One hell of a dreamer!

Let's stick together

As the day passed, the night was about to come again. Hitoshi and I decided to leave it be and focus on something else over the day. For me it was to play with some toys that Eri was throwing from a safe distance and for Hitoshi it was to actually get the toy and then play with us. I was still wary and didn't liked being around Eri but it was Hitoshi who encouraged me to do this. She needed us as much as I needed the Yamazawa household. 

Hitoshi: Hey, can I come in?

I was in my room alone after we played quite a while and it was actually getting dark, when I heard a knock. 

Me: Yes, please come in.

Hitoshi: Thanks.

Me: What's up?

Hitoshi: I thought you might want to have some kind of emotional support through the night....?

Me: I would appreciate it.

Hitoshi: Me too.

Me: How is Eri?

Hitoshi: Fast asleep, I can hear her snoring.

Me: And Inko?

Hitoshi: Gone... we are on our own.

Me: What about RG?

Hitoshi: Couldn't contact her.....  I just want this to end. I can't even believe that this happened. Eri is with us for a long while now.... never did this happen.

Me: It was dormant... her scent is getting stronger... can you pick it up by now?

Hitoshi: Not yet.

Me: But you believe me, right?

Hitoshi: I am. Especially after yesterday.

Me: Shall we try sleep?

Hitoshi: Are you tired?

Me: No, you?

Hitoshi: Me neither.

We both looked at each other. The big question was what to do now? We couldn't just stay silent and do nothing. It was weird and there was just some tension in the air. I guess we both didn't want this to be true but it surely was. It was not only about me being the one who reported it but me being able to freak out quite badly and then get into a feral state. That could be dangerous. 

Hitoshi: How about we play a game or tell a story?

Me: What story?

Hitoshi: I don't know....

Me: Then what about the game?

Hitoshi: I.... Tick Tack Toe?

Me: Pfff-hahahaha

Hitoshi: Sorry, I came unprepared.

Me: It's fine.

Hitoshi: ....

Me: .... Hm.... How about we just talk?

Hitoshi: Sounds good.

Me: What do you like to do in your free time?

Hitoshi: I am a big reader and you?

Me: I never had so much free time to actually find something I like.... besides sleeping.

Hitoshi: Is it related to your quirk? You were sleeping the whole day after we played together and last week as well.

Me: A bit... I can jump into dreams.

Hitoshi: You mean other dreams?

Me: Yeah.

Hitoshi: Did you see mine? I can never remember it but I feel refreshed each time when I wake up.
