Miguel woke up when he heard the Tv downstairs, turned onto his side and saw that it was about 2:15am. He got up and exited his room, walking across the hall to Ali's room and saw that she wasn't in her bed, confirming his suspicions... Ali was having trouble sleeping again.

"She's gotta start taking better care of herself." Miguel mutters, the 16 year old walking downstairs and into the living room. The second he saw Ali though, he stopped.

The 14 year old was sound asleep on the couch. From how she looked, Miguel guessed that his baby sister had been sleeping there for an hour or two and had forgotten to shut off the Tv. Miguel walked over, shutting the Tv off and looked over at Ali, seeing the small scars near her recently healed right eye... Miguel hated what he said to her the night that she was attacked, he blamed himself for what Calderone did... Miguel wondered why Ali didn't blame him.

Miguel reached down and picked Ali up in his arms, Ali instinctively flinching at being touched but Miguel lightly rubbed her shoulder, calming her down.

"Shh... it's okay, Ali." Miguel whispers, taking Ali upstairs as the door to their parents room opened, Martin and Gina checking on the two. "She fell asleep on the couch again." He says, Gina reaching over and brushing her hand against Ali's hair when Ali stirred around, Ali settling back into sleep, Martin lightly kissing Ali on her forehead.

"It's okay, princess. No one's gonna hurt you again." Martin says softly as Gina carefully hugged Miguel.

"I worry about her." Miguel says.

"We all do, Miguel. It's gonna take a lot of time and support for Ali to feel like herself again." Gina says before lightly hugging Ali. Martin and Gina walked into their room as Miguel took Ali into his room, putting the smaller girl in the bed and pulling the covers over her before walking over and lying down, kissing Ali on her forehead.

"Goodnight, little sis." Miguel says before falling asleep himself, both siblings trying to find some peace of mind... at least for tonight.
