   Mr Gold and Belle ran to her guest room, but once inside they sighed in relief seeing Arthur holding the frightened young woman in his arms shaking. He was trying his best to comfort her. She buried her face in his chest as she cried softly and slowly calmed down.

Sarah slowly calmed down and Arthur brushed her hair back. "You ok?"

She nodded. "Thank you."

"Of course" Arthur handed her a glass of water "you were having a bad dream I think."

"Are you feeling alright now?" Belle asked her, "bad dreams can seem very real."

She nodded, "the Joker and...Harleen...they were hurting me...and Artie." Why she called him Artie?

Arthur looked at her concerned.

"She held you back, and The Joker...he tried to cut...my face like before..."

He cut her face? Arthur didn't notice. Now he looked and did see a small scar one side of her face as if he was trying to form a smile.

"It's alright, dearie," Mr Gold came to her and rubbed her back, "it was only a nightmare. He won't come for you, and neither would Harleen."

Sarah sniffled and held Arthur's wrist tightly since she was scared.

"You do know, Belle and I wouldn't let anything happen to you, right?"

"I do..."

Mr Gold comforted her and kissed her forehead, "you try to sleep, ok? If you need us, Arthur is just down the hall, and Belle and I are just across the hall."

"...ok," she nodded and then Gold and Belle went to their bedroom.

Arthur was about to leave, but Sarah pulled him back. "Please don't leave me...and George. I'm scared..."
