Lilith, who had been trying to have a decent sleep for once, suddenly woke up with a startle. Glancing at the ceiling as she was back at the pizzeria. Sitting up from the floor before getting on her feet. Glancing down as she was back in a lavender summer dress. Having always loved it as a kid. Feeling her hair in a braid similar to what her father used to do for her.

Her eyes scanned the place before the place was filled with lights and figures began to fill the pizzeria. Hearing kids laughing and playing around. Giving a light twirl as she took in everything before being back to her younger self.

Running down the path as she was playing with some friends of hers. Excusing herself from them and her sister to go use the restroom. Only to stumble into something that she shouldn't have.

Screaming at the sight before her before waking up for real with a scream. Being on the couch as Abby had been drawing in front of her and Mike was in his recliner cushioned seat like usual.

Mike immediately sat up and rushed over to her. He knew her own nightmares were rare but when they happened it made her terrified. Rubbing her back to comfort her. He didn't have a clue what she would see in those nightmares. It was something she didn't want to talk about. Ever. He respected that about her even if it was something he wanted to understand better.

Lilith held onto him immediately before burying her face into his shirt and sobbing a bit. Trying to calm down. It was a bit hard to do since she was pretty shaken up after every nightmare.

"Are you okay?" Abby asked.

"Abby give us some time." Mike replied to her.

"No." Abby spoke.

"Abby, please, not right now. Just go draw in your room."

"Fine." Abby huffed before collecting her things and heading to her room.

Mike watched her go before glancing at his girlfriend. "Want to talk about it?" He asked.

"It was horrible." Lilith spoke lightly as she quietly sobbed. She didn't like crying much or showing those kinds of emotions in front of others.

"You're safe now."

"I saw something I shouldn't have. He was very very mad that day.. I should've.. I couldn't..."

"He?" Mike asked.

"Him.."

Mike wondered if she was talking about the same man he had overheard her talk about with Vanessa. "You can talk to me about it. I'll understand."

Lilith shook her head. "I can't."

"Why not?"

"Because you'll hate me and then you'll be in trouble. Abby might be in trouble."

"Is someone threatening you? Is it Aunt Jane?" He asked.

Lilith stayed silent as she knew about what Jane had planned before nodding. Lying to get past talking about her dream. "She did. I was scared a-and didn't know what to do."

Mike's jaw clenched a bit. "What did she do this time?"

"Something horrible." Lilith replied. Not lying that time since Jane had plotted something awful. "I-i need to make a call."

"Sure.." Mike spoke before he handed her phone over. Unsure who she wanted to make the call to.

Lilith dialed the number Max had given her before waiting for a reply. "Come on, come on." She spoke in a mumbled tone.

"Hello?" Max answered.

"Max. Thank god you still answered. Do not go inside there." Lilith spoke. "Whatever you do. Do not go inside. You will not be able to leave if you do so please just stay out of there.."
