Complications
Chapter Eighteen
Comforts
That night I had a night mare it was exactly like the one I had all the time when I was little the day my parents died except this time when I went to the door it wasn't just Sydney and Marco. It was Severus too and when we were all coming back from going to the ice cream shop I...I...I w..we were in the car driving home and the smoke was spotted and Marco wasn't watching the road he was just following the smoke. I had dropped a toy that I kept in the car in the floor board and since Severus was in the back seat with me and Amio he offered to get it for me. Marco accidentally ran the car into a telephone pole and...and Severus was flung forward his head hit the back of the front row seat and every one in the car herd the sickening crack of bones as Severus's head was barely hanging by the fractured neck bone. Then as I tried to sit him up obviously just wishful terrified thinking that he was still alive. His head fell off and rolled onto the floorboard. Blood pumping out of the still beating heart I remember screaming. "SEVERUS! SEVERUS! SEVERUS !" I felt the salty tears running down my face then every thing went black and I felt warm and consoled in an interestingly sad sort of way.
I felt warmer and more well rested then I ever had in my entire life and for once in my life I was relaxed and felt safe. When I'm normally very tense just waiting for something anything to happen. I felt as if I could just lay in this haven forever I opened my eyes and I saw black as the night of a new moon in the country and it was soft then I remembered what had happened in my dreams and that consoled feeling and realized that I was probably screaming before and. Mph I wonder... I moved my head around to see and sure enough the darkness was Severus's hair. He looked beautiful by moon light with his pale skin tone and dark hair flipped over the pillow. The only way I could think to describe it was vamprish and I don't know why maybe I'm just crazy but I've always liked the creepy vampire vibe but the only thing I couldn't get was that if I had a night mare how come he hadn't returned to his own room once I was consoled?
Then he started moving around and grumbling as if he was going to wake up soon and I realized that with the foggy sleep laden mind of a Dom the tangled limb position we were in wouldn't exactly be just friendly and I didn't want him to get the wrong idea. So I carefully scooted away but obviously not carefully enough because you know what? The bed ended! It just ended! I ended up on the floor landing on my back winded and in slight pain considering I hit my head on the bed side table. The crash fully alerted Severus to this side of the dream wall. He popped up and looked over the side of the bed and very unnecessarily started to laugh at me as I was trying to breath again he seemed amused by my un-coordination and as soon as I was able to speak and breath again I just had to have a sarcastic comment to his chortling. "Oh Ha Ha!" He just smiled sweetly and left the room. I sighed got up and followed him like a good little sub but he closed the door to the kitchen in my face! Then reopened it and said. "Sorry. Lunch is a surprise your not allowed in the kitchen until it's ready and then we'll eat in the living room. I'll bring your coffee out in a minute or two or when it gets ready basically but to apologies for worrying you so bad yesterday today is all about you. Ok? Ok!" Then he smiled went back into the kitchen and I was left to do ... who the fuck knows what?!.
I flopped on the couch and just waited for a whole five minutes patiently until Severus came out of the kitchen with my coffee made just the way I like it. So one cup of coffee, three books, hundreds of labels and titles, three bathroom trips and two hours later Severus finally came out of the kitchen trooped by five house elves hands filled with up to three platers of food. It was a feast! The night was wonderful we stayed in Severus's room getting to know each other all day asking questions getting into serious and playful conversations and that's the way things were any time he just didn't come back one mourning that is exactly pretty much what would happen. Normally minus me falling off the bed though. I still visited Amio and every thing but my life pretty much easily fell into a rut for a while nothing catastrophic happened but it was comfortable.
