"How'd it go today?" Skull asked Raven when she got to his house. Bulk had to work the next morning so he went to bed early.
"Jack and I fought, over stupid things, but it was better. I think Piper will really help us," she admitted.
"That's good, we got the ring finished," he said.
"What's on your helmet?" she asked in seriousness wondering what kind of genetic mutation it gave him.
"It looks like wavy lines, let's be real here," he laughed.
"That's what I felt about mine too, wasn't sure what it could be, but photoumbrakinesis makes sense," she mentioned.
"Hopefully I can figure it out soon to help us fight Lucifer, and hopefully with a much less confusing kinesis name," he joked.
She nodded in return.
"You look tired, want to go to sleep?" Skull asked as she yawned.
She nodded again, "This time I brought some clothes." She went to the bathroom and changed into her pajamas. It felt weird, but this place was starting to feel like home, at least more than her dorm room felt.
When she came out, she grabbed his hoodie from the chair.
"Thought you brought your own clothes?" he cracked.
"It's cold."
She went to the guest bedroom and tried to get to sleep. Her mind was on the events of the day, but eventually she drifted off.
'Moving through the shadows
Using the dark to move
A figure in the distance
Tommy, falling.
Darkness consumes her mind
Lucifer, coming at her,
Striking her friends
Slicing through her chest.'
She opened her eyes and screamed. A light appeared from her hand and she assessed her location; still in the guest room. She quieted her breathing to not wake the others, but as soon as she did Skull was already at her door.
"What's wrong?" he asked worried. He could see the outline of her face from the light in her hand.
"Just nightmares, sorry for waking you," she apologized quietly.
"Did you want to come to my room, in case you have more nightmares?" he suggested, "I know how bad nightmares can get."
She nodded and rose out of bed. She kept a light so she could see where to follow him. She climbed into the side opposite him and pulled up the covers.
"Thanks," she whispered before putting the light out.
She fell back to sleep quickly, knowing someone was there with her. She didn't have any more nightmares that night.
She awoke slowly, feeling someone cuddled next to her.
She opened her eyes and quickly moved back to the other side of the bed.
"Sorry," she mumbled.
"It's fine, I wasn't awake long," Skull smiled, "You are cute when you sleep."
Raven blushed, "So are you," she reached up and kissed his cheek before getting out of the bed.
