A/N: Italics are either Dominique's or Tyler's dreams.

I'm also taking suggestions on ways I can get the two of them to get to know each other. Not necessarily making out or anything physical, just to get a bit of a romance undertone, by having dates, ya know. So SEND ME IDEAS!!!! And please…no smut, or NC17 stuff. You can write that yourself.

Kthanks!!!

VIRGINIA++++++++++++++++

"Lindsay! Erin! Rhiannon! ANYBODY!" Dominique screamed as she ran through the rain.

She was in the middle of nowhere. She couldn't recognize anything. She kept running and running, until she fell. She started to cry. She felt his hand on her shoulder and screamed. When she looked up, she looked directly into the face of her best friend, and she was cold and pale, and her eyes were unseeing.

"NOOOOOOOOOO!!! LINDSAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

TYLER AND REID'S ROOM+++++++++++++++++

Tyler was sitting in his bed, propped up on his pillows, reading. As he read he was starting to feel slightly drowsy, but he couldn't tell if it was from reading so much or from listening to the light steady snores of his roommate.

He turned the page, concentrating on the next paragraph of "Christine" by Stephen King, when he heard crying.

At first he dismissed it, thinking that he was reading too much Stephen king and it was playing with his mind, until it got louder and clearer. He realized it was coming from the room next door…Dominique's room.

He sat straight up in bed, dropping his book to the floor, making it slam shut on the ground (it was hard-cover), which only caused Reid to grumble in his sleep and roll over facing the wall.

He walked quickly over to his door, and opened it quietly. Then he heard a scream.

He ran to the door next to his, clad only in his boxers and an old worn Eagles tee shirt. He wrenched open the door and turned on the light. Dominique was laying in her bead, tossing and turning, shivering from a cold sweat. He was in the process of slowly walking over to her bed, when she sat up and screamed,

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! LINDSAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

He realized she was still sleeping, so he took her by the shoulders and tried to wake her.

"Dom! Dom wake up! DOMINIQUE!" he was lightly shaking her, and she was fighting. When she opened her eyes, she just looked at him.

She reached up and touched his cheek, and pulled back quickly as if it burned her, she looked at him and asked, "Tyler?"

"Yea, it's me." He said, looking puzzled. She flung her self at him, into his arms almost knocking him off her bed. She had her face buried in the crook of his neck and was breathing in his comforting scent. He wrapped his arms around her body, only just noticing that she only had on a blue tank top and a pair of pink lace panties.

'Maybe that's why I always guessed at them'

"Oh Tyler! I'm so scared." She cried into his shoulder, half climbing onto his lap to get as close to him as she could. He gave in, and moved closer while pulling her all the way into his lap. He turned his head when he heard the soft click of the door, and figured it was just Erin or Caleb who had woken up from the commotion.

He used to push her blankets back, and put her down in them.

"Wait! Tyler!" Dominique grabbed his hand. "Could…could you stay? I just don't want to be alone." She pleaded him, both with words and silently.

He grabbed her hips and pushed her over in the bed, and climbed beneath the covers with her. She put her head down on her shoulder and once more breathed in his scent. He smelled like the most beautiful mix of chlorine, Old Spice, and sweat. He was intoxicating.

"Don't ever leave me." She mumbled as she fell asleep once more. Tyler looked down at her with a puzzled look on his face.

'What did she just say?'

NEXT DAY

Erin walked into the kitchen to see Reid and Tyler talking quietly.

"Hey Ty, what was up with Dom last night?" she asked, it had been her who closed the door after making sure everything was allright.

"I have no idea. I was in our room reading when I heard her crying, so I went to make sure she was ok, and she woke up screaming 'No Lindsay!'" Tyler said. He purposely left the last part out.

"Oh God. Well, get used to it boys, we've all had nightmares since Lindsay was taken." She said. She grabbed a packet of oatmeal and put it into the microwave and turned to face them.

"Well then when you get yours, scream extra loud. cause then I can hear you from my room and come into yours." Reid said with a smirk, and a wink.

Erin walked over and put her hands into his hair, purposely massaging his scalp to relax him.

"See Ty, it's real easy." Reid said. His face was both smug and relaxed, but quickly changed into the pain. Erin had locks of his hair in her fingers and was pulling his head back…hard.

"You're a prick you know that. Try not thinking with your penis and more with your brain, you'll get more." She released his hair, and took her oatmeal out of the microwave and into the living room, turning on FUSE.

Pogue, Caleb, and Sarah who had just walked in were laughing hysterically at Reid, who was rubbing at his head from pain.

"Dude, she will be the death of you!" Pogue said through tears.

MID AFTERNOON

"Ok so you're saying that Chase snatched you friend? Uh, Lindsay?" Caleb asked.

