"Sky, I-"

"No Bloom. I should apologize," he interrupted.

"But I-"

"No Bloom; you didn't do anything. I should have been more understanding. You have been through a lot Bloom, and I shouldn't be selfish."

"You weren't selfish. I shouldn't have stepped away."

"Bloom, I was, and I'm sorry. And now you need to rest."

"What? Why? It's 4 pm."

"You barely slept last night, and if you were asleep, you slept three hours and woke up screaming...Bloom please go get some rest."

"Okay, I will," she walked to her bed and lied down, trying to sleep, and it wasn't long until she succeeded.

"Hello little firefly."

"Valtor! What are you doing here?"

"Oh, I'm not there, but this is the only way I can come near you now, so here I am."

"What do you mean the only way? Where am I?"

"Oh, you don't know little firefly? You're dreaming."

"What?!"

Valtor stepped closer to the fairy. She tried to step away, but Valtor had control of her and her dream. When he was just inches away he caressed her face with his hand, and Bloom immediately started crying again.

"Leave. Please," she pleaded.

"Oh, but I can't firefly. Only you can leave here. When you leave, I will disappear."

"How do I leave this place?"

"And why would I tell you that?"

Bloom didn't respond; she knew it was a stupid question. Valtor stepped closer grasping Bloom tightly, pressing his lips on hers.

"I missed the taste of your lips firefly," he whispered when he was done.

Bloom felt disgusted with herself again, tears streaming down her face. "Why don't you leave me alone?"

"Because I simply can't. I want you and you know that, so why would I?"

"Because I don't want you! Leave please."

"I told you, you're the only on that can leave," he pressed his lips on her once more when suddenly Bloom felt the feeling of his lips disappear.

"Bloom, wake up Bloom."

She recognized the sound of Sky's voice. "What? Where am I?" she said still sleepy.

"You're in your room...when I came in to check on you, you were crying in your sleep, so I woke you up. What happened?"

"He was there..." she cried, "and I don't know how to get out when he's there!"

"Bloom calm down. Who is there, and where is there?" Sky walked to the bed to sit on it.

"Valtor. He's in my dreams."

"You had a nightmare. Don't worry; it will be okay."

"No, it wasn't a nightmare! He was there, and I couldn't control my dream. He could, and I couldn't get away."

"Bloom don't worry. You're safe now your with me."

Bloom was terrified. She didn't know what to do, and if she went back to sleep would Valtor be there again? She lied in bed for a long time thinking and crying.

Flora was in the forest; Stella was outside lying in her precious sunshine. Tecna was in one of the classrooms practicing, and Musa went down to the music room to play on her guitar. The Specialists were called back to Red fountain for a special mission. Bloom decided to get dressed and go to Miss F.. Maybe she knew how Valtor could get in her dreams. When she was dressed in her normal clothes - her skirt was a little longer, but beyond that there was nothing different - she walked to Miss F's office.
