After the sandman was destroyed, Nancy headed to her house, hoping for a good shower and of course a good rest;
She entered her house, along with Ryan, her biological father, who helped Nancy's crew to get rid of the sandman, and save them all, along with Bess

"Okay, now I'll let you take some rest" added Ryan closing the front door behind him as they entered,
"Huh? Yeah... Sure" Nancy added with no excitement because her mind was stuck on the dream-vision she saw with Ace,
"Nancy, are you okay?" Ryan questioned her knowing something was wrong, "I mean you look pretty down,"
"Yeah... All is good..." Nancy begins, "it's just... I haven't slept well for the last couple of days...I might need rest"
"Alright...I'll let you rest then" Ryan added believing in her, as Nancy begin climbing the stairs to her room,
"...and hey... Thank you for the... Help...Bess told us about you being willing to help even though it was risky..." Nancy added looking down to Ryan, and he nodded, "yeah...sure... It makes me feel good to help you in any way... If that makes sense"
"It does" Nancy gave a faded smile, "and hey... Also...Don't tell Carson about today... Don't worry I'll talk to him about this tomorrow morning over breakfast..."
"Yeah... You got it" Ryan smiled with a nod and Nancy replied, "Good night"
"Good night, Nancy" he replied as Nancy headed to her room

Nancy threw her bag over the bed and laid flat next to it, "Ahhh... I wished my life was a little better..." She sighed whispering as she glanced up at the ceiling for a while and got off the bed, she grabbed her towel which was over the chair, and headed to the shower, as she was already tired and the dream experience was making her mind wander all over. She took off her clothes and got into the shower, turned the knob on, and as the water begin to cover her body, bit by bit, begin with her beautiful red hairs, she begin thinking about the dream experience she had with Ace, where Ace was all over her, kissing her neck, and making her moan as none did... And finally living the moment she was waiting for; but sadly... It was just a dream; she touched her neck and took gasped, "...if only it was only real..." She exhaled, "...I wished I could tell you...Ace" she mumbled softly as the water continued to cover her body, finally taking her tiredness off

After the shower, she got into her pajama, with hair slightly wet, and as usual, sat over the desk and opened her journal, she begin writing;

"Today's day was pretty a mess, like all other days, since the haunting by Lucy Sable, my other... And now it looks like this is a new normal for the Drew Crew, to deal with supernatural entities, ghosts, or some weird, pissed killers... And having to face our darkest desires, our truths that we wanna move past us

But the good part was... Ace... I think I'm falling for him more than I think I do. Today when I fell asleep, I had a dream... experience... Or vision, whatever you call it, with Ace, he walked into my room and was kissing my neck, making me feel like heaven... And for once... in a long while, I felt alive... With him... And I even thought it was a dream... I felt better...that he was mine... And then the next moment, I see his heart freezing in his chest, and I felt so scared... The same fear I felt when mom...my adoptive mom died, and... The same fear I felt when Carson told me about Lucy... And what happened at the buffs..."

Nancy sighed as she paused for a while and begin writing again,

I have feelings for Ace... that's pretty clear for sure; But... He... He has Amanda, and that is the only thing I hate right now, apart from the fact that that I can't tell him how I feel, because I don't know how he will react... I don't want to ruin my friendship with him... The only person who looks at me, with all his heart...

But that's another mystery... I can't solve it! Why is Ace so protective... Why does he care so much about me, even though he is in a relationship... Does he feel the same for me? And think that we can't be together because I am the hero of the horseshoe bay and he is..."

Nancy sighed, and looked at the frame, which had her friend circle picture in it, and continued to write;

"...he is a hacker... Does he feel that I'm too good for him, or out of his league...But... How do I tell him that I don't mind who he is...and I accept him the way he is.
Or what if he feels confused... Or unaware of his feelings towards me...?

Something is so not right... And I wished I could talk to Ace and solve it out... But of course, Amanda... I never liked her or will ever... And definitely not with Ace; No, not in a jealous way exactly... but, Something is weird about her perhaps... like she wants something back from Ace in return, And I am hoping Ace realize it before it's too late"

With this, she exhaled and closed the journal and put the cover over the pen and covered her face, and just as she was lost into all these thoughts, her phone beeped and sniffing a bit, she glanced down at it,
It was Ace...

"Hey Nancy, just wanted to make sure you are okay..."

"If you wanna talk, about anything... I'm here...just a call away"
