That night I lay in bed staring at the white washed ceiling. So much was on my mind. For a while I'd watched the raise and fall of Yuki's chest. My mind wandered to Neko.

He was the type of person that you couldn't help but protect. Something was strange though. I mean, so much was going on so fast.

After a while of me being lost in my own thoughts, I thought I heard someone crying in the living room. Deciding that it was my duty to make sure everyone was happy, I went into the living room. Neko sat by the window crying his eyes out.

Moonlight flooded into the room as I watched him. He didn't know that I was there until I accidentally walked into the bar. He looked up at me and tried to hide his tears.

"Are you okay?" I asked as I went up to him and wrapped my arms around him. He nodded, but didn't say anything. "Did you have a bad dream?" I asked as he started to sod harder into my chest.

I didn't know what to say. I'd never been a mother to anyone…and yet here I was doing my best to be his. That's just not right. "I have bad dreams sometimes." I admitted to the shaking boy.

He looked up at me as I said this. "It's true, and sometimes I cry too." His ears perked up. "Everyone has bad dreams sometimes. I bet even Yuki does too." He smiled a sad smile.

"I seen someone." He whispered as he wiped tears from his eyes. "Who'd you see?" I asked curious to what he'd been dreaming about.

"I don't remember." He replied. "But I think I knew him." I smiled at him. "Who do you think he was?" "He was close to me." he replied. I stared at the boy for a few minutes. "Did you love him?" I asked looking into his eyes.

"I think I did." He replied as he stood up. "I don't know his name, but I know his heart." He grabbed my hands and began to dance around in a circle. We laughed together for a little while until he yawned.

"I think you should get some sleep." I tucked him into the blankets. "What if the dreams come back?" he asked teary eyed. I smiled at him. There was so much about him that reminded me of me when I was his age.

"Just think of that one special person that you love." I replied. "Do you think he's looking for me?" "I'm sure that he's searching night and day for you." With that I returned to my bed with Yuki.

"Where'd you go, Brat?" Yuki mumble as he rolled over to face me. "Neko woke up." I replied as I faced him. "You're starting to sound like a mother that'd just given birth. I half expected you to say something along the lines of the baby woke up." Yuki teased.

I snorted at him, but none the less smiled back at him. "You're changing too you know. You've been nicer to me." I replied poking him in the chest. "So you've notice too. Maybe I should go see a doctor. What'd Neko want?"

"He had a bad dream. He told me that he saw someone. I asked who and he said he didn't know. Then he said something about someone important to him. He couldn't remember who though." "Don't fret over it, I'm sure he'll remember soon. Until then get some sleep.

a/n: Hey guys. I told myself I wasn't going to write anymore today, but I changed my mind. So here's the 7th chapter. Hope you enjoyed it. Keep a look out for the next chapter. R&R
