"I love you too mommy." Once he was seated, Tommy made himself a sandwich with chocolate spread, licking his lips.

She smiled and stroked his hair as Lily got herself a bowl of cereal. Alicia sat next to them and watched. She wasn't hungry at the moment.

In the meantime, Julian was slowly waking up from his slumber. His mind was still a little groggy, and when he opened his eyes he could have sworn he saw Dallas standing in the corner. He let out a short yell as he shot up in bed, rubbing his eyes violently. When he opened them again, he let out a sigh. It was only a towel hanging from the corner of the wardrobe. He rubbed his face, groaning softly.

Alicia heard a yell coming from hers and Julian's room. She made a quick glance at the children. They seemed engrossed in their breakfast. She stroked their heads before standing and heading to the the master bedroom. She stood in the doorway and watched Julian rub his face. She knew what had happened. He had seen something again. She walked over to him and hugged him tightly. "I'm here...." She murmured.

[NoviDome]

He leaned his head on her shoulder, trying to stop himself from trembling. "...This wasn't supposed to happen," he murmured. "Not anymore. Not here. This house is a new start. I can't..."

[Sparkz]

She held him even tighter as she closed her eyes. "I'm here... You're safe. No one can hurt you." She murmured.

[NoviDome]

He nodded slowly, taking a deep breath. After a couple of moments, he pulled away. "...I'm sorry."

[Sparkz]

She shook her head. "Don't be sorry..." She murmured. She kissed his cheek. "I got you."

[NoviDome]

He closed his eyes and nodded gratefully. "I'd just... I'd hoped this would be over by now."

[Sparkz]

She nodded. "Me too... It's okay... Im here. It will get better. Just give it time."
