Coen: *opens his eyes, sitting up*

The window to his room still open bitter fall air blowing in from the night

Coen: *sighs, standing up*

Madi: *standing by his bedroom door* so you didn't drown after all

Coen: *flinches, whispering* madi what the hell!

Madi: sorry sorry, just thought I'd stop by. After all you did leave the window open

Coen: *shakes his head, closing the window and locking it* get out of here Madi

Madi: why should I go? Don't you want me here?

Coen: no I don't, Not anymore. *Gives her a cold look, walking back to his bed*

Madi: look at night *runs a finger along his jawline* so protective yet he has no idea what's happening

Coen: Madi go! You don't know anything anymore, absolutely nothing.

Madi: I know you have a secret you aren't telling. One that could really hurt the closet ones to you *walks over to Coen* and I know you want to tell him

Coen: you don't know anything! Unlike you I don't keep secrets, I don't need to.

Madi: see coen, just like me everyone keeps secrets. Even if they are little tiny ones.

Coen: *head shake, running a hand through his hair* just go Madi

Madi: I go when you tell them

Coen: Madi go!

Madi: tell them!!! *Grabs coens wrist tight*

Coen: *winces, looking at his arm* how did you-

Madi: *smirks, leaning down* some secrets are worth keeping Coco.

Coen: *breathing fast, trying to break her grip* let go Madi

Madi: I can't let go until you let go

Coen: *tears up* Madi just stop, just let me go!

Madi: let your secret go Coen

Coen: *crying now* Madi please!

Night: Coen! Coen!

Coen: *shoots up, breathing heavily*

Night: *puts a hand on coens jawline* are you ok? Hey Coen are you ok?

Coen: *looks at his wrist, then to night* I'm ok.....im ok

Night: *kisses coens head, pulling him into his arms* another nightmare Coen?

Coen: *trying to calm his beating heart* it's ok night I'm ok

Night: Coen I don't think you are *runs his fingertips up and down coens arm*

Coen: I promise, it's just a dream, nothing I'm not used to.

Night: *worried, kissing his head once more*

Coen: *exhales heavily, relaxing into night* did I wake you?

Night: not at all, I don't sleep Coen Remember? *Covers Coen with a blanket*

Coen: right....hey! Isn't not sleeping worse than nightmares?

Night: nahhhhhh *head shake*

Coen: *head shake, laying his head back*

Night: *smiles, holding him tighter* Coen?

Coen: yes night?

Night: are you doing ok? I mean obviously things aren't great but you seem different
