only a moment before.

(it's alright, I've been kinda busy myself)
Anna was still trying to figure out what had just happened. Her body was shaking slightly and the sickening feeling in her stomach just wouldn't go away. What the bloody hell was she having that dream for again? She thought she had stopped having that nightmare, but it wouldn't seem so.
"Thanks" Anna said to the boy, "For waking me." But the one question about her being okay, may have been a mystery still. So she replied, "To tell you the truth, I don't know."

"No problem," Nico replied with a bright smile as he looked at the girl. "Just thought I should wake you since you were crying. Didn't really seem like a dream you wanted to be in," he couldn't help frowning at her next words since they didn't actually bode well. He just hoped that whatever was going on with the girl wasn't too serious and that she'd feel better soon. "Oh by the way i'm Nicholas Silvano," Nick said, realizing that he still hadn't introduced himself to her.

"Anna Becket." She said introducing herself. "And trust me, it really wasn't a dream I wanted to be in." Anna added, though she didn't really want to go into details. After all, she was still shaking slightly. Though there was one thing she wanted to ask Nicholas. "Um, just curious though. How did you know I was down here?"

"Oh that..." Nick replied with a slightly rueful expression as he ruffled his hair slightly with one hand. "I suppose I can tell you as long as you swear not to bust me," he replied with a smile as he looked at Anna, "I couldn't sleep so I snuck out. I figured that maybe a walk around the castle and grounds would help me get tired. It did but then when I came in her I found you on the couch."
"I'd intended to just go up to my dorm and go to sleep when I noticed that you seemed to be crying and squirming. I didn't want to just leave you like that," Nico said with a soft smile as he looked at the girl. "As things stand now I think i'm no longer tired... again," he said with a laugh.

"You snuck out? I thought everyone did that." Anna smiled. "I do too, so don't worry about me selling you out." It was true and most of the times when Anna left the common room she never was caught. Even though she felt her luck would run out sooner or later. "But really, thanks for waking me up..." Anna continued. She was starting to feel a little better, unless you count the slight nausia that was still roaming around her system.
"But, I'm sorry that I kept you up." she apologized.

"Yeah I did," he laughed at her words since she made all the sense in the world. "Shouldn't have surprised me that people do and thanks i'd appreciate that wouldn't look to good if I already get in trouble so soon," Nick replied with a smile as he looked over at Anna. "It really wasn't any problem I'm sure you would have woken me up if you'd found me like that too. By the way would you like anything?" he asked his smile still in place since Anna seemed like a rather nice girl to talk to.
"Don't worry about it. To be honest I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to fall asleep even if i'd tried," Nick replied with a smile, letting her know that she shouldn't worry about it at all and to make her feel better about the whole situation.

"No, I'm fine thanks" Anna replied to Nick's offer. Slowly, the nausia began to vanish, but more likely Anna wouldn't be able to move for a little while longer. And flashes of the dream still kept flashing into her mind. But at least Nick was there for a little while helping her feel better. "But you know, some prefects are pretty cool when they see you wandering around. Only bad thing is they still send you back. Sometimes I wish I had an invisibility cloak, but where would be the fun it that right?" she smiled. "But, I just hope you don't mind staying awake all night and sleeping all day tomorrow..."
