Chapter 16- Just a Dream
Sayid woke with a start, sitting up so fast he knocked Alex sideways. He was breathing hard, covered in a cold sweat.
Alex put a hand on his shoulder. "What's wrong?" She asked sleepily.
"N-nothing. I just had a bad dream."
"What about?"
Sayid looked at her. His dark eyes were full of tears. Alex sat up and hugged him. "What was it about?"
Sayid fought back his tears. "I had a dream that Ethan killed you. Then he pushed me over a cliff."
Alex shuddered. "It's okay. It was just a dream. Ethan is tied up in a cave, with Locke and Boone guarding him. He's not escaping anytime soon." Alex reassured him.
After making sure he was okay, Alex went back to sleep. Sayid sank down beside her and tried to get back to sleep. But whenever he closed his eyes, all he could see was Ethan's malicious smile.
Author's Note: Aww, come on now! You didn't think I'd actually kill them off, would you? Chapter 27 coming soon!
