Cameron woke up with his body sweating. His wife was gone. He got up and ran only to find her making a pot of coffee. She went to take a sip of coffee and he knocked it out of her hands and kissed her as hard as he could. She embraced him. "What happened that you're so sweaty Cameron?" He just shook his head and hugged her. Then he started to cry. She asked again because he's never acted like this before. They spent an hour standing in the kitchen in silence.
He finally said he had a nightmare that someone killed her. She paced back and forth and made a decision to take him to a physiologist.

She held his hand and refused to leave him by himself. And he refused to talk. The psychologist sat, fiddling with his pen for 15 minutes and started to ask questions. Cameron started to talk and the physiologist took notes. He concluded that Cameron doesn't feel that people don't love him the same way so when he predicts all of these nightmares and bad things happening it hurts even more.

Camille and Cameron walked home in silence. Once he closed the door she pressed against his warm body and kissed him like she never had. They kissed all the way to the bedroom. When they were done she started to tremble and he covered her with the blanket. She fell asleep repeating "I love you."
