Still, she found her voice to speak softly.
"I don't want to hurt anymore. I don't want this dream to end."
I couldn't help it; I barked out one quick, sardonic laugh.
"Oh, love, we both know I'm a nightmare."
Abruptly she stilled under my caressing fingers.
Pulled back to stare at me through crimson, tear-stained eyes.
I rolled my eyes, letting myself feel alive, for just this moment.
"Yes, but... my dreams don't normally talk back."
Dream Edward sounded like he had his shit figured out.
