It's been two weeks since the argument with Eddie and things have been going ok, no apartment but your both still hunting around checking papers and the usual things.
You've managed to get a few more hours of sleep thanks to Ed helping you when you need it,  but the nightmares and some sleepless nights are still hitting now and then,it wasn't all magically cured because you were next to him again.
You feel guilty about it when he wakes up because your having another dream and he's losing sleep because of it all,

he doesn't show he's bothered or cares that you wake him up but you can see small things like him falling asleep on the sofa in the evenings which he hasn't done for a while, only recently when you've been waking up at early hours of the morning and disturbing him, which you feel awful about knowing he's tired and you can't help but blame yourself.

Things felt familiar...the car you were sitting in,driving fast down a straight road, the smells of alcohol cigarettes and strong cologne, the "Leaving Hawkins" sign you just passed, again? You've been in this situation before,
and it wasn't a good one, the car wasn't slowing down as you notice the tracks across the road, the engine gets slammed against and you jolt back into the seat, heart racing, Pounding against your chest as you see a train get closer and closer, hearing the tracks shake.

You needed to get out but the doors were locked, why are they locked? Shaking at the handle hoping that it would just open, whoever was driving was intending on getting hit, killing the both of you.
"Let me out...stop the car...stop it...! Let me out!  Let me out! stop!"
You shout but they didn't listen, Driving up onto the tracks as the train was a few feet away, about to hit the now parked car with you inside...

"...yn open your eyes, hey..."
You heard, feeling someone shaking you, enough force you jolted awake with a sharp gasp.
"Hey..hey sweetheart it's alright, it's ok.."

Eddie says calmly moving closer to you in bed as you grip your shirt against your chest trying to calm down, he holds your hands "Breathe with me

Eddie says calmly moving closer to you in bed as you grip your shirt against your chest trying to calm down, he holds your hands
"Breathe with me.."
He tells you and you only manage a nod, he takes a deep breathe in and you copy holding it for three seconds till you both release, he sits infront of you doing this till you get back in control enough to talk.

"What happened?"
He asks softly putting a strand of hair behind your ear.
"I didn't. See who it was. I just know I was in someone's car it didn't feel right...What time is it...?"
You knew exactly who's car it was, Ed looks over at the alarm clock then turns back to you
"2:15...lay back down with me, try sleep some more"
you shake your head "no"  knowing your wide awake now,again.
"No. I'm awake now. I'll just be in the livingroom you have work soon I don't want to keep you awake."
