It has been a month since kate fell down the stairs. Her arm healed just fine. We went shopping and she got some clothes. We got her all settled in her room but something has been off lately. Every night she wakes up screaming and crying. I am really starting to worry about her,and i never worry about anybody ever.

I am sleeping in my bedroom when i hear a loud peircing scream. Like louder then the annoying petty chearleaders screaming in a horror movie. Then a loud thud and silence, absolute silence. I rush into katherines room and i see her cripled in a ball on the floor crying. I go to ask her if shes ok but when i come close she looks at me with a terrified expression.
"I'm sorry did i wake you"
she has tears in her eyes and i cant bear to see her like this.
"No i was awake reading"
"im so sorry i had a nightmare"
"i know its ok, come on you can sleep with me in my room"
When i go to pick her up she flinches a bit but soon falls asleep. I softly lay her down on the bed as i lay down on the other side. She turns to me and starts snuggling with me. For a second just a small little second i forget about my past. All that matters to me is her.
