"I think I'll sleep on the couch" I said, earning a disapointed look from Dave.
I smiled and went to get a blanket and a pillow to sleep on. I came back and set the pillow and blanket on the couch.
"I'm gonna pack it in for tonight" Dave yawned.
"Yeah, me too" I said, laying my body on the couch.
I closed my eyes and pulled the covers over my face. I could hear Dave's footsteps dissipating. I tried my best to go to sleep but I just wasn't tired. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't bring myself to sink into a peaceful slumber. After about half an hour of tossing and turning later, I managed to sleep for a few hours. The dream I had was so vivid, I thought it was real. Dave and I were in D'Amico's warehouse, unarmed. Dave and I both had our fists up, but everyone else had guns trained on us. I patted my chest and thighs, finding I still had on kevlar on. Dave did too, I could see it through his costume. I turned my attention back to D'Amico, who was walking dramatically down some stairs.
"Well, well, well. Kick-Ass is back. I hope you're ready to die this time. And Hit-Girl, one of the most brutal, cold-blooded and highly trained superheros ever to walk on this earth" Chris said, dramatically.
I half-smiled, half-grimaced at him after hearing the words he used to descibe me. They were right on the money. Dave looked raging, like he would explode at any minute. The only thing keeping him back were the assault rifles trained on him.
"Why don't you call off your guys and fight me like man" Dave taunted.
"Because he's too much of a pussy" I answered him, interupting Chris.
"Fine, only aim at Hit-Girl" Chris ordered and all of the guys aimed at me with Snap, Cadence and Precision. It was almost Army-like, the way they were set up, followed every order and knew commands given in the military.
"C'mon Kick-Ass, come fight"
Dave ran at Chris and before Dave even got close, he was picked off by a sniper. The bullet hit his head, his body falling limply and lifelessly to the floor.
"DAVE!" I screamed.
"Finally" Chris laughed.
"You bastard" I screamed, tears streaming down my cheeks.
I rushed Chris and as soon as I did, bullets started flying everywhere, My mind made it seem like everything was going slow-motion. 'I am gonna kill him, resurrect him and then kill him again' I thought. I saw a bullet heading for my head, and I dodged it. Other bullets were whizzing by my head, bosy and legs, some close enough to scratch my cheek and other parts of my body. I saw bullets flying out of about 15 rifles, but one bullet imparticular was my main focus. As soon as the bullet was mere centimeters from my head, ending my life...I woke up. I was sweating and panting hard. That was the worst nightmare I've ever had in my life. There was no way I was sleeping by myself that night without having the same nightmare again. I thought of something and a small smile crept onto my lips. I stood up and walked to Dave's bedroom. As I passed the kitchen, the time on the clock hanging over the bar read 2:39am. I walked upstairs and slowly walked into his room.
"Dave?" I whispered. No reply.
"Dave?" I whispered again.
"Hmm" Dave said, sleepily.
"I had a bad dream, can I sleep with you?" I asked, using my sweetest little girl voice.
"Mindy, aren't you a bit too old to-"
"Please" I interupted.
"Fine" He answered and I could tell he was smiling. I crawled into bed next to him and pulled the covers over myself. I felt Dave's arm wrap around my belly, pulling me closer to him. I blushed, but Dave would never notice. I smiled and fell asleep once more, finally slipping into the most peaceful slumber I've ever had.
