*As she glanced in the mirror, all the color ran out of Sylvia's face. She paused for a moment, not understanding, then rushed to the vanity. There on her chest, were more red marks, one emulating a stab wound as well as several spots in the places she had been burned. Her eyes rolled as she felt light-headed.*
"Oh no...not this..."
*She promptly fainted.*

"Sylvia!"
*Cursing under his breath, Crane attempted to wake her*
Does this mean that what Mondego did to me was real?

*Her lashes fluttered as Sylvia came to. She lowered her gaze instinctively.*
"I...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I just...I don't even know how this is possible."
*She forced herself to her feet, making her way to the bed and sat on it, muttering to herself.*
"Maybe something psychosomatic..."

"He did it to you in the dream, I imagine."
*Crane sat down, putting his head in his hands*
"Oh god..."

*Sylvia quickly forgot her unease and cradled Crane gently, her hand touching his face gently. It was so strange to see him like this.*
"Jonathan, what is it? Do you feel ill?"
*She stood to urge him to lay back on the bed.*

"I'm fine. I just..."
Damn him.
"If it was real...both our dreams..."

*Sylvia just stared at him for a moment.*
"I'm not sure...but he's dead. I mean....Dracula is one thing..."
*She lowered her eyes.*
"If that's true..."
*Her face grew cold.*
"There may be other complications."

"I'm sorry, I'm feeling a bit sick. I think I need some air."
*Crane went over and opened the window. He looked down below, trying not to become dizzy*

*Sylvia grew even more concerned, following him to the window. She stood behind him, squeezing his hand gently. She pressed her face gently against his back.*
"Jonathan...do you need something? Water?"
*She sighed softly.*
"You know you can tell me anything. I won't judge."

"I just..."
*He went back over to the bed*
"It's horrible what he did to you. And you know that you're more important to me than life."
*He sighed*
"But I don't like thinking that the...things he did to me were real."

*Sylvia took his head in her hands and kissed him tenderly.*
"Darling...please...I'm here for you. I love you, let me comfort you if I can."
*She brushed his hair out of his eyes.*
"The one thing that I've learned about dreams recently is that no matter how bad they are...there are certain things that just aren't real."

*Crane reached over and kissed Sylvia deeply*
"I love you, Sylvia. We were wrong to seperate, even if we thought it was for the best."

*Sylvia smiled and kissed his forehead gently before straddling his lap and wrapping her arms around his neck. Her eyes searched his, lovingly.*
"So...you'll let me stay? Even with..."
*She lowered her gaze.*
"...the complications?"

*Crane ran his hand down her back, pulling her closer to him*
"Even with the complications."
*He smiled*
"At least this way we can wake each other up."

*Sylvia's eyes lit up in a way they hadn't in a long time. She even let out a slight laugh and pulled him into a deep kiss.*
"There's no one I would rather wake up next to."
*Her fingers fell gently to the buttons of his shirt as she sucked on his lip.*
"It feels like I've been away from you forever. Like I'm coming home. To you."
