"No...!"
Sabrina's loud scream woke Atticus, who was sleeping on the couch. After the argument they had yesterday, they decided to avoid each other.
Atticus stood up from the couch before walking up to Sabrina, who was already awake, with the blanket wrapped around her body as she shivered.
"What is it? Do you think you are the only one sleeping in this room?"
His cold voice made her raise her gaze to meet his golden-crystal eyes. "I had a scary nightmare," she informed, her voice barely audible.
"Scary?" His attention piqued, he walked up to her before sitting next to her on the bed. "What was your nightmare about?"
"I...I..."
Seeing how she was stammering, he placed his hand on her shoulder, urging her to relax. "Calm down and explain. Don't be afraid, it is just a nightmare."
