back at the dorms

After seeing everyone again Melissa headed back to the dorms to get some sleep. She had gotten lucky and ended up with a privet dorm which already had her 50' flat screne plasma tv, her top of the line stero system, her laptop, dvd/vcr combo, and about half her wardrob since that was all she could fit of it.

She changed into a pair of black yoga style sweats and a pink cami then got into the queen size bed which the room had since it was privet. Suddenly she felt the temperature in the room drop drastically, she looked over her sholder and saw the figure of a person standing ther looking right at her. The persons eyes and skin were as white as snow. She freaked and ran out of her room

ater turning down a hallway she smacked right into a persons cheast, she looked up too see that it was Reid she just buryed her head right back in his cheast and started to cry

(pov Reid)

He was having trouble sleeping so decided to go and take a walk, he saw Melissa running down the hall in his direction. She smacked right into his cheast, she looked up at him and he could see the fear in her in her just buryed her head back in his cheast again and could tell by the way her sholders were shaking and his shirt was quickly becoming wet that she was crying, so he just wraped his arms around her holding her and did his best to comfort her.

"Lyssa whats going on? What happened?" he asked her softly once she had finally stoped crying. She looked up at his face again and he could see that she was competly terrified and about to start crying again.

"There was someone in my room, but they weren't normal, there eyes and skin were as white as snow"she told him in a shakey voice. He immedietly filled with dread knowing what she was talking about, a darkling.

"Hey its ok, your ok. I'm not gonna let anything happen to you, come on lets get you back to your room so you can get some rest" she just shook her head in protest "please baby, you need to get some sleep, we have to go to class in the morning"

"I just don't want to be alone right now" he could help but feel bad that this had happened to her, and angry that someone would put her through this.

"well what if I were to stay with you in your room, ir you could come back with me to mine and Tylers"he tryed reasoning with her since he really didn't want to leave her at the moment, he alrealy was planning what exactly he was gonna tell Caleb.

" I really don't want to go back to my room right now, and if i was around more people I would probably feel a bit better about sleeping tonight."

"Ok then lets go" the only downside at that moment was having to let her go, but he just took her hand and lead her back to his dorm that he shared with Tyler.

(normal P.O.V. )

when they got to the dorm Reid got a spare blanket and pillows and set up a bed for himself on the floor, forcing Melissa to take his bed. Once he was sure that she was fast asleep he went over to Tylers ber and woke him up.

"Dude what is so important that you need to be waking me up at 2:30 in the morning?" Tyler asked in a groggy voice and then looked over at Reids bed after hearing a nosie "and what the hell is MJ doing in your bed, if you try anything with her Caleb is gonna kill your ass"

"Chill baby boy its not like that, there was a darkling in her room, she freaking and i found her in the hallway and she doesn't want to be alone or back in her dorm so I brought her here"

at this point he had Tylers full attention

"who the hell would send her a darkling, she doesn't even know about the powers"

"I don't know Ty but i intend to find out and make that person pay, but first i have to talk to Caleb about it, but for now I'm gonna keep an eye on her I'm not gonna let anything happen to her, I wouldn't forgive myself if it did"

"you really like her don't you?"

"yea I do, but I don't know what I'm gonna do I can't just go and tell her even though I want to but if stuff like this is going to be happening to her she needs to know so she can protect herself."

"Well we will have to talk to Caleb and see what he says, but he is totally gonna freak when he learns that something went after his baby sister" Reid just sat there thinking about this

"Hey Ty whats if its more of a someone then a something... like what if Chase isn't dead and hes back"

"God Reid I hope not, I hope not"was all Tyler said
