Pearl timidly approached Luke's door. She hoped she hadn't permenately screwed everything up. Did she want to knock? She wasn't sure. Cautiously she wrapped at the door, cringing inwardly.
She hadn't meant for it all to come out this way. She was just being catty to Dream. True, she did want him, but she wanted him to want her too...want her first, actually. He'd looked so floored when Dream had said it. It wasn't supposed to happen that way at all. Maybe she could at least do a little damage control. If there was any way to repair it, she hoped to find it. She could only hope she hadn't lost a friend...because she feared she had lost any chance she had with him.

Luke started from sleep and froze, wondering what had woken him up. He realized someone must have knocked. He stood up and pulled a shirt on and trudged to the door. He opened it and saw Pearl. He froze, then gave her a tiny smile. "Hi. You ok?" He looked at the clock in front of Jack's room. 5:30 AM. It had only been two and a half hours since Jack's breakdown and Luke's and Door's talk. How could it only have been that long?

"Can...can I come in?" she hated vulnerability, but she knew she looked like a tiny, frightened child there in front of him. "I'm sorry...it's...it's late. You were asleep, weren't you?"

"Sure," He moved aside for her to enter and shook his head. "No." No one could call what he'd been doing 'sleep'. Sleep made you feel better. He was more tired now than ever.

"I wanted to appologize...for before..." she walked in the door, closing it behind her. "I didn't mean it all to...happen...like that..." she bit down on her lip, trying to keep from crying. She really wanted to cry. "I was being catty. I was being a b!tch. I admit it. I tend to be from time to time..." she took a deep breath. "I do like you. But I didn't mean it to happen like that. And...i'm sorry. And I hope we can still be friends, because I really do like you." 'Why do you keep saying you like him? That's not helping,' she mentally chastized herself.

"Pearl." Luke felt bad for her. He was so confused. She looked ready to cry. "Pearl, you're not a b!tch. It's not your fault, or Dreams. It's mine. I didn't know you both felt that way about me. And I still don't know how to react. You're so nice, Pearl, and so pretty. But Dream's so fragile, and so gentle. And If I break her heart, she dies. It's... it's so confusing."

"Which makes it frustrating!" Pearl almost screamed, then slapped her hand over her mouth. "Sorry...I just...Dream knows that all she can die of is a broken heart...and yet still..." she bit her lip again. "She wouldn't even let us talk to her or try to be friends with her because she was so freaking scared of it, but you walk in the door and the rules change all of a sudden!"

"It's not her fault, Pearl." Luke tried to comfort her. "I'd be scared too, if that was my weakness. I don't know why she's letting herself feel like that. Maybe... maybe she doesn't care anymore." Luke knew if he had to choose between dying of a broken heart and spending eternity never knowing love, he'd rather die.

'But why did she have to pick you,' she thought. She could hear him thinking that he'd rather die than live a life without love. "No...I do understand that...and that why in the beginning I really wanted to help her--" she looked down, then lcoked eyes with him again. "I wouldn't want to live a life without love either."

Zombie banged loudly on Luke's door. It was freakin 5:35 and she was trying to sleep and they he was making noise the Bugger! Then she heard Pearl's voice and her eyes narrowed. What was wrong with a life without Love. Zombie made it six years without an ounce of real love and she was fine. This made her more irritated in her tiredly drained emotional state. "Luke if you don't shut the Hell up in there, I'll shut you up myself!" She yelled. Why did she have to end up with her room under his?!?!

Pearl turned to the door, cracking it sightly. "I'm sorry. It's my fault. I couldn't sleep, and I came to talk to him...I apologize. I promise I'll be quieter." she said with a slight smile, tyring to appease Zombie at least a little.

"Jeez, Zombie." Luke snorted. "School starts in two hours anyway, and you were fine getting up at three."

"Or you can leave so I can sleep more. Since you obviously are trying to get some very desperate, very s l u t y action, and I don't want to have to hear it. Keep your s e x to yourselves!" Said Zombie glaring at Pearl. Sh peeked around to look at Luke. "I got up to get Gummi bears then go back to sleep. You think planned on Jack's freak out? I planned on trying to help a scared little girl and getting my skin to shreds by glass? Oh yea. Besides I'm going to skip the first few hours so I can sleep. So I'm not leaving till pearl does. Because I'm a light sleeper and right under you." Said Zombie crossing her arms and tapping her foot annoyed.

"We're not having s e x!" she screamed, appalled. "For your information, it's BECAUSE of everything that happened tonight that I'm even up here! I didn't plan on all of you WAKING ME UP either! I wasn't even awake! I didn't wake up until you were all screaming! So turn about's fair pay B!ITCH!"

"I didn't even talk unless in a whisper except when I freaked at Dream to shut up. So you can bite me H O E bag." She said angrily. All she had wanted were some d**n Gummi bears and instead she got a distraught little girl, a bunch of glass in her and no sleep! What was wrong with this picture?!?!
