Mount Olympus [8]

Jace

I flash a smile, "Whatever's happening up there."

```
Nic

I close my eyes and keep humming, relaxing as she does.

Rayah

I smile back, "...I'm scared to check."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I bury my face in his shirt, sweating.

Jace

I smile and chuckle, "I kind of am too."

```
Nic

I hold her close and keep humming, swallowing.

Rayah

I nod, "Yeah..."

,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I fall into a deeper sleep, calmed all the way through.

Jace

I nod back and glance at her, sighing.

```
Nic

I slowly drift off, humming myself to sleep.

Rayah

Everything goes quiet and I decide to head up there.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I hear footsteps but ignore them.

Jace

I sit up and hesitate before following.

``
Nic

I wake, hearing footsteps, and hesitate before sitting up.

Rayah

I open the door, sighing.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I stay asleep, tired.

Jace

I stay in the hallway but look in the room.

``
Nic

I blink a few times and look at Rayah, "She's frequent to nightmares, isn't she? Jackie, I mean. Why?"

Rayah

I lean against the doorframe, "Jacks? Yeah...she tells the future in her sleep. Whenever she has a nightmare, or a good dream-- most of them are nightmares, they come to her in flashing Images and come true one day or another," I glance under her pillow, "Or so her journal says."

,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I stir, more images flashing before me.

Jace

I watch Nic shake his head, realizing something as he looks down at her.

``
Nic

No. That can't come true. It's not fair. I stroke her hair back, hushing her again.

Rayah

I study them, wondering what she's dreaming.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I bite my tongue in my sleep and mumble something.

Jace

I lean against the doorframe and cross my arms, watching the three of them.

``
Nic

I lie back down and keep close, giving her my hand but keeping my other on the side of her face.

Rayah

I look back at Jace, shrugging.

,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

My eyes flutter open and I swallow, sighing.

Jace

I flash a smile at Rayah before looking back at them.

``
Nic

I flash a smile at Jackie, "You awake?"
