Derek's POV
Kate and I had moved to her bed and she almost instantly fell asleep. Neither of us had slept the night before and I knew she could sleep until 7:30 or so and we would still make it to the airport before 8. She started moving around a bit and making noises. She was having a bad dream about Michael. I'd realized that if I woke her in the middle of one of these dreams that she would just fall back asleep and pick up where it left off. It was better to just let her work it out and wake up unless she was struggling too bad. Her head was resting on my chest and she was gripping my shirt with all she had. Her knuckles were white and if she didn't wake up in the next thirty seconds I was going to wake her up.
"No, not Derek."
"Don't hurt him."
"Leave me alone."
