"Don't be scared," Theodore said, holding her hand. "I'll help you chase those bad guys away."

Rosalie burst out laughing. "What if you're the bad guy?"

Theodore's face stiffened. "Do you mean to tell me that I was the bad guy who chased you in your nightmare?"

Rosalie, wanting to tease him, nodded. "Yes. You were chasing after me with a knife, wanting to kill me. I was so frightened."

Theodore's face turned cold, and he stood up. "Looks like I didn't chase you hard enough. I would've chopped you to pieces straight away."

It was bad enough she had a nightmare. To think she even dreamt of him as a bad guy who wanted to kill her! How terrible was he in her eyes? Then, he was reminded of how she thought he would throw her down the stairs last time.
