I sniff, pulling the cover up over my head.
Al got up with the kids an hour ago, I usually would.
I had another dream..

𝐈 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚,
𝐀 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐡𝐨𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐀𝐥,
𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐝 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐬𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞,
𝐈 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤, 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐀𝐥 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝.
"𝐛𝐚𝐛𝐞?"
𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐫, 𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐬.
𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐤𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐭.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐤𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐭, 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭.
"𝐍𝐎!" 𝐈 𝐜𝐫𝐲, 𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐚𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐭, 𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐥𝐬 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞.
"𝐀𝐥.." 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐦𝐲 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞, 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞. "𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐞.."

...

I rub my eyes, exhausted.
How can you sleep all night and still not feel rested in the morning?
"Dear?"
I dont move, as Al climbs into the bed and pulls me into his lap.
"Tell me what's wrong.."
I shake my head, laying limp.
"Dear..there's something going on and I just want to know.."
"It doesn't matter."
Im so tired. His touch so comforting I can feel myself dozing off.
"You know, my mama used to tell me, Le problème ne détermine pas la solution. Les actions le font." He pulls me close, running his finger up and down my back. "Our problems don't determine our solutions, it's the actions we take to solve them."
"Are you trying to give me a life lesson right now."
"Is it working?"
I look up at him, not sure what to do.
"I get it, mon roi, I do. You're scared, it's just..I don't like seeing you hurt."
"If I tell you, will you tell me what rosie called about?"
"You remember that, huh?" He sighs, "I really, really, don't want to, but if that's what it'll take."
...
I sit up, climbing into his lap.
"This angel thing is really bugging me."
He nods.
I look down at my hands, picking at a nail.
"You were stabbed.." my voice cracks. "Angelic sword. You weren't coming back.."
He holds me by the waist, just staying quiet.
"And it was to late."
One of his hands cup my cheek, wiping the tears.
"I don't think you understand how much of a fight they're going to have to put up to separate me from you."
I laugh a bit, resting my forehead against his.
"I love you."
"I love you too, your turn." I say, looking at him.
He takes a deep breath.
"Vox got out."
