He hasn't had a dream or a nightmare in a couple of days.
He doesn't know why but he isn't complaining.
He can still smell the fire, still feel it burning his skin.
He saw her for real today.
Just a glimpse.
She didn't see him but he saw her.
She is more beautiful than he had thought she was.
He wants to go to her, but can't.
The nightmares hold him back from going to her.
He is afraid of what her family will do.
So he will have her in his dreams and nothing more.
