*~Chapter 9~*

***Ned and Alexis' Bedroom***

(Ned and Alexis and in bed sleeping peacefully, Alexis in Ned's arms when she suddenly sits up)

Alexis: (visibly shaken) NO!

Ned: Sweetie what is it? (she doesn't respond) It was only a dream go back to sleep. It's ok. It was only a dream. (pulls her into a hug)

Alexis: Do you think you could get me some water?

Ned: Sure. I'll be right back (kisses her on the cheek and leaves the room)

Alexis: Come on Alexis you've worked to hard to let this comeback and haunt you now. Ned isn't going to do that to you. (Ned comes back in and hands her the water) Thank you.

Ned: Are you ok.

Alexis: I am now (kisses him).

Ned: Are you sure you seemed pretty upset?

Alexis: (pause) Yeah I'm sure.

Ned: Is there anything I can do?

Alexis: Just hold me.
