Beth's POV
Danny pushed me against the airlock door.
"Don't do this Beth or I'll have to lock you in," Danny said.
"I don't understand what you're mad at me for!" I exclaimed.
"You keep hoarding Chris," he yelled. His hand rested on the airlock button.
"Chris, help!"I called. He came running down the hallway searching for me. Danny released me and I sprinted to Chris's side.
"Danny, why would you do this to her!"Chris shouted. He sounded angry but disappointed too.
"To use her as bait," he said a bit suspiciously. He threw Chris into the airlock.
"If you promise you'll spend more time with me than I'll let you out," Danny said. I was sobbing but I knew Danny wouldn't let me do anything to save Chris.
"I promise," he stated with his hand over his heart.
Danny pushed a button, the wrong button. The outside airlock opened.
"No, Chris!"I sat up quickly on my bed. Just a dream, it was just a dream. I heard a knock at the door.
"Beth, is everything okay in there?" He questioned.
"Um…yeah I guess, it was just a nightmare," I replied.
"Do you want to talk about it over a snack before you go back to bed?" he asked politely, almost too politely.
"Yeah, that'd be great, Chris," I stood up awkwardly, found my balance and opened the door. Relieved to see that Chris was still alive, I hugged him really tightly.
"Gee, what was your dream about, anyway?" he grinned. He laid some butter lettuce and a jar of pickles on the counter for us to eat.
"I'm not that hungry, Chris," I said.
"What has gotten into you, nightmares, refusing butter lettuce," from what I could tell he was confused and worried about me.
"I didn't say I didn't want it, can we just split that piece?" I asked softly.
"Oh yeah, sure," he said. He sat down on the couch and motioned me to sit down next to him. I laid my head on his shoulder and curled up beside him, just like on movie nights.
"So…what was your dream about?" He asked. We talked it over for about twenty minutes.
"We better get to bed," he said. I knew that it was really late but I was really comfortable just lying on the couch with him, knowing he was safe, knowing he was with me. Despite all of that biz I was really tired, though, and…
Chris's POV
Beth was lying beside me on the couch. I could tell that she was sleeping, and I could tell she was thinking about me. That was just another one of my emotion lord powers. I knew the guys shipped us already, and I didn't want them getting all up in our biz, so I carried her, bridal style, back to her room I laid her gently in bed and covered her up. I kissed her on the cheek, tiptoed out of the room and shut the door quietly behind me. I walked down the hallway and opened my bedroom door to find that Catbug was sleeping on my bed. I set it on the floor and lay on my bed. I was out like a light.
