Worrick heard the scream next door and ran outside, a gun in his hand like usual. Nic frowned at his friends behaviour and followed him out

She screamed again, hoping to wake up so the nightmare would be over.
-
Worrick pounded on her door, " Hey! Everything ok in there?" He called. Nic used sign language and Worrick put his gun in the holster and used sign language back to him
-
Nora's eyes snapped open, her breathing hard. She crawled out from the covers, walking towards the door with shaky legs. She opened it, eyes wide and scared.
-
Nic pushed past his friend, seeing Nora's frightened look, " what is it?" He asked
-
Nora rushed into his arms, her hold desperate, her small figure shaking with sobs and fear as she clutched onto his shirt as if her life depended on it.
-
He wrapped his arms round her without speaking
-
She didn't show any signs of letting go, her tears soaking his shirt for the second time that night.
-
" can you tell us what happened?" Nic asked her
-
"It was- it was just a nightmare." But then again she wasn't so sure, she never was, they were always so real, she swore she could still feel the pain when she woke up.
-
Nic exchanged a look with Worrick then looked back at her, " how much medication are you taking at a time?" He asked her
-
She loosened her hold on him, now holding onto his shirt, "1 or 2 a day, why?"
-
" try taking less than that. Sometimes they can trigger intense sleep related hallucinations." Worrick said to her
-
Nora nodded into his chest, "Okay."
-
" You gonna be ok?" Nic asked her
-
"I don't know. I don't think I can get back to sleep though." Her voice shook just as her body did.
-
" it's almost dawn anyway." He said, glancing out the window
-
She simply nodded, letting go and walking back towards her bed, sitting at the end with her head in her hands.
-
Worrick left again but Nic walked closer to her
-
"It was like it was happening all over again." Nora whimpered into her hands.
