''Aidan wrapped his arms around me after I had so awkwardly hugged him. He didn't seem to mind as I buried my face into his shoulder.''

"I believe you" I whispered

''"You know you're not a disgrace, right?" He asked''

''"I don't know..." I answered with, keeping my head down as we released each other. Why that felt so good is a mystery to me. I wanted to hug him again, it felt safe, at that moment. I felt better then I had ever had since my parents died. ''

"You're not, really, you're not. I know your family areDragon hunters, but with the help of me and my family, since our families are quite close, we can give you a new reputation, like the queen of the family, or 'la joya' (means 'the jewel' in Spanish)." He kept at it, trying to ease me onto his side

''"I would end our family friendshipif it means you won't be called a disgrace, or a nothing child." He ended up adding''

"Thanks, that makes me feel a bit better" I commented, smiling a little.

The memory was suddenly corrupted by blood-curdling screams. Full of pure fear, it was a constant. I groan, flipping onto my back, trying to shut out the sound. Except nothing could shut out the constant scream.

Stormslicer nudged me, Groaning again I pushed his horn away in annoyance.

"Whoever it is will stop in a moment" I murmured sleepily. He squawked and tried pushing me out of bed a second time. Angry I snap at him

"Go back to bed! They'll be fine!" He huffed, before fully shoving me out. Hitting the floor, with a hard bang. I rubbed my head.

"Ow!" I sat up ungratefully, walking out of the room. The screams had stopped, but low moaning could be heard. Rubbing the side of my face, I listened for a scream. None. Only a distant moan.

Finally figuring out it came from Aidan's room, I hesitate before his door.

''Should I go in? I don't know, it seems kinda awkward going into his room while he sleeps. Right?''

I sit there for a good moment. Arguing with my thoughts about whether or not I should enter. Aidan hadn't screamed in 20 minutes, so I should have left right? That was my plan until Stormslicershoved me through the door. I turn around to protest when I see Aidan, drenched in sweat and his fists clenched. Thrashing around fearfully, as if he was trying to fight away something. Clearly in a deep sleep and stuck in a nightmare.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">My face softens as I tentatively walk towards him, Shadow Cloud (Fluffy Cloud) eyes open groggily, obviously not interested in Aidan's screams. Stormslicernudges her, she only glares at him. Laughing quietly, I shake Aidan whispering

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Aidan. Aidan" He groans, scrunching up his face. I shake him harder

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Aidannnnn wakeup" I groan, his eyes opened slightly.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"What? What's wrong?" He asked innocently

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"You were having a nightmare I'm g-guessing"

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"No, No I wasn't. Just....that was Shadow Cloud." Aidan blamed, obviously trying to play it off.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Shadow Clouds screams sound like a girls" I teased, he scowled

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Was it that loud?"

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Yeah, are you okay?"

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Yeah. I-I'm fine"

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Aidan, your pretty bad at lying."

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Ouch, Hey! Okay okay, it was just..... A nightmare" Was his response, sitting up and scooting to sit next to me at the edge of his bed. An awkward silence filled the room,

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Are you okay?" I asked again, he nodded his head silently.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Do you want a hug?" Aidan responded with wrapping his arms around me, in return, I did the same. Burying my face into his shoulder again, just like I had in the dream; we sat there for a while. Failing to notice Rita, in the doorway, silently freaking out.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">" You guys are so cute" was the first thing she said.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">I froze, releasing the hug, we both coughed awkwardly.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Hey Rita" Aidan waved

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Aww You too are adorable" She gawked again, I felt my face flush bright red. Without even thinking I hide my face onto Aidan's shoulder. A grin on my face, but flushed dark crimson.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Awwwwwwwww, look at you two." Rita began again, Aidan's cheeks tinted pink a little before responding

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Uh huh, just like you and Vix. Vixa is so cute." Rita was the one to blush this time.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"What, We-No- We aren't, a thing"

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Uh huh sure." I laughed quietly, moving my face to look at hers. Both of us blushing out of embarrassment.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Look at her face, you guys areeeeeeee" I half mentioned to Aidan half into thin air.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Little Lovebirds" He teased, Rita scowled smiling a little

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"C'monyou can tell me, Aidan writes his in a secret diary, so he won't spill it either" I teased. He scowled

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"I don't have a diary thank you very much. And yes, I wouldn't tell. Pft diary"

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Only if you tell me if you guys are together."

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"I'll take that as yes" I teased excitedly

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"No! No, No ,No, that was not a confirmation" Rita tried to cover up hastily

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Haaaaa, yes" I laughed, Rita, blushed hard, punching me playfully in the shoulder.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"It so was a confirmation, you little lovebirds" Aidan joined in happily

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Fine Fine, we are a thing. Sort of. But what about you two?" I blushed, nudging Aidan as if to say you do it.

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"If you wanna call it that. Sure we're a thing" I nodded in confirmation. Rita squealed happily

<p style="caret-color:rgb(0,0,0);color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:-webkit-standard;">"Cuteeeeeeee" I blushed, buried my face in his shoulder again. Aidan wrapped his arms around me in another hug. Rita just about died.
