Michael was staring into Katie's eyes, which was really beginning to unnerve her, but luckily, or unluckily, whichever way you would have it, Steve came up and started apologizing profusely. "Sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going." Was one of the few things anyone could make out from the babbling. "It's okay, I'm fine." Katie tried to reassure Steve, who just blushed at little and backed off when he saw the look his captain was giving him, it just scream I'm going to let this go, but make one wrong step and you're done for. It was the kind of look that would make anyone feel like they're treading on thin ice.

"So then Katie, are you sure you're okay?" Michael asked as he held onto Katie's hand and looked her in the eyes. Katie blushed heavily as her friends began to chuckle, no doubt planning how to get her and Michael together. 'But it's impossible, he has a girlfriend already!' Katie thought to herself while she let out a little. "I'm alright; you don't have to worry over me." She said softly while rubbing the back of her head with the hand Michael wasn't holding. "Well then, let me walk you home." Steve had backed away from Michael and the girls, it was pretty obvious that the Katie girl was the one Michael was planning to make his girlfriend, if not he would have just asked if the person Steve just ran over if they were okay, and if the person said yes, then he would just apologize for Steve, even though Steve would have already apologized, and walk away, not that this had happened before, no, Steve wasn't that uncoordinated.

Michael still stared at Katie, oh how he wanted to pull her up against a wall, pressing himself against her heat and devouring her mouth as she fought him for dominance. 'Don't think those thoughts in broad daylight!' Michael thought to himself as he focused on what Katie was babbling about. "Oh, I'm at the Holiday Inn on Brock Street, you don't have to walk me there, it's only five minutes away." Katie said as she withdrew her hand for Michael's and waved his concern off. "You're not from New York?" Michael asked as he felt something inside him break, how would he romance her if she was not here forever. "No silly, my friends and I are from Texas." 'Well, that explains that cute Texan accent that just makes me want to push her up against me and ravage her.' Michael thought. "Well then, I'll walk you there." He said as he hooked his arm through Katie's and started walking along with her, Katie's friends giggling and whispering behind them and he just knew Steve was looking at him with a smirk plastered over his face.

Precious watched the encounter from a tree as she seethed. Michael was hers! No one else was going to claim him, take him, have him over and over again. No one. 'Don't worry Michael, soon we shall be together again, in all meanings of the statement.' Precious thought, if Michael couldn't control himself at Liberty, then how could he control himself period. 'You're needy Michael, you need me badly, so much you can't control yourself.' Precious thought as she smiled happily and retreated back to her apartment, plotting a way to get Katie out of her hair.

Michael and Katie were walking ahead of the giggling Roxie and Eve. 'They're getting the general idea aren't they?' He thought happily to himself, to bad Katie didn't seem to understand how much he wanted her. 'But that will all change in next to no time.' Michael thought determinedly as he walked the girl of his dreams (Quite literally of his dreams to.) to her and her friends room, Roxie and Eve went in, but he grabbed onto Katie's arm before she could go inside. "So, do you want to go out for coffee sometime?" He asked, Katie's eyes lit up, coffee, the key to her heart, she was about to say yes to, when she remembered a certain raven haired girl she caught Michael with before. "Sorry, but I don't think your girlfriend would appreciate that very much." She said as composedly as she could, but on the inside she really wanted to go with Michael. "Girlfriend?" Michael asked, he didn't expect that one coming. "Yes, the black haired chick I saw you making out with in the Statue of Liberty." Katie replied before going into her room and practically slamming the door in Michael's face, speaking of which, it was very pale. 'She saw that? Oh well, at least she didn't see how far that went!' He sighed and shook his head sadly, before perking up slightly. 'Well, I'm sure once she knows I broke it off with Precious she'll be mine. Besides, no girl can stand up to the seduction of Michael Parker!' He thought happily before making his way out of the hotel and to the research facility.

Katie lay in her soft pajamas, she didn't really want to have another screwed up dream, they were getting weirder and weirder, what was next, her and Michael making out? Oh wait, that already happened. 'Oh well, I can't let myself become sleep deprived.' She thought as she closed her eyes and soon sleep crashed over her like a tsunami wave, speaking of water.....

Katie was in the same skimpy bikini, except instead of being on the beach like all other times; she was actually waist deep in the cold water. Katie and shivered and wrapped her arms around her shivering figure, and soon another pair wrapped around her, and not really caring because she knew this was a dream, Katie leaned into the embrace, when she felt two additions to the chest that should not have been there and the friendly embrace turned hostile, Katie fought her way out of it and turned to see the chick, Michael's girlfriend, in he skimpier then Katie's bikini and holding a sharp, jagged, rusty looking knife, Katie tried to will herself awake, but it wasn't working! She closed her eyes and the arm holding the dagger swooped down, but nothing hit her! Katie looked up and saw Michael, he took the blow for her and now he was holding the bloody dagger with one hand while the other covered his wounded shoulder. Katie began retreating further into the water as she watched as Michael crushed the dagger, which turned into dust, and likewise with the girl, soon all that was left of her was the wound she made on Michael's shoulder. Katie worriedly ran, or tried to run, it was kind of hard when you were chest deep in water, to go help him. "Are you alright? I'm- I'm sorry this- it's all my fault!" She stuttered even though she knew it was just a dream and didn't matter. Michael smiled and took his hand away from the wound and Katie gasped, it was so bloody and gory. "You should get out of the water, the salt will sting and then it'll burn like hell." She grabbed onto Michael arm and started dragging him ashore, but it didn't exactly work, she pulled and she pulled but he wouldn't budge, and a cocky smile was plastered on his face, Katie humped. "Okay, if you don't want to go ashore, what do you want?" She asked, before she realized her mistake in asking such a question when Michael's grin widened and he leaned closer to her, Katie was practically glued to the spot. "You." He whispered sensually in her ear, and Katie felt that, for once in these dreams, she didn't want to wake up......

FASH: It's kind of like a cliffhanger, the dream is like, a huge, page full of text. Anyways, I hope you like it so far, review!
