"Delilah.." I heard her whisper and shake me. I slowly opened my eyes and blinked. She looked at me worriedly. I jumped up scared that something had happened to her while I was sleep.

"What, what happened. Are you hurt? Did something happen." I searched all over her looking for any marks or wounds only calming down when I found nothing on her. I looked at her concerned. "What's wrong baby?"

"You, you were crying and rolling around the bed. I got scared, what happened..." she wondered. I looked at her in realization.

"Oh, um... a nightmare...nothing serious." I tried to play off, sugarcoating it. I hadn't had to relive that night for a couple of months so why... maybe I was scared. She looked at me sternly.

"About..." She wondered, knowing I wasn't telling the whole truth. She always knew when I was lying, as I with her. We just knew each other like that. I mean, we've known each other since fifth grade and have been friends since.

"I don't really want to talk about it." I rolled over and tried to go back to sleep.

"Okay... well i'm all ears if you decide you want to talk about it. Goodnight." She snuggled up to me, whether to comfort me or herself, I didn't know.

"Goodnight..." I dragged out knowing I wouldn't go back to sleep for the rest of that night.