"Yes. Lindsay Lie. We were out coming home from a party and we cut through the woods. He and Arianna attacked us and we got separated. The next thing I know I'm being chased and then they were both gone. The only thing I could do was come here and get the girls." Erin said.

Dominique looked up at Tyler, who had his head in his hands and was rubbing his right hand through his stylishly disheveled spikes. She had to resist the rising urge to reached out and play with them. They looked so soft.

Reid looked over at Erin and started to glare at her. She caught this, smiled, waved flirtatiously and walked away. He was spellbound.

"Reid, stop provoking her, she'll have too much fun making you jealous to actually focus on the issue at hand." Rhiannon said, sighing.

"Me? Jealous? Yea right." Reid said.

"It's working pretty damn well. But Rhiannon's right. We need to find Chase and Arianna, and when we do that, we need to get rid of them, and find Lindsay." Caleb said.

"Uh, Dom, Rhi, we kinda have to go. Oh you boys can come too. In fact you should." Erin said. She walked away with a deliberate sway to her hips, and a little shoulder shimmying. Rhiannon simply sighed exasperatedly and pointed at her, raising her eyebrows at Dominique.

"I know I know, and I'll talk to her. Just gimme a sec." Dom said, holding her hands up.

CLARKE HIGH GYMNASIUM

"So you all play volleyball?" Reid asked Rhiannon, who was sitting on the bleachers with them.

"Yea, Erin and Dom are captains and our best players. Erin's best in serving, and Dom's best in the spike. Me at the bunt, and Lindsay was our best setter. We are the Golden Girls of this team. Oh here they come. HEY ELAINA!" Rhiannon waved at some random blonde. The blonde waved back, but was unnoticed by the boys. Pogue had leaned forward to say

"Look up!"

When they did they saw Dom and Erin coming out of the locker room, Tyler suddenly had a hard time swallowing and felt very hot and cramped. Reid's eyebrows disappeared behind his long locks and he coughed a few times. He dare not talk, for he felt his voice rise in pitch.

Dominique was in a pair of black Sophie shorts, rolled one too many times for Tyler's comfort had they been around other guys, and a hot pink tank top that showed a lot of skin. She turned around in front of the bleachers and faced Erin as they were talking, and flipped her head forward to pull her hair into a bun. Tyler felt his pants become one size too small, for she was purposely sticker her butt out towards him with a little wiggle to get his attention. She flipped her hair back up and ran over to the blonde named Elaina and started to set the ball with her. Tyler tore his gaze from her butt in order to watch how she handled the ball, only to find that he safer looking at her butt.

Reid on the other could not figure out why he felt the way he did. He watched Erin walk out, and laughed when Dom decided to tease Tyler. His Baby Boy would finally get a girl, yippee! But he watched intently as her body moved when she and her teammate (some random brunette) started to dance to the music that they had on the radio. The way she moved her hips beneath maroon RAMS team shorts, and the way the belly gem twinkled in the light, for her shirt was tied into a know in her back, and the way her bra and tank top straps fell off her shoulder when she moved too much. He never thought he'd find team shorts and a white tank top sexy but apparently he does.

Pogue was right. These girls would be the death of them.

The boys stayed through practice, and they decided to go out to dinner afterwards. But they ran into a problem.

They were all piled into Rhiannon's 4Runner, singing to the latest tune on the radio, which happened to be Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, with windows down and every one smiling and laughing. For once they all felt at some sort of ease. Until, they crashed.

Rhiannon saw something out of the corner of her eye, in the shape of two people. She swerved to avoid them, and crashed into a tree.

Everyone piled out, and Tyler used to fix Dominique's shoulder, which was dislocated. Caleb and Pogue were too busy worrying about their girlfriends to notice the power balls that were thrown at them. They were taken down.

Tyler instinctually pulled Dominique behind him. As did Reid with Erin. Erin did see the kindness in his gesture but stepped out from behind him and threw the biggest power ball she could muster at Arianna.

Tyler and Reid followed suit, and Dominique went and stood in front of Sarah and Kate to ensure their safety. She felt like she was guarding the pin in dodge ball, she couldn't move or they would lose but she would also loose players until she was the last one left. Then she was pretty much screwed.

After about an hour of fighting with both power and fists, Dominique left her post and ran over to Tyler. She used to fix his broken nose, and kissed him. It didn't register in his brain for a good minute or so that she was kissing him, but when it did he kissed back. Everyone stood there dumbfounded watching as Tyler and Dominique kissed. They kissed with so much passion and longing that they forgot how to breathe or that other people were there.

Erin took pity on them and looked at the others, simply saying, "Let's fix the car"
