Luke and my relationship has improved and it didn't go unnoticed by anyone. No one really brought it up or asked us about it but I saw the secret glances between David and Ella, the pleased and happy smiles, the knowing looks. It still feels kind of surreal and I half expect it all to be a sweet dream, broken as soon as I wake up.
Speaking of dreams, my nightmares have increased ten-fold. The amount of sleep I could get each night is just lessening. It's the same crap everyday how the Andersons would know better, how they would see me for who I am, how they would leave me, hate me. All a truck full of bull but it doesn't make it any less scary. They're feeding off on my insecurities.
Like Luke said, it's a psychological thing.
That night, after we had cleared out the air Luke mentioned how Grace must be waning the floor with her pacing, knowing his sister well. He had asked if he could call her in and of course I agreed.
Grace had entered the room, timidly, probably not knowing what to expect, but when Luke told her that I forgave him, her mood did a complete 180. Gone was her timid smile, careful steps, thought out words. She bounded towards me and squeezed in the hanging chair beside me. She ignored Luke's worry about the chair not being able to pull both of our weights and instead told me that I should have waited before forgiving him and should have 'made the asshat sweat'.
Luke had shook his head with a fond smile and a half-assed protest. Grace had ignored that and proceeded to tell me all about Luke's embarrassing tales. The older sibling didn't hold back either and soon I was pulled into the 'Anderson' Hilarious Adventure'. It felt so nice, listening to the siblings go on and on about the pranks they had pulled and the mischief they had caused and I almost felt like I was there at that time with them. Grace had a way with words. They were captivating and alluring, making you feel like you were a part of the world she was in.
It felt so nice to snuggle under a blanket and listen to their stories that I didn't give a single thought to the nightmare that I knew was awaiting me that night.
