Elie woke up due to his nightmares, unending nightmares, they kept him awake all night.
He sat up swinging his feet to the ground, hands up to his face, he rubbed in frustration and ran his fingers through his hair with a sigh.
He turned around stealing a little glance at a sleeping Christy, and the corner of his lips crack in an effort of a smile.
He got up and head to the bathroom going to shower. Though it was just four in the morning and everything seem freezing, he had stayed under the cold shower trying to wash all bad thoughts away, only if it was that simple.
He got out of shower and quickly clean up only to find Christy out of bed. She was no where in the room, already he was feeling bad for putting it on her.
