In The Eyes of the Beholder

"What?" Carlotta asked, looking at him with surprise.

"What?" He asked back, still holding her hands tight.

"You said that you know that I have nightmares." She repeated, "What do you mean by that?"

"Ahhh~ I do know when you have nightmares. Not all the time but most of the time." He said plainly. "Why? Was that supposed to be a secret?"

"Yes." She said in disbelief. "You never confronted me about it though."

"I figured that you would tell us when you feel ready to." Dor said, "It was not something for me to pry into."

"I am a night owl." He said nonchalantly. "I go to my room at the same time as everyone else but I do not sleep until hours later. I sleep at around twelve?"

"What are you doing until that time?" She pulled her hand away but felt the cold cover it again and she quickly placed it back.
