Hazel bit her lip "S-sorry."

Marie sighed, ever since her father adopted Hazel, Marie had learned that the girl sometimes just couldn't sleep. Memories of bad shelters, orphanages and work mills, her sister had gone through quite a lot in her ten years.
"It's okay, Hazel" she sighed "you all right?"

Hazel nodded "I- not really."
She looked down at the floor "I can't sleep."

Marie sighed again, she could tell this was going to be a long conversation. Now it wasn't that she didn't like to listen to Hazel, she loved her sister.
It was more so that it was midnight and she had a meeting in the morning.

She looked up at Hazel "I tried going to sleep earlier but, I had a nightmare" she sighed.

Marie flicked on the side table light still wiping her eyes "Do you want me to go get Papa?"

"No!" She almost yelled, then controlled herself "no."

Marie's eyebrow went up.
"What, what was the dream about?"

"Mr. DeRoux" she looked down at the ground.
Gérard DeRoux had been the man who owned the work house she had worked in before John found her. She'd only talked about him a few times, leaving out some of the worse details, as she'd repressed most of it, but as time wore on and with Marie's help, she'd learned more and more of her own life.
She had been living in an orphanage run by nuns who in her young eyes were truly demons. They'd smack you on the wrist for speaking out of turn, they'd whip you until you couldn't cry anymore for having a thought that wasn't in line with what they thought was proper. So she ran away, at seven years old. By eight she was working for Mr. DeRoux.

Marie felt suddenly awake, she knew the last time she used her powers to read in to Hazel's mind, she saw Mr. DeRoux and immediately hated him.
"What happened?"

"I don't really know" she frowned "he was standing, above me, laughing" she blinked "he didn't have a shirt on, I- I don't think."
The dream was starting to get a little fuzzy as she sat there "He kept laughing and laughing and I was crying and telling him to stop."
