These days, Matt's touch didn't shy like it used to. Because even though the beating of Kate's heart had always rushed when Matt had dared to explore her face, he used to avoid her supple lips. Now, Kate puckered them to welcome his touch. A touch that had earned much more freedome, enough that it had already explored every inch of her body.

Her heart fluttered once more as Matt shared what Kate had already figured. Maybe they wouldn't have much control of it and this wouldn't be a dream date. But simply watching Matt as her consciousness allowed him to see everything she saw every day... Every picture in her memory. Would she be able to control that too? Would she -- ?

As the familiar words slipped off his tongue, Kate's attention shifted from Matt to the room up the metallic stairs. Up there in the drawer, the jewels with Morpheus sand in them waited.

Was his magic somehow already reaching them?

Her attention fell on Matt again.

For a moment she said nothing, almost waiting. Watching him to see if anything had changed, wondering if she was even awake now. Yes. Yes, Matt felt real. "It'll be perfect. I'm sure we can... Being in contact with anything that belongs to Dream gives you a little awareness of how you're standing in his realm." Kate explained. "I'm sure we'll be able to direct our dreams how we want them to go."

Because honestly, the last thing she wanted was for Matt to see Fisk's ugly face ruining the mood.

"Let's have an awesome day while we're awake. A perfect date tonight." She cupped his cheeks and leaned in for a deep, lingering kiss. "And meet in our dreams."
