The dream started out with Dreamer in a fancy tux. Having already known he dreams about clothes thanks to Emma, I wasn't surprised.

But then the dream changed, it showed Miss Peregrine standing quietly in the backyard, the moon's light making her look like an angel. She raises her head and smiles as a blurry unfocused figure walks towards her. The figure walks into the moonlight and faces her. My breath catches in my throat.

It's me.

I smile warmly at Miss Peregrine and she tuckes a strand of hair behind my ear, a kind, caring twinkle in her eyes. The whole room goes still, everyone looks back and forth between Miss Pregrine and I.

Back in the dream, she gently cupped my face and took a step closer, her eyes gazing at my lips. We both take a step closer, our noses only an inch apart...

And then she turns on the lights.

Everyone groans but reluctantly get to their feet. I sit stunned for a moment until Emma gets to her feet and I grab her arm.

"How could he have dreamed about me last night?" My voice is tight and slightly squeaky. "Along with clothes, he dreams about the future. Why?" "Oh, no reason." But it wasn't no reason, it wasn't no reason at all.
