I like to think of them as OUR arrows

Sometimes Kate couldn't help but worry. Because with a sleeping schedule as messed up as hers was, sometimes sleep could be elusive. And while she had the privilege of being able to oversleep plenty of times, being up early sometimes could be tricky. Specially on the nights when the clock ticked and she couldn't help but start counting. Wondering how much time she had left before she finally passed out.

Thankfully, Matt's words did bring her some peace of mind. She did feel Matt's breathing go even as her head rose and fell slightly along with his chest. Sammie woke up at some point and moved, curling between Matt's legs. And eventually, everything went still.

Quiet and dark, until it wasn't dark anymore.

The room was wide, lit up even though she could tell it was night time. Lucky was somewhere curled into a couch, Kate did not need to look out for him to know about it Nor did she recognise the apartment, even if some art pieces sounded familiar, some posters even more so.

Their bedroom in the waking world was quiet and dark. Until both amulets lit up.

Kate, in her dream, remembered. She looked down at herself, she was in her normal clothes. Ripped jeans, a t-shirt. But the amulet on her chest? It felt heavy enough, it pulled her out of that hazy state that dreams encourage.

She remembered.

"Matt?"

Even though Kate looked around, she couldn't find him. She called his name, wondering if Matt had somehow woken up. Maybe they had done something wrong? Perhaps they should both have stated their consent before passing out.

Kate stepped out of the apartment, taking down some stairs that were similar to the ones at her loft. But, the one thing that was certainly not like home? The city. That was nothing like New York, certainly nothing like her neighborhood. The city felt older and warmer. Darker, like it was even later at night than she'd realized. But everything glowed as if they were surrounded by candelight.

And there he was. She spotted him straight away, in the middle of the crowd.

"Matt!" Kate waved, trying to get his attention.
