Chapter 5: Dream Talk…
Megan's POV
It was great to be awake and seeing that my friends had come out of everything okay. Colby and David had just left my room when I asked, "Was I really out that long?"
Don smiled. That was another thing great about being awake. I realized just then how much I loved Don's smile. "Yep."
"Wow." A long stretch silence fell between us.
"What were you dreaming about?" The question startled me.
I thought for a minute about Don's question. Then I remembered the nightmare. "I heard something that Samuel Kraft had said to me when we had that one case and then I saw someone that I had forgotten about. And he had my friend tied to a metal pole . Then it wasn't my friend." I looked at Don. "It was you." I paused and there was a moment of silence. "Then I woke up."
Don sat there, apparently stunned.
God forbid if the dream was foreshadowing…
"What did he say to you? Kraft."
I hesitated for a moment. Don was a good problem solver if he wanted to find something out. He wouldn't drop it easily. "'There's something else. Something no one else knows about you.'"
"Is there something no one else knows about you?" I was saved answering by Charlie and Alan walking in.
Don's POV
I wanted to know what secrets Megan was hiding from me. I was her friend. Wasn't I? Friends aren't supposed to keep secrets from each other. Right? Charlie interrupted my thought process. Not that it was a happy one that I enjoyed. "Don, Colby called and said that you weren't answering your phone. He and David wants you at the office."
Right. I had turned it off so I wouldn't be distracted while checking on Megan. "Did he say why?"
"He said he'd found something rather interesting."
Okay then. "Right." I looked at Megan as Charlie walked out and smiled. "Get better soon. It's weird not havin' you around."
Megan smiled back. "I'll try."
Megan's POV
I watched Don walk away from my bed when a thought popped in my mind. "Don."
He stopped and turned around. "Yeah?"
"Is Colby okay?"
Don came over and sat next to me on the stiff bed. "He's blaming himself for what happened to you."
I sighed and put my head back on the pillow. "He didn't get hurt too, did he?"
"No. Not physically, anyway." Don gently placed a hand on my arm. "I'll send him over when we get a break. Okay?"
"Okay." He got up. "Talk to you later Don." He made it to the door this time before I spoke again. "Tell him to not beat himself up over this."
Don smiled and walked out, silently closing the door behind him. It wasn't long before I fell asleep.
A/N: I know it has been a really long while since I last updated but I had lost my flash drive and I just now found it. I know this isn't much of an update but I tried...
