"You won't keep upsetting me" She insisted, tugging on him again. "And feeling are life, so i'm gonna go through them either way"

"Thank you" She said, sighing. She took his hand and refused to let go as she intertwined their fingers

Dakota dropped his hand and crawled over in front of him. She snuggled herself into his arms, whether he wanted her to or not. She smiled in victory before kissing him and closing her eyes

Dakota mentally winced as her leg throbbed, but didn't say anything. She stayed there with him and closed her eyes, drifting off

Dakota slipped immedietly into a nightmare, but she didn't stir. It was the kind of nightmare that kept you paralyzed with the fear of it. She eventually could move, but decided to wake up. She fought against the nightmare until she woke up. She sat up, gasping for air and wrenching out of Nate's arms by accident
