Alia fell back asleep.  The time read 5:21.  An hour since the incident.  

Alia twitched during her sleep. She started sweating.

"Alia." I shook her.

"He's coming." She hugged me and cried.

"Shhh.." I traced her back with circles.  "Who's coming?"

"Anthony and Chance, they're coming back...." She cried a bit more.  She sank her head on my shoulder.

"I'm here for you.  I won't let that happen to you, alright?" I said.  Alia nodded her head.  "It'll be okay, Alia." I smiled, kissing her on the head.

I didn't blame her.  That was bad.  Really bad.

"Go back to sleep, okay?" I said.  She slightly nodded her head and nuzzled up against me again.  I fell asleep.

I woke up to sounds.

"They're so cute."

"I ship them."

"Jalia for life." 

I rubbed my eyes and yawned, stretching as a picked my body up straight.  Alia's eyes flickered open, now showing her green eyes.  

I groaned at the boys.

"You can't post that." I snatched Zach's phone out of his hands and deleted the only video.  I gave it back and he fake cried, which made everyone laugh.

"RUDE!" He yelled.  They all flooded out of the room and let us change.

I got up and got a gray T-Shirt and put it over my head.  I handed Alia a hoodie.  She went into the bathroom to change.  I grabbed a pair of jeans and pulled them on.  Alia came out of the bathroom.

"Merry Thanksgiving eve." She rubbed her eyes.

"The boys and I are going to the parade, so we're taking you to Logan's." I said.  "I promise, I'll call you when we get there."

"K." She said.  "Take lots of videos for me!"

"Of course, anything for you." I smiled.
