annalise winds herself up for a conflict that never comes. he doesn't stop her from taking his hand, relents to the gentle persuasion of her fingers in the spaces between his own. her anxiety quiets to a whisper, humming in the back of her mind, only speaking up once he tells her to go back to bed. alone. the suggestion tumbles around in her head until it smooths into punishment for a would-be quarrel. [break][break]"but what about you?" [break][break]she holds his hand a little tighter, uncompromising.[break][break]"i could stay up with you."

"you sure?"[break][break]

but as his gaze falls on the dark and empty bedroom behind her, on the large bed that suddenly looks as though it's made out of rocks, he realizes it's less about sleep and more about not wanting to be alone.[break][break]

he realizes he doesn't want to stay up by himself either.[break][break]

returning the squeeze of her hand, he asks:[break][break]

"want to go for a walk with me?"[break][break]

annalise nods, certain. she had been stolen out of her bed with roommates just down the hall from her; she doesn't think she could fall asleep alone if she tried, even if he's only as far away as the adjoining balcony. and if she's losing sleep either way, it might as well be within reach of him.[break][break]he squeezes her hand, a semblance of safety. [break][break]"yeah, sure." [break][break]a couple days ago, manifested on his doorstep like a stray, she could hardly get herself into his house unassisted. now she's pulling his hand, guiding him back through the dark of his bedroom with a familiarity she shouldn't possess.[break][break]"i get them too," she starts eventually, a continuation of prior conversation, a thought she's been stuck on. [break][break]"nightmares like that."[break][break]it's a cruel joke of a traitorous brain to revisit a dank jail cell or feel greyson's slowing pulse beneath bloodied hands, more visceral than a memory.[break][break]"so you're not alone," she blinks down at the path ahead of them. it's a small atonement for doubting him earlier. "and you're not weak for having them."

led back through the darkness of his home, they meander through the hallway, down the stairs, and out the door before starting their walk along the path around the lake.[break][break]

"they were never this bad before. they actually stopped entirely after groudon."[break][break]

but despite their renewed agreement, he supposes grudges are to be expected. he'd just been hoping for something else; something that doesn't make him feel weak.[break][break]

this is his burden to carry, and while he appreciates how she's offering to help, that in itself is another burden of its own—he doesn't deserve any of it. he pushes the thought away for later even if it continues to gnaw at him.[break][break]

"how do you deal with yours?"[break][break]

"really?" [break][break]her voice lilts with surprise. it makes her wonder if the absence of nightmares had just been a symptom of groudon consuming more and more of his mind, rather than some gift granted for being pliable to its influence. she's still thinking about it even as the moonlit lake comes into view. [break][break]"i don't."[break][break]annalise wakes up and panics until she remembers where she is — just as she imagines matias had done before she got out of bed. she doesn't really cope with anything. not well or in a healthy way, at least. [break][break]"well," she rectifies. "i think i get them more when i sleep alone, so i don't."[break][break]a beat, then she confesses:[break][break]"i haven't had one since i came here."[break][break]despite every stressor, she dreams of nothing at all.

that makes two of them as they both fail to find ways to cope. she avoids them entirely, and he does the same even if he doesn't realize as much; he had tried to do the same earlier by telling her to go back to bed.[break][break]

he's glad she didn't.[break][break]

he's even more glad at her confession.[break][break]

"you're welcome."[break][break]

but what happens once she inevitably leaves? how will she cope with her nightmares then? by sleeping with someone else? it's easy to spiral, so he decides to ask.[break][break]

"how are you gonna cope without me?"[break][break]

annalise glances his way, looking at him through the corner of her eye. he sucks the sentimentality out of the night air with his you're welcome, but she isn't upset by it. she prefers it, she thinks, flirting around the subject of their exponentially-complicating relationship. [break][break]she turns her head towards him, regarding him with something more substantial than a side-eye, and laughs out a "thank you."[break][break]and then he asks how she'll cope without him. she blinks, confronted by a thought she'd been shying away from for the past few days. [break][break]"the same way i always do, i guess."[break][break]she lowers her eyes, looking ahead of them. [break][break] "are you worried?"

the same way.[break][break]

what exactly is that?[break][break]

it's easy to spiral and even easier not to try to stop himself from doing so. his mind descends briefly, returning to places he thought were long behind him.[break][break]

suddenly, his worries are no longer contained.[break][break]

he looks away briefly, catching a glimpse of a ponyta in the distance. he assumes it's his, though he doesn't recognize it anymore.[break][break]

"worried about what?"[break][break]

"about me?" she chirps, seeking confirmation from him rather than standing behind her assumption. "and what i'm going to do without you?" [break][break]the lake looks familiar from this angle, even in the dark. he had let her throw him into the dirt around here. and she, for the first time, had seen him from a new perspective. she feels a phantom flutter in her stomach at the memory, accompanied by the smallest stirrings of the guilt she had felt then. [break][break]it comes and goes, stilled by the acknowledgement that she's already gone three days past the point of no return.

"oh. yeah, i guess i am a bit worried about it."[break][break]

worried enough to spiral, anyway, which really means he's worried about it far more than he's letting on. she'd already seen him when he was weak, crippled by something as mundane as a nightmare. she doesn't need to know the depths of his issues.[break][break]

"you don't have to be."[break][break]annalise relents. he's different now, she thinks. not as quick to kneejerk jealousy like he once was. she's needled him enough to know that he cares, but not enough to push him back into a spiral. [break][break]"i'm going to go home," she starts, loosing her grip on his hand. "and snuggle up with my pokemon, matias. there's no one else, if that's what you're thinking."

"you could ...

the logistics isn't the problem. sneaking into her apartment is an easy feat compared to fortified rocket encampments, it's more so about the explanation and justification should he somehow be caught.[break][break]

but is there anything to catch, really? while this thought occurs to him, he doesn't spend enough time on it to realize that he's yet to ask her properly for anything.[break][break]

he will in due time.[break][break]

"i do."[break][break]
