“It had seemed so welcoming then.” Amy thought to herself as she arose from the chair, wearily getting ready for bed. She pulled one of her husband’s old fraternity sweaters from one of the many boxes that were spread across the room and put it on. Amy laughed to herself as she passed by her reflection in the antique vanity mirror; the shirt hung from her small frame almost reaching down to her knees, and her long auburn hair was piled carelessly upon her head. Another crash of thunder sent her diving childishly to the safety of the king size, four post bed where she pulled the lavish win

Toby paced back and forth outside the door, his mind was racing. How could he have let her do all the unpacking by her self? He knew that she had been under a lot of stress.

Amy curled her fingers around the warm walls of her mug and sipped at it sparingly as she told Toby about her dream. She sat in a daze, reliving the whole experience. She couldn’t remember a time when she had been so scared. Toby’s presence helped her to stay strong, comforting her through the whole thing, reassuring her that it was just a dream. When she was done he kneeled beside her chair and l!

“I’m coming for you.” the words rang through Amy’s head like a fog horn blaring through the deadly silence of a warm summer’s night.

“Damn it! Honey, you’re not going to believe this.” Amy entered the room warily. Toby was sitting on the edge of the bed nursing a bleeding foot. Blood, Amy thought as she remembered her dream once more. She began to run over to where her husband was sitting
