When the night falls
, the monster screeches as it disappears into thin air.
" Emily wake up, we should get going now", Lucas's voice brings her back from her nightmares.
Emily gasps, she clutches Lucas's shirt like she always does whenever she is scared.
" It is fine now, you are okay", he hushes her like a baby and runs her back tenderly.
Emily looks around, it is truly morning. Does that mean she slept through the night? " I slept, Lucas", she whispers as she can't believe it. " How?", She looks at him as she waits for a reply.
