Every night is the same
'Why do I always need to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night!?'
Every night I have to go to the bathroom or get some water to drink
'How does Lanni sleep comfortably in that position?!'
Every night Lannion finds some weird position to fall asleep in
'Why is Emma Shaking?'
Every night was the same besides tonight
"H-hey Emma are you okay?"
This was one of the last 'normal' nights I had for a long time
A very long time

"Huh!?" Emma asked turning her head toward me quickly "Emma you were shaking and sweating in your sleep, nightmare?" I asked her, looking at her with pity in my eyes 'Emma never get nightmares, if she did she would make a big deal about it the next morning' I thought, debating if I should rub her back to comfort her or not "Y-yeah, just a nightmare." She responds hesitantly, trying to catch her breath "You wanna talk about it? When the kids usually have nightmares they talk about it with me, o-only if you want to though." I asked her, studying her facial expressions 'She's panting and sweating, she must have had a bad nightmare' I thought, deciding to rub her back in an attempt to comfort her "U-um no thanks but can I ask you a question?" She asked me, fear visible in her eyes "S-sure what is it E-Emma?" I responded, afraid if she was going to ask why I was rubbing her back "Do you know a flower that looks like this-" She started "It had a long stem and has clusters of other red flowers. Do you know any like that?" She asked me with fear in her voice 'Why does she sound so scared about asking me about a flower?' I thought, trying to think of a flower that would fit her description "Well there's this one called 'The spider lily' That fits your description, Oh! And there's this other one that's called 'Lycoris' that is similar, why do you ask?" I responded to her, questioning why she would ask me about a flower after a nightmare 'Why would you need to know about a flower in the middle of the night after a nightmare?' I thought, waiting for her response "Oh I just wanted to know since I saw a similar flower out in the yard earlier. I didn't have a chance to talk to you." She said, calming down from her distressed state she was in earlier 'Yeah she's definitely lying, she must have a reason though, I won't bother any further' I thought, standing up from her bed "I'm going to the bathroom, call me if you need anything." I said to her, smiling warmly at her before heading to the restroom. 'I really need to pee now!'

"Good morning!" Phil said, running around the dining hall with his arms in the air behind him
