What on Earth was he doing in her room? Lately Carey had been checking up on Fiona because of her nightmares. It had really been starting to scare him.

He had been standing by her window when she heard her moan a little. Carey turned towards the bed and walked towards the girl russtling her bed sheets. He walked closer so her could get a good look at her face.

She looked so scared. Sitting down next to her, Carey's eyebrows came together in confusion. What could she be dreaming about?

All of a sudden, he heard her give a quick cry and he saw her shoot up right next to him. Right into his arms.

He could tell Fiona really wasn't sure what had just happened. But he felt her relax after a few moments as Carey rubbed a caring hand across her back.

"Shhh.." he whispered in her ear, "You'll be alright." Carey held on to her tighter.

He heard her sigh and her stopped rubbing her back. She pulled away from him; not completly, mind you; but, far enough away so she could see his face. And, he may have stopped rubbing her back, but in no way did that mean he took his hand away.

"Carey...what are.."

"I was worried about you, Fiona. I came in your room before you woke. I hope you don't mind."

"No, I don't mind. I was just surprised...that's all." She leaned forward into his chest letting him hug her once more.

He began rubbing her back again, placing his chin atop her head. He could feel her relaxing again and her breathing become a steady pace.

He smiled slightly. This was the first time anyone had ever fallen asleep in his arms before. It felt nice. Having a gorgeous girl fall asleep-- Wait a minute. Had he just called Fi gorgeous? He had. And, there was no reason not to. She was gorgeous and wonderful, and always made Carey happy to be around her. But, he was much to old for her. There was no way Fi could ever like an old man like him. Your 21, Carey. She's 17. It just wont work.

He sighed and tried to pull back from her to lay her down. Hopefully no more bad dreams would come.

"N--no..don't go, Carey.." he heard a soft whisper.

"I have to Fi. You'll see me in the morning." he tried to pull away but felt a tight grip on his arm.

"Don't...please Carey?" she looked up to him seeing the bottom of his chin. He looked down to her, not realizing how close they had become. She stared at his lips for a moment. He had such beautiful lips.

He lowered his head just a little to where there mouths were almost touching. He heard someting in the distance fall off her dresser. He suddenly snapped back to reality. Pulling back, he apologized to her, and said he was going to go sleep on the couch.

"Ill see you in the morning, Fi."

"Yah.." she whispered softly.

Muahahaha! I'm evil. No kissing for those two. **cackles again** Angst is so fun. I luv angst. And, again, sorry about the bad spelling, I really don't feel like running a spell check. Plus, I have to write the next chapter. I'm feeling no writers block, so, I got to write them before it comes back to me.
