The bathwater was almost cold by the time she finally was done soaking ? to be honest, she had fallen asleep for a while in the water. She would have felt bad for keeping Lang waiting so long, but she was too tired to care. Over-sized Inn robe was pulled from the door, and she padded out from the bathroom with her hair dripping in a tangled mass down her back. Straight for one of the two beds in the room, Kacey didn?t remove the robe as she crawled under the covers. She just had time to hear the water of the shower turn on before she was sound asleep.
Screams tore through the room, barely two hours later. Kacey sat bolt upright in the bed, and the screams stopped as she woke herself with the violence of her reaction. Lang was already crouched beside the other bed, gun drawn in automatic reaction. It took him a moment to remember where he was and realize the source of the noise. When he did he set down the weapon and walked over to Kacey?s bed. His voice was quiet. ?You okay??
She looked up at him with eyes so wide that the whites showed all around the color. It was several long moments before she swallowed, focus returning from nightmares to reality. ?I? I?m fine. Just a nightmare.? If she said it enough, maybe it would be true.
