Who: Grant Ward and Skye Johnson
What: Grant has his first dream. The couple has to figure out how to handle it.
When: February 27th
Where: Their apartment
Grant wasn't used to nightmares. His dreams were almost always pleasant when he had them, but this was the exact opposite of that. It was like a memory, his mother, his father, his brothers, but tilted on its axis. His mother had never been that cruel. Distant, awkward and judgmental at times, but never downright cruel. But this woman had been. The mock image of his mother had left him feeling raw, uneven, as if his entire existence was a mistake. Worse off, she'd been like that with all of them, save Thomas, and had still tried to set up a spirit where there was a competition between all of them for approval. He'd woken feeling off center, momentarily wondering if his family was really that damaged. He'd groped blindly in the dark, the emptiness and uncertainty that had come with the dream only starting to ebb away when he settled a hand on Skye's back.
"Skye," Grant whispered, hating to wake her up but needing to get these thoughts out of his mind. "Skye... I think... It's... what are these dreams everyone talks about supposed to be, do you know?"
He was trying to ignore that sick feeling in the pit of his stomach, but it wasn't really working.
