Maeve "Mama?" i crept into the room, my feet silent on the wide plank floorboards bathed in violet twilight, "Daddy?"
Dad stirred, rolling over and leaning on his elbow as he watched me enter the room, his hair ruffled from sleep. He motioned for me to come to the bed, pulling down the covers as I climbed in between them and laid my head against the mattress, snuggled tightly between their two pillows.
"What's the matter?" Mom asked, rubbing sleep from her eyes as she rolled over, tucking her body around mine.
"I had a bad dream," I sniffled, resting my cheek against her arm. Dad reached out to tuck a lock of hair behind my ear before he laid his head back, facing me.
"What did you dream about?" he asked, his blue eyes dark and focused in the dim light.
"I was swallowed up by water. Lots of it." "Well, did you swim?" he replied.
"No, the water was too big. I tried, but I was too little, and the waves were too high over my head." I stretched one arm upwards towards the vaulted ceiling.
"Hmm..." Mom said dreamily, on the edge of sleep. "But you learned howto swim this summer, darling. In the lake" "It wasn't a lake, Mama. It was BIG water."
Dad snorted, his mouth touched with a wry smile, "It was just a dream, kiddo." "There was someone else with me." "Who?" Mom asked, stroking my back with her fingers. Her touch relaxed me, making my eyes flutter.
"Was it Rowan?" Dad smiled, closing his eyes.
"No. But he was probably the one who threw me in,"
Dad laughed shortly, rolling over onto his back.
"It was a woman. She was a ghost, like she wasn't really there." I yawned hugely, sleep settling back into my bones.
"She was there to protect you, sweetie," Mom said quietly, tucking me closer to her chest.l sniffled, closing my eyes, trying not to think of the dream where I had been struggling in empty, bleak darkness miles below the surface of an unforgiving sea.
"I'll take you to the beach tomorrow, okay? Just me and you. We can put our toes in the water. You'll feel better," Dad was barely awake, his voice far away and dream-like.
"Do not sleep, my starling. Sleep, my doe..." Mom sang softly, her voice calming me and making my body submit to the slumber I had been rudely awoken from.
I closed my eyes.
I rolled onto my side, water sputtering from my mouth as my lungs contracted, desperate for air. I inhaled through my mouth, deeply, my throat burning and my mouth tasting strongly of salt.
I blinked into the sun. It was blinding, reflecting off the space around me. I sat up, shielding my eyes from the bright orb as I looked around.
