Note: Obviously, I don't own Slugterra. If I did, I would make more episodes. I hope you like :)

"I'll ask you one more time: where does Eli Shane come from?" Dr. Blakk snarled at me. I wriggled in vain; but the ropes were too tight.

"I'll never tell you!" I yelled. He chuckled. He pointed his blaster at me, saying, "Then you and everyone you love will die. An especially painful death is waiting for Eli." Inside his blaster was a Goon Doc, and it snarled at me. He pulled the trigger…

Trixie's POV

"NO!" I screamed. Bluster awoke, looking alarmed.

Only just a dream, Trixie, just a dream, I thought.

"Go back to sleep, Bluster," I said, and he promptly fell asleep. I sat up and looked around my room. Everything was normal. With a sigh of relief, I stood up and left my room. The air felt cold, especially since I was only wearing black shorts and an oversized blue shirt with a picture of a Phosphoro on it. I walked down the stairs to the kitchen. As I walked through the doorway, I bumped into someone. I squeaked, then I realised it was Eli Shane.

"Whoa, Trixie, what are you doing here?" he asked me. He switched the lights on.

"I could ask you the same question," I replied, regaining my composure.

"Woke up early and couldn't sleep," he said. His hair was messy, but that still made him look cute.

"Couldn't sleep either and had a nightmare," I said. "Do you want a hot chocolate?"

"Yeah," he grinned. He went to the lounge and I started making two hot chocolates. I even put in marshmallows. I carried the two mugs into the lounge where Eli was waiting.

"Two hot chocolates coming up," I joked. Eli grinned.

"Thanks, waitress," he teased. We both sat on the opposite sides on a couch, not looking at each other, just sipping and thinking.

"Um, Trixie… what was your nightmare about?" Eli asked, interrupting my train of thought.

"I don't want to talk about it," I said flatly. He scooted closer to me and I looked at the floor. He used his index finger to raise my chin. I suddenly had an urge to kiss him. We looked at each other, our hot chocolates forgotten.

"You know you can tell me anything, Trixie," he said softly.

"Fine, I'll tell you," I relented. Eli relaxed. Suddenly, I stood up.

"But only if you can catch me!" I yelled playfully. I ran up the stairs, with Eli right behind me. For some reason, I ran into my bedroom. He followed me and shut the door. The door swung and clicked, locking immediately.

Eli's POV

I grabbed Trixie around the waist and smiled playfully.

"Now that I've caught you, are you going to tell me?" I asked her. Her playful expression changed into something serious.

"I'm not going to run anywhere, so you can let me go," she assured me. I blushed, realizing I still had an arm around her slender waist. We sat down on her bed.

"My nightmare was about Dr. Blakk. He had me tied up and…" her voice faded off. I gestured for Trixie to go on.

"Yelled at me to tell him where you came from," she whispered. "I said no, and he said everyone I loved and I would die, and you would suffer an extremely painful death." My facial expression turned very serious.

"Trixie, I want you know that I would never let that happen to you," I said. "Even if it did, I would come after you. And… I love you."

Trixie's POV

I stared at Eli. Did he just say he loved me? He looked very serious, and I started blushing.

"I… love you too," I replied. We both smiled, and Eli leaned very close to me…

Third Person POV

They both leaned in closely, and their lips met. Eli pulled Trixie closer to him. Trixie pulled away. Eli looked at her.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"Nothing," she smiled. "Thank you, Eli, for being there for me."

"I would do anything for you, Trix," he replied.
