Millicent hadn't been able to go back to sleep. The nightmare had kept her up from the early hours of the morning. She sat in her window seat and looked over at Adair's cot and prayed that he wouldn't wake and that she wouldn't be tempted to kill him like she had in the dream. He'd snuffled a time or two, but for the most part he slept. Millie, on the other hand, drank cup after cup of bad coffee that the house elves made for her. And she watched her journal for anyone to respond. Most were still sleeping. It wasn't until closer to dawn that people started trying to talk to her, and a few friends offered to come and help her with Adair and to keep him company.
Millicent asked the elves to bring some more coffee, some tea, and some more cups. Her hands shook as she lifted her glass to her lips and fresh tears sprang to her eyes. She didn't know what had possessed her. But the dream had really shaken her.
She hadn't had a cigarette since her early days of studying for her Mastery, but her fingers itched for something to do as she waited. She picked up some robes of hers that needed mending and set about doing it, even though it wasn't something she enjoyed doing. She truly needed something for her hands to do.
It wasn't much longer before the floo roared to life and a guest stepped out into her rooms. Millie heaved a sigh and gave a weary smile before she said, "I'm glad you came."
