In reality it was only about 2 hours. Sam got up and checked her digital clock. Only 5 AM. She looked up, Joey was sound asleep, snoring. She giggled to herself, and felt something on her waist. She looked down to see Joey's arm around her side. 'Don't tell me Joey likes me,' she thought to herself, 'I mean he's really nice, I think I'm starting to like him a little more than Ryou. Oh come on Sam, MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MIND!' she kicked herself mentally. Two boys, gotta choose one. Damn. Hard choice. Joey's brave, and funny, and she respected that.. Ryou was quiet and to himself, like her. But she kinda hated his yami. She looked over to Ryou, who had a white shirt with sleeves that came to his elbows. His sleeves were pulled up, probably because he was tossing. She saw bruises and cuts all down his arms. She reached her hand out slowly to touch his cuts, but at the slightest contact, Ryou jumped and stirred in his sleep, "Hmmm go away Bakura, don't touch me," he mumbled into the pillow. 'It's Bakura, he hits him.. I knew it,' she thought to herself, 'that's why he was crying before, Bakura was probably threatening him. And that would explain his constant trembling.' She just lied there for a while, checking on Ryou from time to time. She jumped when she felt Joey's arm move. He groaned and rubbed his eyes, "Huh what time is it?" he mumbled. Sam looked at the clock, "5:15 Joey, you can go back to sleep if you want." He just shook his head, "Anyone else up yet?" Sam pointed to where Yugi and Yami were sleeping, "Guess they woke up. I think everyone else's still sleeping." Joey nodded, "well did ya get a good night's sleep?" "Not really, I woke up like 3 times in the middle of the night. Kept gettin creeped." Joey put a hand on her shoulder, "it's only a movie." "Yeah I know, but they seem so real, and as the saying goes "Sometimes dreams can become reality" And I keep having the same dream about Michael Myers. I wake up right as he puts his knife to my throat," she shuddered at the thought of her terrifying dream, "And it all seems so real, I'm just afraid something like that's really gonna happen." There was fear in her voice, and a tear ran down her cheek. She was trembling. "Dreams're just dreams, they're not gonna become reality," Joey hugged her lightly, hoping to calm her. "I know, but if you could experience how real these dreams are, you'd be scared too." "Yeah I know what you mean... Why don't we head upstairs and get somethin to eat. I mean to like get our minds off this stuff." Sam nodded and got up, Joey got up too. She tiptoed upstairs, making sure she didn't wake anyone up, and turned the doorknob. As soon as they were about to pass a full length mirror, Sam grabbed onto Joey's hand and closed her eyes. "What's wrong? It's only a mirror," Joey stated. Sam shook, "You ever heard the legend of Bloody Mary?" Joey nodded, "Well a few months ago, when I was in Texas, five older kids ganged up on me, threw me into a bathroom for fun with the lights off and screamed Bloody Mary three times. And I almost got killed," Sam started to tremble uncontrollably. But Joey held her, "It's alright," he reassured her, "I won't let anything happen to you." She looked up at him, "Joey," she whispered. "Yeah?" She stood on her tiptoes to reach his lips. She kissed him gently. When she broke away, he was blushing like mad, and staring at her dumbfounded. "S-sorry," she stuttered. He shook his head, "I j-just d-didn't know y-you f-felt the same way," he couldn't speak straight, "all this time, I thought you liked Ryou." "Joey, I've liked you from day one, I just didn't think you liked me so I didn't tell you," the blonde teen took her chin in his hand and lifted it to look at him, he closed his eyes and lowered his lips upon hers.
