The night air is cool in Drysdale. Soft rain hits the metal roof of the warehouse. Soft squeaks from a nearby mattress echos in the hallway. Katie lies in bed wondering why Rebel quit bunking with her instantly. To the blonde, it had felt like the sleepover she never had. Exciting and fun. But Rebel obviously didn't see it as so.

Katie tosses and turns in bed at the sound of the rain dropping on the metal roof. Her mind hasn't been the same since Lebedev tried to come at her with a dagger. She had never experienced as much violence in her entire life as she had in the past 60 hours. It all still terrified the blonde.

Is this the worst it will get? Does it get worse? Will I have to do something to become one of them? Katie suddenly gets thought, her green eyes staring at the metal roof above her. And why is Lane keeping me alive? I hold no real value to him or his lifestyle. Like Lebedev has said, I stand out like a sore thumb.

Katie rubs her face as she begins to groan. A squeaking sound makes the blonde jump. She quickly sits up, gasping.

It's probably Rebel. Katie waits for her friend to appear in the darkness. Lola and Frankie probably kicked her out for privacy reasons...

"Rebel, what are you doing-" Katie's eyes widen at the sight before her.

Lane stands there in his cream colored sweater, his blue eyes glowing in the dark. Katie'a body is frozen still. The crime lord slowly makes his way over to the blonde. She watches him as he draws near her.

"L-Lane-" Katie begins.

Lane puts a finger to his lips. He sits on the bed, his back leaning against the metal bed frame. Immediately, Katie lays her head on his chest. Her hand rest over his heart. She closes her eyes as she smiles into his soft sweater.

"Mmm...." Katie hums.

Lane leans down and gently kisses her forehead. The blonde cuddles his chest as he holds her in his strong arms.

Katie grins into her pillow, sighing softly. She kisses the pillow before she opens her eyes. She looks up to see the metal bed frame. Disappointment fills her.

Was it just a dream? Katie's lip pouts sadly, Or did Lane get up and leave?

Behind her, she hears soft snores. The blonde looks over her shoulder to see Rebel laying there on her back with her mouth wide open.

Katie heavily sighs. "It was just a dream."











Hey readers! What did you think? Short chapter, I know, but I wanted to publish this chapter cause even though Lane murdered her Uncle Gail and is going to basically take all of Gail's fortune, Katie is getting something she hasn't had for a long time. No, not love. But she's not the end of a bad joke either. So 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️
