Jack hesitated, then followed quietly. What was happening? He suddenly remembered what he'd seen in the hall before, the shadow attacking him. He was in shock. He hadn't even been asleep and he'd had a nightmare? "Professor, I'm sorry. I thought I only had them when I'm asleep..."

Dream looked after them nervously. She looked up at Luke, wanting someone to reassure her.

Luke saw Dream looking at him and felt a knot in his stomach. He smiled and touched her shoulder assuringly. "It'll be ok." He wanted to follow. He wanted to be with Jack. But why? Jack was an annoying little emo, who cared about him? He sighed. "Everything'll be ok."

Dream breathed a sigh of relef. "Thank you" she said. "Lets clean up this glass. THat spirit must have been a mutant - no ordinary spirit could have done this."

Not wanting to help at all, but most certainly not wanting to leave Dream with Luke, Pearl began picking up broken pieces and carefully disposing of them. "I hope he'll be ok..." she looked at the door, genuinely caring for the well being of Jack for a moment before turning her attention back to Luke.

Dream turned to Pearl and just asked outright. "Do you like him?"

"Who? Jack? No. I mean...as a friend yes, but I don't like him." her eyes turned to Luke. "But him..." she grinned, looking Dream in the eyes and whispering but not so low that Luke couldn't hear if he wanted, "I don't just like him. I want him."

Dream looked up at Luke. She didn't know what to say, but she hoped he would. Either way.

Luke had been preoccupied with the tiny splinter of glass he'd gotten stuck in his index finger. He plucked it out and hissed, then glanced up and saw Dream staring at him. "Something wrong, love?" He smiled and continued to clean up the glass.

He hadn't heard her. And he'd called Dream love. Was that just him or a term of endearment? She looked down, actng as though she'd said nothing at all and continued to clean.

"I asked Pearl if she liked you, and she said she didn't just like you, she wanted you. And I looked up at you."

Luke glanced up at her, mouth slightly agape, before he caught himself and shut it. "Oh... I... I see." He grinned, the result of years of hiding his thoughts. He held up his finger in explanation. "Oi cut meself. Oi'm gonna go t' me room and find some bandages..." He was shocked to hear his hard-smothered accent creeping back. He held the facade and went to the stair, forcing himself not to run.

Zombie just watched everything as she tried to calm the little girl in her arms down. She didn't agree with Dream though. Mutants usually had a different sense about them then Humans did. She shook her head as she walked away, the girl still crying and Zombie still crying. She would have to find a way to cheer the girl up and get her to move on. She was miserable here.

She looked at Dream, not sure if it was a bad thing or a good thing, then turned, taking a different route than Luke back to her room.
