The princess looked up when he asked if he might share the bed with her. It took him asking a second time before it sunk in what he was asking. She moved closer to the wall.<br/><br/>She watched as he removed his cloak and boots, her eyes going to his. She blushed more when she noticed how handsome he was. Crystal quickly hid her face as she slid under the blanket. She closed her eyes and turned toward the wall, but she did not go to sleep.<br/><br/>She lay there, afraid to go back to sleep, afraid the dreams would return. "I'm scared." Crystal whispered. "I'm afraid the dreams will return." She remained facing the wall. "The things that I saw... the things that happened to me... they all happen over and over when I am asleep." Crystal shivered as she pulled the blanket tighter around herself.
