When Damian came out from the room, he noticed that the scream was coming from Darell's room.

He debated within him whether to go into Darell's room or to ignore his screams. After all Darell had told him repeatedly to stay out of his business. 

But, what if Darell was in trouble? it was his job as a bodyguard to check on him. Damian decisively walked to the door and opened it. 

Darell was on the bed, thrashing around wildly. He was having a nightmare. 

Damian shook him lightly, "Darell wake up, it's just a nightmare" he said gently so he wouldn't startle him. 

Darell clutched on to Damian and jerked awake, he looked around the room wildly, his eyes were filled with terror. 

Damian noticed that he was shivering. He drew Darell into a hug. 

"It's okay, everything is fine now, no one is going to hurt you" 

Darell looked up at him with fearfilled eyes. "promise?" 

"I promise" Damian replied.
