[ She tugged at him until she pulled him to rest against her, pillowing his head against her chest and taking his arm and draping it over her waist. She wrapped her own arms around him, one stroking his shoulder and the other softly carding through his hair. ]
Bad dreams, strange dreams, whatever comes for you, you send them to me. [ She nodded and gave him a gentle squeeze. She'd had nightmares, terrors sometimes, with the deaths of her parents and then her husband, with the loss of Sam. She'd hardly slept a therapist gave her something that made her just want to sleep all the time. But she had the boys and the boat and the business, she couldn't afford to be numb. So she worked through it, she saw that same feeling in him. ]
And you're welcome here as long as you like, you know that right? Doesn't have to be like this if you don't want but this is a home for you as much as Sam and me and the boys.[ And home meant safe, at least to her. ]
